Is @Enphase going to offer any plug-in balcony solar products? Would love to add a few panels to my existing system. Plug in makes sense because it’d be over the pool equipment, don’t want to run a line back to the combiner box. There’s a convenient outlet right there…

We're hiring at the National Design Studio! Yesterday we launched America.gov, the first step toward replacing thousands of outdated government websites with one product. You can ask it anything and get an answer from a verified government source. But this is just the start. Next, we're building features that let you renew your passport, enroll in Medicare, and book a campsite at a national park, and so much more, all in one place. We're looking for great engineers and designers to help build it. If that sounds like you, my DMs are open

Was the final reason I still used my phone.
Real-time alerts from Waze are coming to R1 and R2 in-vehicle navigation, starting with speed cameras and police reports in the 2026.31 OTA update. More data and alerts to follow!

Here's what we've been up to these past months! A whole new design language for Rivian, across the vehicles, web, mobile, and even down to our internal tools. We put together a little something to celebrate the hard work that went into every last pixel.

Woah did not see that coming! Still no “oh shit” bars though…

Read all the support articles, but if someone hacked and took over an old @Apple account and changed its email, it sounds like I'm SOL? Doesn't seem to be a way to recover it or alert Apple. Received an email notice w/ the username and prior email.

Could be a cool collab @redbullracing x @JetKidscom. cc @F1

Very cool... but that Sign in > Sign in is a bit confusing.
Today we're introducing Claude for Hardware. Just enter your hardware idea and Blueprint gives you an entire hardware plan for your build. What becomes possible now is insane.

Had some intermittent issues with the front middle light bar going out on the @Rivian R1S. Booked an appointment at the Costa Mesa SC a week out. Arrived 20 min. late. They quickly reviewed diagnostics, confirmed the part (T00000466-N) was in stock and had me out in an hour. 👏 – at Costa Mesa, CA

Wife will definitely prefer the car-like driving dynamics of the R2 vs. the truck-like R1. Lighter pedal resistance. R2 feels lighter overall, I found myself bracing less when going over bumps, less oscillation... guess you can't fight physics.

For the R1 owners that dented their rear quarter panel (blind spot in the Gen 1 sensors/cameras), you'll appreciate the split body panel (to align w/ the charging port on the other side). If you really don't need the third row or a pickup truck, the R2 knocks it out of the park.

Elmo, who hails from the fictional Sesame Street located in Manhattan, dared to wish both the Knicks and Spurs good luck in the NBA Finals on Wednesday, writing on X: “Elmo hopes both teams have fun!” New Yorkers had a lot to say: nyti.ms/3RO6bed

Spotted the @FaradayFuture FX Super One minivan in town. They need to drop the gimmicks, forget the animated fascia and all the AI B$. Just own up to it being an SKD rebadged Wey Gaoshan 9, get aggressive about pricing and it’ll sell.

Rode in the Gaoshan 9 from Shenzhen to Zhuhai in December. Ride quality was great, build quality was also stellar. Amenities would crush the competition in the U.S. Can’t comment on how it drives or the reliability. Though the driver was hands free for the majority of the ride.
