I'm not saying pedantry is bad per se, but I think it can be taken too far, which is happening here.

No, this is hand-writing HTML into SQL database rows for conditional rendering. I think it stems from a culture of remarkable IP protectiveness. Take your guesses at which company I am referencing.

He called them on some ridiculous claim that $10 billion could end world hunger. He said that if they could show him how, he'd donate the money. Spoiler alert, they could not show him how.

You're arguing from priors. I respect Berger's work, but it doesn't exempt him from acting like a pillock, clearly.

Since you're on HN, I'll assume you're pretty cool, but most people take what politicians like as an inverse signal. If they don't like it, it's probably good.

The screen was never an issue in the 2012-2014 Model S, it was just the adhesive. The flash memory issue did affect my old car, very annoying. What you said makes sense in terms of relative effect. I think most--if not all--of the companies

I am also a keyboard snob, and have far more expensive keyboards. Mass manufacturing drastically lowers costs, and a price point goal is super useful for group buys, which I have run before. It is useful data. I'm also talking about PC
