I'd look at using a Storinator cluster with a scalable network filesystem like Gluster, Lustre, Ceph or something along those lines. A 4U Storinator with 60 18TB drives has 1PB of raw capacity and cost $43,0000. You'd been looki

Lucid isn’t in the same class as stripe or Starlink. It hasn’t sold a single car let alone turned a profit. That is solid SPAC territory

Reputable companies don’t need SPACs. I’d guess there is close to zero chance of any SPAC landing a high quality company like stripe, Starlink etc...

This seems to be conflating buy & hold with passive investing. What is it called when you don't invest in index funds you pick stocks and then buy and hold them for the long term? Seems to me there is passive and active investing

No doubt but they derive much of their prestige from their performance reputation which is why you see them marketing the Taycan’s 0-60 repeatability. As things progress the marketing department will increasingly struggle to come up with r

At least in the next decade people are going to care about range, charge speed (measured in miles per hour, in part a measure of efficiency) and software quality. So called super car brands will pivot to market on subjective qualities like

I’d guess it is a poor translation of Arabic. ربان Can be translated to “captain” but it means the person piloting the ship which is part of the duties of the first mate when the captain isn’t at the helm. Saying that she piloted the shi

This story itself seems to be perpetuating a small false hood by captioning the leading photo as, “Egypt’s first female ship’s captain”. If you read the article it then says she was the first female to be accepted to Egypt’s merchant navy s

Calling this tweet "anti-union" seems like spin. It is pointing out facts that one might want to consider before deciding to unionize. The fact that employees lose stock options when they unionize isn't so much a threat as

This reads like someone who has never used A Tesla’s autopilot or seen the FSD Beta videos from the public Beta test. It can essentially do all the things you are up on your soapbox about already and is improving rapidly.
