We're not at saturation exactly, sales are growing but growth has slowed and competition is much stronger. It's entirely possible Tesla has peaked and won't recover but that's speculation. I'm still confident EVs wi

The story has been that Tesla is losing market share even as EV sales rise. Early adopters were happy to buy in to a truly unique experience with a funky-looking vehicle and a complete rethinking of interiors and controls. Meanwhile, Kia, H

Yeah the AI is probably the most ethical part of this operation. The human leadership decided that no amount of collateral damage was too much.

That's not exactly a prediction. It was was standard operating procedure for Warsaw Pact nations. They used human intel which was possibly even worse because it could manipulated out of malice.

I don't work in enterprise sales or nothing, but it seems to me that businesses whose only price tag is "call us" are the ones with the most revenue. Transparent pricing is great for SMBs, but the big bucks are in making your

I don't see how Cloudflare has a stranglehold. They've captured the bottom of the market by having low, low introductory prices and turnkey security. They have tons of huge and small competitors though. They have far less revenue

Literally named after the time Elon Musk paid for a hit piece then disowned the guy who wrote it for him. I'd treat with equal skepticism.

Good parenting. Just tell them that a lot of the internet is nonsense, a lot of people lie or make up stories for laughs or drama. Show them some good quality channels that are broadly appealing (my kids like hobby channels, cooking stuff,

If email is business critical, you do it. I work for a pretty small company and we do stuff like this. We have a sender tool that gives us a static sender IP, reports deliverability, click rates and at least estimates open rates. We also ha

Mind boggling. How do you even decide what to do with privileges on a billion computers?

CISA had a report on this pretty quickly. I think they refer cases to Secret Service for enforcement. But really, we seemingly have no idea who or where the perpetrator is located. This could easily be a state actor. It could be a lone wolf

Does anybody know anything about Jia Tan? Is it likely just a made up persona? Or is this a well-known person.

It's the eternal September problem. Reddit was a great source of honest reviews until everyone figured it out and started to take advantage. Services trying to capitalize on it may be well-intentioned but it's only going to accele

Emissions standards per vehicle. Doesn't regulate how many miles get driven or how close to people.

So is car exhaust. Probably an order of magnitude worse than phones.

I never understood it that way. It was just that Eichmann and many other prominent monsters of the Nazi era were polite, cordial and unassuming people when you got them alone. That you could never tell what hideous souls they had because th

In the many, many years they have spent building a pile of gibberish tech, traditional finance has begun transitioning to T-0 settlement on centralized platforms. FedNow is going to replace ACH and wires and allow 24/7 real-time transa

Banality of evil. I'm sure SBF seems like a decent person who just wants to run a cool business and play with technology. He never thought he was a crook.

I really, really don't think so. Not in absolute terms. A lot of people got used to life on easy street with remote work and sky-high salaries. I think that has made a lot of software people complacent and picky. If you want a job, any

The current situation is absolutely nowhere near a recession. That being said, recessions are measured in very aggregate terms. In aggregate, the US and world economists are in a boom by any broad measures. But during a boom, some sectors o

Really I kinda don't care. The problems of fossil fuel emissions are urgent and will also burden the working class more than wealthy. In this instance, we're talking about the 10 square miles of the US that is most densely packed

They can tax as much as they want. The taxes on car ownership and fuel consumption are way way too low across the country to account for the costs they incur.

Can I jump in and ask what you do? My oldest kid has those courses lined up for her next few years because she really enjoys math. I studied some of them in college and then ended up spending 20 years making web sites.

"sufficiently long timescale" is long enough to figure out a solution :) But seriously the question was "ideal solution". Not everyone can do it but just right-sizing compute and removing or offloading bottlenecks is ent

I tend to avoid any PaaS service like Vercel or Heroku unless you're guaranteed to never need scale or complexity. If you can dockerize your main application code, it's easy enough to deploy on ECS or Azure app service. Lean heavi

I love ECS. But I'd also tip my cap to Azure App Service. They're both full flexible models that utilize the core services of public cloud but limit your exposure to the bare necessities. CDN->Load Balancer->autoscale docker
