RE: Tesla Semi truck unveil & test ride set for Oct 26th !
In this video, we’re going to look at Tesla’s Austin Gigafactory and how it’s one of the most advanced manufacturing factories in the world. We will explore the 3 key innovations that makes Giga Austin capable of manufacturing cars at a cheaper price while also increasing production speed. We’ll also look into how they’re able to build the factory so quickly.
What’s new in Giga Texas?
The Giga Press - This gigantic machine is a 70x improvement in efficiency when it comes to making the model Y rear casting.
4680 Battery Production - Brand new method to produce battery cells at high volume.
Prefab building method which will speed up the construction process significantly.

RE: Texas winterizing...
It does sound like Texas went on the cheap as far as winterizing all of their power sources, but that doesn't mean the solution is to surrender control to the feds.
When I lived in Texas, all of my subdivision and all of surrounding subdivisions (to the best of my knowledge) were built slab-on-grade...so the water, gas, and often power would run up to the attic / 2nd story where the mechanical equipment (other than the outside components of the A/C) was located and then be distributed from there.
As far as Alaska, every day during the week I look out and see several wind turbines happily spinning away, but on the location, there are always 2-3 that aren't spinning: probably routine downtime, but who knows?
Every weekend, I also drive by what is probably close to an acre of solar panels. Currently covered in snow....like they have been since mid-November except for a week or so in January when they were covered with ice after a thaw-freeze cycle. I can't speak to the efficiency or reliability of the wind turbines but they were put in with grant money, not with operating funds, so that makes me wonder about the economics. I can say with some degree of certainty that the acre solar grid ain't producing jack and hasn't since last summer.

Leave it to the crews of Giga Texas to show how it's done once again! Not only are we learning how a building goes up at break-neck speed, but we now have learned what to do with all of the snow and ice that has befallen the Austin area! So simple when there's proper motivation and resources!

Despite Giga Texas being enveloped by low clouds all day, the crews were still working atop beams and cranes were swinging steel. Not as busy as a "normal" Sunday; the East structures and South were fairly calm, no GeoPiering happening today but a lot of action on the West side steel structure as it seems that the crew team there wants the cup!

RE: I Was Stimulated Today
My wife got hers over a week ago but when I check it says :
Payment #2 Status - Not Available
We are unable to provide the status of your payment right now because:
We don't have enough information yet (we're working on this), or
You're not eligible for a payment.
How can that be since we file jointly ?
