Is that actually true? I know they announced it, but I also saw stories that no one seems to be able to actually find one of these...

Then go ignore it on your country’s version of HN.

Just like any employee you don't get a salary for leaving just because you used to work there.

Yeah, and also just like any employee, you don't get the benefits of ownership just because you were paid to work on something.


The point for me is that "a trusting career" costs far more than it's worth. I would much rather make 3x as much in America with less job security.

That's fine, but different people have different risk tolerances and preferences. There's many people who would never want to emigrate to the USA, and many Americans who emigrate abroad. There's no one country that fits all personalities.

I'm in the market for a car right now, and on paper, a Tesla makes the most sense. I won't be buying one. I'm happy to leave a little utility on the table just to avoid being associated in any way with Musk or his companies. Some might find that "odd", but I really don't care.
