Yea that’s the thing, if you have $40,000 to spend on an electric car it would be insane to not get a Tesla.

You need 300 mile rated range bare minimum or you are going to be in for a lot of headaches. That range is only actually 300 miles when the climate is good (not too cold) and you are driving like a grandma. If you're in a cold climate

The price was artificially low due to abuse from short sellers who have finally given up over the last few months. You can see based on the chart of short interest vs. stock price. Now it may have swung in the opposite direction, the stock

Cures and vaccines would be great but I feel like we are missing an opportunity with improved testing not just for cancer but also for infectious diseases. Imagine a toilet that can detect a UTI/STI or parasite or a monitor in my room

It seems like the perfect way to generate SEO-optimized text on a variety of subjects very quickly without actually saying anything new or interesting. God help us all.

You can’t possibly know. You have to just assume all VPN companies are logging your activity indefinitely regardless of what they say. Though I suppose you’d rather go with a VPN company that claims it doesn’t do any logging, over one that

I am not talking about startups competing for the same contracts, I am talking about startups competing with a large company in their line of business. Blockbuster couldn’t hire Accenture to create Netflix, for instance.

Don’t gripe, celebrate it! Huge companies getting conned by large consulting firms creates opportunities for startups. If Deloitte and others were actually good at what they do, it’s be much harder to compete. Large companies blowing a hole

The point is to screen outrageously out of character or dangerous tweets, for instance Hillary Clinton giving away bitcoin, or a politician declaring war on another country. Something timid or benign slipping through is not that big of a de

Seems to me twitter should hire some humans to sit there and manually approve every tweet by all VIP accounts before they go live. How hard could that be? If that’s all they do you’re adding maybe a 30 second delay to every VIP tweet and yo

Not disagreeing with you except about the cleaning fee. Hotels usually clean every room every day and have an on-site cleaning staff. The marginal cost to clean one room is pretty low, and it happens every day while you’re there, so it’s ba

Even if you agree with him in principal I don’t see how anyone could stomach shorting a growth stock for 5+ years like he suggests. How much would you lose just on interest paid to borrow the shares for that long? So maybe he’s talking abou
