I've heard this alternately stated: "It's better to be poor: you're just as unhappy as a rich person, but you still have hope that money will help."
Elon claimed they had a chance at 100,000 a few days ago. Based on that this isn't meeting expectations.

Also, the revenue is what matters and the breakdown of 3 vs S vs X indicates they will have significantly lower ASPs and probably will post a YoY revenue decline. That's not great.
Wouldn’t it be wondrous if the galaxy had plentiful intragalactic public transit and we don’t have access because we’re the planetary equivalent of the suburbs?
On Instagram the poster matters, on Reddit the poster does not.
This means it's completely different.
A random made-up user on Instagram will have no audience, a random made-up user on Reddit will.
Additionally, Instagram has an opportunity to form a relationship with the popular users and can control their accounts in specific if it wishes.
Unless it is more than expected.

>Issues are often just ignored until they go away.

In someways thats part of the reason our Medicare program is so expensive.

In the US we essentially go an entire lifetime without regular/preventative care, then when patients become eligible for Medicare, they have a lifetime worth of chronic illness that is treated on the tax payers dime.

7 out of 10 Medicare have at least 1 chronic condition, and chronic conditions are notoriously expensive to treat. Whereas nearly 100% of chronic conditions could be avoided if the patient had regular/preventative care (for example identifying prediabetics or patients with high blood pressure, or heart disease) while they were young enough to make the lifestyle changes to avoid these conditions altogether. Our system is essentially designed to ensure patients are both chronically ill and expensive before they are eligible for coverage.
And where did they get that number from?
Actually national view adjusted for the cost of living is still interesting. The unadjusted numbers are not so relevant, given some huge differences between parts of the country - looking at SV at the high end one still wonders how the average teacher could live there.
alacritty is ok-ish. Probably better than most alternatives.
Putty is still faster.
And putty switches between tmux windows immediately while streaming the output. While alacritty has a visible delay (some times seconds) for that.
Sure if you're using local tabs instead of remote tmux it may not matter that much.
If Libra succeeds as a payments network and platform, then it’s possible that the only fee will be from fluctuations in exchange rates; this is in effect a zero remittance fee.

Libra itself can still make money by investing the float (money that doesn’t leave the system).
If someone is left-handed, and left-handedness has been shown to be very strongly correlated with a different brain structure, would you challenge them similarly if they state that they have a different brain structure because they are left handed?

Do you need to personally participate in studies to know anything about your body?

Where can I find this survey by The Economist?
They had a leaked email posted last week that they were pushing for 100K. So 97k is less than was priced into the stock. Not sure why institutional investors don't like the stock and it's so heavily shorted and twitchy.

Tesla could use a COO to manage operational expectations and let Elon focus more on engineering in the future. It'll keep his twitter/email free from setting market expectations.
Is this good though? They didn't meet expectations.
I'm the antithesis of an expert in this. If someone has better information, I'm sure you'll let me know. What I've picked up thus far as the consistent physical differences between male and female brains are:

1. Dominant synapse connection direction. Males typically have more front to back connections than side to side. This may explain why females typically are better at multi-tasking, and males are typically more focused.

2. Testosterone in the womb enlarges the 3d manipulation part of the brain.

3. Testosterone in the womb has some connection to sexuality. In particular, women typically show signs of arousal towards sex without any filter (ie, animals, same gender, w/e). Typical males will show no signs of arousal to certain things (typically other males). Also, twins boys have a significantly greater likelihood of homosexuality (less testosterone to go around).

There's plenty of other differences I'm sure, and many of these may not be true. But this is what I've noted thus far.
Ackermann Steering Geometry
Yeah, I'm not in education, but I was surprised to 'learn' that private schools generally pay less than their public counterparts -- and I've continued to understand that to be the case, but I'd love more information on the matter to correct any misunderstandings I might have.
WOW! That would very exhausting.. is this norm these days to have full day interview sessions?
Study claimed a GMO trial went horrifically wrong. The study’s authors disagree
I guess? It's intimately related to the hypothalamic–pituitary–thyroid axis. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypothalamic–pituitary–thyroid...

