The idea of someone using a computer with no monitor seems to bizarre.

I know blind people wouldn't need one, but somehow the lack of it brings up the wow factor.

They do have third party stuff

This article says nothing to that regard.

>The survey, now in its fifth year, polled more than 5,000 consumers who make at least two online purchases in a three-month period. According to results, shoppers now make 51% of their purchases online, compared to 48% in 2015 and 47% in 2014.

1. They're only polling people who make online purchases.

2. Not sure how the 51% figure is computed.

No barely any of it is from Paypal.

Paypal was sold in 2002 for like 1.5 billion to Ebay, and Musk had like 10% of the shares.

He does however own something like 25% of Tesla. Thats about 12.5 billion.

Thats the historical average.

Who actually thinks those statements reflect Zuckerberg's real views?

Its just PR talk.

Can someone explain what "selling web browsing and app usage data" really means?

I don't imagine they literally package sensitive information and distribute it to anyone who pays. In which case, "they sell your data" is completely misleading.

> In this case, manufacturers realized that it's more economical to manufacture in China than in the US so that's what they've been doing. Simple economics.

This is absolutely a good thing.

Why would you encourage inefficient trade?

Are Americans somehow more deserving of jobs than Chinese ones?

You rather bolster inefficient manufacturing processes and have Chinese workers/whole populace fucked so some more Americans can have better living standards?

>Except it's really not. Reality is an equal number of female and male voices.

Not in things you'd make a move around.

"EVs will make up 15 percent to 30 percent of new vehicles by 2030, after which fuel “demand will flatten out,” Couse said. “Maybe even decline.”"

Not exactly amazing.

> It may soon be able to make you money ride sharing while you're not using it.

Soon? You mean, possibly, in the next 10 years soon.

They don't agree because Tesla drivers are those who weren't concerned by that in the first place.

I think pretty much everything is male dominated no?

Its not just corporate world. Sports, politics, business, war,etc.

>Secondly, movies are fictional worlds so they can represent whatever their creators choose them to represent. They could be representing more equally. They're not.

I don't think this is fair. Some movies are completely fictional, but most are set on reality in some way. And I bet that in those completely fictional films, the ratio is much closer.

>The newspaper reported that Facebook also has information on users who are discussing “looking good and body confidence” and “working out & losing weight”

What's wrong with that exactly?

Is that any different than an option to advertise to people who are talking about buying cars?

Advertisements run the entire modern industry.

Their stock has grown like 7 fold in a year. This is just aligning expectations.

Holy hell.

Backing a few good ideas doesn't mean he will never back a bad one.

So were not allowed to give our concerns because ultimately they may not be correct?

Also, there's a ton of companies with a ton of knowledge who have done things which failed spectacularly or have refused to do things that would work. Tesla's whole existence is sentiment to that.

Is Musk immune to making such mistakes? The consensus on his Hyperloop idea still seems to be that is infeasible.

There's people who will think any issue is stupid, but by no mean did the vast majority of people think those ideas were stupid. I particularly don't recall anyone saying reusable rockets were a bad idea.

And X.Com didn't become Paypal. Paypal became Paypal. Paypal was already developed before the merger and it was not Musk's idea.

"I think there is nothing more boring than reading a bunch of people who never propose anything point out flaws."

This just isn't a very rational statement.

Saying we shouldn't be wasting a ton of resources on private cars is a "drastic reduction in the quality of our lives"?

Quite frankly, I would much prefer to not have the costs and issues of owning a private vehicle.

Why

7% margin on online retail seems pretty high

Very nice design

Tesla is not going to revolutionize energy through selling electric cars and solar panels.

I find the idea pretty laughable.

They're 50/50 bets.

"Sophisticated investors" aren't doing any better.

Didn't stop Snap

Didn't Beepi try this?
