It seems very far fetched.
To me, it mitigates the problem slightly by making it less hidden.
It’s basically hedged with long term bonds (Belgian or European) + a profit margin for the bank + risk based on your profile (age, health, employment history, …)
I guess UK banks are just hedging with shorter term bonds compared to Belgian ones.
So I’m not sure that the US is actually an exception.
Tesla should probably not allow you to show the battery as range as it will always be inaccurate and people will complain. But if they only show percentages, people complain as well.
I’m running a SaaS turning affiliate platform content into an API which can be looked up by EAN13 : https://datafeedapi.com
Current users are publishers wanting to display affiliate links on their website but I could probably repurpose it for a more generic product search API without the affiliate links and different pricing. If anyone is interested, you can reach me at patrick_[at]_datafeedapi.com

You may have funded the account last year and did nothing with it. My understanding is you would still count as an MAU even if you didn’t interact with RH.
If I understood correctly some are used as a backbone for their internet infrastructure and some on the field on moving vehicles. The $110 plan wouldn’t cover those use cases.
If you have a balance of $1, wouldn’t you be counted as an active user ?
It sounds to me that an active user is someone with funds or that interacted with the app/website while logged in. I’m not sure the second category made much sense to begin with (unless you wanted to inflate the numbers during a bull run)
While this might not be needed in Sweden, it's more interesting further south. I live in Belgium and we had a long heatwave this summer and they predict more of those in the coming years. So cheap efficient cooling might turn out useful here (even if nobody had AC systems 20 years ago)
It also has the extra benefit of heating up your ground for the winter period.
If you don't have many kids, you should probably look at cars that are only electric and designed for it: Tesla, Polestar, VW ID.3/4, Skoda Enyaq, Volva XC40 Recharge, ... You'll get better regenerative break which means that you'll recharge your battery when going downhill and better efficiency.
Without any changes to your home, you can charge your car at 3.6kW and there might be public chargers at 11kW around where you live and shop. I've spent a few weeks with a Tesla Model 3 SR+ (50kW battery) in the mountains of the Val d'Anniviers (Valais) where I couldn't charge at the chalet and I didn't have any issue to drive around and find chargers.
What did you expect from Tesla powerwall ? It's another use of the same battery tech they had in their cars allowing them to use the same supply to build two products. Most of the added value of the powerwall is in the software and the battery management, not in the form-factor of the batteries. I suppose most home batteries are just repackaging batteries used in other industries.
But nobody seems to quote the TUV directly or link to the actual report
Or do you not care because you’ve installed massive batteries?
I’m looking into installing a ground heat pump in a new house (coupled with solar panels) mostly for environmental reasons and all the critics I’ve read so far were about the costs.
Otherwise you don’t need to have superchargers, you can just use a normal charger which is a few hundreds dollars, probably less at the scale of Hertz.
Makes little sense for Tesla to sell at low margin when they are supply constrained.
They moved to the current model of providing an API for Amazon data (which seems to use the extensions users to scrape data).
At least cheaper than going to actual space and longer than using parabolic flights in planes.
