I find Tesla’s interface to be inferior as soon as you want to use an app they haven’t built. Like my podcasts app. Or receiving / replying to a WhatsApp message. Even the built-in text message support can’t handle…
Have any CEOs been held criminally liable for bribing government officials lately?
The positive viewpoint is basically like the Industrial Revolution or the post-WWII consumer/convenience boom. If productivity can increase significantly per worker, the result will be major overall economic growth. It…
Sure, so the economic anxiety from people with careers in the horse and cart industry was fully justified.
> Rich people are stealing all the jobs. The AI promoters are themselves saying these things because it is the positive case for their business, that other businesses can pay them for AI services that are cheaper and…
The current market cap of SPCX and TSLA combined (~$3.8T) is about 3 times the total value of all BTC (~$1.3T).
You can't shift productivity by 10X and expect the rest of the supply/demand equilibrium to stay the same, with you working 10% of the time and sipping drinks on the beach while retaining the same job opportunities and…
And some foods are a lot more water efficient than others to produce.
> it's "when," not "if." That has always been the question since Elon started making self-driving claims back in 2016. If you believed him any time up until now you'd have been wrong and potentially own a car that will…
Tesla's own expectation six years ago was that they would be selling 20 million cars annually by 2030: https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/tesla-... Tesla's recent annual car sales: 2023: 1.81M 2024:…
We have already reached the point where solar and wind produce new MW of power cheaper than any other power source you can build. Of course that energy generation comes with the caveat of being variable with sun and…
A big question about this push for AI/LLM features in products, and I think very related to public sentiment on AI, is that if these features were so desirable and useful why do they need to be so forcefully promoted?…
ARM Windows laptops are a pretty different scenario now than when the Surface came out. They have pretty seamless x86/64 emulation built in similar to when Apple started their Mac transition to ARM. In contrast the OG…
They've discovered that it's more efficient if the money flows directly from the private enterprise to the politicians without going through tax revenue.
There will be no single moment when that happens. It will be a stack of years and years of innovations and improvements each of which take time to roll out into mass production, start expensive, and get cheaper.
Well except that there were incidents of cars getting stuck in floods with passengers before they paused the service. A closer analogy would be ""Chicago O'Hare pauses flight departures due to a winter storm after 3…
Unless you're betting that a thing he has said will happen will actually happen when he said it would. Or even 10 years later.
We don't like LLMs throwing giant walls of code in PRs at repos and expecting devs to read and respond to all of them. That's kind of similar to written content being posted and linked. There's an expectation that you…
They're all over the place in Mexico City. It'll be interesting as these EVs start to show up along the northern and southern borders traveling within the US.
Well currently commenting on PRs isn't working. I'd say we notice this kind of issue once every few weeks or so. It's not the end of the world but also not great for a service that we pay for and which used to be more…
As far as I know there's nothing preventing third parties from building and selling hardware with SteamOS or a similar software stack. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SteamOS They aren't going to let you advertise them as…
In this case, the issues under dispute are the cases where the trademark was used outside of the GPL-covered code. Specifically the port author using the Notepad++ name and logo on their website, in addition to the…
You're having a hard time seeing the side where one side has a trademark on the project name and logo, and the other side is using those without permission?
'Kapybara Space Program' has actually already been done as an April Fool's post by the previous studio that worked on Kerbal Space Program 2: https://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/topic/216143-kapybara-s...
