nVidia still has the monopoly on training. Everyone else is just making chips for inference.

Elon was literally a founder of OpenAI. Private space, EV, AI. Three major tech industries with him at the forefront from the beginning. Calling him a hype chaser is simply wrong.

I am speaking about willingness to take big risks not ability. You are arguing with me while talking about completely different things.

> The comparison between Musk and Jobs is kind of absurd. No it is not. You're just blinded by Musk derangement syndrome and grasping at any straws that might dismiss his accomplishments.

And they did most of it decades ago when the public supported grand endeavours. Now risk aversion is very high and budgets are very limited.

Doubtful that they could move faster with him taking a more active role. Starship could have launched months before, but they have been waiting for FAA approval. It is not Elon's lack of attention holding them back.

Because it takes deep pockets and willingness to take big risks. Something gov organizations can not do.

The gov is not a monolithic entity. If an organization has power over an important private entity, it comes down to a couple of people and their ego's and I am damn sure their ego loved the idea of making the all important SpaceX and M

> Rust: You spend 45% of development time fighting with borrow checker/Rust syntax. Only a beginner. I spend practically no time fighting the borrow checker because I figured out how to structure my code to not have issues.

You don't need to master all aspects of a language to write code for it. The point is beginners who do not master all of it are not shooting themselves in the foot anywhere near as much as C++ beginners.

The higher cost in developer time is a myth. Because the type checking seriously helps you out when you are changing existing code and it results in much fewer bugs out of the gate. Sure the language in its totality is more complex. At leas

Go's type system is much less expressive and it has null pointers. An entire giant class of bugs.

I went from Erlang to Rust and frankly I would not say Erlang is more productive, despite being a very high level language. When building a non-trivial system one should think about total cost of ownership. A Rust program is by default goin

Because it covers trips long enough to reasonably do in a day. And if on average you are charging more than using, the battery will be at near full capacity most of the time. It eliminates range anxiety.
