Probably he's gonna draw out an email by the Saudi or some other state fund declaring they're willing to take over enough Tesla stocks for effectively taking Tesla private (gotta leave some stock for Musk and employees, I guess).

For what it's worth I actually expect something alike this, the Saudi (and other Arabian) states are trying to convert their monies into something that does not depend on oil since years. Tesla and every other car company with a decent EV portfolio are and will be perfect targets for that strategy.
Nope, it can only call other side-effect free things. Note however if you call a procedure from a function the function will try to see if the proc is actually side effect free, just not marked as such. So you can still call a proc, but only if it could've been a func.
Well the SEC has access to Tesla's internal documents and came to the conclusion that he did not do these things. It makes some quite detailed claims and is worth reading:

It's not an implication. It directly states that.
Elon Musk survived the Great Recession when other car companies needed bailouts, that is pretty good line item. Ford probably would have needed one as well if Ford's didn't still run it.

Elon is also an engineer first, that is needed at innovative companies, not some metric focused MBA C-level executive just looking to cash out. Musk actually cares about what he is building and has done a smashing job considering the pressure in my opinion. Tesla is made with love, a car/product people want, not just for the short term numbers.
It's better for him if it's an obvious marijuana reference. That way he can argue it was a joke that no reasonable investor would have relied upon.

I've always wanted something similar as a devtool. I can throttle a pages bandwidth in chrome, but I can't easily put limits on how much CPU time it is allocated, and I can't constrain its memory usage or simulate swapping to disk.

Most designers and web developers chuck their stuff together on a brand new 27" iMac and it runs (and looks like) like trash on a computer an average person would own.
Sure, but an object doesn't know what variable it is assigned to (and which variable name should it pick if there's multiple).

the def syntax merely sets the name property on the function object too, since it has a name to set available. As said in other comments, nice for interactive use, irrelevant otherwise.

I don’t think Apple products are any different without Jobs, the problem is they’re nothing new either. With Jobs you knew he loved and lived technology and was always looking for cool new things to do with it. Most of his product launches did just that and brought some excitement about possibilities.

Current Apple products are meticulously, exactingly designed and built, but they’re losing the excitement and expectation of something truly new and original that Jobs brought. That’s the big difference I think a visionary leader can make.

Musk is doing the same thing with electric cars and space. Tesla and SpaceX could survive without him for a time, and since they’re very different industries than consumer electronics, maybe even thrive under a Tim Cook-like operator par excellence. But no guarantee.
Isn't that kind of the point of piling lawsuits onto someone promising that you see as competition?
This is just revisionist history and completely wrong.

Steve Jobs pretty much set Apple on the premium goods track when he returned. The iMac, iPod, iPad, iPhone were all developed under his watch and all were premium priced.

Apple has pushed the margins higher but that's only because the market can absorb it. Computing is more central to people's lives and they are willing to pay a premium for a good experience.
"At this point he's indispensable. "

If that's the case then there is a real management failure. It would be irresponsible to rely on one person.

Also look at MS and Apple. So far they have been doing fine without Gates and Jobs.

People would only follow mining power that represents their interests. They don't care about individual miners. If a majority of miners were not representing the interests of the users, the users would find a way to push those miners out and will carry on as before.

Miners can only generate revenue by mining a coin that people want to use. They want to use it because it is secured by a distribution of miners, such that no collaboration of miners can attack it. If the premise is that a group of miners can attack it, because that group of miners want to push their rules, then the concept is broken.

Total hash power is not the deciding factor. What matters is that honest participants have more hash power than dishonest ones. The honest ones can adapt far more easily than large miners, who have too much invested to handle something like a proof-of-work adjustment.

> Grails (built on spring boot) won't support anything higher than Java 8 until end of 2018.

Grails 3 is built on Boot but virtually no-one uses it. Websites using Grails have largely remained with version 2 and no-one's starting new projects in version 3, so I doubt the Grails backers will even bother to add Java 9+ support to Grails 3.

The Apache Groovy backers also seem to have given up on releasing a version 3. A few months ago, they pulled preview support for version 3 features from the upcoming Groovy 2.6. Since then, Groovy 3 has been stuck on permanent alpha version, with no-one in their project management committee showing any interest in moving it forward.

The author is entitled to his perspective, but I would equate this article to JS articles titled "A framework author's advice to avoid frameworks". Its a trendy article because it takes something that a lot of people use and describes its weaknesses. Fun to read and argue with, but not a mainstream idea.

I don't know whether he's using CAD but Musk did learn a lot of rocket science. According to aerospace consultant Jim Cantrell, one of his early hires, Musk essentially memorized several textbooks on rocket science, learned more from experts he talked with, and holds his own in engineering discussions.

Sorry for the Business Insider link but this was the best I could google at the moment; Mercury Reader can get around the adwall: https://www.businessinsider.com/how-elon-musk-learned-rocket...

