You must have moved before you started speaking. But nice to see people in the thread recognizing it's not just Texas Y'all is plural. All y'all is short for all of y'all.

The only place I see people saying y'all can be singular is nonsoutherners on the internet erroneously trying to explain why people say all y'all. I've never seen that in Hollywood even you got any examples?

This gets so exaggerated online especially if you rely on reddit to figure out what to get they always recommend the one that is 10x as expensive and they insist cheaper things won't last or work but it almost never is my experience wi

Before you criticize, know that Elon was endowed with more knowledge in every field than the experts in each field. He is able to share definitive takes about any subject ~4 times an hour while being father of 11, CEO of a handful, and #1

If you're older I think some of this is obvious. Biggest example for me is grapefruit, they used to be barely sweet, when I was a kid they were mostly bitter and we used to add sugar to them, now they're always extremely sweet.

The problem for openai is Google's cost are always going to be way lower than theirs if they're doing similar things. Google's secret sauce for so many of their products is cheaper compute. Once the models are close, decades

He didn't say fully random (unsupervised). I understood that as soon as I saw the first winner was at the town hall, but I have been following Elon for years.

They said driverless cars by 2016, battery swapping, Cybertruck being usable by a boat and next gen Roadster flying were delusional too. Never underestimate Elon!

Or Teslas "battery swap" event which actually helped them earn them a huge amount of subsidies from the government. Watching after understanding Elons m.o. it is clearly fake or how else would they have a planned demo on stage wit

I've always suspected he never actually read them, everything about the Culture seems to fly in the face of his hard working, sleep on the factory floor, great man proganist values, though I'm sure he'd admire the tech and it

By now it has to be clear he is a genius at playing 4D hungry hungry hippos. If there is some investor money or government subsidy to be had he will say and do anything to get it. If it's not there he loses interest

How about the main feature on tesla.com/autopilot, a (faked) video still there from many years ago that starts with the text that the driver is there only for legal reasons?

This is a great idea! Solves all the problems with GCP and AWS and uses existing idle compute so it's great for the environment. Can see this genius idea being a trillion dollar segment for Tesla not sure why it only went up 15% after
