EMBAs are usually part-time over 18 to 24 months, MBAs are full time over 12 to 24 months.

So an MBA naturally has a bigger (as in more in-depth) curriculum than an EMBA. It is also a significantly higher investment in terms of time and opportunity cost, since you're not getting paid during the program.

EMBAs compensate with 1) more experienced participants (so in theory you don't need the introductory classes) and 2) a lot of pre- or post-readings (e.g. my corporate law module was 12 hours in the classroom, but you were expected to have read the 400-page book, and the numerous case studies).

But the bottom line is that you don't go into as much detail as you would during a full-time program. OTOH, since EMBAs are attended by "senior" employees (managers / VPs / directors / etc), and because they're part-time, what you learn is usually directly relevant and applicable in everyday work - and you usually get to work on real-life problems (yours or your teammates) during classes.

I'm not the best placed to say whether an EMBA is considered a "lesser" MBA. They don't really fill the same niche. An EMBA is a career booster if you're say a technical manager and want to move into business or senior management. An MBA is when you haven't started working (or are still junior) and are looking for a fast track to C-level, or to work in a specific area (e.g. consulting, finance, etc.). So basically MBA vs EMBA is mainly a function of your current experience level.
>Maternity leave is guaranteed for most employees under FMLA.

You'd be surprised.

The FMLA only mandates for unpaid leave. That's unlike most western european countries. And even that's under BS conditions and subject to employer power plays as opposed to totally normal and acceptable (and paid).

Please stop with this thought process. TSLA is doing a fine job all on its own making themselves look bad. On the business side, Musk has missed how many production estimates? There are also concerns about quality. On the personal side, he's still harping on this pedophile thing /facepalm. Then what looks like a complete lie about being bought out.

The way you fix the shorts problem is to actually deliver on your promises and make some money. Deflecting that it's the shorts causing problems for TSLA is typical TSLA deflecting the horrible job they have done at running TSLA.
>After that he had a range of little annoying problems, many of which were likely software bugs, but then he (actually his GF) experienced something in autopilot mode known on the Tesla forums as "shadow braking" -- the car braking hard on the highway because it seems to see the shadow of an overpass and think it's a wall. This is extremely dangerous. It was on the I-405 (SoCal) going 70-80mph, and such a thing could easily cause a rear end collision.

Why is he not leaving the beta of Autopilot then? The car would still be better than the competition in most domain (acceleration, navigation, range...) wouldn't it?

Does your friend believe the car is worthless if it isn't on Autopilot? All benchmarks of driver assist systems show that Tesla is far better than comparable cars, so it's pretty dumb to ask for a buy-back for a car because of such a small and extra feature. He could have asked for a buy-back of the Autopilot option but then, your comment wouldn't add to the conversation (that would be a non story, actually, considering all the Tesla owners who love it).

What does he think of the rest of the car?
> I do believe that insider trading is rampant. I've seen many occasions where a large corporate announcement sends a stock up or down, but hours before, you can see the price of the stock slowly slide in the direction.

I can tell you from professional experience that is most often not insider trading. You might be surprised at the amount of meaningful information that can be legally obtained through research.

I used to (very legally) find and analyze data that would lead to better conclusions than street analysts. The results of equity earnings are basically an open secret among institutional investors before they're announced.
>I'm going to guess that a very small portion of WFMs employees have the ability to successfully negotiate their employment terms

A very small portion of all employees have that ability, much less an opportunity to attempt to negotiate the terms of their employment. I think a lot of people here overestimate the leverage that the average employee - including tech industry employees - actually have with their employers.

That's exactly the point. If I were trying to beat the infinitely compoundable returns of the whole market over a long period of time, I would have to make monumental changes to how I operate, and those changes would drastically alter the level of returns that can be realistically achieved.
Alex Jones, every day, talks about how he wants to personally kill and mutilate the elite global cabal of Jewish child-raping Democrat subhumans. Alex Jones is a violent, abhorrent, slanderous racist and peddler of distorted, hurtful propaganda.

Censorship, in small doses, can be good for society. You act like banning Alex Jones from Twitter is going to bring in Fahrenheit 451.

Like I said above: Alex Jones is bad for Twitters business. Bottom line. If you owned a business, and man routinely came into that business, every day, and shouted through his megaphone that he has video evidence that Michelle Obama is a transvestite hooker, would you not ban him from your property as well?

