Come on man, he mentioned the bipolar himself in multiple recorded interviews. It's a matter of public record.

Mania doesn't make you abuse your workforces at multiple companies over a period of decades, lie about holding your son that died from SIDS when you actually weren't home, or dump half a dozen spouses when you get bored with them. That's not having empathy. This man does not have empathy.

>Frankly I'm still confused how his lawyers wrote the deal to buy Twitter the way he wanted to.

The client is an arsehole and refuses to listen to counsel.

Suing someone for delinquency usually requires issuing notice, so we're running down the clock right now. Give it a few weeks. As of the beginning of Q4 Twitter still had a billion in cash that is rapidly shrinking.

Musk personally may not have a lot of wealth given that his lifestyle has been funded with loans secured against his Tesla stock, now almost worthless. There's also a lawsuit against his stock based compensation set to begin on 17th Jan, so that will be fun too.

It's not grand strategy. Musk was forced to buy an unprofitable ad supported business for ten times it's fair value, during an advertising recession, all because of him choosing to not treat his severe bipolar disorder and having a manic episode. Poor guy.

Now that he's potentially not manic at the moment (possibly, I'm not his doctor) he realizes that he's not going to put an additional cent into it because the business can't be saved.

His reputation has been completely destroyed. The SEC will ban him from ever serving as an officer or on the board of ANY public company before this is over. But over the last four years he's also pulled back the veil on his other much less sympathetic mental health diagnosis, antisocial personality disorder.

You can't just plug in TSMCs transistor density numbers, those are for logic only.

SRAM did not shrink much on N5, and it won't shrink at all between N5P and N3. Apples cores are almost entirely constructed out of SRAM.

>But, trying to order one of these things is an entirely different matter. Getting pricing, let alone delivery dates, is just impossible

Could be a long wait.

Nuvia promised silicon in mid 2022. It's now January 2023 and no updates from Qualcomm on when they're going to start sampling to OEMs.

Most of Amazon's long term debt is in prebuilding data center real estate. So long as Azure and GCP keep kicking own goals they should be fine.

I have an iphone XS. I'll be upgrading for USB-C, Globalstar messaging, and 8GB of ram. All three are required.

I will not play the nickel and diming game on DRAM, 6GB on a flagship phone ain't enough for a five year phone.

Facebook are being forced by the EU to have their coalition of PII stealing vampire parasites (Apps) implement a checkbox of some kind when violating a users right to privacy.

Speaking generally of your kind: You suck. Your business model sucks. You think you have a moral right to siphon data continuously without informed consent. Implement the checkbox and shut the hell up.

>The function won’t be “postToNsa()”

How about "_NSAKEY"?

In practice Microsoft's thousands of unintentional backdoors would be indistinguishable from a small number of intentionally placed ones. Spy agencies don't even have to bother.

SHEIN has a small run just in time manufacturing model. They carry less than two days of inventory and consolidate and airmail from warehouses next to their Chinese factories.

H&M and Zara cannot compete. They order three months ahead, put the majority of their stock on slow sea freight, and throw out half of their stock at the end of season.

When you put every keyword in quotes it still incorrectly stems them, and it still ignores some keywords completely.

I also wonder why almost no web forums I use are coming up in results at all, despite their robots.txt allowing indexing. Feels like Google is becoming a bit like East Germany...

As a loyal Google user from 1999-2021 that has now fully decoupled from all of it's services, it's a deeply tragic loss.

If Google is so large and so arrogant that they can't even take feedback from internal employees then it's probably game over for them. They certainly aren't listening to developers and power users on forums.

Depends on how much of the wing has buckled.

If it's just a wingtip Boeing sends a AOG (Airplane On Ground) team to repair it onsite. They remove the wing skin replace any ribs, spars, wiring, lighting, etc, that are damaged, before riveting a new skin over it.

Due to Singtel gutting Optus's onshore support service Optus has been losing market share for years and has had to rely on heavy discounting. In 2021 they posted a $208m net loss.

This is probably the end for Singtel in retail telecommunications in Australia, and I don't know who would buy their network now that TPG and Vodafone have merged. They may just convert it to a much smaller wholesale only operation.

Probably someone at ASD called the kid responsible at home and had a polite and friendly chat. Might have told him to make his bed, clean up his room and throw out his cumsock while they were at it.

ASD and ASIO have despised Singtel since they bought out C&W in the late 90's and want them out of the country. This whole media fiasco is a blessing for everyone. Might be able to finally cancel their carrier licence.
