I think I've become addicted. I'm waiting for my SEC fix and not doing well during this silent period.
Read the Vern Unsworth filings in the meantime, they have phrases like "engaged in sex with a horse" included...

Depends on whether they can drill down or not. If they only see cumulative figures, there is no data privacy concern.Obviously good for investors if true, bad for owners. Open serious questions on how tightly privacy safeguards are enforced when someone with access to a tool that shows vitals for any car is so casual about taking and (letting distribute) a screenshot.
Someone needs to get this to media that could write an article. Does anyone have any good connections to some media outlets friendly to Tesla??So why don't all of us bombard his twitter account with this YouTube clip and call him out?
Apparently not for the battery's long term health. Hence, the coupling. For me, long term health is more important then short term range. Your mileage may vary.

As a retired pulmonologist I have treated patients with chronic CO exposure. Odorless no symptoms during exposure but concentration problems prevalent. Can measur carboxyhemoglobin concentrations in blood. Once diagnosis made urged patients to investigate home CO concentrations with gas appliances and levels in car. Particularly older car (exhaust systems can develop leaks with age)Note that it's not just death: CO is very poisonous and can create permanent health damage even in non-lethal concentrations. For example low brain oxygen levels and brief unconsciousness can cause permanent brain damage.
CO knocks out a person in less than a second IIRC (a single breath of high enough concentration is enough), and it's colorless/odorless.
I hate to say it, but Chanos is *very* smart. Many TSLAQ are intelligent. Some portion are stupid. Some, I'm pretty sure, are mentally ill and latching onto a group for social reasons.
There's one short who's active on Twitter who constantly says the *dumbest* crap about Tesla. He also posts on other topics that he's expert in, and it's evident that he's so sharp that there's no way he's not just lying whenever he posts about Tesla. There aren't many like that, but I'd actually say there are more smart liars than stupid fools in TSLAQ.
Funny you should mention that:
VW are still up to their extremely dirty anti health anti environment tricks.
They are lobbying for a EUR5k German EV subsidy to be limited to vehicles less than 4.65 metres in length. For cars longer than this they want the subsidy to be just EUR2k.
This is obviously a completely arbitrary policy created specifically to target Tesla (Model 3 is 4.69 metres). Given Model 3 is the only mass produced affordable EV capable of making a significant dent in pollution deaths and CO2 emissions in the near term, this is VW yet again putting their own financial interests ahead of people's health.
I hope you don’t mind, but I posted this on a Cramer comment on twitter. I suggest someone post this any time Cramer mentions Tesla.View attachment 388748 http://www.cc.com/video-clips/rfag2r/the-daily-show-with-jon-stewart-exclusive---jim-cramer-extended-interview-pt--2
I do think we will see many news about legacy car makers struggling this year. I hope not all gets construed as "recession is coming" but rather "new BEVs on the horizon make ICE buyers wait/reconsider"...
Proof to this? than this must go viral, if you have something on this i will get it on all dutch car blogs!
Zugleich soll die Förderung von E-Autos in Abhängigkeit der Größe erfolgen, und zwar nach dem Prinzip: Kleine Autos werden stärker gefördert: So soll ein Wagen unter vier Meter Länge und mit mehr als 200 Kilometer Reichweite mit 5000 Euro gefördert werden. Ein Wagen von mehr als 4,65 Meter Länge dagegen nur mit 2000 Euro. Das dürfte BMW, Daimler und Tesla nicht gefallen, aber auch nicht der VW-Konzernmarke Audi: Sie setzen auf große Limousinen.
OT: Porsche is ending one of their shifts due to collapsing demand in China:

So this would not account for cars that have been totaled or that have gone completely offline? If so, you have to think this number would be at least 5000 higher production this quarter. Meaning 531268-5000+91860 for production this quarter?Wow... This was just posted on Reddit:
And counting : teslamotors
Showing 618128 cars currently "online / registered" with Tesla. Someone is about to get fired.
If end of Q4 2018 Tesla had 531268 cars delivered (is this right?), that means currently, there are 86,860 already manufactured this Q. Would probably have to take inventory into account (and take into account the original roadster numbers as they are not connected?), but still, that's a good number with a week and a half to go and the "big push" is next week... Record numbers again it seems

Looks like the Aussies are waiting for July to buy the Model 3.
I think it's highly unlikely leases are double counted and these stats would be based on a unique identifier by vehicle. The status chart underneath would make no sense if double counted.This is really hard due to the potential double-counting of leases: about 10% of all S/X sales are leased - so end of Q4 total deliveries is AFAICS detached from actual production, and Tesla never shared with us a precise fleet size. (Nor would they have any reason to do so, it would only help competitors and conspiracy theorists.)
My current Q1 estimate is 70k-80k deliveries and 90k-100k production, with very large error bars:
In terms of pack temperature, assuming it will accept a charge from regen, city regen would be less impacted than highway due to the lower power levels required. Kinetic energy is proportional to the square of velocity, so there is also less energy expended and lost at lower speeds. The amount of regen collected is also dependent on speed as Teslas will not regen to a stop. So lower speed city travel has less opportunity for recapture. Overall, city driving involves less kinetic energy change more frequently, at lower powers which means that regen, or lack thereof, is likely less of a factor that the heaters. Indeed, one could do a calculation of the amount of energy lost due to not having regen versus the amount of energy lost to heating the pack to allow regen.Regen has a lot/everything to do with the pack temperature.
This is a thermal management technology discussion really. Losing regen changes one peddle driving for the worse. Mitigating loss of regen is a worthy goal separate from range capacity.
If regen could be decoupled from the pack such that regen was became consistent independent of temp, it would be a good thing.
Other possibilities:
- It was taken and/or distributed without the knowledge or permission of the person who was accessing that screen.
- Only a summary screen was distributed, not private VIN data. Can you see private data in that screenshot? I cannot.
- This was hacked/leaked by a third party.
You again you are taking the extreme worst-case interpretation and are pretending that that's the only possibility - why?
