I am using the term value in a more personal/human sense than a purely economic one. Most of the comments replying to mine seem to be defending this behavior based on these more technical economic arguments (understandable on HN). I'm talking about the value that is created by a person creating and doing things, rather than simply finding opportunities to arbitrage for a quick buck. It's subjective so we can agree to disagree if you find the type of behavior described in the article to be valuable.
These also exist at Google.
This is very interesting from an academic/theory point of view.

There currently aren't a lot practical use cases where we can afford a performance loss of ~100,000,000x (your homomorphic crypto algorithm is going to run on the order of ~Hz on a ~Ghz CPU).
To Catch a Counterfeiter
This street is immediately to the west, as you come out of the Presidio (Masonic Gate). It looks exactly like an ordinary public street - there's no gate or anything (although there is a sign posted). I once tried to walk in there, to gawk at the houses. Right at the entrance, where the private street meets the public street, I was stopped by a guard who told me this was a private street, and I wasn't permitted to enter.

So I kind of hope the new street owners let people go for a walk in there...
"The library supports the homomorphic evaluation of the 10 binary gates (And, Or, Xor, Nand, Nor, etc…), as well as the negation and the Mux gate."

So you'd program it by designing a digital circuit using AND, OR, and NOT gates, somewhat similar to how you would make a circuit with physical components.

You have millions, maybe billions of these gates in your CPU, each capable of doing millions of calculations for each tick of your homomorphic gate, so the "fast" in the title should be taken with a grain of salt. Your homomorphic circuit could have a noticeable delay adding two 64-bit numbers.

With regards to 1), does anyone know the extent they all USD $1.5B right away (outside of their sec filings)?

Probably right on 2) to some (most?) degree, but big institutional players are making moves in cryptocurrency markets who might have pull over tesla and the ear of those at FINCEN/SEC, to get someone to give the rubber stamp green light on their "security"?

Then again with gov bonds being oversubscribed in general, people are looking for more in the private market and Tesla is a realistic option?

You can compute a loop by essentially building a CPU out of gates. But you're right that this would be impractically slow even with this latest improvement in performance.

> Bitcoin began to rise in 2009

Bitcoin came into existence in January of 2009. What was it supposed to do? Start stealing its owners' money and go negative?

Also, everything rose in 2009. The S&P 500 was up 23%. Bonds were up, commodities were up...that's what happens after you scrape past a global financial meltdown. Sure, Bitcoin was up like five thousand percent, but that's the difference between a tens of millions and hundreds of billion in market capitalisation, things that are very volatile and things that are not, and venture versus mature.
This is one of the best-written books ever! Most non-fiction works strive (knowingly or not) to reach such a fine form. Words are massaged into terms, sentences into propositions, and certain paragraphs into arguments. This work is the purest form of that, a true paragon with enviable succinctness. Even if you're not into math, try picking up a copy of Euclid's Elements to see how articulate thoughts _can_ be.

A lot of what affects the NYC subway is the principle of the "Sick System."

The system is too essential for a stop-the-world overhaul, but so far gone, that only a stop-the-world overhaul can part the clouds.

Without a hard flush of antiquated mission critical infrastructure, millions of turbulent eddies and vortices will ensure that the system is always afflicted by parasitic equipment and debris.
Easy, it makes it a tougher problem for "them" (note I wrote "politicians") since there are simply more guns. It also expands the industrial base. I estimate the AR15 industry alone is probably $1B; shutting down that alone won't go over well.

It's also just basic civil disobedience. If they want to ban encryption, you encrypt everything. If they want to ban guns, you buy more guns. If they want to ban pot, you have a smoke out on the capital grounds.
Depending on the easement they might not be able to charge. I know in California some easements do allow for transitory parking.

Leasehold, freehold, and feudal tenure are all separate things. You can have leaseholds in Scotland, but it is not that common. Leaseholds are much more common in England.

Leasehold is something that has been in the news lately. Leasehold is a legal apparatus that makes some types of property management work, somewhat akin to stratifying a property in American and Canadian terms.

Freeholders owns the underlying land, with the leaseholder owning a right of access of sorts. Freeholders generally charge the leaseholders service charges, but like anything, this can and has been abused. Like the current controversy with Leaseholds being sold to unsuspecting home buyers.

