    Maybe we should agree that all jobs can't be compared apples to apples. I have 3 good friends that fly for major airlines. I'm pretty familiar with the jobs. -Those tests are no jo…

    I always look for how this is measured and evaluated when quotes like this are thrown out ... I never am successful.

    The Twitter example is the exact nearsighted reason a lot of comments like the one we're all talking about come up. A lot of smart people spent years trying to make a resilient sys…

    Looking at all the packages available, I'm sure that's why. You make it a much simpler thing to just develop that runtime for a known environment that you control vs a browser/loca…

    Except he isn't hesitant about the AI that is beneficial to him and his company. It doesn't make him wrong but it does make him a bit hypocritical.

    You can just reference your separate python file, you don't actually have to put it all in one html file.

    There are a huge number of people who would disagree with Python being a "crap" language, and the irony is that the only language supported in the browser is js. You're missing a b…

    Exactly. They still are one of THE companies to work for, and throw so much money at people its hard to say no

    I feel like you just contradicted yourself. If a company didn't think innovation lead to more profits, then they wouldn't try to.

    How exactly could you evaluate FizzBuzz over the phone? Its designed as a weed out question early on, if they can't do that (and yes some have failed) then it makes a decision pret…

    I think you have that flipped. 20% of code covers 80%. As you try to get to 100% coverage of all possible scenarios the complexity gets in some cases exponentially harder as all th…

    Ha. Pretty weak attach. The dude literally sleeps at work at times, and his companies have produced things that have never been done before. Stuff that you can't really do as a wee…

    What coastal cities are 2100 miles away? Maybe for few that are retired, but 210 isn't the best for trips that far, and that's assuming the chargers are exactly at where you need t…

    Seems there are a huge number of people who disagree. There literally being nothing else that does what it does I think is a big leg up.

    Have they? I dont remember ever seeing that. Just that there will only be one screen, and everyone assumed all info would be there.

    I feel that's a cop-out. A fully self-driving world is easily 5 years away, and even then why would I not want relevant info in front of me?

    I disagree. While there may be some that are holding off, they will know the specs in the next couple of months. At that time those people will be queued up and either buy the S,X …

    This falls apart pretty quickly when you think about the fact that the government would be forcing someone to sell something they own

    I mean prices are going to be a little inflated over 15 years. Also you can get an incredible vehicle for $15 grand that is a few years old. Those safety requirements are something…

    I think "360,000 hours" makes it a little more impactful. Was thinking 20 before I clicked the article
