I find it quite amusing that Bezos does this and what's everyone's first reaction? Let's find out what Elon has to say!

Nothing in this post is particularly interesting, from an engineering perspective. Anyone involved with web hosting should be able to deploy sites like this to this standard, if not better.

Yes, because inexperienced drivers tend to buy $130k vehicles.

He seemed to get a bit technical when talking about filters. I wish he had been more clear and described exactly what the use of filters were to normal people. In that when you're in the vehicle, you'll be breathing in less toxins emitted by other vehicles etc.

Tesla are building a great brand and part of that comes from the presence of a visionary like him. I think a lot of people respect the fact he doesn't allow a PR person to BS the audience. But hey, they've come this far doing it this way so I don't see a need to change now.

Re:Ask HN: Do you feel guilty when you quit a job?
on Saturday September 19, 2015 @11:43AM (#10244545)
Man, you need to grow some balls. You should have negotiated the contract and emphasised that it isn't enough to live on and that you were promised more. If you were too shy to do that, then you'll have to live with the fact that you got yourself in a non-sustainable position.
And..... according to you, the company lied to you about a promotion and then didn't deliver. So YOU feel guilty about wanting to leave? Oh come now.

Thank you for the insight. I have noticed they have a habit of making big announcements very early and even if they end up being late a lot of the time, they continue this practice. So it must be worth it.

So you don't personally like CC based on your experience of it 2 years ago, so what? You don't have to use it. It just so happens that a lot of people really like their service.
If it outputs bad candidates, as you claim, then you should have no problem beating them in job interviews.

tl;dr "omg I'm scared of new people learning how to program because it threatens my job. I learned the hard way looking through old textbooks and new entrants shouldn't get to use a nice new service to learn because I didn't have that available to me when I started!"

The comparison is between cars, not price. Prices will come down eventually. When the iphone came out, did you cry about how it will always be a niche product because the nokia 3310 is so much cheaper?

If you're just commuting; charge it at your workplace? park it anywhere you can access a power outlet? If absolutely nothing is available, spend an hour of your time on the weekend using a supercharger.
