I'm not sure if he "wants" it that way, but that will be an unintended consequence. It's hard to say anything negative about Elon or Tesla here without getting down-voted.

Spare me the PC nonsense. If the roles were reversed, women would be up in arms at being degraded. Meanwhile, most of us here (mostly men, I assume), don't particularly care. Point to a mainstream site or app that does this for men. I gr

Don't think too hard, it's just internet points. I upvote good comments, and only downvote trash. Having a different opinion shouldn't draw ire, lest we become Reddit.

Having also gone through the SRED (as well as Arts grants) process, I concur. But, this is the "grant" game in Canada.

Economics 101: If you know that there is a limit to the number of customers you can support, why not scale the price the price up as demand for your product increases to curb that demand? You get to ensure that those who value the product

The fact that we can talk casually about people going to prison for what is essentially cyber-vandalism is so ridiculous I don't know what to think. These are weird times.

I've done my share of software developer hiring. And, I've had my share of sticker shock. What always makes it a little more palatable is seeing the number of (man)hours a project will take. People understand wages, and can also easily m
