It is only a 1 day shutdown. 1 out of the 4 days is a holiday, two are the weekend..

Good plot with long term comparison my piloly (also see the following tweet for more):

In the comments someone says that the a Semi with the same licence plate was in the hands of another company a while ago. That would suggest that it might be news that Costco is testing it (and possibly a new video), but it would not be a recently produced semi. IMHO it is more important that...

Hadn´t heard of him resigning so I googled. All I found to support it is this tweet: So if true (I would still call it a rumour if only confirmed by one twitter source, even if well known) he did not leave Tesla but did switch positions. He still has the Tesla T in his X account and on...

IMHO there is a big difference between FSD and bot: FSD is designed to be used on public roads and has to deal with lots and lots of crazy edge cases that come along once in 10 years or so. To make it safe for those, the training requires tons of driving data because such cases have to be...

He deleted that tweet

But that does not change the positive effect of potentially making more Tesla cars eligible for IRA credit, correct?!

Good one 🤣

Troy does also post good news if it comes along:

Haha, did COVID build cars? Just having the demand is not enough, you also need to have the production capacity - back then they still had to build and ramp factories which they did in an impressive way.

They´re back, 2 supercharger sites went from construction to working, 1 was added as planned. https://supercharge.info/changes

NYT has often been critized here to be anti-Tesla, but in this article (while it is mostly quite superficial) they at least get Tesla´s role in self driving tech right:

Do you have a link to this reddit post? Thanks.

I saw that, too. Last one in EU on the 4/29 also, since then only China. But I think we have to wait for a couple more days.. If there´s nothing new in a week, that would be a differen thing.

More info from the FSD test drice in Germany for a Swedish regulator. Also a video now:

One small good news item:

Yeah, if you look at the linked in thread there are already people from other companies offering positions. Still don´t like the extreme way Elon treats people, basically like they were robots not human beings.

His tweet sounds more like they´ll be slowing down rather than becoming more ambitious :/

I already got a call back after I registered earlier today, they just wanted to know on which day I was coming and at what approximate time. They also 'sold' me a Highland test drive in the process so I can compare to my 2019 Model 3 LR :).

Haha, remember what happened the last few days? Likely just some profit taking IMHO

Seems like the 0% financing they´ve recently been offering (discussed above) is working

Map for subscribers only now, but he has a tweet for every ship on route in the attached thread. Maybe one can then find them on a free tracking site to find out ETA.

It´s coming :)!

Thanks for the heads up, registered for my local event in Düsseldorf, too!

I think the idea is to give FSD a hard problem to solve and see how it improves over time, not to get out of his neighborhood as efficiently as possible. There may be other locations where it is not possible to avoid an unprotected left turn, so it does have a value for FSD being able to...

I like the idea :) (having bought FSD in 2019 and not gotten much out of it but suspense)

🍿🍿🍿 The first tweet has been deleted and replaced by this:

I wonder if cancelling the trip to India (reason: "Too much to do for Tesla at home" IIRC) in reality had more to do with China... My guesses: - Either FSD in China seemed like a higher priority to Elon - or as China likely wouldn´t like Tesla setting up production in India, they used that as...

Hm interesting, seems to continue on the German market :) https://www.tradegate.de/orderbuch.php?isin=US88160R1014

Where would I check that out on the weekend?

In the Q1 24 update letter Tesla wrote: So probably not profitable in Q1 on average. However, they might have already been profitable at the end of the quarter or become profitable any week while on the steep part of the ramp. Does anyone remember at what point in the ramp the other vehicles...

You can even switch between USS and Tesla vision (probably to demonstrate how good Tesla vision is in comparison)!

Now also available for those WITH USS!

Some Sunday fun:

This sounds like a tour to me where they will present the Cybertruck. Doesn´t mean they´ll launch it. Would not make that much sense (except for general Tesla PR) IMHO when they are still very much production constrained in the US alone.

Just read a report of a special meeting on the expansion of Giga Berlin for logistics (mainly a freight station; this meeting is NOT about the expansion of the factory itself (the area for that has already been cleared of trees a while ago). At this meeting they (residents, city council, railway...

If there is no sales tax that is a subsidy, no? Or is Tesla paying the sales tax for the customer 🤔?

The tweet says EAP which is something different than FSD..

China possibly subsidizing their BESS manufacturers who compete with Tesla..

Was posted two above yours 🙄 And as I said above, nothing official at all it all depends on UNECE changing their rules. Will take years until we can have the same as the US :(

This is not at all anything official, just an open minded officer from Sweden informing themselves what FSD can do. Good PR on Tesla’s side, but Sweden as well as the rest of Europe depends on UNECE moving ahead and that will take years still Ian afraid.

😍

Seems like Elons trip was delayed due to politics of Indias election, so likely no negative news for Tesla’s investment plans there: https://www.scmp.com/week-asia/economics/article/3260350/teslas-india-electric-vehicle-plans-track-despite-elon-musk-postponing-modi-meeting Via Sawyer Merritt

Sawyer Merritt: "Typically there is a 90-day post-termination (or leaving) exercise window period where you have to exercise (ie, pay) for your vested incentive stock options or else you lose them." So the timing was very likely not his choice.

Are the expiration dates independent of whether he´s still employed by Tesla? Or did he maybe have to sell once he left?

At least Elon does seem to consider now it according to what he said on the call (that was the first time he mentioned it, right?)
