I'd be curious to see how much of this was simply replaced by coal.

Does everyone also know about the outsize influence China has on Vietnam? If the goal is to de-risk a China / US Trade War scenario and prevent Chinese government from stealing chip tech etc - then you dont get much by going to their p

at this scale and complexity it's definitely one of the earlier projects. Apple does almost nothing "off the shelf" - tools, processes and often even materials are engineered to their specific needs. That's different fr

This is an article that paraphrases another article from the Financial Times ( https://archive.is/iuXAm ) both of which lack any real sources or facts from Apple themselves. The only people quoted are a random Bain consultant

no idea why this is getting downvoted. This is super relevant. Germany has had at best handled their Turkish immigrants in a step-motherly fashion and until today you're automatically at a huge disadvantage with a Turkish sounding name

hmm - I wouldn't be too surprised if Tesla has their electric self driving fleet of cabs out well before that.

2nd / 3rd world notions have nothing to do with GDP. There are plenty of countries (a lot of the middle east for example) that would have back when 2nd and 3rd world were relevant notions been considered 3rd world, these currently have

I actually didn't state anything about economic grouping. My point is the notion is dated - and you've illustrated that quite well with your comment. The eastern & non-aligned blocs dont exist any more & the first world ha

I agree with pads & tampons being a great invention. Can we however please finally stop referring to "2nd and 3rd world" countries. Get on a plane - things are more similar than different in most parts of the world, stop per

there's a bizarre trend in Germany in the last few months for legistlating completely unneccesary things. This is a great example. Additionally today they announced that while profits on stock trading (specifically derivatives) can be

The study has a major flaw in that it ignores the grouping effect that makes self-driving cars & fleets completely different from chauffers. Shared usage will: - most definitely happen in the case of "errand" like rides. The r

additionally - even with the best intentions (in Germany for example, we have a great deposit based system where you return bottles for recycling / reuse at your local supermarket and get the deposit back) - it turns out that recycling

thanks that helped! the RYG buttons of Mac now overlap with back reload etc - but I guess I can tweak the CSS to make that fit. Thanks again!

I created a userChrome.css file (including the aforementioned snippets + the namespace line on top) and put it into the folder that Firefox tells me is my profile folder - still see the tabs on top though (Mac OS Mojave - FF - Quantum) - an

Not quite - especially in the commodities world - prices fluctuate and often ships can be at sea for months as the goods they carry are traded back and forth by companies based on energy contracts - in the end - something may have been prod

I hear this bit with "traditional car assembly" often. But is it really true? The powertrain isnt really the only difference - EVs are built fundamentally differently (and especially the Tesla models) from the ground up as compare

good catch. I wonder how much of that is due to the immense pressure they had in Q1 leading to crazy overtime etc to get that 2270 number. The current average being maybe a more sustainable number that can be ramped up ?

yes, but with a human driver you have someone to take responsibility / punish for, what do you do with an alogrithm to provide justice?

"they have more so its ok for them to lose some" - is a flawed logic. The reasons are "good" because they incentivize behaviour. An investor is willing to put a chunk of his money into the startup because he can expect a

interestingly, a lot of enterprise Saas software is "sold before its built", by which i dont mean its complete vaporware, but its a very common practice to build a shitty first product, sell sell sell, and only after the first 10-

This! It's almost like a safer ICO -- following the line of thougth that ICOs are ways for non accredited common people to get in on something with big potential upside - but unsafe because of the large pump and dump and scam potential

Very interesting insight! As for the sniff test - while I agree with your assessment, I wonder if the aspect of providing employees easier liquidity will make them more attractive than traditional VC deals? Essentially by "investing&q

this is why we just need to get self-driving cars sooner, this is solving the wrong problem.

not sure what's so poignant about it coming out of Italy. But sure, the practical benefits are what have been practiced for decades, this is at best a "hipsterification" of it..
