I don't remember the details, but in one of the recent updates they increased the performance at top speed and initial start (below 3 mph). Prior to that, 85D and 90D (all-wheel drive configuration) got a significant boost to its 0-60 performance via a software update.

Since all the hardware is controlled via a software firmware, they are able to tweak the voltage supply of each motor to decrease or increase output performance.

If you own a Tesla Model S and live near a supercharger network, charging is not an issue. Over 8,000 miles in my Model S, all powered exclusively by the superchargers, free of charge.

Note: I live in an apartment less than 2 miles from the nearest supercharger in Los Angeles and only 8 miles from work. So, the range is never a problem.

That was my initial reaction as well. Pretty interesting concept. Front page Hacker News web traffic to your website in real-time.

Meh, mixins are anti-pattern and I am glad they are finally gone. In my experience mixins just make your code hard to read.

I actually commute every day via 405 and 10. You are right, it's awful during the rush hour, but during non-rush hours it is still faster than taking local streets. A few weeks ago I left work via 405 at 4:45pm and arrived home at 7:10pm, the commute that would take no more than 12-15 minutes without traffic.

It's nice to see Google using Polymer.js on their pages.
