I mean, you're looking at up to 151$/kWH wholesale for the batteries. I'm assuming that doesn't include the cost of containers, wiring between them, logic or extra bits for the pack (e.x. IIRC Ford packs auto discharge i

If I had to guess, it's a few factors. They probably overhired during 2020-2022 period like everyone else did. Additionally, AFAIR there were tax rule changes going in play this year that would change the accounting balance sheet. [0]

I think sometimes the client bindings are/were in need of improvement. As an example, the C# API was originally very 'go-like' and written to .NET Framework, didn't take advantage of a lot of newer features... to the poi

Interesting to think about that. I remember the SuperH had 16 bit instructions (well, SH-5 was variable length,) I wonder whether that would have become 'our future' if ARM hadn't done Thumb back then.

Yeah, I actually worked on the compliance side for a publicly traded company. The amount of work 'legitimate' providers make you put in can sometimes be painful, especially when they don't do what they say they are gonna do.
