supervisory board of VW has 20 members, state of Lower Saxony appoints 2 (as a minority shareholder), workforce elects 7 among themselves, and 3 are trade union representatives also elected by the workforce.
no one is denying it's a for profit company, but its governance model doesn't really scream "neoliberalism". assuming you're from the US, (German) enterprises like VW are vastly different from what exists in the US, not just in the terms of their structure but also their influence on Germany and EU.
My favorite impact that I've had on my organization was the "no agenda, no meeting". It became a meme, minutes before the agenda-less meeting was supposed to take place someone would send it to a meeting chat or email, usually followed with ":)", especially if I were one of the attendees. In the rare cases I forgot to follow my own stubborn rule then it was a whole show, in hindsight, probably should've broken it at least once a quarter along with some penance to really help cement it.
However, I managed to "bully" everyone into following this simple rule because I had some influence in the organization; I was a manager of a large department.
Unfortunately, interns will probably get an eye-roll for such suggestions, even if they reference their superior's rule.
My point is, don't send you colleagues this link, you will come off as rude. You'll get further by e.g. feigning surprise to the lack of agenda, and maybe you get to use that opportunity to spark a conversation about the importance of an agenda. If you're a manager and above, then by all means, use your influence to force it, it will make everyone's job easier in the long run.
Oh, as for the messages that contain only "hello", just ignore them, they will either solve their own problem or quickly jump to the point once they tire of waiting for your equally pointless response. Or just have a chat with your colleagues every once in a while, maybe they genuinely care about you and your cat.
(I'm going to assume you're serious). Only in the tech bubble could a hobby which is challenging and probably gruesome at certain points, be held against you. In any normal conversation a person who climbs literal mountains would be looked at in a positive light. Not saying it's the one defining quality you'd need to successfully run a company, but you somehow managed to place it at the completely wrong side of the proverbial scale. Of course, it's probably completely insignificant and uncorrelated, but I wouldn't be surprised to read that someone who plays a piano is also incompetent to run a company because ...I don't know, I guess I'll have to wait to read that one here soon.
4680 is a cylindrical cell format, the number you quoted refers to the cell itself, when packaged into a battery with busbars, cooling, etc., the gravimetric density on pack level for model 3 is around 125Wh/kg. the number listed by BYD is 150Wh/kg pack level density. the cells themselves are probably around 200-250, but they require less packaging effort due to the fact that the cell housing for prismatic cells already incorporates various mechanical and safety features.
i haven’t checked any of the numbers nor have i seen 3rd party analyses, but it definitely follows the trend: prismatics keep getting better and they might ultimately win the race once we get to solid state and thermal management “solves itself”
