First, the Volt has a combustion engine. That does not qualify it as a comparison to a Tesla or a Chevy Bolt. Second, not sure where you are getting your numbers, but both the Model S has sold more than the leaf, add in the Model X, which i

That's about 10%, and it's all heat. So to charge a 90kwh battery, you need roughly 99kwh of energy. Which for me, since it's charging in my garage, the excess heat is actually kind of nice as it will keep my garage slightly

Except for a week later he ditched the Bolt and was back in his Tesla. He was just trying it out because he had a demo. He quickly found out that the Bolt is no comparison really and switched back to the Model S.

Yup, we will have a world with many adapters. I don't think it'll be a big of a problem though. Also, Tesla has already done so much for any car manufacturer: - They have made all patents free to use by anyone. - Elon has stated

Ahh, exactly. I think this kind of thing is quite dangerous. When people become afraid to say what they think and/or get berated when they do, it's a very dangerous climate. For any side. All of the sudden people start to believe

My theory, many people are actually voting for Trump, for whatever reason it may be, but they will not tell others. Polls, friends, community, etc. It seems many communities, including SV, have tried to ostracize those with opposing viewpoi

Not yet. I haven't even bothered as the current gen powerwall is pretty much not for sale... not many people actually got them. And also they are announcing PowerWall 2.0 this month. So we'll see what new features it'll bring

Can confirm, Tesla Owner. I guess living in Texas as well, which has dirt cheap/free electricity. Yes, I have a plan that I pay $0.00/KwH between 8pm and 5am. I charge it during those hours.

As a frequent Redditor, this AI is going to be very witty. They should limit it to top comments only, and for training, you might as well assume 90% of top comments are sarcastic/tongue in cheek. Or let a user dial the sarcasm/wit

So this is great however I have a very large concern. In a U.S. AWS data center, I am very confident (right now) that my encryption keys and encrypted data will never be given out to any governmental agency. Even with a warrant, they can no

As a huge Formula 1 fan, this would be very exciting! Pending Apple would keep McLaren in Formula 1. It would bring a huge amount of money to the sport along with another team that can compete at the R&D level of Mercedes and Ferrari.

I believe in ownership of assets that appreciate in value. I would not buy a home, as an occupant in that home, to make money (buying an investment property is completely different). In a way, a home is a savings account. You always need a

This might be a cool concept for somebody who knows they will stay and want to rent out one place for at least 3 - 5 years. Even then, I'm not so sure. Because when renting, yes, you pay a premium, but if the house needs repairs, it&#x

Yeah, basically banks don't want a public api because security concerns. So people get around it by logging into the user's bank and scraping. Which is much less secure than just providing a secure api to begin with... All good in
