Sure that worked well for Tesla early as they were growing, but this is a company that is already shipping three vehicles to the consumer space. They shouldn't be trying to do "small quantity" work , and instead should be foc

Tesla can barely ship the Model 3, and now they're adding yet another consumer vehicle to the lineup? Tesla's vision is completely scattered. I have little faith in them at this time since they can't deliver the "economy

Keeping notes and notebooks is a critical skill for any top-tier engineer. I love to share this quote for that very reason: For this you keep a lab notebook. Everything gets written down, formally, so that you know at all times where

I still think it is misleading. Once you have a veracrypt container created, an attacker can't just modify a file inside of it without you noticing because it'll just be garbage data at that point. That is, unless they have your c

But that doesn't really give the attacker much, if they just scramble an encrypted container no? They can't really do much by doing that.

Thanks to articles like these, it's easy to know what professionals and companies in our field we can avoid. So many red flags from the author, I'm shocked that any of their talent stayed. What a joke.