Because currently, the residents would riot over the taxes/fees cost of redundancies required to enable faster maintenance and upgrade projects of a 24x7x365 operating system, where the pain of maintenance is constantly deferred until it turns into a looming, critical safety-liability issue. Back when the population density was lower and the pace of life slower, and less economic dependencies upon this infrastructure, the disruptions were affordable and more palatable, but now there are likely powerful stakeholders pressuring the Port Authority from taking as many outages as they'd like these days, comparatively. When I used to live in NYC, the Port Authority took a lot of abuse from a lot of different quarters for every line shutdown for planned maintenance. Increases in fares to fund future expansion/maintenance was met with a lot of resistance. They were like sysadmins for NYC.

Actually, my reading is that they are ultimately pretty set on static typing and want to use a strong static typing base and build in some dynamic components:

Static typing is a powerful tool to help programmers express
their assumptions about the problem they are trying to solve
and allows them to write more concise and correct code. Dealing with uncertain assumptions, dynamism and (unexepected) change is becoming increasingly important in a loosely couple [sic] distributed world.

Where they go wrong is that they are lax in their understanding of 'a well-typed program cannot go wrong' (at runtime). They use the example of reading query resultsets, but those resultset reader methods are wrongly typed because they don't account for the possibility of error. So that's really a strawman.

But it's interesting to see their idea about what essentially became Scala's (and potentially OCaml's) typeclass machinery (using implicit witnesses). I guess a lot of people were thinking about typeclasses and implicits around that time.
AFAICT, the source you cited (dated 2013) quantifies the investors merely as 'many Spaniards', and from the grandparent's source, we know that the Bitcoin market cap around that time was around $1bn, which is not even rounding error on the scale of financial markets. You're not ignoring the data, you're imagining it.
Not doable whatsoever, as that would actually constitute mass murder rather than self-defense of each officer. Lawful and moral use of deadly force against any individual requires that that specific person first present deadly force themselves.

So, to be clear, my overall point here is that bribing people from threatening deadly violence, is not as good as directly responding to such threats when and as they are made.

Come to think of it, I'm not even quite sure why you made the leap that "allow riots to occur then respond to them appropriately" means "murder all the poor people".
Have you considered a Chevy Volt or Toyota Prius Prime? Both could take care of most of your daily driving on full electric power, but have the hybrid mode available for road trips. The Volt actually looks pretty good too -- in my opinion, best looking car in GM's lineup right now. But with Toyota's aggressive pricing and tax incentives, the Prime is dirt cheap, especially the well-equiped model.
You could say the same about most forms of rent-seeking behavior.
Personally I'm not right-wing... Actually quite the opposite. However, I feel that to randomly comment on some perceived shortcoming of the GIT community in a post meant to celebrated a new offering (especially when the comment is randomly about the gender representation given the current events, and the dismissive defense when called out), is disingenuous and "dickish".

If that wasn't the intent, then I'm sorry.
After 10 years of open competition, it can be reasonably concluded that Apple's products must offer some kind of extra value that others can't. The ease of use of Facetime, the convenience of getting a replacement device at a local Apple Store immediately and restoring with iCloud, the ability to send SMS/MMS/iMessage from macOS. And biggest of all, no worries about bloat ware and malware.

Branding alone won't work in the long term, you have to also provide a superior experience, which obviously apple's ecosystem does. Similarly, Tesla has the branding right now, and will enjoy their premium if they continue to deliver quality. But if they don't, and other manufacturers step up, then people will gradually buy something else.
> Why do we get to park for free on government land?

Because presumably, your tax money is already paying for it.
I agree with that, but that article says the _average_ American parking space costs six hundred dollars PER YEAR. How does that make any sense whatsoever? Maybe in downtown areas in a few big cities. But that's the average for the entire country. There's no possible way that can be true.
That's the problem with algorithms. Even if they're right 90% of the time, the 10% errors are so much more noticeable.
They should turn it into a homeless shelter or Methadone Clinic -- like what the SF Rich do to the poor areas.
Which is all just another way of saying (albeit more interestingly and in more detail), that when new information becomes available, the market adjusts to better reflect the true value of things.
I hate to break it to you, but the vast majority of press (and certainly blog) articles are written without actually talking to anyone; they're based on public information and--at most--email requests.

