You're both likely correct. We can afford to do it right. It will cost more and we'll have to make more prudent, effective, efficient, etc... decisions about producing and allocating goods and services and would need to give up ma

Elon ain't magic. The first tranche alone requires another $1.2+ trillion in market cap. He might have been able to push prices up to +/-10+% when Tesla was smaller, but I doubt he could even move it 5% these days. Have they faked

Even without Elon, Tesla would do better than Ford. And Tesla has to hit market cap and operation goals before any stock is awarded to Elon. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/heres-what-elon-musk-needs-to... If the Market

Elon is not Tesla. I think his decisions have been helpful in the past, especially compared to half-hearted attempts at EVs by most of most other large manufacturers, but only time will tell if his current positions will pay off. At least t

The performance of V3 and V4 have improved significantly. I use them daily, more V3 than V4. It's partially about fully automated cars, but that's barely started. IMO, it's more about them as ADAS now. And it's not just

My guess is that Tesla is doing better because FSD has improved significantly over the past few months. Even with that, most of the recent increase has been them regaining the valuation they lost earlier this year.

I think it's somewhat useful long term advice, and I would add that parts prices tend to be asynchronous. Building a PC in a cost efficient manner generally requires someone to track parts prices over years, buy parts at different time

As a robotaxi, yes. That's why Teslas rollout is relatively small/slow, has safety monitors, etc... FSD, what most people use, is ADAS, even if it performs a lot of the driving tasks in many situations, and the driver needs to alw

I feel like “race to the moon, part II” is really just a race to prove someone can consistently land significant payloads outside of earth. The moon is just the closest place to test.

It's seldom invisible, but in my experience how visible it is depends on the size/modularity/performance/etc of what's being swapped and the underlying hardware. On my 8gb M1 Mac, I can have a ton of tabs open and i

You can test it for endurance athletes, but not necessarily for the population at large. If long COVID disproportionately affects people who are sedentary, then you won't see that in endurance athlete performance.

My experience is limited, but no one I've engaged with at Apple has ever admitted fault for anything. I think it's a liability/culture thing.

Can you share more detail? Every pain point I've seen can be handled by a more suitable/performant/flexible DB and/or software that makes working with SQL less painful.

Part of the problem is that a BA/BSA who writes Python, SQL, etc... as part of their day to day work will get lumped with those who don't and their salary doesn't reflect their skills and work product. Obviously the same can

I had a similar issue downloading a large file from Google drive (125gb?) over the web. I had to install the drive client on a Windows laptop and download it through that.

I'd reach out to recruiters/agencies. It'll also be a pain, but I've had more luck doing that than cold applying the last time I was looking. You can also try pivoting to something adjacent like data engineering and I&#x

That's only in China, presumably at a steep discount because of the EV price war between manufacturers. In Mexico it's called the Dolphin and costs $20k+. I'm sure some of that is tariffs, but I don't think it's an

I have a Model 3, and phantom drain is virtually non-existent. Like anything used, or new, what you'll get is random. In general, Tesla seems to have their batteries sorted out compared to other manufacturers, but you can be unlucky. T

About five years ago, maybe more, Google started sending me captchas if I ran too many repetitive searches. I could be wrong, but it feel like most large platforms have fairly sophisticated anti-bot/scraping stuff in place.
