I believe that. We're well-calibrated to handle some amount, and some people really need that beer or two to bring them down to earth. Definitely contributes to overall happiness.

It's pretty much a question of if the psychological benefit counters the physical harm, then. Works for me, bottoms up!

I paid for a month out of curiosity, and it was actually great. Really enjoyed it on long trips. Obviously I used it as intended. Autopilot works stupid good the rest of the time, though. Great feature.

Not sure if you've ever used a Tesla interface, but they're so much better than the garbage we've gotten used to in cars. I was also the first comment, so...

I can't believe it's shocking that legacy auto can't write software.

This is obviously about technical contexts, but I could have been clearer about that. I would personally call most WEB3/Blockchain enthusiasts "Non-technical", because they have no idea what they're promoting.

Good article, but fundamentally flawed. "Technical" versus "non-technical" is simply a soft assessment of intelligence, and we treat people accordingly. If I say the PM is non-technical, I'm saying she can't gr

It doesn't materially matter to the lawsuit.

There was nothing wrong with the comp package itself, but forcing a re-vote with disclosure of any false information would be the most appropriate strategy. It's still unfair, because it was a gamble then and a sure thing now, but I su

Playing Captain Nemo is honestly a pretty decent strategy. I think I'd personally go for the volcano base, but the Nautilus method is pretty epic too. Either that or fund any FTL research I could get my hands on. I want to break that

But at the same time, the hardware is not where it needs to be for ubiquity. We need ~60PPD, great FOV, and lighter hardware to really break the barrier. Vision Pro is at the limits, but still not quite there, and we all know the 90/

Yeah, SolarCity was a... stinky acquisition that was mentioned in this case. Some of the relevant false statements related to it. Full disclosure, I agreed with Elon's current opinions before he had them, and I'm an avid legal ner

Well, the idea of giving value to society has been evaporating of late, but it should still be taught as the ideal.

It's not a conspiracy theory if it's on their website...

While it's sad now, I'm looking forward to long-term thinking being emphasized in business school again.

It's a perfectly decent representation, if you're used to reading judgements (rulings are in motion practice, the outcome is a judgement) and understand how to read between the lines.

The shareholders purchased Tesla stock at $18, and voted on Elon getting a ton of money if he made them a ton of money . That's the representation that matters here, and it turned out extremely accurate.

by rpmisms 3y ago
Exactly. This would have been a ~$10m judgement for the solarcity hijinks in a sane court.

by rpmisms 3y ago
But it doesn't materially matter if SolarCity was a bad investment, or board members went on vacations together. The shareholders got their money's worth, and then some. The damages should be punitive for any misrepresentations, w

> Why wouldn't the business friendly court side with shareholders? Because the majority of the shareholders thought this was a very fair pay package when it was passed (73% voted yes, IIRC). Produce massive value, you get massive re

The decision hinges on factors that aren't usually a big deal or thought much about. 1. The judge's opinion that the compensation package is "unfair", and 2. Elon's brother being on the board, which some shareholder

Yes, and this is a strange decision for the Chancery court to make, since they enjoy being business-friendly and having a reputation for such. I'm not going to say the judge is biased, but... Elon will likely take his own advice, and

I want better walkability and bicycle paths. I ride a motorcycle, I also have issues with cars acting awfully. It's still wrong to damage others' property, even if your feelings are hurt. Motorists are the majority of the country,

Beat Saber is an insanely good game, too. Easy to learn, but the high-level play is just nuts. There's even maps that teach you dances.

Wishing prison is morally correct. If you read what I was saying as "we should hang people for deflating tires", there may be another issue here. I think my reaction highlights the clear issue in their thinking. I will never suppo

And I hope they all go to prison. Used to be you'd be hanged for stealing a horse. Taking a person's means of transport is evil. I am, indeed, a vindictive and violent driver, apparently.
