It’s alarming to see the volume of kneejerk defensiveness here. You can idolize Elon Musk but still have a fact-based, rational perspective. You can be rooting for Tesla in the most tribal and idealistic way imaginable and still see their financial challenges clearly and analytically.
Picking stocks like that is not considered a good way of investing your money (unless its a small portion which you specifically don't expect to appreciate). I urge you to reconsider your financial planning and perhaps take a look at ETF's.
I have nothing against public housing but I don't see how it would help solve this problem. Any land on which the city would build such housing would cost a fortune (whatever a private developer would pay) and the city would either have to charge the current market rate (minus some small subsidy) to make up for this, or rent the units at a huge loss. Given that there'd need to be a huge amount of such housing to have any noticeable effect on the market, you're proposing to completely bankrupt the city.

Public housing can provide a nice subsidy for a small group of people at the bottom, but it can't be used on a giant scale to fix a failed market in which even wealthy tech workers can hardly afford a house. What's needed is to simply build more housing, and to make it cheaper for developers to do so (fewer permits, simpler processes) so that's it's actually economical to build non-luxury apartments.

Funny you should use the phrase "black helicopter." During the Cold War, the military used tiny nuclear reactors to power automated remote sensing stations in the Arctic. We called them "Power Pigs" and they were delivered by helicopter to very remote places.

They were fascinating little devices, and because of where they were placed, used the outside air/ice/snow/rocks for cooling.

Don't know if they are still being used, or what happened to the old ones, but they were very clever technology.
Agreed. Imagine what might be possible if SV employers were willing to spend $15k per employee annually on making remote teams awesome, as opposed to paying (I'm just guessing) $25k/year in salary and rent to keep them in SV.

I don't know what a real solution would cost, but it's a question worth asking IMO.
At least google doesn't block rarbg or thepiratebay. Good riddance to CF.
Don't call your movement YIMBY when the YIMBY position is the exact same as the NIMBY one, but you want to feel morally superior. Both support building as long as they don't have to bear the cost. NIMBYs in the Marina support building in The Mission the same way Mission YIMBY supports building in the Sunset and Richmond.

I live in Nob Hill. There's a unit going up across the street from me, but it's not that big and didn't affect me so I don't mind. I went to some of the meetings and had no comment.

I 100% support building in San Francisco. Just as long as it doesn't affect me. And the reality is that's true for everyone. So we should figure out how to actually deal with that reality.

For sure. I've come to the conclusion that most people are just too closed minded to hear anything that does not align with their side. It is a particularly good mindset to adapt right around election years.
My point is that a train is not a teleporter. A train spreads population density over a larger area, with multiple stops and takes more time to move people than an imaginary sci-fi device. The comparison is not fair and pointless. Why not just talk about how trains would work instead of using an imprecise analogy.
Why would they have gone to box 40 in the first place had they not gotten a number 40 from elsewhere?
> If just one prisoner does not find his number, all prisoners die.

You're trying to find a strategy that is successful for all prisoners. Following the chain reduces the problem to "is there a cycle of length >50", which can be calculated easier.

Opening boxes randomly (or arbitrarily, as in "50 boxes starting with my number), by all prisoners, is 50%100 which as mentioned is vanishingly small. The trick is that chain-following actually gives information to each prisoner as they go, which helps leverage into a better win chance.

If you're already accruing the supposed negatives of being associated with the industry (and I emphasize supposed, given that tech is also the region's biggest economic driver these days), you might as well have the dollars too. Tech companies are struggling to hire people in the Bay because of the housing crisis, it's entirely rational that they would start supporting efforts to fix the problem. At least in this case corporate interests are mostly aligned with public interests.

Better than Elon's exponential approximations: https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/881757617416056832

I'm not necessarily saying "TSLA Will definitely run out of money in 3-quarters". I'm saying "TSLA is currently, on a linear-approximation track to run out of money in 3-quarters".

Obviously, the Model 3 rampup will improve profitability. But the Model 3 Ramp-up also requires more resources (more humans in the assembly line. More robots in the assembly line. etc. etc.). So that still requires money.

A linear approximation is basically a quick-but-shitty-approximation. Its really easy to calculate and full of flaws, but full of flaws in a way that almost everyone can immediately understand.

Exponential approximations (ie: Musk's approach) might be more realistic... since production lines can exponentially grow to some degree. But if you are off by even a little bit, then you end up being ... oh I dunno... 8-months to 10 months late with your 5000-cars per-week estimate.

Also, 1895 isn't that long ago. These aren't exactly writings from ancient Greece. Lets remember this was a couple years after Chicago's 1893 fair where a lot of what we consider modern was ushered in, albeit slowly. And in this period books like War and Peace and Dracula were published. I view this period pretty contemporaneous to modern American culture in many significant ways.
The history of corporate funded cities (or even government planned ones) is not good. It takes far too long to generate a real community / cultural center vs. the time spans corporations want to work in. Also, the city governments would be highly inclined to align with the interests of the companies, not the residents, which is not a recipe for a fun place to live.

Tech workers can generally find private sector jobs that pay an incredible amount of money. This naturally discourages them from seeking Government jobs which tend to pay less (and most of the times have an inflexible, bureaucratic nature).