Of course that team of dedicated experts is also there, and Cantrell points that out too. I'm just pointing out that Musk really does do engineering.

Edit: Here's a Quora post by Cantrell. https://www.quora.com/How-did-Elon-Musk-learn-enough-about-r...
It was already illegal, there is no need to make it more illegal.

What would be important is forbid passengers planes from flying lower than 500ft.
tesla might have succeeded if this guy was not ceo. if he is doing these kinds of shenanigans in public, i can only imagine how he runs things internal. also, from the lawsuit it seems like he is surrounded by yes men. nobody told him what he did was stupid, instead the other executives immediately jumped on board of promise train.
Shareholders don't have control over day-to-day operations. They get to pick the board, which picks the management team that actually runs day-to-day stuff. If (after this all goes down) Elon were to effectuate day-to-day control, he would be treated as an officer of Tesla in violation of the SEC order and they would likely seek jail time the second time around.
I fully agree with you, and I'm really interested in understanding how pervasive these issues are--if they are as pervasive as some claim, then we should absolutely take corresponding action.

The puzzling thing is that many of the proponents of the "sexism => gender disparity" hypothesis seem to regard digging deeper into their claims as sexism. It's almost as though they think "not being sexist" demands that we only sample/write-about/etc those women-in-tech who have horror stories about workplace sexism and anything else is "denying their lived experiences" or some such.

For example, when I try to understand why women in medicine and law in the 80s and 90s were so much more successful than women in tech today, proponents of the discrimination hypothesis come after me like I've committed some grievous moral infraction.

As I said nine days ago in this box and was roundly downvoted therefor: "Good chance that Musk will get placed on the bad actors list and will be unable to serve as an officer or executive of Telsa." What I don't understand is how this took 10% of the price of Tesla shares. How is it possible that this event, which was a 100% certainty, was not already baked into the price?
Does anyone else find it amazing that these days social media posts are becoming official government documentation? Who would've thought that the very platforms where we once just shared pictures of cats are starting to run our our elections and stock markets.
> f# (and also ocaml and sml) have all those and much more

F# has curly braces. Also, as you say, it requires some type annotations.

I see that F# has a REPL, but it seems bolted on as an afterthought instead of being an integral part of the language. (Also, it's not clear whether the REPL is available in Mono on Linux. I am allergic to Windows and anything built by Microsoft.)

> expressions are much easier to understand because they always return a value. this makes code easier to reason about. this is not true in python

Huh? Python expressions always return a value.

Perhaps what you mean is that Python also has statements, which do not return a value, whereas these languages do not--everything is an expression, as in Lisp?

> you owe it to yourself to learn an ml

I don't owe it to myself to learn anything unless I decide to. I wasn't trying to convince anyone else to use Python; I was just giving reasons why I like Python. Please extend me the same courtesy when you talk about things you like about your favorite languages.
Apple is a bad example, since it literally almost failed after they ousted Jobs... And yeah, Musk is one of very few who created major changes in several industries, and 7 billion people didn't. Removing Musk now, when Tesla is on a brink of becoming profitable can create an avalanche of bad things that will destroy it. I agree though, that tweet was very unfortunate, really doesn't seem like clever thing to do if you can't back it up.
>But they're not illegal so the point is moot

They aren't? We both agreed that procedure could be a illegal, what reason do you have to assume this procedure is legal?
It is a basic need, but they are pretty distinct features. Registrars today sprinkle features such as email hosting, authoratice DNS hosting, email forwarding, SSL certificates (lol, I know), web site builders, etc for more profit.

I really hope CloudFlare registrar will be a proper stripped down registrar. They offer you domains for the wholesale price, and it's too much to ask for email hosting.

Why? He's a huge liability to the company every day he remains with this hanging over his head. The SEC directly says he "violated, and unless restrained and enjoined will continue to violate, Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act". Other than a fine, they're pushing for him to be barred from serving as an officer of a public company.

The rich back then were greedy, just as the rich are today. Greed in 1950 is as bad as greed today. Arguing that there are more greedy people does not exonerate anyone. It's not like there being more greedy people somehow lessens the amount of greed experienced by each one. In other words, greed is not a zero-sum game.

And yes, greed is a negative trait when your greed means wasting things that you objectively do not need.
Your argument is fundamentally unconvincing because you're using unsubstantiated, subjective claims that anyone can disagree with and thereby nullify.

While you say that Jobs curbed "bad" decisions, and that now the company is "money grubbing," and that he alone kept Apple going in the "right" direction, you don't explain why you think so.

Someone could say the opposite (I don't have an opinion).

For example, far more people choose to purchase iPhones for far more money than they did during Steve Jobs' tenure, so there is some evidence that "bad" product decisions from your perspective are actually good product decisions in the eyes of Apple's customers.

Likewise, Apple's efforts to emphasize ethics and responsibility with respect to the environment, diversity and privacy are mostly new to the post-Jobs era. It may prove hard to argue that spending so much money on those priorities amounts to "money-grubbing," but I can't say for sure because you haven't really tried to argue anything at all.

