I'm not the OP, and I don't know about Polestar specifically, but I've worked with many other vehicle systems, and they are incredibly complex. Each ECU in a car is running it's own firmware, and the larger ones can be r

A lot of Wall Street seems to have issues with non GAAP accounting metrics like Annual Recurring Revenue (based on the the few earnings meeting I've listened in on), I don't have high hopes that this would work.

I think if we found the beginning causal chain, then that would be falsifiable... theoretically. Assuming God = Beginning of the causal chain, Finding this prime mover becomes a tangible physical hypothesis. I don't think most religiou

I agree with this, but we don't really know if the universe is God using this infinite regress definition. The cool part about this definition of God, is that it necessitates the existence by definition, and gives a falsifiable hypothe

They only get you from claim A to claim B when there is enough traffic to invest in roads and if people follow the rules. A more versatile set of analogirs are of course ATVs, Aircraft, or even the humble legs.

The biggest benefit I see is lack of side-effects. With a functional program you can be sure that your can safely call any function without having to worry about the current state of your app. A proper functional program can start to do ver

Honestly this is very impressive. You definitely have what it takes to survive an apocalypse. I also think that level of caution is warranted in an unknown pathogenic environment. Was food delivery not an option, or were you worried about t
