careful of un-proving

Show me one statement I've made to the people I've walked back, ever. C'mon dogg.

They're gonna hit a million CTs in 8 months from texas alone.

woooah woah woah... sir. woah.

They will outsell every silly other EV truck that had a substantial head start by next December. But not a million units moved.

I would think he was kidding. Elon himself already laid out the 250 to 500k once ramped.

your energy, excitement, and esprit de corps are unmatched - genuinely

that same energy and excitement does sometimes get you a bit out over your skis, and optimistic in your interpretations

Even more reason I don’t by principle put a lot of weight on data like “I know things I can’t share that are the basis of my view”

particularly when it’s contrary to other, solid, data, from more reliable sources

no knock on you, or remotely personal - it’s just that in this instance I’m confident you are wrong that a single truck has yet to be built in TX, and so any RCs yet exist, much less are in NZ

we know what we know and don't know what we don't know.

Somebody posts a gif of a naked woman and ya'll want to debate which way she's spinning????

Must be a bunch of engineers.....

I never said she was naked

but I like the way you think

i think we might be confusing alpha builds with beta builds with release candidates (gamma builds)

pretty sure everything out now is beta, with the exception of alpha at the museum. Fairly sure there are no gamma builds out in the wild yet, built at Texas or not. Musk said RCs to come next month, and i believe him.

You can have a beta build that is close to release, but RCs are meant to validate the production/pipe line. Which is not complete. There is no way to have a product that has "potential for release," without that being in place first. This is coming from a software tester, and while software is not hardware i am fairly sure the terminology carries over.

Where did Elon say that there we August release candidate builds?

 

[JohnnieUtah]

The violent quick left and right turn made me curious if there is a different delay between front and rear wheel reacting to the steering wheel turn and this repetitive left and right turns on ice could make the impact of that difference additive and more pronounced. I would love to be a fly on the wall in a meeting of the engineers discussing results of these tests.



Did anyone see this as counter-clockwise first? Are you left handed?

Yes. And yes.

I guess it was communicated to suppliers, not sure if by Elon himself though

Refersh the screen and see a new truck in Texas today

I work in software too and I don’t think the terminology ports over super well. Trucks that are hand built are fundamentally different from the product of the assembly line. Maybe you can call them Alpha trucks. Franz’ truck says “Prototype 22” on it, and I think that’s the best description. It’s a prototype, essentially a very detailed mock up.

The “Product” is the assembly line. Until very recently we haven’t seen anything which is the output of that product so IMO they are best considered mock ups/ prototypes.

We’ve seen increasing evidence there are trucks coming off the line in small numbers—not “Release Candidates”—but largely the product of the final assembly line. Giga Castings from Texas, steel folded in Texas, and at least partially assembled on the final line. This is why we’re seeing brand new trucks getting tested in Fremont and New Zealand. They are measuring the output of the assembly line as opposed to the hand-built trucks that came previously.
