Not sure where you saw this, the Quest Pro has built in speakers. Straps are detachable, comes in-box.

I mean this has been the core issue of journalists since FB started to render page previews for users. The whole "FB Bad" news cycle, in my opinion, is primarily the result of traditional media feeling threatened by FB "freel

A oft-told tale in FB. Zuck rewrote memcached for FB in 2005. Either you or he is slightly misremembering the story.

I'm aware. It's difficult to have a causational discussion with someone continually using correlational evidence. If I say with "provide a reason why Elon is necessary to the success of the company", and you respond with

How so?

Awesome, so we agree that Elon isn't attributable for the success of Tesla. The owner of the team matters less to the success of the team than the participants, as is easily proven by the argument you have just made. If Elon had consis

So a person that wins the lottery twice is good at the lottery? You need to make a causational argument, and so far everyone in this thread has replied with a correlationary argument.

This is a great analogy. Would you say that Michael Jordan is only successful because of the owner of the team he played for?

If I were to argue that Tesla succeeded in spite of Elon, how would you disprove that? I could point to his bitcoin investments, many discrimination cases, failure to release Autopilot (against his own promises), SEC action, and Tesla share

Then how is that a convincing argument that Elon is the reason that Tesla is successful.

So the willingness of the founder to stay/leave is the only metric for the long-term success of the company?

by camdat 4y ago
Survivorship bias. Elon has led many failed companies, success doesn't imply correlation.

> Even with Elon the company barely made it many times This is the crux of my argument. If Tesla failed, would it been because of Elon? Did X.com, Boring Co., etc fail because of Elon?

by camdat 4y ago
Tesla already existed before Elon. Can you make the case that they wouldn't have been as successful without him? I don't see any specific performance that would indicate that he's instrumental to their success.

And? I'm not sure what this has to do with actual leaked data. I'm sure that many companies do not have a high quality data monitoring system, but very few actually leak data to the public.
