So much of the web is powered by PHP. Wikipedia (MediaWiki software) and Facebook are two of the largest footprints of usage. And of course, WordPress. PHP has a lot of firepower behind it.

Macbook Pros cost far more than Chromebooks. MBPs are 4x to 10x the price. They shouldn't be compared apples to apples.

Connections were much slower back then. Sometimes you'd go a few seconds or more without anything happening on the screen. The loading animation was nice so you knew your browser wasn't frozen.

Regardless of our disagreements on Tesla -- this is a great list and really interesting to see all these OEMs, in order. Thanks for this good stuff. Upvoted. I didn't know Peugeot was the oldest of the gang!

Tesla is not a startup! It's been in business for 18 years.

The fires aren't just in the paint shop. They are all around the factory property. Inside and outside. Garbage fires on the lot happen about once a year. Regardless, you are trying to say that paint shop fires mean they just need a new

"He's just doing what a CEO does." I disagree. At a certain point, Musk turned the corner and became delusional. It's beyond simple boasting now.

Tesla's manufacturing capabilities are child's play in the automotive industry. Nothing Tesla has done here is revolutionary. Their quality control is abysmal compared to other major OEMs. They make the Model 3 in a tent. There ar

Here's my take on Tesla. It's an 18 year old company that has never been profitable on an annual basis. It's had 4 profitable quarters out of 72 tries. It has over $9 billion in debt. The future is bleak with these financials

Tesla is burning cash at an alarming rate. The question is if there exists a medium-term future at all for this company. Musk himself said last year that Tesla at one point was single-digit weeks from bankruptcy.

In a vacuum, yes. But if you look at the large amount of evidence about Tesla's brand and consumer sentiment, the brand is taking a beating lately. It's a tangible shift.

Specifically what remains? They are basically the only OEM pushing self driving without lidar. Their manufacturing facilities are childish compared to other large automakers. Solar City, powerwall, and the solar roof are huge money losers a

Do you also love it when Musk calls people pedos? What about when he lies about taking the company private on Twitter? This is the narcissism you enjoy?

Tesla has about $9B in debt. They are not an attractive takeover candidate. They've never turned an annual profit.

I think it's unlikely they'll be acquired. Tesla has about $9B in debt, had never been profitable on an annual basis, and most other automakers are plowing forward with their own EVs. I don't see much upside in acquiring Tesl

Looks to me like they are copying the entire concept, not just the docs. Seems like very little intellectual creativity went into the creation of their API.

"so I can instantly change my game session from my phone to my TV?" Clearly the latency advantage is the main benefit. Just as stated in the quote you used. Can you explain why that is a horrible design choice?
