I just assumed they were rolling like Genesis and taking very modest profits at first to get trucks on the road and word of mouth moving.

Regardless of circumstances that assume the worst about her, or how much RJ himself might have hypothetically wanted her out for most any reason shy of fear she would start murdering people or burn the office down, I don't think RJ gave the nod on firing a big-deal exec who was complaining about...

I drove one. Left foot flat. Didn't even notice it.

I don't think you'll ever miss snow-tires if you get the ATs.

This is the reason I don't mind being a few months behind everybody else.

"Let's wait for both sides" is a little too old-fashioned in this scenario because the other side is likely to be disclosed behind a closed-door settlement. When somebody puts their so-far stellar career on the line to sue a former employer a week ahead of the company's IPO like this, they ought...

You don't fire an executive for being "a bad fit" a week before the IPO unless you're being vindictive. And you most certainly don't fire somebody who just raised this issue with HR a week before the IPO, regardless of how bad of a fit they might be, unless you're a jackass. Possibly a jackass...

She's not an idiot. She's suing for discrimination. Her account at her blog post is pretty WTF. When the guy you report to directly requires that you only communicate via text after hours, something is very wrong.

This isn't some rando in middle management. Her hiring made big headlines last year and it couldn't have been easy to get her to leave Aston Martin. I'm somewhat blown away that the guy who was keeping her out of meetings wasn't reporting to her based on their LinkedIn profiles. She was at Land...

The pace of growth is looking geometric so far. That would be 800 in December and 400 in November minus the holiday factor + whatever they've built to date with a big ? on how limited they are due to supply constraints. Those might not hit until after the first 1k.

Got mine. Cutoff date is the 7th. Wow but do they want a lot of info though. This has to be beyond the Patriot Act stuff.

Okay, to sum up because this thread is flying. * 1 preorder from December 2018 originally told end of October was told it's February now. * At least one order holder with similar config from earlier in 2018 is still being told end of November * As far as we know, nobody who was told end of...

Yes, my whole point was that it seemed odd they'd do all of these things if they were aware of an upcoming universal delivery delay. It's either a very new setback or it's not going to impact everybody. But again, hard to say until we hear more on this from other early preorder holders or Rivian...

I'm okay with waiting longer, but It's surprising to me they'd rush to launch the IPO at a time when all of their orders are getting delayed. Can a supply chain issue still be locational? e.g. getting parts to specific locations of the service network? We do seem to have a shortage of truck...

Robinhood screwed its own user base over and participated in the open mugging of millions of retail investors when it blocked purchases of Gamestop and other meme stocks on January 28th. Per the lawsuit which has tons of electronic communication as evidence, this was done at the request of...

I'm more disappointed at all the Tesla trolls I will no longer be able to troll about legit delays vs what they're claiming than the added wait.

I noticed a touch of lag when switching from nav to other screens but it seemed fine otherwise. But when you're looking at video of UI on any screen, you're looking at like 24 FPS of something that's maybe like 25 FPS. A lot of frames that make the motion look smoother in RL will be absent from...

They may have not been particularly aggressive here. When asked about games at First Mile they gave a pretty wimpy answer about it not really being in line with the wilderness experience. I was internally like, okay but sometimes the experience is pavement at a grocery store's free level 2 in...

Oh you'll get no argument from me on Tesla's service being awful when you actually need it. But OTA overall for dealing with software issues strikes me as a net win, unless you've had a lot of other incidents like this. I think Rivian is still leveraging Cox's fleet servicing network even...

Seems like a lot of $ for just a few more miles an hour. Doesn't everybody have to sleep eventually?
