Am I the only owner in here who has not yet received an invitation? Order placed on the evening of day 1.

Post the original please.
nothing for a few years. Longer term could provide very high speed low cost bandwidth to the fleet. If successful SpaceX could be much larger than Tesla. A global telecommunications company with ubiquitous high speed low latency and cost effective networks.MarketWatch - 17 minutes ago: FCC chairman urges commission to approve Elon Musk's SpaceX application for broadband satellite
How might this affect Tesla?
Maybe they are not connecting my two accounts by name and no bump in the line?
It's Car Wars: SMART (SeMi-Autonomous Ranged Transporters) cars vs FART carsI’d like to put an end to the nonsense of Tesla being valued similarly to companies that produce several times more units.
Not only the “competition” produces vehicles that live in the past, Tesla’s ENTERPRISE value is a fraction of those of functionally antiqued road transporter (FART) makers.
More than half of the ENTERPRISE VALUE of many traditional FART makers is held bondholders, so market cap alone is not an informative comparison.

Not sure what to think of this Tweet from Andrej Karpathy (head of AI at Tesla). Is it also including Autopilot development (as it is using reinforcement learning) ??? :

Here's the link of the article he's tweeting about :
Deep Reinforcement Learning Doesn't Work Yet
@StarnoIt means "3 months maybe; 6 months on the outside" is really 3 years... who could've thunk it?
Im not going to buy a model 3 right now so I'm not worried about it, just curious. Kept one of my two reservations after buying the X just in case, I'll only cancel once the line is gone.
I believe the aspiration it to sell 500k/yr globally, but you are comparing with US only sales.Then you will have a very small market size. Tesla is aiming for what 500,000 a year? BMW M3 sales are well under 100,000 units a year. 500,000 is more than Camry, Accord and Malibu the three largest selling mid-sized sedans. To crack that market in the volumes Tesla needs price is very important. Sure some people will stretch and some have plenty of money, but not 500,000/year.

2) has not acknowledged that human drivers track the center line by sighting off the left front corner of the hood. They don't register the vehicle in the center of the lane. The right side line is secondary information most of the time.
Once they do this:
a) Lane wandering goes away. The car tracks the left side of the roadway.
b) Collisions with concrete barriers on the driver's side do not happen.
Let me pivot this distinction between enterprise value and market cap. A capital intensive company with low growth will use a lot of debt so that the return on equity is competitive with other stocks. This, the high debt to equity is just compensating for low growth. But Tesla suffers from no low growth problems. It's able to exceed 50% annual organic growth in revenue. So it really does not need to lever up to have offer an exciting return on equity to shareholders.I’d like to put an end to the nonsense of Tesla being valued similarly to companies that produce several times more units.

Basically More mobileyeYeah, the paper states clearly: "The rule-of-thumb is that except in rare cases, domain-specific algorithms work faster and better than reinforcement learning."
Tesla will have it working in no time (very soon) as they will copy the algorithms that people use and add "fuzzy logic" (may be using this term wrong) to make a good decision when the algorithms break down.
The task resolves to:
1) Create a set of appropriate situational algorithms.
2) Create a set of plan B, C, D, and Es for when each algorithm fails to work.
3) Use deep learning to shade the plan B decisions.
I expect Tesla:
1) is still growing their object identification library, and
2) has not acknowledged that human drivers track the center line by sighting off the left front corner of the hood. They don't register the vehicle in the center of the lane. The right side line is secondary information most of the time.

The Electrek article about ConEd embracing Powerpacks indicates that the US market is ready for loft-off!
Call it 10 and I’m on board.It means "3 months maybe; 6 months on the outside" is really 3 years... who could've thunk it?
Current owners have another vehicle should the early production M3s have an issue. They require less education. Its an incentive for people to buy the higher margin and more expensive vehicle, etc. Also, Tesla said from the start that current owners have priority and that you can cut the line if you purchase an S or X. The only people that object are non owners that have become impatient. Its a sentiment that I understand, but that doesn't make them right.
