Why is everyone in this thread pushing the idea that Bezos is scared of Trump? It seems more plausible to me he is scared of the DoJ breaking up Amazon under Harris.

It's east to think that way but if it didn't matter, Bezos wouldn't have squashed it.

Talk to people who have actually worked in the games industry. It's terrible.

If this is your position then you might as well stop using any computing devices of any kind. Which includes any kind of smart devices. Since you obviously aren't doing that, then you're trying to hold Apple to a standard you won&

I think you're confused. Model Y refresh is coming. He said $25k car other than robotaxi makes no sense and is antithetical to their vision of autonomous future.

Musk did announce there's no such thing coming. Only robotaxi.

How much of the supercharger growth was stuff that was already in progress or done prior to the layoffs? How big would the growth have been without the layoffs? They did hire some amount of the team back. Also Tesla is way behind on V4 (hig

The trend of hyping up papers too early on is eroding people's faith in science due to poor journalism failing to explain that this is theoretical. The outlets that do this should pay the price but they don't, because almost every

Your crediting the work of thousands of talented people to him while similtaneously dismissing the lies that are solely his is very weird to me. Especially for someone saying trustworthiness in CEOs is so important. (I am not a Sam Altman f

Of course. I never said they were. But sociopaths do tend to be very comfortable lying and backstabbing.

That's an interesting way to characterize Elon's history. "Ambitious deadlines" implies you are believe he will one day deliver on the many, many claims he's made that have never happened. SpaceX and Tesla have both

Elon Musk alone disproves your theory. I wish I agreed with you, I'm sure I'd be happier. But there's just too many successful sociopaths. Hell there was a popular book about it.

"Teachers use chalk daily." - definitely a true statement. Some amount of teachers do. "All teachers use chalk daily." - definitely a false statement. Certainly some teachers don't. Again, English 101.

I am not at all "worked up". It is literally hilarious to think loan officers know anything about cars.

Tesla has high insurance and potentially repair costs (in the case of an accident) because of how they construct their vehicles; lots of glue and permanent bonding of components. They prioritized ease of construction and not repairability i

LMAO. No, they absolutely do not. Tbat is not a prerequisite of financing vehicles. Not remotely. It is absolutely hilarious you think they do.

The people at your credit union know nothing about car reliability. There have been studies about EV reliability and it is much higher than any ICE vehicles. Battery degradation is averaging 1-1.5% per year, which is basically nothing. St

Oh yes it's just illegal immigrants that Republicans hate. That's why they spread lies about refugees and other legal immigrants, right?

You are talking out of your posterior. EVs are far more reliable and have less maintenance than ICE vehicles.

Yeah that's a mistaken take to begin with. It also doesn't make a lot of sense to absolve WP Core of allowing plugins to cause chaos. If WP had a secure model for plugins then they could be far more limited in what they can do. Bu

I wish the title was true. I was at WordCamp 2014 or 2015 where Matt was asked about improving security in WordPress and he literally laughed at the question. So, yeah...

They don't have to be selling them to gain financially off of lies. They were obviously trying to juice the stock price.

BBSes were a big part of my pre-teen years, before dial up internet access became available in my area. Really difficult to explain to younger folks what it was like. XMODEM was the file transfer protocol for more than a decade, as I reca

Same as it ever was. AI doesn't really add anything. Credulous people are easy to trick.

This is a terrible post. Most professional typesetters/publishers use macOS for a reason and have for decades. Also this blog post is 5 years old and woefully out of date anyway.

No, it's because most Americans know nothing about actual issues and treat politics as a team sport. So there's as much point in talking about it with other people as there is talking about the Mets vs the Yankees or whatever.

That part of the comment is not true.
