ars has a solid article up looking at how close tesla is to running out of cash

quote:

The company burned through more than $1 billion in the first quarter of 2018, ending the quarter with less than $2.7 billion in the bank. Tesla likely has even less than that today�we'll find out how much less when Tesla announces its second quarter financial results next week.

Adding to the pressure is Tesla's massive debt. Tesla has more than $10 billion in total debt, and more than $1 billion of that could come due in the next eight months.

In recent months, Tesla has taken a series of measures to shore up its financial position. Tesla laid off about nine percent of its workforce last month in a major cost-cutting step. Tesla also opened up Model 3 orders to everyone in the US and Canada. Placing an order requires a $2,500 deposit, which will give the company an additional cash infusion.

Then this week, The Wall Street Journal reported that Tesla was pressuring suppliers for more favorable financial terms�including, in at least one case, partial retroactive refunds of past payments. According to the Journal, a memo to one supplier "described the request as essential to Tesla�s continued operation." Asked about this, a Tesla spokesperson told Ars that the company has "asked fewer than 10 suppliers for a reduction in total capex project spending for long-term projects that began in 2016 but are still not complete." Tesla says that with other suppliers, it has only asked for lower prices for future orders.

The most important thing that will�hopefully�reduce Tesla's cash burn rate is achieving volume production of its Model 3 vehicles. Work on the Model 3 assembly line should be winding down�reducing capital spending�while increased production of Model 3 cars should mean more money coming in from customers.

Her performer name was chosen because at the time, MySpace allowed you to list three musical genres. She listed grime for all three, before knowing what grime music was.

supposedly she named herself after grime music, which is basically a british version of trap

her actual music is mostly generic edm. not real interesting imo, but i guess it would serve its purpose in a dance club
