There isn't a fraction of a fragment of evidence that Russia influenced the election.
Communism isn't real Communism
I wouldn't be surprised if this guy digital_trench was being paid to shill for Tesla.
Bullet points are possibly the best textual communication tool. It forces you to be brief and structured.
Their content production is amortized over 5 years. In reality, they're in the red.
Netflix is in the red, I believe.
>Elon has moved his desk to the giga factory as that is where the largest bottleneck is.
Elon is the bottleneck
Interesting to see how this post is being sent back to the second page even though it has 43 points in 4 hours. In front are posts with 12 points in 5 hours.
If you're not good at it, doing things in-house can be multiples more expensive than buying from the market.
So you think Tesla is going bankrupt
Using proxies for competence is a slippery slope towards misdirection and irrelevance - and as a result, incorrect hiring decisions.
In another thread today, someone mentioned they reject every CV that has two typos or more. It's a proxy, and it is irrelevant for the job.
Once you start going down the path of proxies, you add more and more far removed ones. To keep hiring performance high, resist adding the first proxy. Actually ask questions relevant to past work experience that maps to the actual job. Maybe do work samples.
To circle back to the two questions in the blog post, no interviewer can answer them because they use proxies too far removed.
Venture capital exists in every industry.

Sounds like another instance of centralization that must be disrupted by the blockchain
The answer is that this is one of few jobs that is simple enough that it can be automated.
Everyone is bad at changing themselves. A company is a system where the individual parts are people. Systems are built with a purpose. Changing the system means changing the purpose, often requiring exchanging old parts for new and completely revamping the system.
Creating vision for this re-design requires distance which most CEOs don't have as they are too embroiled with the day to day maintenance of the existing system, by definition.

People in technology use the machine metaphor for the human mind literally. See neural networks and even basic terms like Artificial Intelligence (there are no and have never been any intelligent machine or program). This certainly is not a strawman.
So what? That's how the world works. You don't get a free pass because you can code.
Convenience. Same as bottled water.
The business plan is what you put together after you have a validated product. It is necessary in all businesses.
There are two ways of doing production: large batches, like you describe, and TPS. It is counterintuitive but TPS makes small batch production more efficient and more cost effective than large batches because it looks at the production system as a whole. You may want to read up on it - Check out The Machine That Changed the World.
It's getting less and less clear.
It's actually the reverse.
Work in process is extremely expensive and large batches are more expensive than just in time production. This is the core of TPS and its not disputed.
