This is how I read it too. They can then run the RN app on iOS too (with some modifications I'm sure). Seems like a smart strategy. And that the jury is still out.

It may not be sold at full price, but pretty much everything sells.

He was a family friend of mine, and everyone I have talked to has the same take. He was a great songwriter and he wrote a brilliant ending.

That is twice the average household income in the US. Less than 20% of all households have combined earnings over 130k. You may want to reassess your understanding of middle class.

Not at all. I am fully in control of the vehicle and paying attention. I am not physically executing most maneuvers. And as a result, I am MORE alert to the conditions around me.

Model 3 is on autopilot over 90% of the time. Meaning it is handling the mechanics of steering and acceleration. The risk of using the touchscreen in my Tesla vs using a tactile control in a traditional car is night and day in favor of the

This is exactly right. The UI in cars is terrible. The Tesla UI is top notch. I even implemented one of the UI elements in my sass application. I can't imagine saying that about any other car "infotainment" system. It is real

It's trivial. I plug in at home and at work. I haven't visited a gas station in 6 months. Have a "full tank" every time I leave home and work. And my car is warm when I leave for work in the morning and when I head home

That is basically how it works today with Tesla. And you have the option of applying the updates.

Tesla does something similar. They use year.week.patch.build (or something like that).

Thanks for that. This led to a great conversation with my coach about our next hire.

"compulsive puzzle gene" I like that a lot. I'm curious if you hire people and if you use that concept in that process.

Do you think that holds true for both sales and support?

There are a lot of people who dream of being a musician, or an actor, or an artist, or an athlete, or some other prestigious and fun profession. It's the same thing with startups. There is virtually zero chance they will be successful.

Similarly, I have used autopilot in rain so bad that I was scared to drive. It performed perfectly and was much less stressful for me. I was fully engaged and ready to take over, but never needed to.

Or the opposite. Fast fashion increased customer frequency (both by lower cost and lower quality). The retailers used the increased visits to upsell higher margin products. (Notice how H&M, F21, Old Navy have huge accessory sections). L

The primary use case right now is pulling your car in and out of your own garage at your own house. As a Model 3 owner, I also went and tested out the capabilities in a few parking lots, just for fun.

Every disruptive product started out niche. Nokia used to sell way more phones than anyone else too.

So the accurate comparison is the i-Pace and the Model Y. Jaguar beat Tesla to market by 12-18 months in the segment. Will be interesting to see if they can capitalize on the head start.

0-60 is exactly what makes interstate on ramps a blast. With a wide open ramp, it can be more like 0-80+.

The E-Tron specs aren't up to par, so the Taycan looks like it will be the first real contender. At least in some aspects. It will be interesting to see what Audi's semi-autonomous stuff is like in the real world. If it's on

Though the name change did seem to coincide with a shift in focus away from only payroll, to include services similar to Zenefits. They did send me some cool Gusto socks during the rebrand though.