But I'm not sure what you're getting at. Trust me, inject 500mg of testosterone a week, you're going to notice changes.
Perhaps. I'm a little concerned that if this approach is used for diagnostics that it becomes another form of gatekeeping. (i.e. someone is transgender but denied treatment because their brain scans come up as cis.)
I don't see how they're any less related to peace and innovation.
Once when I was a recruiter I got a call from one of my clients because they said that my consultant was being irritable. I called the consultant and he told me that it had been a week and a day and he still hadn't been issued a company computer to work on.

Notice the keen implication in the title that testosterone causes reduction in cognitive empathy - making the reader now brainstorm ways to prove the hypothesis instead of considering if its the correct question to be asking in the first place.

To illustrate my point, consider if this was the title:
There is no evidence that being female reduces cognitive function.

Besides, what's the minimum chunk size? Can't be less than the 64-bit word size can it? The chances of a random 8-byte gravestone appearing in legit memory is practically nil. If free() took only 1ns to run and you called it 2^64 times, that would take >500 years.
That first line after the chart is the big takeaway in my opinion. The backlog of orders increased this quarter which is both good news, since it shows demand is not a problem, and bad news, since Tesla still can't produce cars fast enough.
> Many white people have been denied housing, education, and jobs because of their skin.

That's true. And that's one of the things that a FaaS/PaaS gives you. Heroku's 24 time limit is perfect for eliminating the problems with starting the environment for each request, but still completely absolves the client from doing the grunt OS maintenance.
TSLAQ is actually quite happy with this number, with the stock down 5% AH.

The multiple on this stock has it pegged to be an extreme growth company, but 5% annualized delivery growth with shrinking ASPs is decidedly not a "growth" number.

TSLAQ is wrong that it's a fraud and/or insolvent. But they're absolutely right that its valuation is absurd and needs to eventually come down to meet reality.
Same. Have been thinking about taking a 6-month sabbatical from all things tech, but then worried I might just become so obsolete and out of touch that I'd rather suck it up.
Is there a slow down trend in the number of successful companies funded more recently, say in the last 4 years?

I know it takes time for startups to become successful. it just seems that the pre 2015 era had more successful startups. That would mirror the broader trend we see in the marketplace of fewer and fewer successful startups.

Slightly offtopic, but what extraordinarily well done alt text for the major images on this page. An example:

> "The most current map of the Milky Way is shown in an artist’s representation. The Sun is directly below the galactic center, near the Orion Spur. The Scutum-Centaurus arms sweeps out to the right and above, going behind the center to the far side."

They aren't quite following best practices with attribute usage, a screenreader may read both the alt and the title text for example and they're the same here, but to have the level of detail is really commendable.
Some of these things are making their way into the Pick world.

UniVerse, for example, gained proper transaction support at some point in its lifetime. When I showed the consultant developer, an old-school Pick guy, how that worked he was very impressed.

Granted, it was fairly limited since they somewhat faked it using the regular locking mechanisms and it was only usable within UniVerse BASIC, but it did what it said on the tin. I ended up writing my own simple command interpreter which allowed me to use the UniVerse command prompt and BEGIN/COMMIT/ROLLBACK transactions.

Transactions are definitely foreign to a LOT of Pick code though. I also worked on an ERP system that ran on a Pick-style system - if it crashed during GL posting it was completely possible, and this did happen frequently, that you would get a half-posted entry and an out-of-balance ledger. Had they just used the transactions that the underlying database supported they would not have had that problem.

The equivalent in the SQL world is to use your database connection in autocommit mode, which is pretty rare. Most developers know to use transactions or work with a framework that intelligently uses transactions.
It's that you can get much better pay in Poland. Especially for lower skill jobs, higher skill jobs are not that different. It's easy to get legal employment and residence. The countries are close culturally and linguistically.
And, of course, Poland is better developed -- materially and societally -- so the quality of life is better too.
I think that at this point Ukraine can provide as many workers / migrants as Poland can absorb.
And Poland can absorb a lot -- after its own big wave of emigration farther to the West.
Stock trading is the ultimate way to make money. The commissions are free. The platform is open to US citizens, residents, and hopefully one day, the whole world.

