High load in the day during sunlight is mostly true for summer heat, but in the winter you have cold evenings which requires base load or storage, combined with solar angle/efficiency being worse in the winter.

Why is this comment upvoted?

It is most likely AI generated with a nice "Raised $50B" hallucination and filled with cliches ("thrown down the gauntlet", "mountain you don’t climb just once", "not for the faint of heart").

Yes. Kenji Lopez has done this experiment using sous vide cooking.

See the chart halfway down here:

You can just make an IsAdmin() public function to expose it.

A16Z had an article on the lack of IPOs:

Regulatory compliance like Sarbanes Oxley is another huge factor. And VC's having large capital pools make it easy for companies to stay private vastly longer without needing to raise funding from the public.

It's very unfortunate for the public markets, as basic only VC's and PE get access to high growth young companies. Now most of the growth is squeezed out by the VC's and the public gets just the tail end of mature companies.

This is mostly symbolic so far as Tesla doesn’t even have the factory ready.

Elon has options to exercise in Q4 before they expire, which will realize a substantial capital gain.

By moving both personally and his business to Texas, he is likely avoiding California state income tax and capital gains, since Texas has neither.

I’d say that’s bad faith, given how much California has subsidized his companies.