As someone who's not obsessively following Tesla, I'm a bit jaded by these. I'm sure there are problems, but what feels like massive PR efforts by the "shorts" has effectively poisoned the well for negative news.

As a casual observer I can't tell what's actual bad news and what's well-orchestrated market-manipulation "OMG WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE" by people trying to drop the price, and I don't actually care enough about the company to put in the effort to find out.

I think you're solely being downvoted for "bashing" MMM.

Agreed, MMM followers are die-hard. And I honestly applaud them for that. There's a middle road he also preaches about, realizing his method won't work for most people. Though I'd bet that most people don't get that far in his blog when he begins to talk about that.

I think if we use the big takeaways from what he's saying; we can all gain a little financial independence. Not everyone can get away with what he can in a beautiful town in Colorado. And he realizes that.

Musk is truly visionary. But that doesn't dictate success.

> It just requires a few years of optimization and the cars are going to be en par with established brands.

The world is littered with visionary companies that paved the way for new technology but ultimately failed themselves. "A few years of optimization" gravely undervalues the complexity of modern auto manufacturing. I will concede that it's astonishing that Tesla has come so far, so fast. But perhaps this is time for an inflection point.

> people do not care about such things nearly as much.

You're right that Tesla's customers aren't influenced much by this news in particular. But Tesla's long-term success will be impacted by their capability to attract talent. If Musk drives away all the talented R&D, marketing, finance leaders, he'll be stuck with second-rate talent. It's clear that he has shown that there's a luxury EV market. True, the big players move slowly but won't hesitate to pivot into this space.

> the 50% that outperform

Not even. After you take your brokerage's fee structure into account, you've got to nominally outperform the market by a fairly decent margin in order to stay ahead of the market. The amount by which you need to depends on the rate at which you incur those fees, so day traders are giving themselves the toughest row to hoe in this department.
The automatic quoting that email applications perform gives me a headache. 90% of the emails I receive require no quote, yet contain like 20 levels of indented quotes from the chain of messages that add nothing but noise. Modern mail readers already chain the messages together, but are not perfect when it comes to filtering out the quotes.

In my opinion, people should be more involved with the quoting of the previous message. Perhaps the customer could highlight the part of the previous message they want and have that become the quote. Or maybe a button when we write an email that will pull in the messages we're responding to as a quote.
The driver behind a vehicle is primarily responsible for any rear end collision (US-specific, YMMV elsewhere). Should probably not tailgate a Tesla (or tailgate in general).

> How the fuck are these cars legal anywhere???

They're legal because Autopilot is driver assistance. The driver is still 100% responsible, just as they would be for cruise control.

"Imagine you’ve got to build a network that delivers data no matter what, because the mission is critical.

And not just “mission critical” in the business sense–sometimes actual lives are at stake.

However, the constraints are enormous. All you’ve got to work with are satellite links with high latency and low throughput, no terrestrial infrastructure unless you provide it yourself, the very highest imaginable security requirements, and a limited budget.

This scenario is normal for the military. Here to chat with us about networking in this highly specialized environment is PC Drew.

We discuss issues such as working with bandwidth constraints, hostile environments, training and skills development, and more."

Hard braking at 80mph isn't as dangerous as not seeing a tractor trailer, but it could definitely cause a serious accident.

I'm starting to understand why all the other self-drive companies use active sensors like lidar. You need that to compensate for the fact that the AI actually driving the car is less intelligent than a honeybee.

A self-drive "AI" is dumb. It's just a glorified expert system with a lot of pattern recognition and other stuff bolted on. But the performance of dumb things can sometimes be improved by giving them more information. Self-driving cars need super-human senses.

Lidar is doubly special because its an active sensing system. If the car hits an undecidable edge case it can probe it to see if it's physical or a lighting artifact. It needs to be able to do this because it has no higher order conceptual model of the world to reference. It doesn't "know" what an overpass or the sun "are."

Edit: This principle is also why "big data" has helped revive "AI." We need big data because our AI isn't very I. Biological intelligences do incredible things with very small amounts of data because they have more I. What's so impressive about biology is what it can do with small data.

Thanks for trying! I did the same round. Tried to get v6, and finally gave up, because everything was broken in very stupid ways.

