Not in the legal sense. Per ChatGPT the government agency that can sue you for false advertising is FTC, not DMV. One of the DMV claims is that Tesla misrepresents FSD capability but they didn't sue Tesla for false advertising. Further

Only 12 employees of Tesla are striking i.e. not showing up to work. Those employees might very well be compensated from union dues. The rest can hardly be called a strike. It's called "sympathy strike" but it's more lik

You should ask ChatGPT the following: "explain "lords and peasants"" It's a bit long to reproduce here but the gist of it is that lords had rights and privileges that peasants (serfs) didn't. Those privileges w

This is Microsoft starting a copy machine to replace OpenAI with in-house tech in medium to long term. Apparently Microsoft already had plans to spend $50 billion on cloud hardware. Now they are getting software talent and insider knowledge

Their alternative is to start a new AI company. At this point in time a new AI company would be bottle-necked by lack of NVIDIA GPUs. They are sold out for the medium term future. So if Sam and Greg were to start a new AI company, even with

In latest version you can annotate (highlight, underline etc.) and create a few other annotation types and move them. More / better annotation editing, signing, redaction is something I want to do. OCR - I don't have a good handle

(I wrote SumatraPDF). In fairness, I didn't write the PDF rendering. That is indeed quite a tall order. I used to use poppler and switched to mupdf (was more active at the time, poppler seems to have picked up pace since). The core PDF

(I wrote SumatraPDF). I agree that Adobe has more features than SumatraPDF. Not necessarily the PDF spec itself - SumatraPDF displays pretty much any PDF you throw at it, just way more options and stuff. And it's not exactly slow. I&#x

(I wrote that blog post). What I was trying to say is: there's dogma about tests and code reviews. At Google you would get fired for suggesting skipping code review. Even at smaller Silicon Valley companies (smaller == less than 10 dev

> Twitter is dying Could you quantify that statement? All the stats I've seen show that Twitter usage is growing. Happy to be shown different stats, I just hope that you're not causally spreading "trust me bro" facts.

If that's the reason then those people are misinformed. Coal and gas plants are closing because they cannot compete on price with solar/wind + battery storage. The cost advantage is not true everywhere but the future is clear. Coa

Those points are neither here nor there. Tesla has pretty much the best margin in car industry, even when comparing their pure EV production to traditional ICE cars. Pretty much all other companies, including Ford, loose money on EVs. Some

In practice much bigger practical problem is that no-one handles HEAD. I sure don't. And those that do probably aren't careful about HTTP headers either. So in practice this an improvement for most. And if you don't like how

Is it vastly better, though? With this proposal if you already have an app using mux, you can change one line and you have app using new mux which you can then evolve to take advantage of additional capabilities. With new name you have to r

Adding this is so trivial. If it really, really bothers you that much: func Get(mux, uri, handler) { mux.HandleFunc("GET " + uri, handler) } Obviously skipped the types for brevity.

That still requires majority vote of board members which implies you've sold at least 50% of your company. YC gets 7%, they have zero power to make you do anything. Selling enough company that you loose 50% control is such a rare thing

Everyone, including Ars Technica, uncritically swallows this "assume liability" line. Even when you cause an accident, you don't pay. Your insurance company does. You might "pay" with increased future insurance rate
