Tesla's claim to delivery ratio is abysmal. Can you substantiate this concretely? How about a list, with direct sources? (Not opinion pieces.)

> The full system is scheduled for some time in 2022. Knowing Tesla’s timing on Model 3, Model Y, Cyber Truck, Semi, Roadster, and Full Self Driving, we should automatically assume we can pad this timing here. That's just from the article; off the top of my head: * NYC to LA fully autonomous drive by 2017. * 1M Robotaxis on the road by 2021. * Hyperloop. * Solar roof tiles. * All superchargers will be solar-powered.…

So, to sum up, the criticisms are mostly about "Elon Time" and not about whether Tesla is actually trying to do things. Hyperloop is not something Tesla is trying to do, and Elon is only cheerleading that effort.

There's something highly off-kilter with the relative mildness of the above and the vitriol of the criticism directed at it. This actually makes me feel really good about Elon Musk and Tesla's prospects!

Why not optimize Blue Apron and HelloFresh style meal kits so that they involve even less labor, then distribute the production to local commercial kitchens? There are already businesses that package this kind of prep work for restaurants.

I'm pretty sure you're just reinventing Domino's pasta line. Standardize the ovens you distribute around the world. Simplify food cooking so that its just "put this pre-cut prepared block of aluminum foil into the standard-temperature oven for 15 minutes", and "deliver".

You just reinvented it by taking what I was picturing about 3 steps further.

Simplify food cooking so that its just "put this pre-cut prepared block of aluminum foil into the standard-temperature oven for 15 minutes", and "deliver".

HelloFresh already has "kits" that get delivered, and later people more or less just place them into the oven on the provided aluminum foil trays.
