The split of opinion on this in tech circles is quite surprising. No agency would voluntarily modernize systems, which would inevitably reduce head count and put half of them out of jobs. This has been a on-going fight for 30 years. Every p

I violently recoil at comments like this. Elon is so effective as a leader he seems to break people’s brains. No other person could have started this company and had even half this success. There’s a reason all the most talented flock to hi

Reasonable take not allowed. Must be for or against so I know what ideological bucket to place you in based on current tribal alliances that may or may not change.

Using AI for market price discovery actually sounds like a valuable use case.

My experience with Prisma, which has a very similar DSL for defining schemas, has changed my mind on this. Makes me much more productive when maintaining large schemas. I can make a one line change in the schema file and instantly have type

The entire plan hinges on low cost high volume. That means reducing parts and complexity. Stainless steel body so no paint shop or variations to worry about, or paint maintenance, etc. removing steering wheel, removing glass roof, removing

They literally showed a clip of a robot cleaning the car in the announcement. Also perfect task for Optimus.

Just in California, right? What’s the prevent a studio elsewhere from doing this? Online distribution makes the legal borders meaningless here. So people in California will just need a VPN to watch future action movies?

The potential implications of this are huge. Not just open sourcing, but imagine easily decompiling and modifying proprietary apps to fix bugs or add features. This could be a huge unlock, especially for long dead programs. For legal reason

Correct. Surprised more people aren’t aware of this. Twitter literally can’t launch it payments service while still having SF as HQ.

Good for tessellation only if chips are also hexagons. Arguably chips themselves could be hexagons for better pin density and potentially thermal properties. Surprised nobody has tried this before.

Reputation damage through faux media is the cheapest form of information warfare. Many industries, and now days many world governments, have a deeply vested interest in Elon failing.

For years I've had `gc` in my terminal mapped to `TZ=UTC0 git commit` for exactly this reason. No need to change system times or git settings. (though perhaps a better way in global config?) It's not even for nefarious reasons. I

What light switches did you use, if any? I also want to use Shelly dimmers, but I haven’t found simple stateless light switches. I want automation and app control in many cases, but also want simple tactile button for on/off or hold fo

In the short-term the ASICs won't come from startups. Think companies that already have custom silicon + deep pockets + a need to squeeze every watt at scale. Eg, Google (TPU), Apple (NPU), Amazon, Telsa (Dojo), Microsoft/OpenAI,

Nvidia should enjoy this period while it lasts. I fail to see any future where custom ASICs don't each their lunch. There's so much opportunity for custom silicon to massively improve compute-per-watt -- for both for training and

Probably in minority here; I currently work remote, but miss going to the office. Will consider non-remote roles in the future.

FWIW, I went from gmail -> protonmail -> fastmail, and have been very happy with fastmail. protonmail is great as a secure disposable email, but as a go-to daily email service I found it too difficult to manage. Hard to use other emai

I think ARM is upset their NVidia buy-out was cancelled. This essentially forces someone else to purchase the company, as the total license fees for a company like Google/Apple could outstrip the straight acquisition cost. It's th

This resonates, as I've had bad experiences with being "too into" things when I was younger. Eg, being called a "fanboy" in a derogatory way, just because I'm really passionate about a specific hobby, product,

Being able to do real remote work, including real time video calls, while on a plane is actually game changing. I'm sure this will eventually become standard on most airlines, especially for Business Class.

Recycling is already a key focus, as batteries are very mineral rich, and at scale much cheaper to refine locally than to mine & import with long supply chains. For those that doubt it's possible to collect spent batteries; recycli

It's amazing to me how short-sighted many views on Apple Car are. Service is key. Apple won't be following the model of the existing car makers. They WILL NOT sell cars direct to consumer. That's the key insight. They will no
