I don't know much about other Musk companies. But if you claim that SpaceX isn't the leading Space company by a huge margin , or that their execution is somehow behind any other space company, you obviously do not know much at al

Why rewriting it in js help with maintenance? This is not a snarky question, I'm genuinely curious since I personally have no problem coming back to old clojure code.

Plenty of ventures back by big names end up dead. Even when Amazon or GM themselves execute a new product, it's no where near a guaranteed success... Tesla has products and paying customers. Big difference.

Metric ton sounds redundant to me. Does the US have the notion of a "imperial ton"? (1000lbs?)

In my experience, not a lot of developers manage to organize their thoughts well enough to write them down. Maybe you manage to work with only people who can write down their thoughts coherently. But that's the rare exception and not t

Do you have examples of such proper landfill, as well as their cost vs capacity? It sounds awfully expensive for a trash stock pile.

It's incredible how you trivialize SpaceX achievements. I get it that you probably hate Elon Musk for whatever reason. But you should really calibrate your bias filter.

Statistically, I move every three year so far. I do have a lot of stuff though, last time it took half a shipping container for everything. If I extend your logics for my case, I should be driving a container truck every day. We shouldn&#x2

If there is only one thing I can complain about vim/vi, it's the esc key. The key is too far away to reach easily. It is most accessible with the little finger, which is our weakness finger. Coupled with the fact that it's li

A great thing about Macbook Pro is their high resell value. I plan to sell my 2014 MBP when I get this. I'd lose around 20-30% for one year of utilisation, good enough for me.

Never say never. I love my MBP but the Surface Note has me salivating. If it works well then I'll sell the MBP. OneNote with pen is just amazing. Coupled with the detachable high quality screen, this thing is all I can dream off at the

A counter example: How many people aside from specialists use the browser as their main "app"? How many people use webmail, search and read info, use facebook/twitter, order stuff, use online map, look at internet junk? The b

I've been living here for 7 years, worked for 3 different companies. I suppose I have a bit more anecdotes than your dozen of times. There are places are people don't seem to do anything. But it's hardly a France-only occurre

Can you give us some examples? I can't fathom how someone who cannot understand the math formula can understand the code.

> it's just pretty odd that such a comment sits at the very top of an enormous technology event. Tech people like you and me love to nitpick. It's quite "logical", measurable, and it generalizes complex issues into ni
