Some of us aren't "accepting" anything. We're just reading about a potential cause of an incident and speculating about how it could happen to us or could have been prevented. Just because we're reading this article

If you're going to go that far it should also drop connections randomly and shout "I need to use the phone!" in a mother's voice. NO CARRIER

Very true. But announcing it ahead of time and providing time for a wind down also would've required a comms team.

Normally, hiring 11,000 people you "didn't need" would be a warning sign that management was incompetent and require much more than just laying off the unneeded workers. It would suggest that large reforms are needed in plann

This seems like it could turn out to be a disaster if the company decides to do a 10-15% "across the board" cut, as many seem to be doing.

It sounds more like there are a pair of systems where one operates as the primary and the other as a backup, and these can swap in case of problems with the primary. That's fairly typical in critical infrastructure. I've done test

Do you know that each of these systems actually has a defined "owner"? It's part of the FISMA process and every so often these "owners" have to attest that certain security processes are in place and functioning and

It's been several years since I've done contracting work (and for the FAA no less), but that can't really happen to the extent you're implying. The open roles for contract positions specify a pay range based on experienc

I'm not sure that counts as a "stake". He did found the company so I'm sure he still has connections there.

He had to completely disconnect from OpenAI due to the conflict of interest with Tesla AI.

That would be true whether they "took responsibility" or not.

That's the general consensus, especially around YC companies. Didn't they send out warnings early last year suggesting people cut early and deep? I really don't think Salesforce falls into that category though. They aren&#x27

I always used to laugh when people would bring up battery tech and solar when talking about TSLA's absurd valuation, but I think it's starting to become more relevant as it approaches a more realistic market cap. It's still t

I don't mean to be dis-charitable to your comments but it sounds like you're saying that people should use the currently bigger walled garden over the currently smaller walled garden?

> According to Argonne National Lab, between 2010 and the end of 2021, the US had bought more than 2.1 million plug-in vehicles, including 1.3 million battery EVs. That sounds like a very impressive number, but bear in mind that's o

I think some people are drawn to this video because they want others to think that Jobs made big changes that were painful and he was very successful, therefore when Musk makes big changes that are painful he will also be successful. I disa

I believe they're referring to 2020 when two political campaigns were asking Twitter to remove stolen data. Of course, only one of those campaigns qualified as "the government" at the time, and many other organizations also m

They could do lots of things to comply with the new and arbitrary terms. But why? This is public info that's on many different sites and literally broadcast to anyone with a radio.

IMHO what would determine whether or not he was extradited from one of those countries is not various treaties but how much cash he brought with him.

That might work on George Stephanopoulos but it won't work against a seasoned prosecutor. It'll be interesting to see if he's allowed to plead the fifth for topics on which he's publicly spoken, repeatedly.

Thanks for the clarification.

For sure, a short engagement of 1-2 days would be rare. We'd occasionally do them to get a foot in the door or as a follow-up for a regular customer. We'd still not want a junior engineer on them. You want to make as good of an i

It's interesting to read about other philosophies for engagements. In the places I've worked it would be rare to send a junior engineer on a short engagement. The reason being that short engagements are usually 1 engineer, maybe 2

I'm going to stay away from the tire fire of accusations between you and the former NCC boss. But I do want to say that having run a pen testing firm for many, many years these claims aren't hard to believe. It does depend on what
