In the Tesla case I feel that the shareholder concerns are pretty valid and provide an interesting counter pressure to Musk's "This is fine" attitude. Not saying either is right, but the friction is likely valuable. I'd

There’s an inherent dichotomy in UI in that the most “efficient” interfaces generally have the steepest learning curve. You can be really efficient in a terminal or VIM. But figuring those out take a lot of work. When we design interfaces w

This is true, a better solution (for everyone) then high rises might be better access through (or around?) the city to the east and north bays. Getting into, or especially through SF from Marin is a nightmare.

73% isn't low rise either, about a third of that 73% (30% of total) are parks and open spaces.

The same water supply supports generally the entire SF Bay area, increasing housing supply in SF would be a minor pull on any water supply required to support the entire area.

I can’t speak for anyone else but Shkreli was convicted for Securities fraud, Holmes charged wire fraud. The court cases are pretty much moot. They will likely have similar outcomes. Morally and Ethically however I’d consider Shkreli guilty

That’s an interesting read on what Shkreli did vs Holmes. At least Holmes “victims” AFAIK were mostly rich folks losing other people’s money they’re gambling with and should have known better. Shkreli fleeced normal folks just looking to ge

Normally I’m pro simple answers but I think this answer over simplifies a bit too far. When it comes to allocating state revenue just having a presence in a state doesn’t mean as much as “where services are performed” or products sold. It’s

I think the issue here, and perhaps the deciding factor between 2 & 3 is that the original story names the "alleged author" (basically of the villain of the story) and my read of the retraction is that they can't confirm

This is cool but it seems strange (to me) that this was a “Hackathon” project as opposed to just a stand-alone problem to be addressed as a normal course of doing business. It doesn’t make the solution less cool. It just seems like a strang

I’m not sure a template is the way to go with multi member. If you are going multi member you should really both get a lawyer to explain the details and review the docs. I’ve had to unwind a multi member LLC into a single member one and ga

On a large multi user system there’s a big difference between “your stuff” and “everyone’s stuff” on a single user system like a phone - not so much.

Video codec support isn't WebOS's job. Different TVs have different hardware profiles, different rendering pipelines and can support different codecs. That being said according to this https://www.displayspecifications.

What point? The reason you are an “employee” and not a “contractor” at the restaurants is because they dictate your hours and place of business. Your example about filling in is a red herring as by its nature it’s an atypical circumstance.

But I'm not sure[1] that you can combine classes like this to create a new protected class. No one is making the argument that Google discriminates based on race or sex. If this is more of a harassment suit then a discrimination clai

Will watch this with interest AFAIK discriminating against conservative white men isn’t illegal. It’s not a protected class. There must be some twist here.

Google isn't saying it that content can't exist in an app - they're saying the app doesn't have a sufficient level of moderation for dealing with issues that do occur.