The GP was saying how important it was to Elon Musk to have the right kinds of investors rather than merely people who give you money. This is sort of the opposite of what a public capital market lets you do.
It's usually left out of the discussion because it really is a non-issue long term as well. With breeder reactors (technology which already exists), Th in addition to U, U/Th extraction from seawater, we have enough fission fuel to power the entire planet at current levels for tens of thousands of years, if not indefinitely.
You need not be suspicious, for mathematicians have long since already done that. What you're reading as a "math" statement is actually a meta-math statement. It doesn't say "For this set of axioms, only finitely many values of the function can be proved." It says "For any given axiomization of mathematics, only finitely many values can be proved." The number of finite values may differ for different axioms, but it will always be finite.

There isn't "a" mathematics; at this level there's lots of them, and you need to state which one you are using, which is why the title mentions ZF set theory by name. ZF is a very popular one, and is more-or-less the underpinnings of what most people learn in K-12 and even into college [1], but it is not the only one.

We can be confident about this because we can produce contradictions if some axiom set "claims" to be able to prove all of them and thereby prove the axiom set inconsistent.

[1]: I wouldn't say this is 100% true, but more because "school" mathematics simply accepts some contradictions and/or fuzziness in it in the interests of keeping it simple. For instance, in the probably-about-three-day intro to set theory you got in high school, Russel's Paradox ("the set of all sets that don't contain themselves") is probably best thought of as not so much being a paradox as simply ill-defined; school set theory isn't strong enough to hold up such a statement long enough for it to contradict itself, so to speak. If you take a good calculus course in high school you can also run up against some limitations of the somewhat informal definition of "real numbers" that you tend to get, but then you end up just sort of backing away, because the next step up in rigor from there is generally college-level-math-specialist (math major, comp sci masters, etc.)... even if a given student could handle it, it's not something we can ask for from our math teachers at scale.
I think its too early to say Dell has been a posterboy for why going private makes sense, the company was saddled with massive amounts of debt due to the trasition, and are currently struggling to keep above water.

The situation has a lot in common with why leveraged buyouts almost always end in disaster, dispite the hype surrounding them when they are first annouced.
If you're really at that point in your career, you should find both that tech screens are easy and also that there are fewer of them.
> increase occupants (which is equivalent to decreasing homelessness)

I will not increase permanent local occupants, it will increase number of occupants in general. Thats because airbnb's are out of towners using under-utilized housing stock.

Airbnb's increase homelessness, but its not about market efficiency, its about use of land. Any office building will also increase homelessness.

A fun fact that may appear surprising at first is somewhat implicit in this last paragraph: C is not Turing-complete!

The reason is precisely that C cannot "address an unlimited amount of memory", even if an unlimited amount were available. For more information, see:

https://cs.stackexchange.com/questions/60965/is-c-actually-t...

This is in contrast to languages such as Lisp and Prolog: Conceptually, they can reason about arbitrarily large structures such as lists and terms, and can faithfully model any Turing machine.
Stirling engines aren't that efficient but they are very reliable and capable of running for many years with zero maintenance. They compete with bimetallic solid state thermoelectric generators which also require no maintenance but are less efficient than Stirling engines and also degrade slowly over time.
You seem incapable of discussing the issues without trying to hold me accountable for people that I have nothing to do with. You talk about disliking tribalism, but you can’t discuss with me without going off topic and trying to make me accountable for people I haven’t mentioned.

> he was asking excellent/interesting/challenging questions and it was really interesting to me to hear Elon's answers.

In the context of an investor call, which are supposed to convey an investment thesis for the company, I cannot agree. The questions were too pie-in-the-sky to have any bearing on whether TSLA equity/debt/or hybrid have an attractive relative value. It seemed to me that Elon was simply running out the clock.
> In the grand scheme of things figuring out how to make model3's faster than they can sell them is a boring problem for Musk

It's the gateway problem to any of the ones he might find more interesting, and if he isn't willing to engage with that problem enough to satisfy investors, he should be “Chief Ivory Tower Visionary” and let someone else be CEO. Or, at least, get a COO and gracefully hand off boring operational questions to them.
There's no caesar salad on McDonald's US menu right now, but last time they offered one, it was 440 calories including grilled chicken, dressing and croutons. A Big Mac is 540. They did once offer a kale and caesar salad with crispy chicken that hit 730 calories with dressing in Canada.

Depends on context, I randomly tossed it does not imply all locations it might end up are equally likely. As it rolls after impact it's more likely to end up in a dip than on top of a hill etc. At best the direction is random but not necessarily the angle with respect to the ground.

I wonder what do you mean by "not useful"? They just have to participate in the reputation system, but that's an issue only when the certificate is young.

Here's an excerpt from MSDN:

> Detractors may claim that SmartScreen is “forcing” developers to spend money on
certificates. It should be stressed that EV code signing certificates are not required
to build or maintain reputation with SmartScreen. Files signed with standard code
signing certificates and even unsigned files continue to build reputation as they
have since Application Reputation was introduced in IE9 last year. However, the
presence of an EV code signing certificate is a strong indicator that the file was
signed by an entity that has passed a rigorous validation process and was signed
with hardware which allows our systems to establish reputation for that entity more
quickly than unsigned or non-EV code signed programs.

> If the author and book had any valid insight, then of course young men would identify with the "bad" lifestyle in the movie

Nicely put. I don't really understand how the negative ending of Fight Club is supposed to stop people from identifying with it; it's not as though it shows another happier path people with the same sentiments ought to endorse.

"If you feel this way and commit to it completely, things will go wrong for you" is totally compatible with "many people feel this way", and if the movie wasn't relatable it's not clear to me how it would have anything useful to say.