> I don't get why they

Because it happened in the early 90s, and since then all the RFCs that got layered upon that had to try and keep things consistent.

There could have been a simpler thing, but it was scrapped. IPv5 is missing for a reason.

And the goodies cannot be opt-in, otherwise no one will opt-in.

Of course this leads to a very slow deployment, because v4 with a lot of hacks just work, and will continue to work. It's easier to encapsulate things in DTLS (TLS + UDP) and gRPC and whatever (and deal with all of that in end user software) than trying to convert the whole World to IPv6.

> DHCP vs autoconfig stuff,

There's DHCPv6, so you don't have to use SLAAC.
I've worked in a similar role. I broadly agree: individual investors don't really have the technical skills or the capital needed to acquire and analyze the dizzying amount of data you typically need find an edge.

That being said, an individual who specialized in that kind of data acquisition and analysis at a firm can do well on their own by targeting specific equities with only one or two streams of revenue. But it's still difficult and that individual would probably be trading in a manual capacity.
If Tesla needs more money, investors will use that as a leverage to get the Elon Musk problem addressed.

It would be good for everyone if there is intervention that corrects the problem and Musk could continue. Investors can demand to have someone who can veto his craziest decisions and publicity or they can force him out. Musk has structured the board so that nobody has power over him. He must know that if asks more money that changes.

Musk seems to be highly functioning bipolar (he thinks so himself). It's probably mild form of bipolar disorder called cyclothymic disorder or something similar. People with cyclothymia are at increased risk of developing full-blown bipolar disorder over time.

The problem is that that his mental issues may get out of hand during stressful situations. Musk has been showing signs of slipping from hypomania to full mania for the last year: little sleep, endless energy, lowered inhibitions, erratic quick decisions and unnecessary confrontations. If he publicly calls people he has never met pedophiles, I just can't imagine how bad the situation is with the people who have to deal with him every day.

Musk has already achieved so much. It would be shame if it all ends in tragedy.

One thing I would love to see in a city generator like this is a simulation of time and how gradual evolution shapes a city.

There's a picture book called "Barmi: A Mediterranean City Through The Ages" by Xavier Hernandez and illustrated by Jordi Ballonga. It illustrates a fictional city from Neolithic settlement to Roman outpost to medieval town to modern city. Some images can be seen at http://jordiballongaen.blogspot.com/p/baronia.html

In this book, you see how a Roman amphitheater decays during the Dark Ages, and the structure is partially used and cannibalized to create a circular set of apartment buildings, which then influences the later layout and design of the city in modern eras.

Procedural generation unfortunately tends to try to generate everything at once, as if a medieval city was created ex nihilo. It would be interesting to see what it would look like if such designs incorporated evolution over time.

This is really impressive! I'm gonna look more into it after work.
I think the point is more that the slowing down is going to happen anyway if production systems are repeatedly catching on fire and people are afraid to make changes. At that point the difference is how having or not having tests will affect things in the longer term.

>Needless to say we will not be uploading consciousness anytime soon

I'd say that uploading consciousness is an entirely orthogonal problem to AI. Uploading a consciousness is all about scanning the brain and simulating it accurately. It doesn't involve any AI since the intelligence already exists. Conversely if you succeeded with uploading it wouldn't necessarily help with AI, since it would still be hard to see how the brain was working.

So I don't think progress in one field can tell you anything about the other.

I don't think so for my usage and I shared it because it's cost effective and would be acceptable for a lot of devs' projects. I still get UptimeRobots notifications if Zapier or Twilio hiccups. For the phone notifications, if the system fails on a given night it's not the end of the world if I don't wake up. I can fix in the morning.

But I agree for e-commerce or mission critical applications - you need redundancy and it's worth ponying up the extra money for an advanced system.
What's fishy? I've been following Tesla since 2010 and the main changes since then isn't what appears to be fishy but what the media are making of it.

Do you realize that Tesla sold more cars in the US that Mercedes and BMW this summer? How many media reported that?

Do you know that the most trusted car analysts who tear-down the car said it's expected to be the most profitable car produced in high volume?

Do you know that all data analyses about turnover in top positions at Tesla indicated that they are average? How many reports about such moves (at legacy automakers) make headlines?

They've only increased their coverage of the company and try their best to make every thing more clickbait. It's worked great so far, for sure.
