   The read me could benefit from a picture of what it is like to use.

   Has anyone analyzed the data?

   Nice. Here’s hoping the extra freedom causes wages to rise and employers work to keep employees with benefits instead of handcuffs.

   Where does this end? No central bank and all dollars are backed by bitcoin?

   That’ll never happen. They love him. Everyone in his orbit thinks he can do no wrong. The man is a walking, talking, seemingly-god to these folks.

   Are you thinking about the dollar leaving the gold standard?

   No. It should be easier.

   Same here. Data Eng by day but looking to move away from Python but Go and Rust i dunno doesn't feel like a good replacement for it plus the Python ecosystem in the data space is huge.

    Have they ever talked about why the content isn't stored/read from ZFS just the root pool?

    6M in total UBER spend is it really a worthwhile chunk of change? I mean I’m here for the tech of course just curious from the cost benefit part.

    It's like someone was thinking of me! I've been missing such things on Mac. Toying with Yabai and others. Love seeing work in this space.

    When I grow up I want to be half as competent as her at programming. Holy smokes. Bravo.

    Pay him his dues? He’s fully vested. He has enough equity. More equity isn’t going to make him focus on Tesla more it’s just going to pay for Twitter.

    That kind of out of the box thinking is where I think the industry should go. But would it scale to the Google's of the world? Probably not. They'll continue filtering people through the sieve that is the leet-code style interview

    I don’t think anyone is saying in a traditional SWE role data structures and algorithms aren’t useful things to have some me amount of mastery about (higher levels required for higher levels of seniority maybe)… but it’s just hilarious and

    3Dfx had the best looking box art by far.

    Yup! The BP6 and the VP6 from Abit. Good memories! Remember old boards from Epox? Or the TNT2 ultra? But yeah my favorite was getting SMP for free using celerons when they weren’t supposed to be able to do it.

    Nah he was kept on because he became larger than life and gave Tesla huge marketing reach for basically free. What other car brand didn’t need to advertise but yet grew mindshare?

    You think he was the only smart guy in the room? He was the money man who happened to be smart. But to pull off Tesla requires a ton of smart people not just Elon. So no. This isn’t Reddit but this isn’t also X.com. Reality exists here.

    What did he do though? Bet on electric vehicles taking off? Okay. Right place, right time. That’s not very magical.

    I was way into computers around this time. I remember the race to 1ghz. I remember the monumental change when AMD put the memory controller on die. Such awesome memories. I had durons, coppermines, slotted CPUs, dual Celerons hacked to work

    As they should. I agree. He’s got plenty of ownership. This is just a rouse to get Tesla to pay for Twitter.

    He wouldn’t be getting profits or a cash transfer but more ownership of the company. It’s options that at the time when they were thought up the company was worth far less. The number quoted now is only as giant as it is because Tesla is va
