SpaceX raises another $250 million in equity, lifts total to $2 billion in 2022 - August 5th, 2022

That is what I assume, until further notice. I have a hard time believing a single neural network can drive the car and also respect traffic laws etc. Sure, it works in a closed circuit just for steering, like the NVIDIA demos.

Hold your horses a couple more weeks. I am pretty sure you did not.

What about that huge victory lap Audi took in the press with this obviously BS feature that never shipped? Just go read some of the articles, sure does sound like a lot of promising to me from Audi. And then you have Bladerskb which used this Audi press tour to scream from the rooftops how Tesla...

Yes, of course. But the point Lex was making is that there should be no intermediate levels. Just: it needs a human to be constantly attentive vs the human can take their mind off and sleep. There is no such thing as partial autonomy when the system is engaged. It is either autonomous (even...

Exhibit #2 from Reddit: PSA: Tesla support throws doubt on Early Access Program for early FSD purchasers : teslamotors I emailed Tesla support asking about how to enroll in the Early Access Program (EAP), since I was a sucker supporter who pre-purchased FSD in 2018, which according to this...

It's a deterrent against more BS. Everybody here wants FSD to succeed - that is why some of us bought it. The discussion is mostly around bad / misleading business practices.

You realize some people on this forum have root access to their Tesla and can even read some of the code metadata? This forum is the least misinformed.

I like the proposal from Lex: a system that requires user supervision vs a system that requires no user supervision. Two options. That's it.

This just dawned on me... The fact that the EAP+FSD package has (at best) remained at the same 8K price with the re-introduction of the FSD package speaks volumes on the value Tesla itself places on FSD. Do you guys really REALLY think that the software in an actual autonomous car is only worth...

How about that twice better than humans promise?

/r/realtesla is super bearish like /r/teslamotors is super bullish. In no way they are either objective!

That would be some lawsuit!

Sooo... how about that HW3 upgrade for people that already paid for FSD? If new cars get both the hardware and FSD features before they upgrade current owners I will be beyond pissed.

A chaotic market for one sensor stalls self-driving cars | Reuters With the notable exception of Elon Musk’s Tesla Inc, most automakers have said their self-driving cars will rely on a detection system known as lidar. The state of the art sensors use laser light pulses to render precise images...

I offer myself as tribute. First order of business: ban Bladerskb Second order of business: quit Awaiting my coronation.

"Customers who have purchased Full Self-Driving in the past will be invited to our Early Access Program so long as space in the program is available?" WTF??? Even more gotchas now?

The point of the liquid cooling is having thinner cables.

I stupidly trusted Tesla and bought FSD last year. It's like preordering something and the price going down before the product ships, but the manufacturer insists you have to pay the same inflated price while all new buyers get the product for cheap. I'll get over it, but I will not forget this.

More Supercharger V3 info from NetBrown in Reddit thread: "I asked some more details since there was more interest about the details. The liquid cables will actually be much thinner than the current SC cables, the coolant pump is located in the base of the SC (v3 can retrofit into existing v2...

Autopilot now can recognize stoplines : teslamotors - by @verygreen

The total was $579.75

First look at Tesla’s new Enhanced Summon: self-driving in parking lots

I just renewed my tabs. I live in Kirkland and I own a Model 3 Long Range RWD, purchased in May 2018.. From the purchase agreement PDF on my tesla.com account: This is the amount of RTA tax WA DOL asked for 2019 renewal: WA DOL Depreciation Schedule: WA State Licensing (DOL) Official...

Yeah, no reply. They don't seem to want to change it for everybody.

However, this is my reply to them: I can confirm that indeed I received the refund. However, the underlying problem is not resolved. Customers in WA State are still being charged sales tax for charging related products. As I explained previously, this should not happen. Please refer to...

Good news! I can confirm that Tesla has in refunded me the tax I paid for the Wall Charger.

As per the latest AP info from @verygreen, technically you could also attach an SSD to the AP2.5 USB-C port? I wonder if this will be the final solution, but it will require a Service Center visit. Seeing the world in autopilot, part deux : teslamotors

Will go out on a limb here and say that unassisted Level 5 will not happen in the next 5 years. Waymo is at most Level 4.

This is not related to autonomy much. It is a driver's aid.

Here is an update: After contacting Tesla Shop by e-mail twice, and after contacting once through the Tesla account contact form, I decided to go for the nuclear option and the fourth time I checked the "Executive Escalation" checkbox. Within one day they answered with this: "...I've sent a...

Since the Tesla Shop e-mail did not reply, today I sent a message to Tesla about the Wall Charger tax from inside the My Tesla website. Will keep you posted.

We are not disagreeing with the article. See the post just below yours.

The update is that the electrician did mail me a check for the installation tax, but Tesla is MIA for the Wall Charger tax refund. I already sent them two e-mails. I will probably have to call them and waste my time.

In Washington State, if you are paying an electrician to install an EVSE like the Tesla Wall Charger, you should not pay State tax. Please refer to RCW 82.08.816 to check for yourselves. I called the Department of Revenue for Washington State today to confirm this. They agreed I should not have...

If I understand correctly, the network will be available to non-VW cars. So definitely not as forcing Tesla to build another factory. This helps VW competition directly. Especially if said competition sells more EVs than VW in the next few years. That being said, I am quite skeptical about this...

They didn't want to try hard enough because of the July federal limit.

Tesla started breaking the bad news today over e-mail to people that did not make the cut for May and got pushed to July, because of "an unusually high volume of orders". Unfortunately this is exactly what I expected. They tried to prioritize some people but could not go all the way because...

Less than 2 weeks remaining. Good luck everybody!

To follow up on this: I took delivery on Wednesday. During the delivery I called them up on this. They said they only deliver 5 days a week (no deliveries Sun, Mon) and only in those 3 slots (11AM, 2PM, 5PM). I asked the guy why they can't be more flexible this month so more people get delivery...

I just don't understand why on Earth the Bellevue delivery center only opens at 11 and goes until 5 or so, 5 days a week. WTF Tesla? You have hundreds of cars to deliver this month, put in a little effort.

I would be worried if I were you being so close to the end of the month since they miss delivery dates all the time. They tried postponing my delivery a day before it was supposed to happen. My wife convinced them otherwise, we'll see if it worked ... today.

Funny thing. So they assigned me a person in California that contacted me by e-mail. After the first e-mail I did not hear from them. Then out of the blue this morning somebody else calls me... some regional person. So I guess once you finish all steps they might pass you on to somebody else...

My delivery got scheduled. So: Ordered 4/10 VIN 5/1 Delivery in Bellevue 5/9 (hopefully!) Red / Aero / Fully loaded

Sorry I just don't buy it. It seems to me you butted in an existing project and tried to take it over. Your actions are now directly impacting our efforts to track deliveries.

Fantastic takedown of analysts by Tesla Daily: 05.03.18 - Q1 2018 Earnings Report (Part 2: "Musk's Tantrum") - TechCast Daily

Fidelity shows that among their retail customers trading Tesla shares, 66% of orders today were to BUY shares.

Business Insider news article: "Tesla isn't spending enough money — and investors should be worried" "Tesla's newfound capital consciousness is perplexing."

Oh, then it changes things. I read that recently new owners are not getting priority.
