Could they not be training employees while we speak? Bring them to Freemont or Sparks for a while and have them work side by side with current employees. Nothing better than hands on experience.

Did I miss it or was it not mentioned? Do we have a date and time for this event yet?

what does the timing of a midnight press release say about when to expect the quarterly P&D announcement, and whether it is BTE or not?
They already built the worker dormatories. It was the second thing that they built, after the building where they held the opening ceremony.

Oh, Canadians will find a way, don't you worry! (When Ontario tried to deny the $14K rebate for Tesla's sold before the end of the rebate, the Courts spanked the Gov't hard and forced them to pay).

Nothing.
Maybe Elon's asked for a profitability projection and Zach, being a bit wet behind the ears, is taking his time or can't find the last saved Excel on Deepak's old PC - Deepak, as often happens, forgot to save it on the shared drive before he left.

Gonna be a big event with the whole Autopilot/FSD leadership present.
Here's Andrej Karpathy's recent talk about Tesla's approach to machine learning (a.k.a. "Software 2.0"):
(With a few amusing details about Tesla's AI driven auto-wipers.)

In the meantime, in his top priority effort to make service experience better, Elon removed the possibility to schedule service from the mobile app (at least in Europe). Brilliant move in order to decrease wait times!

still very clearly on my app, UK here.
Reality check from January when Tesla had executed a pretty much perfect quarter with 86k production and 90k deliveries. But the market and cnbc saw it differently:
Tesla shares tumble as much as 10% as company misses Wall Street vehicle delivery estimates, cuts prices
Edit: Forgot to call them morons but maybe that's a given.

- The bearish take: "Tesla had a very bad Q1, S/X sales collapsed, lots of Model 3's in transit, big Q1 losses secured. They now want to hold an FSD conference, parading all their leadership but not taking any questions, to distract from the bad Q1 results and to catch the falling knife SP with more FSD vaporware!"
- The bullish take: "Tesla had a very good Q1, lots of Model 3's delivered, tiny profits maybe secured after all. They now want to hold an FSD conference, parading all their leadership, to bask in the glory and to keep the SP momentum going with more FSD progress demonstrations."

Needed to correct my error" The numbers I presented were March only.Just some perspective when the FUD starts to fly tomorrow no matter what happens:
BMW is crowing that their YOY Q1 sales are up 2.9% in the US for a total of 33K units sold.
TSLA will sell almost that number of vehicles in the same market, for a 50% YOY increase. And ALL of the stories in the news you see tomorrow will be about Tesla's collapsing sales
For the quarter BMW sold 82K cars/trucks, and Minis.
Their Q1 2019 sales were flat YOY, yet, here is the Bloomberg headline this morning:
Mod: please post the actual headline in your text, or come back and fix it when you see bloomberg's silly replacement text. It takes you 10 seconds, or it takes the moderator a minute. --ggr.

Honestly I couldn`t care less if they make $100M loss or $100M profit in Q1. It is immaterial long term picture and the profit decline has very good reasons.So I'm afraid the timing doesn't help us much.
Having said that, the only reason why I am hoping for a tiny profit is that it would make 3 consecutive quarters, with Q2 and Q3 almost certainly continuing the trend. I believe that is the only way to break the negative narrative and get the SP back on track.
German numbers are in.
March Tesla totals were 2367 deliveries, taking Q1 to 3596. 440% growth Q1 `18 to Q1 `19.

Healthy numbers. They may one day become the third most important market after US and China (not necessarily in that order). Right now Norway is on the podium.
Disappointing. But the rest of Europe was so good that it doesn't matter. Europe beat my expectations easily.
When everything is added up, it should be nearly nearly 23k.Similar threads
