Update zoning? Humans are breeding creatures. Like all animals, they will reproduce to fill their available habitat and back pressure is needed to keep the population from strangling this planet.

Atlas Shrugged is a much more of a bore than this content. At least this analysis is based in reality.

When you pay for FSD part of a lease, then return the car before any part of FSD was ever released to the public (and thus available to you), Tesla refuses to refund. Outright, bald faced fraud.

Autopilot is typically driven only in the newest cars by the richest people in ideal conditions. Heck, Autopilot disengages when it gets confused, which is often. And even with all of that, the fatality rate (at least the ones we know if) i

That's $0.12/watt, which is nothing when amortized over dozens of years. Residential solar in California is roughly $2.75/watt installed and a recent utility scale solar project in Nevada looks to be coming in at $0.70/w

Grid solar is so much cheaper than residential solar. Net metering is a waste of money, which could be better spent on utility scale renewables.

Fraud does not need a contract. My understanding is that it has three elements: First, the perpetrator has to provide a false statement as a material fact. Second, the perpetrator had to have known that the statement was untrue. Third, the

I agree, this is fruit fly startup which will eventually fail. I can’t believe anyone could think this would be successful. It might do something interesting before it dies, though.

One can have identity without centralization; look at PKI. I don’t need to create an account with some website in order to use SSH.

You misunderstand, completely. A device needn't download all activity, or indeed download anything additional at all. It knows which ads it clicked on and it knows the conversion signal for each ad the user saw. It can thus easily coun

The DoD seems well on its way towards having two more such networks (augmenting the one it already has in existence), without the involvement of SpaceX at all: https://spacenews.com/u-s-to-ramp-up-spending-on-classified-...

DoD iPhones can only be used for “For official use only” information—that is, unclassified data.

That's unfortunate.

How much of SpaceX's technology contains components sourced from abroad, and/or China? My bet is that it's enough to kill any national interest in defense applications.

That’s not true. They could use differentially private on-device joins using anonymously downloaded ad data. Or they could securely aggregate the results. Or both.

Did you know that organized religions were invented to exploit gullible people like yourself? Today, politicians, propagandists and populists use the same honed techniques.
