I have to say I’m pretty disappointed in Mods handling the CV thread as well as @Factchecking. So much disappointed that I’ve tried reaching out to TMC to have my membership here deleted forever. Right now, I really don’t feel like coming back here (and there’s a reason for me posting this, I’ll get to it later).
Three of my emails asking for the membership cancellation were sent without any result the past several weeks. So I’m throwing both my hands in the air and giving up at this point. Here’s my take on the CV thread, most people over there won’t accept any form of your suggestions about the 20 vaccine that some the brightest people are working on will work or get fast tracked, despite the medical AI systems predicting the most likely 8 different outcomes to the vaccine. The Chinese found 5 most likely outcome and are testing it like mad scientists. Despite a Chinese official already stating that he’s willing to fast track the vaccine if neccessary, the CV thread won’t accept it.
To sum it up, what the CV thread people are interested in are a few of things: 1) no possibility of any vaccine to save humanity because they said so.. 2) because they said so, we should be warned to sell Tesla stock. 3) the world will end 4) when the world ends, that’s when it’ll be the right time for them to buy stocks.
I’m done dealing with Mods over there. So here I am, posting my CV stuff here. Maybe this will get me banned for life. Would someone please delete my profile for good? There!
btw, I still own Tesla, and have dry powder since locking in some at $830s. Will be buying more BEFORE the world ends.

PS: tips to shorters, become a Mod and the quality of information here will decline dramatically.
Pretty much all the auto factories in China are up and running.
Most of the global OEMs have insight into Chinese best practices regarding COVID-19.
BTW Anybody seen car commercials on tv? Lincoln running ads about non-contact sales experience.
Local Mercedes and Ford dealer in Los Angeles running ads you can conduct entire car purchase via phone/internet and have car delivered without ever seeing an employee in person.
I communicated directly with Karen. She says she’s not coming back and I have no reason to doubt her. Very unfortunate.
You could check the CV thread: CoronavirusWhat a loss for the TMC Forums; she was a tremendous asset. The mods should be ashamed of themselves for driving away some of our most knowledgeable and informative posters.
Does she perhaps blog somewhere where we might follow her?

To expand on this, NOW is a great time to spend the effort on improving these systems while the devs are forced to WFH and production is shut down. Tesla is going to need to be surgically accurate and close every sales opportunity in the short term.I agree with the overall focus of your post, and pretty much everything except this bullet. Do you have a source, or other reason why you think Tesla has the best internal software systems in the world?
My personal impression, as a customer since 2013, is that Tesla has some of the worst internal software systems in the world. As a data management professional, it seems to me that Tesla doesn't know what a data model (3rd normal form), good database design - it's as if they've only hired software engineers and no data management people. It's manifested in such simple problems as service being unable to update my address (back in 2013) because that was the sales system, and it kept pushing the previous owner's address into the default page that service would get.
Marketing db that couldn't keep track of whether to send me invites to launch events (not sure I'd have gone, but as a signature Model X reservation holder, there were a couple of events over the years I'd have at least liked to get an invite).
I can't remember the recent issue somebody else ran into, but I commented along these lines, and let him know that at least he could be comforted by the idea that their basic db design problems change over the years.
They might not be easily the worst, but for a company of Tesla's scale, I've been left feeling like it's amateur hour on this front over the years.

Also, to give some time perspective:The 6+ trillion dollars question: how long it will take the economy to reopen?
For me personally it is completely different preparation scenarios:
1) 1-2-3 months
Preserve some cash, keep on stocks.
2) 6 months. Forget stocks, go for all cash. Change everyday behaviors.
3) 12 months+ Forget cash, go for guns and ammo, full zombie-movie scenario.
I personally prepare for scenario 1 just because I lack imagination for scenarios 2 and 3, but very interested in opinions (fact based if such thing still exists).
So I have my qualms about Discord (but don't have any better suggestions), but this may actually be the relief valve that this subforum needs.There is a Discord channel called Tesla Open Investors Club (link: Join the Tesla Open Investors Club Discord Server! ) where Karenrei, among others, have joined, welcome

Good points - I was thinking about their production management.
Sorry, that's an atrocious graph. It's a joke really. Look at the x and y axis scale.Many have posted solid reasons to think that diagnosed case data could be less accurate than death rates, but it turns out the two appear to be tracking each other quite closely so far.
And as a quick follow-up on my last post, this chart suggests population density does not affect the death rate per case.

My point is if you reduce the distance between each point and the mean enough by messing with the scale, eventually everything will look like they're on a straight line. How else are they gonna make 1.6% (SK) to appear more or less in line with 11% (IT)?It's a log graph, which is totally appropriate.
But I realized I accidentally posted this in the wrong thread.
Will delete and repost in the coronavirus thread.
