I agree, but I'm also not sure that it is a particularly important distinction. He was repeatedly warned that attention is required with this system and yet clearly was not paying attention at the time of the crash.

I'm a little more cynical about that, tbh. I feel like they will ultimately offer most of these to the leasee as a purchase option, they just aren't providing the buyout price up-front.

You are exactly right, and a lot of these frameworks that do "hot reload" for other languages are fundamentally doing similar things. Granted, there are advantages to things like JRebel that can also preserve state, but I feel lik

TBH, I'm not convinced that a great effort to think about "how to stage changes that span many repos" is always (or maybe even often) a benefit. It seems like the simpler approach of just making it easy to make multimodule ch

I guess that is possible, but I think it is just as likely that people just overestimate the requirement. My Pi is practically idling while pushing ~100Mbit between the builtin Ethernet and an external dongle. Routing really doesn't ta

VPN is a good point. I don't think that I could get anywhere near 100Mbit with my Pi on OpenVPN, though in practice it is enough for what I need it for (access to home automation and maybe a couple of cameras).

No, routers do not require much CPU power. Typical consumer routers often have really limited CPUs. The biggest issue is getting enough bandwidth out of the Ethernet ports. For example, a Pi 3B+ can only handle 200Mbit or so. Whether that i

I'm not sure why you would need anywhere near this level of CPU for a "go-to" router. Many of the ARM-based systems with gigabit and USB3 are perfectly suitable as routers.

Exactly... it would be crazy if they were ordering them without knowing if it was in the US or China, perhaps. But choosing between two existing US plants that are a <250 miles apart? That might be strange, but it isn't nonsensical.

The ASP of Model 3 in the US is ~50k, if I'm not mistaken. The base price is just under $40k USD. In the US, the base price for the BMW 3 series ranges from ~40K to ~$56k for the M badge. Also, the options packages for the BMW will ten

Yeah, they also affirmed guidance of similar S and X sales to Q4 at the same time. By that point, they should have had a pretty good idea that those would drop. There is a real credibility problem here.

That was part of it, but also an extra $2,500 for 20 miles more range and a much nicer car was a very appealing offer. I certainly would have taken it.

They are slightly overproducing the SR+ (with fewer battery cells) and slight underproducing the LR (with more cells). What does that tell you about supply constraints?

That was the initial claim. It sounds like they might not actually be turning those off, though.

I just can't agree with that on the model 3. The model 3 is basically BM 3 series money, and there is nothing particularly phenomenal about the BMW 3 series from a luxury standpoint.

That is really not true. Each individual car is sold for more than the cost of manufacturer. Statistics like this tend to take fixed costs and historical costs into account in a way that shouldn't be divided by unit volume. I caution y

The only bit there that I disagree with is the battery swap. They actually did that, and I think it pretty visibly demonstrated what a dead end that approach was likely to be. Otherwise, though, you are right, and they even prepped for that

To be fair to Tesla, the "profits from here on out" statements came with some caveats around Q1 2019. I get the feeling that they have moved even more one time charges into the one-time-bad-really-bad quarter as a result. To be fa

Alternatively, a lot more IBMers will be able to use Fedora and it may improve even more. I don't see them having a strong reason to do any damange there.

Yeah, I definitely see that perspective. But I also see the trendline of our usage steadily increasing, and the older pricing models would get amazingly expensive for heavier users. As it is, there are some cheaper options as well (eg, cons
