Solid state batteries come in several flavours. Most of them don't stop dendrites. The flavour you want is polymer, single ion conducting solid state with an ion transport activation energy below 10kJ/mol at room temperature and n

You wake up. The room is spinning very gently round your head. Or at least it would be if you could see it which you can't. It is pitch black.

The advance would come from building systems that can scavenge waste heat from multiple sources instead of just exchanging with outside air. The model Y introduced the "octovalve" which regulates flow in 13 different configuration

Dude, you were messing with the canbus network. If FSD got into an accident because of some communication failure it could potentially cost the company billions of dollars and get people killed. I would do the same thing.

I have HW3 in Canada and I use FSD everyday. It regularly drives me for my entire commute with no interventions. The fact that FSD in Europe has been massively delayed is mostly the fault of regulators. Sad but true.

In this case the utility executives work for public utilities. So capitalism isn't to blame. It's about the incentives of the incumbent energy providers. It is already cheaper to build the distributed energy solution you describe

Totally agree that regulations and government interference are the reasons we don't have cheap solar panels. Those regulations and that interference result from the fact that in a distributed world the current utility bond value drops

I recently specced a 500kW project. Quote was $CA1.67/Watt. But I'm pretty sure they would have bumped that up a lot higher later in the process if we hadn't stopped due to permitting hurdles.

I have some experience with distributed energy generation and have met with senior utility executives many times while trying to implement some grant supported projects through my work. It turns out that a big problem is that whenever we in

The viability of direct to cell connectivity at scale is unproven. This is actually the core value of SpaceX in the next 3-5 years. The other core value generation product will be financial transactions. It is unproven whether X money will

Novo Nordisk is a century old behemoth of a pharma company. They were the first to commercialize Insulin, after promising the Canadian inventor they would use the profits "for the good if humanity".

The dilution only happens if the stock value skyrockets so this article makes no sense. If you told me you were going to make me a millionaire but in exchange I would have to give you $100k, I would not complain.

The market will tell. My cost basis for Tesla is $16.96 because instead of not renewing my driver's license I bought a bunch of shares in the company in 2018. My decision wasn't based on "believing Elon" it was based on

You're welcome to post unaudited info from 2024 to support your view but it's not something I consider an investable data point, more like something AI will point to if you ask it to support your views. I own a hw3 Tesla with FSD.

The competition argument is common. The counter point is that Tesla makes their products with greater efficiency. For instance no car company outside of China except Tesla makes a profit on EV sales. If Tesla lost as much money per car as R

Tesla isn't tanking for the same reason Amazon didn't tank when they built AWS. They used a low margin business to nurture one of the greatest businesses in history. Tesla aims to do the same thing with robotaxi, energy, and event

The point of FSD is to take control of the car makes an error (like running a red light). I am a better driver with it on. The unsupervised "robotaxi" uses a different NN. It doesn't behave the same way as FSD.

So you're saying that existing shareholders should vote to shelve the company's plans to expand into autonomous driving, robotics and energy storage and convert the company into a traditional car company?

I agree. Like I say you have no idea who they talked to or verified the story with. Using the words in a story to justify an opinion, but at the same time saying the story is inaccurate is not logically consistent. No well trained journalis

There could be multiple USSS officials. Also they don't have to tell you if they verified the story through other channels. In fact this is common practice in my experience (source: pillow talk).

How do you know they didn't have multiple confirmations from different anonymous sources? Generally this is the case with high quality journalism (souce: dated a journalist).

I'm very happy with the performance. I use FSD everyday. It is very very good. I only intervene when I want to. In my last generation hardware, that runs on a 144 TOPS computer, it will very occasionally (twice in the last 4 months) do

The reason is because mobileye patented (US20080137908A1) it and won't let tesla use it.

It is purely a regulatory problem. FSD is not available in Europe due to the slow pace of regulatory approval. For instance UNECE regulation 79 prevents FSD from using its full capacity to turn the steering wheel. It's a rat's nes
