Jesus considering what I know developers usually put in a "release candidate" I'd try to avoid even being within 10m of one.

I do like the idea that it won’t even be allowed to be sold here because it’s basically a mobile guillotine

It's shocking that it'll be allowed in the US but we all know the deal over there now.

If you want a truck to drive through a crowd of bleeding heart liberal protesters, it’s probably a good choice.
Assuming it doesn’t explode at the slightest knock.

Even if by pure luck the systems they put in place are robust enough to be ‘the centre of your financial life’, as monzo and starling customers know, you need an absolutely massive customer service operation to back that up. You only know how good a company is when something messes up and you can pretty much guarantee they will cheap out on CS. ‘Hi, I have noticed what looks like several fraudulent transactions on my account. Can you help?’ ‘💩’ 'Looking into it'

I'm imagining Musk promoting his new banking service with something like "Register your important information with me NOW to get a chance of me naming my next child after your passwords!"
The depressing part of course is that his followers would love it...

Obvious predictions: - he will insist on all X employees having an account and they will only be paid into that account. - he will not have considered the fact that running an international bank will have massive regulatory implications and will complain about it - it will be based on blockchain in some manner (in fact I’d be willing to bet it will use an newly-created X cryptocurrency and you will have to pay to get it in your local currency)

I can definitely see the first point being enforced.

Company script basically. Late 19th century concept.
While I doubt he will be able to make all employees use whatever currency he decides to use he will:
-Tie performance to usage of his platform and coin
-Pay bonuses and commissions and allowances in it
-Force employees to promote on their own private socials

Just imagine how human bones will shatter when hit by one of these! Pay extra for a hydrophobic blood-repellant coating.

Or how difficult it would be for emergency services to extract you from it in a crash.

Presumably this thing has no crumple zones then? Sorry to dwell on crash related scenarios but I feel they're much more likey to an issue than projectiles that are only shot at waist height and below

Sorry to dwell on crash related scenarios but I feel they're much more likey to an issue than projectiles that are only shot at waist height and below So people are going to crash in these and get the full force transferred directly through the dashboard straight into them. Good times.
