Re:Ask HN: How to Negotiate for Job Offer? on Monday May 20, 2019 @12:47PM (#19962285)
lol, dont be so naive.

As someone who has hired many engineers, management absolutely sees coders as a commodity.

Where is this?
Tesla already has RADAR. Why would they need LIDAR?

The issue isn't with the sensors, but rather the system reacting to sensor data.

lol, should we ban cruise control too bud?
hmm...

Carrying a smartphone vs carrying a smartphone and a key chain.

I wonder which is preferable..

Uhm yeah, this is illegal in most states. And in case of emergency (fire, flood, gas/water leak, etc.) where a landlord is unable to get in - guess who's going to pay for damages?
You sir would be incorrect.

lol. cigarette smoking pales in comparison to emissions from vehicles.

worrying about second hand smoke (unless you're literally trapped in a room like a bar, etc.) is almost laughable.

If you're e*trade you'd probably only do it if you saw a long term future for crypto.

Would be funny to see PagerDuty launch an auction/market for taking on-call slots. Price goes up until someone takes it.
Really? It seems almost inevitable that they will do it, and be the first to do it as well..

bitcoin is just getting started..
Waymo is vaporware.
I assume you've never test driven or owned a Tesla.

Once you do, you'll see the light!

lol, feel like this comment has been posted for years.
The stock didn't move down at all after the (negative?) earnings call either.

Tesla is currently priced correctly.

This comment is the very definition of head in the sand lol.
I'm very very skeptical that Waymo is far ahead, if ahead at all.

Tesla has already an impressive product on the road that is constantly improving.

Waymo could (likely) go the way of vaporware for all we know.

"Why would you buy a Tesla when you can buy a Hyundai Kona for a lot less?"

Lol, is this a serious question?

200K will allow you to work almost 3X less in the long run
Unless you want to work for the rest of your life, you either earn more now, or keep earning for a longer period.

It's about achieving freedom

Certainly not worse than terrorists/bombings/etc. from cultures which I will not name.

Sounds great until you realize how much money they bring in.

In my city, Chinese luxury spending alone is holding up most of the high end retail industry.

From my experience Israelis are extremely rude.
That's still over 50 qualified applicants..
Uhm, has Winston Churchill never heard of taxes? Property tax, income tax, capital gains tax.

This.

Make sure you are getting paid what you are worth, and ignore the rating system.

Re:Fastly S-1 on Friday April 19, 2019 @09:41AM (#19699501)
It is quite small though compared to potential profits.
