@WatchersTank @Erdayastronaut The challenges of operating at Starbase left us with no choice but to put engine production in McGregor

@austinbarnard45 Thanks Austin :)

@GokuAurelius @Erdayastronaut Roughly 800 to 1000 per year. That’s about what’s needed over ten years to create the fleet to build a self-sustaining city on Mars. City itself probably takes roughly 20 years, so hopefully it is built by ~2050.

@Erdayastronaut McGregor

@Erdayastronaut By “volume production”, I mean 2 to 4 engines per day. That’s super high volume for big rocket engines, but low volume by automotive standards.

@Erdayastronaut We are breaking ground soon on a second Raptor factory at SpaceX Texas test site. This will focus on volume production of Raptor 2, while California factory will make Raptor Vacuum & new, experimental designs.

@Erdayastronaut 😍

@DirtyTesla @vincent13031925 Yeah, goal is to reflect reality, so screen render will become increasingly so

@28delayslater @karpathy Accurate assessment. Btw, Autopilot software is technically led by Ashok, Andrej & Milan, but it’s very much a “knights of the round table” structure. There are so many talented engineers on Autopilot/AI team & they decide for themselves what to work on. Kinda like Valve.

@vincent13031925 Mind of car visualization will improve a lot in coming releases. Brightness/translucency indicate confidence of neural net in predicting any given object. Acid test is being able to assess with quick glance at screen if car fully understands environment.

@edisoneom @richardbranson @StephenAtHome @thegreatkhalid @Cmdr_Hadfield @kelliegerardi @virgingalactic Only ever have

@RationalEtienne Indeed, Loki is quiet good

@richardbranson @StephenAtHome @thegreatkhalid @Cmdr_Hadfield @kelliegerardi @virgingalactic Will see you there to wish you the best

@summerlinARK @wintonARK Technically, high voltage DC is the most efficient way to transmit electricity, but they lacked good power electronics back then

@TeslaGong @PPathole @MattWallace888 It won’t need to reach visa speed, as regulated exchanges will act as de facto second layer. But the perfect should not be the enemy of the good – it is still good to increase base layer transaction speed & lower base layer transaction cost.

@PPathole @MattWallace888 Block size & frequency should steadily increase to match broadly available bandwidth

@skorusARK When even someone in California, home of Silicon Valley, needs Internet so bad that they bolt a Starlink dish to the hood of their car, you know there’s a serious unmet need! https://t.co/WLcEu4IrJw
