“@martinmeany We are dramatically increasing Tesla Superchargers within cities & working with landlords to add home charging to apartment buildings”
“@Erdayastronaut @NASASpaceflight @_Synders @John_Gardi @martinengwicht @JeromeJaccard @Robotbeat @alan1bernard Yes, full flow, gas-gas, staged combustion. Will take us time to work up to 300 bar. That is a mad level.”
“@FredericLambert @boringcompany You’re right. We did have a sim ready, but it was confusing, so I didn’t include it. We’re working on one that makes things clear.”
“Honored to work with amazing teams at SpaceX & Tesla!”
“Already testing traffic lights, stop signs & roundabouts in development software. Your Tesla will soon be able to go from your garage at home to parking at work with no driver input at all.”
“@EESNY @teslaownersSV @S100Dfan Applying a hydrophobic coating to the radar (located just below nose of car) should help. Easy to do yourself or Tesla service can do it. We’re also working on vision-only driving.”
“You can summon your Tesla from your phone. Only short distances today, but in a few years summon will work from across the continent.”
“But if you love what you do, it (mostly) doesn’t feel like work”
“There are way easier places to work, but nobody ever changed the world on 40 hours a week”
“@ScaleyMurrsuit Maybe interesting to work with Daimler/Mercedes on an electric Sprinter. That’s a great van. We will inquire.”
“Will also be using dedicated roll-on, roll-off fast ships for transporting cars to Europe & Asia in Q1. Major focus on minimizing time from factory to new owner. Did not fully appreciate the working capital impact until recently.”
“@Tesla Would like to thank Robyn for joining the team. Great respect. Very much look forward to working together.”
“@Scobleizer @Tesla They’re great! Honored to work with them.”
“@Teslarati Amazing results by @Panasonic at Tesla Gigafactory Nevada! Very much appreciate extreme hard work it took to achieve this result. Together with Pana Japan cell plants, Tesla/Pana partnership is producing ~60% of global EV battery output!”
“@vaipier Long-term, the car will work purely on vision, with radar just a plus, but maybe worth adding a radar heater anyway”
“@raxetul We can make it work from very far away. LoS is just for safety.”
“Tesla advanced Summon ready in ~6 weeks! Just an over-the-air software upgrade, so will work on all cars made in past 2 years (Autopilot hardware V2+).”
“@vicentes Working on it”
“Tesla rear wheel drive cars do actually work well on snow & ice. We did our traction testing on an ice lake! Dual motor AWD is great, but not required for cold weather. Just don’t use sport/summer tires.”
“@ID_AA_Carmack Thanks John, really admire you too! I think you’re one of the best engineers ever. Hope you return to working on rockets one day.”
“Works best if you play games full screen & use steering wheel scroller balls for control”
“@cleantechnica Thanks for recognizing the great work of the Tesla team! 45,000 people now.”
“@incentives101 @Jason @Tesla Yes, but 🐻 in 🧠 that we’re creating a generalized autonomy solution. Must work in millions of strange 🚘 situations.”
“@MebFaber When something sounds too good to be true, it usually is. Way the trick works is companies like Blackrock keep up to 50% of short interest revenue, but suffer almost none of equity decline, as they’re just “passive” managers. Blackrock made $597M in short lending last year!”
“@Model3Owners V9 moving to wide release now. Holding back Autopilot drive on navigation for a few more weeks of validation. Extremely difficult to achieve a general solution for self-driving that works well everywhere.”
“Just want to that the Shortseller Enrichment Commission is doing incredible work. And the name change is so on point!”
“@alitofts @telsa @6pm Tesla will deliver your car to you. This is the future. The way it should work.”
“@JoannMuller @alanohnsman @Forbes The Tesla board has done incredible work overseeing the largest value creation in the auto industry in 100+ years, despite many setbacks. Tesla owes its very existence to this board!”
“@PauloBriski @Tesla My apologies, am working on this exact issue right now”
“Not easy coming up with a good cover story for an underground volcano lair, but I think it’s working”
“@BSaiHemanth Missile Command & Lunar Lander already working in dev build. We changed the control mapping for max fun on a touchscreen.”
“@Tesla I’m excited to work with Silver Lake and Goldman Sachs as financial advisors, plus Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz and Munger, Tolles & Olson as legal advisors, on the proposal to take Tesla private”
“@amitkatwala @WiredUK Open to it at some point. You did an impressive amount of work on this article.”
“@gdb @OpenAI @Blitz_DotA Great work by @OpenAI. Need the neural interface soon to enable human/AI symbiosis.”
“@Excellion We’re working on a new Tesla mini-car that can squeeze in an adult”
“@DMC_Ryan Will work with current hardware. OTA update.”
“@danfromtheweb Phew 😅. Yeah, we had a drain block 3 months ago & people are working hard to make Tesla successful. Am honored to work with them. Are you trolling for fun or is it part of a job? What motivates you?”
“@johndstoll @WSJ @mtbarra I’m honored to work with an amazing group of people at Tesla, but always happy to talk to an ace who might want to join”
“@Vivek_17m @thanr The pumps I saw were running v high flow rate all the way from cave 3. They stopped shortly after boys were rescued & water level rose to roof level all way back to cave 1. That was great work.”
“@shplatt @StarFire2258 Good point. Maybe use non-plumbers with work inspected/approved by pros.”
“@jonodiener For now, reply to my tweet with ppm & ppb test results & will send someone to install a water filter. Creating email flint@x.com, but I’m in China so that won’t be working until tomorrow.”
“@dtemkin This reaction has shaken my opinion of many people. We were asked to create a backup option & worked hard to do so. Checked with dive team many times to confirm it was worthwhile. Now it’s there for anyone who needs it in future. Something’s messed up if this is not a good thing.”
“@imscoops It is an honor to work with them”
“With some mods, this could also work as an escape pod in space”
“@thanr @ablack82 I’m in LA working with the SpaceX team building the kid mini-sub”
“Some good feedback from cave experts in Thailand. Iterating with them on an escape pod design that might be safe enough to try. Also building an inflatable tube with airlocks. Less likely to work, given tricky contours, but great if it does.”
“@thanr @JamesWorldSpace Building double-layer Kevlar pressure pods with Teflon coating to slip by rocks & front/rear rope tow hitch & lead pockets for neutral buoyancy. ~60 cm oval. Testing this aft in a pool with a subject who has never done SCUBA. Do the divers think something like this might work?”
“@thanr @JamesWorldSpace Does you know output voltage & amperage of those generator trucks? 3 phase? What frequency? Will need high voltage transformer to carry power over distance or very thick cable. Beyond that, only batteries will work. Will prep Powerwalls in case needed.”
“@jowens510 @lopezlinette I didn’t ask anyone and the people who sent the snapshots don’t work for me. They just don’t like hypocrites.”
