It's journalism, don't take the words for their literal meaning. He probably did go home, get some things, then head out to the airport the same day (assuming he already had a China visa). But that would sound boring in a news art

Not sure how the Porsche was the winner in every way? Going from point A->B (work commute), is your foot hard on the pedal every day? Can you even have your foot all the way down (traffic)? Tesla wins by far in terms of energy-efficiency

When I first saw the headline on techcrunch I thought they modified the car somehow to get that range. That would have been a lot more interesting than just some guy cruising at 25mph.

what do you think a 401k does behind the scenes?

Remember the 30% federal tax credit expires at the end of 2016. Only valid if you buy not lease your panels.

If you do go for solar just make sure you install it before December 31, 2016 as that's when the 30% Federal tax credit expires (note: this is if you buy, not lease the panels. Leasing does not earn you the 30% credit).

Not sure what you're talking about, I didn't see a single amazon link in the article. They even link to google books instead.

and even when you stay big, your brand name is big enough that your domain doesn't matter (e.g., teslamotors.com)

That is a very naive presumption..although if the CEO is the founder of the company, then I don't have any qualms about it.

That was a long time ago...Since 2009 actually the U.S. started going after them, it was all over the media.. not sure if you saw it.. http://www.irs.gov/uac/Offshore-Tax-Avoidance-and-IRS-Compli... and http:/&#x2

Wow you cherry-picked 3 examples (see confirmation bias) and thought stuff like that happens to every single person in America pulled over by a cop (in a nation of 300M+)?

not totally true, you are not taxed up to 100k while working abroad. see "Foreign Earned Income Exclusion".

Venmo seems to be doing fine though?

Stuff like this is why I never signed up for LinkedIn in the first place.

Try whitetruffle. Much less useless spam.

by toephu2 11y ago
whitetruffle is pretty good (I have no affiliation w/ them whatsoever, I just hate LinkedIn that much I would like to help out its competitor)

I always thought about this too, I always want to learn more. But every time when I arrived home after work I was just not motivated to read/learn other new things that took longer than 5 minutes. I imagined if I was in prison I would

> and increased diversity will produce better products and companies really? do you have proof for that? I'm all for diversity and everything, but hiring just to fill racial quotas or gender quotas is NOT the solution to building

You were probably not their target audience, or probably never google'd for home cleaning services, if you did, you would have heard of them.

exactly, so who is making the extra 10% profit? or it's nonsense that owning a gas station is a low margin business?
