Her appointment should also be discussed, given how much of Tesla's bad press has been HR related over the past year. She may prove to be the more important addition.

Given Tesla's current issues with how they have been reported to treat their workforce, while Larry might be useful in terms of finance and contacts, I'm more interested in discove…

Given the title includes her, I'd like to know what the thought was behind removing her name. I'd be very surprised if it was; 'Larry is bad, so lets not harm people by association…

Not only can you not always distinguish them from each other, but they are very far from being mutually exclusive. Which is somewhere else that Hanlon's razor falls down. It sets t…

I have said this before, but Hanlon's razor is good for politeness, but not very good for assessing what people are actually up to, as people regularly disguise maliciousness as in…

If it was objectively not true, then you could have infinite compression and any program could be reduced to a single bit.

Isn't pseudo though as he is also a lawyer. He may be far too used to writing like that.

One thought, if this is combined with a freezer and there is a pumped heat exchanger between that and the fridge, you can effectively use the freezer as the battery.

On the other hand, if you know something is bad for false positives then unless it is so bad as to be unusable, you would expect that, on average, getting a few results is dubious,…

Thanks for the advice. I think also some of it might just be that I have mainly had jobs for smaller companies which have a relatively small percentage of management positions avai…

Thanks for this. I guess there is a fine line to tread between being aggressive and assertive. I often see them used interchangeably though.

Not yet you aren't.

Fusion power has not yet reached ignition, without that it is not just uneconomic, it is not working period. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fusion_energy_gain_factor

I don't know where you get that idea. The current problem with fusion is not that it isn't economic, it is that it is not yet at the stage where it produces excess power that can b…
