The powerwall is sold out for like a year. But your area may also require certain certification in building codes or etc that they did not file for.

A solar powered Model S does not need to have solar panels on the car, they could be on the house charging the Model S.

A company having a profitable year is also not an indication of a profitable company. The only point I was making was profitability is looked on a quarter basis, not on a yearly basis for companies. That said, Tesla has been profitable for years on a gross basis.

Businesses report on a quarterly basis, not on a yearly basis. Tesla has had a net profitable quarters, they also have constant gross profitable quarters. They can be net profitable whenever they want to, but the money is better spent into rapid growth which is what they are doing.

That is covered in his autobiography where he pretty much forced himself to public speaking. And shy people don’t have much issue speaking online, even under their real identity.

If you can prove that, there is something called the court system. Where you can easily earn the money to pay for all healthcare costs and more. That is assuming it can be proven.

The risk goes beyond just the person refusing to get vaccinated. If someone does not vaccinate, that means they become a breeding ground for the infection. And the infection can then mutate and become a strand that requires a new vaccine.

Not really. Musk by nature is pretty shy, he just forces himself to speak. So often times things like mood setting can probably make the difference between making a speech and pretty much breaking down during one.

Since when was lithium rare? It is pretty common. About 10X more common than tin and about 2x more common than lead.

But there is a saying, if you want to hide a secret, the best place to hide it is in plain sight.

Sorry, not sure where in this conversation is there any discussion of anyone doing anything wrong. I have made it clear both Tesla and Mobile Eye have different ideas in their approach and decided to move on. There is no blame anywhere on anyone or any accusation of anyone. I think your blind hatred of Tesla is…

Actually, the beta approach works just fine in industry, better than consumers. Most companies start out with buying/leasing a few trucks for evaluations. They then make their purchase decision based on evaluations. Even Mercedes is going the beta approach here.

They can significantly reduce operating costs by going electric, less fuel and less maintenance. And in time remove the driver too.

Vendor reputation depends on how they deal with relationships with other vendors.

I suggest getting a dictionary and looking up the definition of vendor.

I am sorry if your intelligence is not on par with holding a proper conversation. With every statement all you do is throw out childish insults and show your lack of understanding and experience on the topic.

The problem is Mobile Eye is a rather small company, and does not have the resources to handle both. So they chose to focus on standardization across vendors, and do not have the resources to make custom solutions. If you look at their product schedule, their current hardware is outdated, and their next generation…

Vendor reputation is not the same thing as consumer perception reputation. Vendors are not stupid, they don’t care what the media puts out, they do their own internal testing and judge by reputation with other vendors.

You clearly have never ran a business in your life. So just stop before you embarrass yourself any further.

Being more collaborative is not that simple, to do so you need to standardize your product. So that is it compatible cross vendor. But in the case of Tesla, they don’t care about compatibility of cross vendors, they care about pushing the envelop. So Mobile Eye’s solution as far as hardware was simply falling behind…
