First you say that corporations can't be trusted, then also the government can't be trusted when they say everything is fine? Is sounds like you just have a problem with authority. Even with all nuclear disasters included it is st

You seem very confused on the basic concept of morality. It used to be perfectly legal for companies to openly refuse to hire or serve black people, or even let them in the building. Many people felt this was morally wrong, even though it

There were people in Palo Alto and Fremont literally harassing employees trying to get them to confess that Elon is lying. Multiple Tesla test vehicles were run off the road. Tesla filed multiple restraining orders against people dedicated

Nearly all great leaders in history can be described as "not a nice person". It doesn't redeem them. Nor does it redeem Jobs. But being an asshole doesn't, in any way, diminish one's outsized impact on society.

Reasonable to who? If they didn't fire that recruiter, they risked off-setting the delicate employee cartel balance they had going. It was a summary execution to show they were serious so they could keep Jobs from unleashing his recrui

This is entirely due to their banking sector and not at all to entrepreneurship or innovation.

Yes, everyone in Switzerland has a gun but you left out a very important detail: ammo is illegal to own.

Wrong. They are about gun ownership . Any rights are simply to enable more purchasing. Buying more guns makes the manufacturers happy.

You sound like a gun industry rep. "Everyone should own a car" is what a car lobbyist says. "Everyone should own a gun" is what a gun lobbyist says.

That's absurd. The Bill of Rights is literally a list of changes to the constitution. Any one of them can be changed at any time by a majority of states. You're essentially saying that if the majority of the country votes to chang

This is silly, because Gun laws are a central part of the platform and can't be abandoned. This is like saying if Republicans just dropped anti-immigration from their platform they'd gain a ton of people who don't vote for th

You've very clearly never been to an actual third world country. Having homeless people and a high crime rate does not == 3rd world. In fact, it only means many, many people want to live there due to the overwhelming economic prosperit

What do you mean what's the point? Don't be intentionally obtuse. The point is that those people died due to labor practices of the time, not some tragic fluke accident.

This is an incredibly misleading way to talk about this. First, there are ~200 countries, not 106. Second, Puerto Rico IS the USA. Third, "84th most polluted" out of a list of 106, is just a weird way to talk. It's like sayin

I would say it's not "clear" at all, you're putting the cart before the horse. The long range model S can drive from SF to LA on a single charge. Even taking into account a supercharge stop, it takes <10 minutes to ch

Hate speech is not "wrongthink". Don't defend racists by pretending they are just thinking outside the box.

It's actually the other way around. If takes more effort to lower yourself into a large gravity well than a small one. Traveling anywhere outside of Earth's gravity means you are always going to fall into a well, so the smaller th

You have to admit that those unconvinced people doing that equation are unbelievably selfish, as they are certainly not including the cost of spreading COVID to an immunocompromised person in that last term. The question being asked is &quo

India also has 32X smaller GDP per capita. Meaning they produce 16X more emissions per unit of productivity than America.

ha yes. Gas is wildly subsidized so consumers have cheap fuel prices to support the car based economy. Same as corn, dairy, etc...

They already have chargers for the masses. Superchargers are all over the place and charge nearly as fast as filling up a tank. Most people wildly underestimate how much time they spend at a gas station filling up gas anyway. Range is not r

Basically all superchargers are placed next to food and the major highways. It's not "who knows where". Your car knows where and its right off the interstate in a parking lot next to a lot of places to eat. Better than most g

Interesting point. Although, a 5cm nail is tiny, that's like what you'd use to hang a picture on the wall. A real carpenter's nail is what I was picturing and that's more like 10-15cm which 2-3x's your impact depth

This a pretty unfair comparison. Apple doesn't take a cut of any online purchases made through Safari. They also don't take a cut of any in-app purchases for physical goods. They only take a cut of purchases for digital good purch

Hard disagree. Gmail maybe. Providing email as a utility service is a strained argument but could be made as there is a parallel to actual mail service. Literally everything else Google does has a mainstream alternative that is a click away
