   I remember before Rust when Go vs. D was the topic of the day. I even bought a D book and was working through it when Go was announced, and it won me over. The difference maker for me was the standard library; working with Go was just easie

   I think it's a desperate attempt by the board to get Musk to focus on Tesla again. Tesla has a PE ratio of around 230 right now. If that comes back down to the reality of a declining-sales mid-sized car company, it's going to be a

   These metrics are so trivial to inflate they are effectively meaningless.

    This is what the system of checks-and-balances was supposed to enforce. Turns out that system is not effective if you vote the same party into power in each aspect of the government.

    I contacted GitHub support about this and they assured me they understand it's a priority and are working on it. Three years ago.

    I was skeptical as well, if only because just being a better product isn't enough to win the market. Everything we hear about Oxide sounds like an impressive green field implementation of a data center, but is that enough? Do the peopl

    Yeah the opposition to this is weird to me. This is just an example of price discovery working efficiently. That's ... a good thing.

    Doesn't Microsoft own 49% of OpenAI and receives 20% of the revenue (according to ChatGPT)? In which case, what is Microsoft so upset about?
