“@tesla_addicted One of the improvements to FSD vision involves training with actual photon counts, so removing the filters used to make pictures pretty to the human eye”

“@hohocho @Tesla Checking …”
“@RenataKonkoly @WR4NYGov It’s great that they’ve changed their tune these days, but the truth is that GM tried damn hard to kill the electric car! If not for competitive pressure from Tesla, they would be doing nothing. https://t.co/BAa6mXvbrZ https://watchdocumentaries.com/who-killed-the-electric-car/”
“@BillyM2k @heydave7 Indeed. Over time, Tesla will generate hundreds of billions for the government in terms of employee income tax, product sales tax and property tax, in addition to profit taxation.”
“@RyanZohoury @Tesla @TeslaCharging @BLKMDL3 We are waiting for permit approval from Santa Monica”
“@PPathole @teslaownersSV @Kristennetten @itsALLrisky @SenSanders Yes, that is the other major source of dilution. All employees receive stock after a year at Tesla and we now have over 100,000 employees worldwide.”
“@teslaownersSV @Kristennetten @itsALLrisky @SenSanders I had majority control for the first 5 years or so of Tesla, but car companies need lots of capital, so now I’m around 20% or so, despite putting in as much as I could along the way”
“@ICannot_Enough Please don’t read too much into this. As mentioned publicly, Tesla is constrained by chip supply short-term & cell supply long-term. Not possible to produce additional vehicles in volume until both constraints are addressed.”
“@slashdot Tesla Megapack batteries will help stabilize the grid this winter”
“@teslaownersSV @SamTwits He came damn close to killing Tesla through a combination of bad management decisions, driving out talented people, bad engineering, major blunders in supply chain & an elaborate deception about the true cost & schedule of the Tesla Roadster.”
“@SamTwits Founding story of Tesla as portrayed by Eberhard is patently false. I wish I had never met him. Eberhard is by far the worst person I’ve ever worked with in my entire career. Given how many people I’ve worked with over the years, that’s really saying something …”
“@SamTwits I hope they’re able to achieve high production & breakeven cash flow. That is the true test. There have been hundreds of automotive startups, both electric & combustion, but Tesla is only American carmaker to reach high volume production & positive cash flow in past 100 years.”
“@Rainmaker1973 Tesla Autopilot spends a lot of effort on minimizing jerk”
“Much is made lately of unrealized gains being a means of tax avoidance, so I propose selling 10% of my Tesla stock. Do you support this?”
“@teslaownersSV Haha true! The top alternate name, if we couldn’t acquire the Tesla Motors trademark, was Faraday, which a competitor ended up using.”
“@Jon4Lakers @Tesla We will post finer-grained details of software improvements going forward”
“@koolio @Jon4Lakers @Tesla Exactly. Improved memory will cause predictions to converge & reduce jitter.”
“@Teslarati @Writer_01001101 In the future, any Tesla you use will automatically sync to your preferences”
“@BLKMDL3 @Jon4Lakers @Tesla Probable”
“@Jon4Lakers @Tesla Neural net upgrades coming that improve persistence across time & space (better object permanence)”
“@teslaownersSV You’re welcome! If any of this is based on Hertz, I’d like to emphasize that no contract has been signed yet. Tesla has far more demand than production, therefore we will only sell cars to Hertz for the same margin as to consumers. Hertz deal has zero effect on our economics.”
“@silverph @ring @TOCNYS @Tesla @TeslaNY 🤣”
“Trial program for opening Tesla Superchargers to other EVs has begun”
“@garycruz @truth_tesla @zshahan3 @garyblack00 @WholeMarsBlog @SawyerMerritt Yup, 2nd UAW president in a row. Unlikely to be the last.”

“@truth_tesla @zshahan3 @garyblack00 @WholeMarsBlog @SawyerMerritt Biden is a UAW 🧦 puppet”
“@SawyerMerritt @Tesla By definition, since I own ~20% of Tesla, ~80% of stock gains necessarily went to investors & employees!”
“@DrEliDavid If WFP can describe on this Twitter thread exactly how $6B will solve world hunger, I will sell Tesla stock right now and do it.”
“@hsumacher @Tesla Indeed. The factory was empty at the time, stripped of all equipment that wasn’t worth even its scrap value. But we salvaged what was left & fixed up the old machines so some could work again.”
“@InsideEVs Thanks on behalf of Tesla”
“@ray4tesla “Tesla Hertz Shorts””
“@teslaownersSV @Teslarati @ResidentSponge Tesla always pays its debts”
“@ecommerceshares The cemetery of automotive startups over the past century is very large & will get larger. Tesla & Ford are the only American car companies that haven’t gone bankrupt.”
“@TeslaHype @Teslarati @ResidentSponge Indeed, US taxpayers actually profited from the Tesla loan”
“@Teslarati @ResidentSponge GM & Chrysler were bailed out (money never repaid), but Tesla was not. Crucial Tesla investment actually came from Daimler in 2009, from which they did very well. Tesla received govt energy efficiency loan in 2010, by which time capital markets reopened. Loan was repaid early.”
“@tesla_raj You can also talk through the car speaker. Great for practical jokes :)”
“@JayinShanghai That math is incorrect, but still a lot of devices per second! I guess if Tesla can reach 20M cars/year, that would be one every ~1.5 seconds!”
“@TheBabylonBee I feel like this has happened at Tesla a few times”
“@PPathole @Tesla Reducing traffic fatalities by 90% seems likely, perhaps ultimately by over 99%”
“@LudaLisl @sat1 @Hertz Also, Tesla will soon be a German car manufacturer.”
“@Teslarati @KlenderJoey I’d like to express appreciation to Tesla Autopilot engineering & QA for working round the clock all weekend to resolve the problem”
“@Teslarati @KlenderJoey Sorry to Tesla beta users for the trouble! Issue turned out to be power saving mode interacting with FSD. Our internal QA fleet didn’t see this, because cars are constantly in use, so very rarely enter power saving mode. Internal QA will obv test this case going forward.”
“@GerberKawasaki Strange that moved valuation, as Tesla is very much a production ramp problem, not a demand problem”
“@ProTheDoge Lots of people I talked to on the production lines at Tesla or building rockets at SpaceX own Doge. They aren’t financial experts or Silicon Valley technologists. That’s why I decided to support Doge – it felt like the people’s crypto.”
“@TeslaNY @boringcompany @Tesla @maddiewhitetv This will be cool”
“@DirtyTesla @Tesla Yup”
“@MatchasmMatt @NHTSAgov Objectively, her track record is extremely biased against Tesla”
“@harrison_astro We can do that partially, but detailed rocket technology is considered advanced weaponry (same tech as nuclear missiles), so there are more limitations than at Tesla”
“@AnythingTesla @Tesla Yeah”
