They have a couple people to manage test drives and they will ask if you have any questions and make sure your aware of the current interest rate or other sales incentives but they…

If receiving stock based compensation is grounds for not being independent then wouldn't most companies have an independence issue with their boards? It just seems like a crazy cla…

The Tesla knows when it's cameras and blinded by sun and act accordingly or tells the human to take over.

Half the so called dock workers don’t actually work. They sit at home and collect, “container royalties”. https://nypost.com/2024/10/04/business/how-did-50k-dockworke...

I wouldn’t say they have caught up. The self driving features alone are in a league of their own. Supercharger network is also unmatched for reach and reliability.

Making purchase decisions based on a company executive’s personal political opinions is dumb. It’s a self own to buy an inferior product for political reasons.

Does anyone have any tips for debugging EFI_STUB kernels when they fail to boot? I've run into BIOS before that I can't get EFI_STUB to work on but grub works fine and I'm not sure…

Is this similar to the Extropic approach but a different mechanism?

The notion that rich people aren’t concerned with long term outcomes seems like one of those things that isn’t true. In fact the reverse is often said the poor have, “nothing to lo…

Nicely written. I’m a bit confused about the part that seems to conflate individualism with fame or notoriety.

TPM and checking your physical security boundary hasn't been breached.

I would guess the highest leverage thing you could do is open source some of your work on Github as samples to show potential employers. If you are just getting by your top priorit…

In truly rural or remote areas relative to any available alternative it is as close to a miracle product as one could imagine. If you haven’t had to use other satellite Internet se…

It seems they did repeatedly say they could do it but fcc just ignored them.

Because the obligation was to meet the requirements in 2025 and FCC basically just subjectivity said 2 years before the deadline they don’t think they will.

The reasoning that is there is all subjective.

That's not how it works, they just need to offer a service tier that provides a service with the required minimums by a particular date, it is obviously possible unless you are bli…

Seeing as they offer service basically everywhere in the US right now and the only quibble is that the average speed is only 75 Mbps instead of 100 Mbps I'd say they are well ahead…

Today your speed tier is based on what you pay. If you pay for the priority or business tier service you absolutely get over 100Mbps consistently, a lot more. If you pay for the ba…

It doesn't. This was originally legislated as a hand out to legacy telecom companies that lobbied for it. Seeing as it exists though I would rather the money be spent with the best…

Yes, but that is a function of satellite density or so the argument seems to suggest. SpaceX is launching rockets multiple times a week and has put more satellites into orbit that …

"Musk still managed to slide in and loot a few billion dollars before they realized that Starlink can't meet their definition of "broadband."" That's false. SpaceX doesn't appear t…

Because if you use the service you know it is capable of that and more today. SpaceX is also capable of providing differentiated service speeds so looking at what an average user i…

If the terms of the deal were that they didn't need to hit the performance benchmarks until 2025 and they have demonstrated that the technology was capable of those speeds it makes…
