The panels fitting is a visible aspect of the quality of assembly.
If an issue that has been largely resolved by the industry decades ago is still present in this luxury segment (Model X *is* a luxury car), then I'm wondering what other build quality issues they may have in areas that are not visible...
I don't know about continual improvements in Tesla's case.
I was sitting today at a stoplight behind a brand new Tesla Model X and couldn't not notice how the gap between the hatch and the body was maybe 1/8 of an inch on the left side and almost 1/2" on the right side...
Not even early Kias had such a bad body fitting.
I seriously doubt that many current

You drank too much...
The really sad part is that *that* side keeps saying "we should help people" but in reality never does. It's all talk, but when push comes to shove they're morphing into the *other* side...
If you really can't see that bideN, pelosI and mcconnelL are part of the same party (the party of grifters), then you're not aging well and should test your cognitive skills.
If hiring 5 H1-Bs who are willing to work harder for a salary (under threat of deportation) increases the salary/productivity ratio for everyone else, then it's a win.
Addressing the salaries of H1-Bs is not the solution to the problem. Their salaries are already fairly competitive.
You're deluding yourself, are outright disingenuous, or were born yesterday. The threat of deportation may be an incentive for the H1B visa holder to work harder, but the major motivation is to depress the salary expectations for a particular skill set. If the talent required was so scarce locally that you had to import someone with the skills, you should pay them accordingly, not less just because you "own them" until they can get a GC.
This is an old topic that
Even in 2010 and 20111, with the exception of the top end of the market, housing prices didn't really drop that much, largely because sellers held rather than selling. So it shows no such thing.
I know that the plural of anecdote is not data, but my experience in the middle of the Bay Area doesn't fit at all your rosy narrative. The value of my home dropped by about 20% (as assessed by the bank when I tried to refinance), while the County acknowledged 5% drop; of course, when the market rebounded, the County was very quick to get back to the original trend of keeping increasing the tax base like nothing happened.
Even most conservatives in California think that granting businesses Prop 13 protection was a mistake. The ads you see pushing back against this change are mostly funded by companies that own lots of real estate. When the total property tax bill paid by residents has grown from being about the same as the total commercial property tax bill in 1970 to being a whopping 2.4x as much now (because of companies holding and leasing rather than selling), and when those savings are mostly going into the pockets of stockholders outside the state of California, it's pretty clear that the "leg" you're talking about is screwing California taxpayers.
Again, the only time when a fair assessment can be made about the value of a property is when it's sold. Everything else is arbitrary. I don't watch ads, but I'm looking at who is pushing for Prop15: realtors and government people who can't wait to get their hands on a huge windfall to piss it in the wind with their pet projects. I am sure that they're pushing this just to right a wrong, no self-serving interests in it, no Sir!
What would be the impact on the companies affected? that is mentioned nowhere in the Voter's pamphlet I received, only how much money can be extracted. Pure greed.
Even with Prop 15, Prop 13 still won't be fair to newcomers, and it will still be a major contributor to traffic problems, but at least businesses won't be getting away with not paying their fair share of the tax revenue that pays for our schools. Vote YES on Prop 15. Your kids and grandkids will thank you.
Yeah, like the little bone thrown at us with Prop19. That bone is small and rotten, who wouldn't want to let their kids have that?
Fixing the corporate loophole is a good start, but we really should overturn the whole thing and replace it with a more sensible, targeted law that moves property tax valuations towards their actual expected market value when sold, phased in over ten years, while simultaneously adding increasingly large discounts for people with low AGI, also phased in over ten years.
I do not trust the taxman to be honest when assessing the "actual expected market value". My past experience during the hard times of 2008-2011, when the housing market value saw a significant drop yet the counties barely adjusted the tax basis, shows how they're just greedy and callous.
Repealing Prop13 is just a money grab attempt; government is salivating at the thought of how much money they could get their hands on, only to waste it on more ridiculous pet projects.
Prop15 is a sneaky attempt to sever one of the two legs Prop13 stands on. Vote NO on Prop15!
One can only hope.
Unfortunately, that useless bag of meat with hair gel on top has a good chance to get into the really safe seat of US Senator, which was vacated by KH, so we will get stuck with him for a long time.
Who are the idiots who marked the Parent comment as Flamebait? It should be either Insightful or Ironic.
Stop Anthropomorphizing Earth! She doesn't like it!
I still did not understand from your reply what exactly the POTUS should have done to make a difference. Yes, he's running his mouth and twitter account like a wind turbine, but how are these of any consequence?
Emergency makeshift hospitals have been built and provisioned in New York specifically for COVID19 patients, but in my understanding they have never been needed or used.
IMO the major harm has been done by the state-level governments, who are as inept as the POTUS (or more, NY is a clusterf*ck of a case), lack any vision or planning skills, and, in some cases, are using the COVID19 disaster to score political points.
We literally could have gotten this under control by now as over 2 dozen other countries show
There is one thing I can't understand about the people suffering from TDS: what exactly could the POTUS do or should have done to fundamentally improve the outcome?
He is just the lightning rod for his detractors and shiny beacon for his followers, but his effective power to change the outcome is limited to EOs, and, no matter how he's using them, gets pasted for it.
If you remember the Civic studies from when you attended school, *all* critical decisions impacting the COVID-19 pandemic outcome reside with the states. It's just how the USoA rolls, Orange Man may be bad but making a monster out of him is insane.
Actually super simple
It's clear that you don't understand at all how the in-class schooling is set to operate. Hint: search for the keyword "cohort".
I challenge you to be able to safely brake 100% on time when the car ahead of you keeps braking randomly, without any reason.
But maybe drivers will bake in time into their reflexes to expect that Teslas will act stupidly whenever they're approaching an intersection.