If the founders were doing the right thing here, they probably wouldn't have felt the need to dodge all my questions. I'd have gotten clear answers with evidence to back them up. Normal companies do this.

Also, if Airmule wanted an interview, they could have replied asking for a phone call and giving me their phone number.

For folks who claim I didn't clearly represent myself: My Twitter handle identifies me as a Seat 31B blogger, I emailed them from my seat31b.com address, and I publicly stated on Twitter that I was planning to blog about this. I don't know how it could possibly be any more clear. Yes, like many people in the startup community I do more than one thing (I am also involved with multiple startups) but given that these very different lines of business (a dating app and an information security consulting firm) I don't think there could be any reasonable confusion.

None of this actually happened, so I think it's pretty clear what's going on here.
Yes, that's what I do as well.

Also, I go to the movies more often to see the films I'm actually interested in.

Baby Driver was my favorite movie of the year--in fact, the best movie I've seen in many years.

Dunkirk, Detroit, and Inconvenient Sequel all good as well!
Donald Shoup would be proud. Free parking is generally a menace to cities.
It the fundraising really necessary or just a way to sort of overproduce in anticipation of high demand? As it is, they pretty much have that $1.5B in preorder money alone right? Unless, he's just somehow pouring extra money into SpaceX instead.
This mentality highlights the hubris of Silicon Valley. Manufacturing is not easy, and the "tech" that Tesla has isn't unique. Their main advantage is good design which is arguably easier to copy than manufacturing or software.

Wasn't there some quote along the lines that "you can judge a society by how it treats the lowest"? I suppose it depends on your definition of "lowest", but I'm also a fan of Rawls' theory of justice which is roughly: a just policy is one which you would accept without knowing which side
of it you'd be on.
So one thing I do like about the landing page is how it shows the constant activity on the website. But oh how treacherous & subtle an art it is catering to the lizard-brain! Imagine blackjack, but where 17, 18, 19, & 20 are all busts (in addition to anything over 21.)

Maybe you could create an overlay that pops up on the users 1st visit (that said everyone hated Clippy...overlays can be really annoying depending on how cumbersome they are.

Or maybe you could divide the landing page in half?

>Half the time when I called the hotel chain for a room reservation they offered a lower price then Booking.com. Think Hilton or IHG

Yes, this is possible in some (not all) countries, there is a clause in booking.com and similar web aggregators/portlas/whatever you call them contract about the "parity rate" where you cannot sell the same room at a price lower than the one advertised on booking.com, expedia, etc..

Little by little Law in several countries has been modified to make the clause a null one, Germany, Austria, France, in a hopefully near future Italy:

http://hotelanalyst.co.uk/2017/05/16/hotels-accused-of-freer...

But for the sake of reasoning it changes little as - as said - both unit prices and hypotherical increase in presence were just "invented" and the saving is of course for the visitor so the city/place (globally) won't see those anyway.
> I would not imagine any libertarians would want to overturn the sale as it would completely defy the idea of property rights.

There are certainly libertarian arguments to be made for honoring the sale.

But I think it's going a little far to claim that overturning a process in which the government assesses a tax on the ownership of your property, doesn't inform you that you owe it, and later sells that property on your behalf without notifying you, "would completely defy the idea of property rights". You're talking about a contract transferring ownership of property, to which the owner of the property is not a party.

You could make a much stronger libertarian argument that the existence of a property tax in the first place "completely defies the idea of property rights".
They both have combustion/electric hybrids. The operational logistics of battery powered vehicles restrict the range of use cases relative to vehicles that can be quickly refueled using ubiquitous infrastructure -- It is much easier to drive a Tesla into Wyoming than to drive out the other side, while it is no more difficult to drive a Prius across Wyoming than a non-hybrid combustion vehicle.

For a while, when I was more bullish on all electric cars, I think it was because I drew the wrong analogy from my smartphone. Sure, smartphone battery life is inconvenient, but unlike an electric vehicle, I can still use it while it recharges. An electric vehicle isn't useful while plugged in; I cannot run to the hardware store for a new flapper when the toilet is leaking when the battery is low. It's similar to railroad motive power trending toward diesel electric...there are use cases where all electric makes sense and justifies the infrastructure, but not the general case.
