@seti_park @grok what are AC self heating and AC ripple current as mentioned in this post?

[Philip Trautman @philipt4]

@CernBasher And possibly worth noting that Tesla has already signaled its willingness to decrease transportation costs when needed by making supercharging free during hurricanes etc.

[Philip Trautman @philipt4]

@FutureAZA Ordered with your code! Thanks very much.

@01Ananto My car (14.1.3) signaled and pulled off for a non-emergency vehicle overtaking at a high speed on a four-lane highway. It was going so fast it may have been an emergency.

@niccruzpatane Got it last night in Wyoming.

[Philip Trautman @philipt4]

@DirtyTesLa @elonmusk Hive mind.

[Philip Trautman @philipt4]

@BLKMDL3 I would say 13.2.9 already drives better than me in most situations.

[Philip Trautman @philipt4]

@DirtyTesLa @Tesla_AI Agree with the comment about speed control. I've only had 13.2.9 for a month (new car) but my main intervention has been to make the car go slower (or faster).

@CanyouTran @TheSonOfWalkley Not everyone can stay attentive while sitting and doing nothing for hours. 100 cars probably require 300 to 400 drivers?

[Philip Trautman @philipt4]

@DirtyTesLa I'm not even sure why this made me laugh out loud, but it did!

[Philip Trautman @philipt4]

@live_munro @Hyundai I think this model looks good, although I prefer the look of the Kia EV 9. In general, Hyundai/Kia EVs are doing a great job as far as exterior design goes. I don't like the interiors as much, at least not the cockpit styling and controls, but still better than most.

@JoeTegtmeyer @thejefflutz The same way all the other rocket companies routinely land their boosters on a drone ship

[Philip Trautman @philipt4]

@DriveTeslaca Accelerating supercharger deployment feels like a sign of confidence.

[Philip Trautman @philipt4]

@piloly Just a note. I really appreciate your posts, but I am colorblind, as are 8% of men. It is very difficult for me to distinguish between these two colors. With this chart I can guess based on position but not many others.

[Philip Trautman @philipt4]

@skorusARK That depends how much you like your work!

[Philip Trautman @philipt4]

@nerdalert I've still got HW3, so I'm still on 12.6.4. Nevertheless, my car had no trouble traversing the 60-mile roundtrip to the airport to pick up my wife. And she seemed perfectly relaxed the entire drive home which is the real win!

[Philip Trautman @philipt4]

@nerdalert @DirtyTesLa @Wendys Not sure what it says about me but this was the biggest laugh of the day.

[Philip Trautman @philipt4]

@thejefflutz @Tesla_AI Just another moat that is under appreciated.

[Philip Trautman @philipt4]

@nerdalert Presumably after hours and overnight trades have a bigger impact because there’s less activity? So relatively small trades can be used to create a signal that could affect the regular market?

[Philip Trautman @philipt4]

@nerdalert I found that very informative. I'm only using Google because sometimes the old reflex takes over. I've got Grok and Gemini pinned in my browser, but Gemini has been annoying.