Most business leaders in the world are far more capable than Musk at actually running successful companies. You just don't hear about them because they spend their time running their companies or with their families instead of bragging about what a great job they're doing on twitter. (Here's a hint: if you have to publicly brag about doing a great job, you really aren't.)
Unless he's an evil genius. There are financial advantages to tanking the value of your stock in the short term, especially if your primary goal is to increase your ownership in the company. I believe on more than one occasion he has made controversial statements which tanked the price, then purchased millions worth of shares to "inspire confidence".

Apple coasted on for a long time under Sculley as well, but in the long run, they stagnated and almost went out of business. After Jobs came back and restructured everything, they went on to become the most valuable public company in the world. It's premature to say that Apple is fine without Jobs, companies have a lot of inertia, for better or for worse.
I was at a defense contractor early in my career, and the government had this idea that our CMMI-certified process was supposed to demonstrate that defects were being found and corrected at various stages of the review and testing process.

Implicit in this was an assumption that a certain number of defects were there to be found in the first place. As a result, if you were too thorough and conscientious before your reviews it actually reflected badly on your reviewers, because they weren't finding anything. As a result, we started pushing out intermediate WIP that we knew had problems so the defects could be "found" and "fixed".

Nothing is ever 100% certainty. And this isn't the outcome, just the lawsuit. There is plenty still left to chance.

I was asking what the punishment is for similar crimes and that isn't the same as asking for what crimes have caused a similar punishment. I looked through the first few results on that page and they all seemed, in my opinion, to be more severe crimes than what Musk is accused of doing.
The world with him, is a whole lot like the world without him though.

I mean, I did the thought experiment, and I honestly don't see many things that would be different?

Are you arguing that without Musk, we wouldn't have commercial space companies, or electric cars? If so, I find that a bit difficult to believe.

The part of your comment about no one being a hero is correct. None of us are any better than anyone else, that's for sure. (It's the main reason I try never to point fingers in life actually.) But the idea that we would be worse off without Musk is just a bridge too far.

Even a world absent Steve Jobs, would have created PCs and smart phones. And, with respect to impact, Musk is no Steve Jobs.
I very much hate to see this. Not for Musk's sake, as he has been pretty much asking for something like this to happen. I hate it because of the damage it will do to Tesla and SpaceX when he's likely banned from leading a company.

Tesla's not exactly lighting the world on fire in terms of potential long term success, but SpaceX really has been doing well in recent years. The fact that they are already refurbishing solid rocket boosters is a BIG deal. Losing a CEO is a very turbulent thing, and this will only set back their progress towards affordable space flight. I hope both companies are already grooming a suitable replacement.
CSS never scales.

The point of turning it into programming is to make it scale. But all those frameworks are completely missing the point (what's the problem of web technologies? They seem to always miss the point, prioritize the non-solution, and complain loudly of anybody that complains about the actual problem). A framework can not solve the scaling problem because it's a language problem, and the preprocessors focus only on expanding things, when the specificity is a larger problem than DRY.
Most gun deaths are sucide. It's very high for men (I assume OP is male cause of this)

USA is very unusual that gun sucides are only double other guns deaths. Europe is much different.

You could argue removing sucide by gun just means sucide moves to other methods but I'd say the data doesn't show this and OP thinks this as well for them. No one is strongly arguing this here, it was just an off the cuff point.

Their story is one of the better comments here. ( The article is bullshit as others have pointed out, it's possible dangerous as it almost is saying depression and death is a choice )
Limiting Children's Screen Time to Under 2 Hrs/Day Linked to Better Cognition
Why would it be paranoia? Waking up the CPU faster and maximizing its performance will definitely drain the battery faster.

I assume the iOS12 update includes a combination of more aggressive waking and maximizing of performance along with a reverting of what they did previously to old phones when they lowered their performance to maintain the battery life of the degraded battery. If you remember there was quite a bit of scandal about this earlier this year.

My guess is your old iPhone's battery will also last half as much as it did originally within months. Yes, it's a factor of the new changes, but let's not forget it's primarily a factor of Apple using batteries that lose a significant percentage of their capacity after 2 years in the iPhones, and then hiding much of that by slowing your iPhone down. Maybe Apple should put higher quality batteries in their phones - just saying.
If you think that so called democratic socialism is not capitalism, than you just delusional, look at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_economic_... European 'social democracies' have comparable economic freedoms, some even more, and expenditures are also comparable https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Government_spending#As_a_perce...

The difference is efficiency of the government, if your government is inefficient and corrupted, and your political system has a lack of competition(US is the greatest example of that among democracies), than increase in government spending will lead you to disaster like it did with Venezuella, Zimbabwe, USSR, Kuba and etc

The question is, do you think US Government on all levels is efficient enough to be trusted with even more jobs/resources to manage? And if it's not, what the people of us should actually do to make it happen?
