Controls are more complicated if you're not using electric motors where a microcontroller can easily adjust the RPM. Someones already linked a hybrid drone with a gas powered generator but it's not cheap. In high volume it could p

I never read up much on his payouts until now, but it's extra baffling to me since I interviewed with the self driving car team back in 2015 and was told all the engineers had to start as contractors hired through an outside firm until

People of color were reportedly followed and treated suspiciously in the store, an incredibly common experience in this country. No one I know thought the incident that set this off was an example of profiling, the students were pretty obvi

Anecdotal sources, so take that as you will. I didn't go to Oberlin but have a fair amount of friends that did and they have talked about this case extensively. They all agree that Gibsons frequently racially profiled students but that

Cells manufacturing is a totally different animal, and I wonder if Tesla is willing to burn money long enough to get as good as Panasonic and the other big players. Being colocated with Panasonic at the gigafactory is a huge leg up, but its

It's annecdata but I just had a coworker move from Alameda to NC. Combination of home prices and avoiding the miserable commutes. Probably mostly the later since they could have easily afforded to buy here and Alameda doesn't shar

Are there no trademark issues from using the restaurant's official logos? These restaurants may not have filed on everything they should have and probably don't have the resources to fight it regardless, but what if they did? A la

I think this is very common, seeing it where I currently work. This theory provides a depressing take on this phenomenon. People at the top like having an insulation of middle management under them, but these people don't actually unde

Not Reminders, but Apple's calendar system torpedoed my Apple interview. Didn't properly account for the fact that my interviewer was in China and I wasn't. It got the time of day right, but he called me a day before my inter

Never worked at Apple, but from what I've heard from friends there ID is a much more powerful role than at most hardware companies. They are the ones who define what the product should be and how the user interacts with it and tend to

A Tesla is a fast luxury car, not an enthusiast's sport car. They're never meant to see a track, and 0-60 is of almost no importance there. This car is competing with the Cayman and C7 Corvette, or a Miata with a lot of money for

I was surprised it was faster, from what I remember to avoid floating point operations several large values had to be multiplied together then divided which required using a long long to avoid overflow. The division operation was quite slow
