Early in my career I was on faculty at Florida International University (FIU). During a Summer off I took a short stint job at Creative Displays, located at 149 West 21st Street in Hialeah, Florida. The building inside was just as unique as the outside. So many unique spaces for designers, master craftsmen, assembly, and more. Even though I was there short time I landed Music Center Incorporated (MCI) and met Lutz Meyer was the marketing vice president for MCI. Then I landed Burger King (Then owned by Green Giant)
Criteria Recording Studios (Mack Emerman) in Miami, FL. was the premier showcase for Music Center Incorporated - MCI (Jeep Harned). MCI was a leading manufacturer of professional audio equipment, including tape machines and mixing consoles.
Everywhere you look Stanford Medical Center is constructing huge buildings. The construction workers all wear DayGlo orange vests. This morning next to me was a young lady wearing a helmet and a DayGlo yellow vest with the words printed on it, “Design and Planning”
My daughter is an Architect and typically would be one of the folks wearing the DayGlo yellow vests. Even thou she is petite she would be giving orders to the burly construction workers wearing the DayGlo orange vests.
She graduated with a Masters in Architecture program from University of Pennsylvania. Coincidentally most of the Stanford Medical Heart-Lung Transplant Surgeons also graduated from there.
With Father’s Day coming naturally thought of my daughter. Can’t help it.
Musk is increasingly betting Tesla’s future on robotics, along with artificial intelligence and driverless cars, as the traditional electric-vehicle business faces challenges.
Tesla drew attention in October when it used Optimus prototypes to tend bar and interact with guests at a flashy event in the Los Angeles area to generate investor enthusiasm for upcoming products. Bloomberg reported afterward that humans were used to remotely control some capabilities of the robots.
Elon Musk is not an easy person to work for, I think we can all say that with some assurance, and it’s because he drives people hard. He is not satisfied by ‘Oh, we’ll get this done six months from now. He wants it done within the next 24 hours, and that drives his team into a maniacal sense of urgencyl
Musk said he expects to have thousands of Optimus robots working in Tesla’s own facilities by the end of this year.

Perhaps Elon can sell his excess (What he hasn’t already sold to Trump) CyberTrucks nventor to Putin?
