I’m fully bought into the Apple ecosystem, and I’ve had Teslas for 8 years and we currently also have car that supports CarPlay. The CarPlay interface is overall far inferior, espe…

Ghost in the Wires is one of all time favorite reads, and I still hope to see it as a dramatized film. It would be a fun “period piece” taking the audience through the 80’s and ear…

Tesla leases those parking spots to only be used by Tesla owners. Your non-Tesla vehicle can legitimately be towed away if you park there. They aren’t merely a convenience, but are…

Imagine the sphere’s surface is divided into one million little rectangles. Their total area is meant to approximate the surface area of the sphere. If each one of those were proje…
