Price is also a disqualifier, imo. A battery replacement on a Lightning is $30k and the battery is warrantied for 8 years or 100K miles. How long the batteries last after the warranty expires I think will have a big impact on an already mor

Typically stories I hear where technical people maintained equity it was through a lot of maneuvering. It wasn't given to them by the merits of their accomplishments.

I like Michael's take that the real value in a founder is their ability to recruit the right team. What I don't think was said explicitly here is that typically technical people are progressively marginalized as the business grows

Correct, that is a working dog point. A caveat to that is that the word "job" is different when used with dogs. It means repeated activity that they have access to. Some examples: https://www.labradortraininghq.com&#x2F

It does require going on dangerous trails in inclement weather and it's a full time job. That was more my point. Seems like things that should be paid.

imo, the best way to learn these is to implement them on a small scale yourself. When I wanted to learn about JOSE, I implemented a JOSE library and read the RFCs alongside my implementation. It taught me a lot.

This reminds me of the real preemption to "West World". They had discovered cognitive machines and had them for some time, but printing "bodies" was the true break through that connected everything together. Pun intended

This is so trash. I grew up in Texas and a neighborhood not far from mine had fracking occurring underneath it. So many people got strange cancers from this stuff, and it took decades to address it.

I was raised in the American South and grew up knowing it to be normal. That has changed as a norm though, and now when parents get old they move in with/near to whoever can take care of them best.
