I’m not so sure with overprovisioning, batteries and controllable load. Also pumped hydro and other gravity batteries. We barely have any storage on the grid right now.

For whatever reason both solar and heat pumps are insanely cheap in Australia vs America. It’s mostly in the labor part for some reason. This comes up all the time in the solar subreddit where Americans are routinely quoted at $4.00+ per wa

I’d rather an article talk about how panasonic cells achieved 20% more density over 5 years at volume production. Much more impressive. https://electrek.co/2020/07/30/tesla-batteries-energy-densit...

I think they can solve for more RAM pretty easily with the M3. Apple silicon is pretty dedicated to having the GPU cores integrated with shared memory though so I don’t see them offering graphics card options. An M3 extreme which is 2 or ev

Yes, this is called clipping and it’s not a bad thing. Most areas don’t have perfect peak sunlight for very long at all.

Sheetz, Wawa and Royal Farms all already have Tesla chargers. Wawa has a location in Virginia with no gas pumps but Tesla chargers. So yes they are already planning for this future.

Yah this is where people get stuck in their way of thinking about current technology limitations. Really fast <10m charge times are only about 5 years away which means people will use DC fast chargers like gas stations.

Disagree. 80 hour weeks is not sustainable so if you are basing your startup success on that than you are doomed.

You could probably get away with a Tesla no matter where you live in the U.S. If you don’t like Teslas a PHEV makes a lot of sense. You will charge for most daily driving but still have the ability to road trip. CCS charging networks are no

OpenAI is the one pushing all the other companies to be irresponsible and rush their products to market. I don’t get it.

Physical office real estate is a major liability in 2023. All of this noise is about people not accepting that fact.

This take really makes no sense at all. Even if you argue that all Elon did is start SpaceX and provide the initial funding (which is undeniable) than you would still have to agree he has been wildly successful as a business person. People

This was true several years ago but if you look now there are hundreds of GWh of cell plants coming online over the next 3 years. Toyota is very late here and won’t be able to produce dedicated BEVs at scale until 2026+. Competitors will al
