Well, really, who cares how quick it is? For the average Tesla buyer the speed upgrade is mostly a novelty. Just because it can accelerate doesn't make it a hypercar, sportscar, or…

NYC broker fee problem will really take a generation until the existing stakeholders literally die out. The deeply entrenched real estate industry here has no incentive to change. …

What makes you choose Go over Python for simple services and utility scripts? (I'm just learning Go but would heavily lean towards Python for those things)

> Twitter ... 82 percent of MAUs are mobile. Weibo ... 89 percent of MAUs on mobile. 7 percent. Stop the presses. Article then compares Weibo's growth with Twitters. More or less, …

Would SpaceX and rocket technology in general be where it is today without the historical pioneers and stepping stones? The title premise is ridiculous. Apollo 11 was one of the ma…
