Comments like these are why I read Hacker News :)

Regarding these bets, I'm not sure on which side I'm on. You want them pushing the limits, Tesla itself was a long shot as a company. It's also meant to not just produce electric cars, but to also drive change in other car manufacturers so that they advance towards electric cars and maybe also self driving cars.

However, if they keep piling on the bets, at some point they will go under and I think we still need the company.

Your post makes me believe that they are pushing things a bit too much, like a startup. Yet they are at a later stage in the life of a business, considering their scale. It's like a bank using MongoDB 0.5 in production several years ago.
