🧵 On Battery Investor Day, Elon Musk Promised #Tesla Will Make 100 GWh of Batteries in 2022
$TSLA stock shot up 3x since then.
Musk lied. It was another stock pump. Here's why.
#Vaporware $TSLAQ 1/16
Musk's specific promise was that #Tesla's internal production of cells - in addition to what $TSLA buys from @Panasonic and others - will be 100 GWh this year.
He said that the 100 GWh will come from his new, 100% integrated Texas factory.
Except it's physically impossible. 2/16
Let's first start down memory lane, and see how #Tesla influencers pumped Musk's Nevada JV with @Panasonic back in 2016.
The promise 6 years ago was a massive expansion to 150 GWh.
But the Nevada JV has been stuck at 35 GWh/yr instead. 3/16

🚨 #Tesla's @Theranos-level LIDAR Lies 🚨
During Tesla's "AI Day", its representative said, "Here, we have a real clip that was gotten from a car. It then goes through an auto-labelling pipeline to create a 3-D reconstruction of the scene..." $TSLA $TSLAQ 1/9
He's technically not lying. But he's omitting that the "Real World Clip" was obtained from a #Tesla company car mounting LIDAR sensors (examples below). This builds upon @ValueDissenter's excellent thread on Tesla cheating with LIDAR sensors. 2/9
Here's why I'm also sure. #Tesla's LIDAR rigs feature static lidar sensors angled downwards. So there will be blind spots, especially during turns with high objects above. See how the canopies are cut-off? The camera - and the audience - can see them. The LIDAR didn't. 3/9

«Alcantarilla Smart City»

Así se titula este sainete galdosiano que tiene de todo:

✅ Neolengua tecnológica
✅ Dinero público
✅ Políticos

Y fósiles.
No hay alcalde que no suspire por enarbolar en su aldea el pendón de la «smart city», ese gigantesco globo lleno de #vaporware.

¿Y qué mejor para entrar en el futuro que un convenio entre el ayuntamiento y la empresa local de agua y alcantarillado?

De este singular matrimonio nace «Alcantarilla Smart City»: una app «innovadora y moderna» y un «ejemplo de transparencia y participación», según sus promotores municipales.

Una foto del alcalde y la oportuna nota de prensa inmortalizan la gesta.
