Last week, the @CA_DMV granted our permit to operate our robotaxi autonomously on public roads. This weekend, we hit the road! It marked the first time in history that a purpose-built robotaxi—with no manual controls—drove autonomously on open public roads zoox.com/journal/public…

The United Kingdom, the Commonwealth, and the entire world are joined together in mourning this evening. HM Queen Elizabeth II served this country to the last. I offer my sincere condolences to the Royal Family. May she rest in peace.

Good point. Thank you. (And very excited about what you’re working on.)

With button presses it is necessary to make a trade off with volume granularity, but it shouldn’t be with voice control. Alexa, volume 1.5. Alexa, volume one and a half. Alexa, volume 15%. Sigh.

My friend and a friend to many, Tom Alberg, has passed away. He was an early investor in Amazon and served on our board for 23 years. Tom was a visionary and also just a wonderful, good man. I was so lucky to have you in my life, Tom. We will all miss you dearly.

I totally agree with this. Whatever your politics is, we cannot ignore the past three hundred years of economic research and understanding. People argue they are on the side of “science.” Let’s use the education we all have. Please.

Ouch. Inflation is far too important a problem for the White House to keep making statements like this. It’s either straight ahead misdirection or a deep misunderstanding of basic market dynamics. twitter.com/POTUS/status/1…

My message to the companies running gas stations and setting prices at the pump is simple: this is a time of war and global peril. Bring down the price you are charging at the pump to reflect the cost you’re paying for the product. And do it now.

Brookesia micra is an unreasonably tiny species of chameleon in Madagascar and possibly the world’s smallest reptile. Scientists say its laughable smallness may be due to evolving on small inlets with few resources. [@NatGeo / Frank Glaw]

As you become an adult, you realize that things around you weren't just always there; people made them happen. But only recently have I started to internalize how much tenacity *everything* requires. That hotel, that park, that railway. The world is a museum of passion projects.

I have this old 2006 BusinessWeek framed as a reminder. The “risky bet” that Wall Street disliked was AWS, which generated revenue of more than $62 billion last year.

Some left-leaning economists & political operatives have been privately critical of Dems’ approach to inflation, much quieter publicly. They want to be good allies. But they do their friends no favors by withholding good advice and, sometimes, tough love.

Opinion | Democrats need more tough love on their misguided economic policies
Allies who have withheld criticism should remember: You do Democrats no favors by remaining quiet.

their best to add another $3.5 TRILLION to federal spending. They failed, but if they had succeeded, inflation would be even higher than it is today, and inflation today is at a 40 year high.

Look, a squirrel! This is the White House’s statement about my recent tweets. They understandably want to muddy the topic. They know inflation hurts the neediest the most. But unions aren’t causing inflation and neither are wealthy people. Remember the Administration tried…