Your account is usually secure and accessible from anywhere with an internet connection. Many free and easy 3rd party tools exist for you to gather data about your trades. Filing taxes on your trades is easy for a nominal fee using tax software.

There's just one issue. Not everyone is a winner. And it's usually the retail investor who loses, not the big bank.

Have you ever watched a person with vision challenges using VoiceOver with the speed cranked up? I bet they could absorb the info they need to know about a menu before the average reader could, even before any hierarchical organization is exposed to the text-to-speech process. The visual hierarchical and keyword navigation you describe is just what I'm talking about with a voice interface, too.

Just yesterday a colleague I was pairing with was VoiceOvering JSON packed with API keys and stack traces. I, conversely, have many times stood with the fridge door open trying to find something that was plainly front and center. Of course, the answer for many things may be a combination of both hearing and vision.

I also wonder if this easily navigable menu you are thinking of is already cognitively mapped in your mind, and you know what to look for. What if the menu is in a foreign or second language, that the voice assistant could translate for you? Or is a completely foreign-to-you cuisine, or just creatively organized in a way you aren't used to, like by seasonality, emotion or geography? I've sat and stared at some dense menus, that I've had to reread multiple times to remember just a subset of the items. In the end I asked the waiter something like in my example: "something with shrimp" or "what do you like?"

I'm not so sure about the things you say will never or always be, and I don't even consider myself an optimist. Finally, thanks for taking this ride with me, it's definitely made me consider more things!
In the last 4 quarters Tesla has delivered 271,521 model 3s. That would make it about the 12th best selling car in america. That is about as many escapes ford has sold. That is pretty phenomenal.
Yeah - is that not the case?

There’s also magic leap, but I found their hardware pretty disappointing and I’d be surprised if they survive to actually be a serious player in AR platforms.
It's true, and while I also believe teachers should be paid more relative to other occupations, labor market has one thing going for it that makes it hard to replace - it's a very simple process that doesn't require any central coordination.
Good thing they have another factory coming online this quarter :-)
> If a normal employee at say walmart brings in $100 worth of value a day to the company

If all the normal employees quit and Walmart can't replace them, how much money does Walmart lose?

Perhaps we should calculate value to the company based on that sort of reasoning.
That's interesting, but I am sorry you have to deal with it. Thanks for following up.
They should ask the same of 4chan. If you think Reddit, YouTube, and Facebook are bad...

Well it would be "less risk", maybe even "riskless" so I guess you'd need a new language named "restless"?
I haven't read the underlying study, which might redeem it a bit. But this article makes it look like trash.

It starts off __BAD__:

> The research team asked 379 Singaporean young adults whether their parents lied to them when they were children, how much they lie to their parents now, and how well they adjust to adulthood challenges.

It gets __MUCH WORSE__:

> 379 Singaporean young adults completed four online questionnaires.

(I actually came here to make a wisecrack about religion, but didn't have the stomach for it after reading the article)
I'm sure that can be improved in future iterations. It's a much-needed innovation in the stagnant laptop market.

Thanks for your comment. Ok I understand what you mean. My intention was to show, that I am not a newbee in community work but in reddit. I was obviously not able to transport the fact, that I felt offended by the behavior of the moderator.
One day I saw 3 Tesla car carriers parked at the truck stop right next to each other (so about 26 or so Teslas - all model 3s). That was a bit unusual, there is typically one Tesla car carrier per day. This was off the 5 in CA (and at a Casino - lol)

Testosterone is generated a number of ways in the human body - but most of it comes from the testicles in men.

A smaller amount is from the pituitary in both men and women.

Depending on your weight there is an enzyme created in fat cells called aromatase which converts testosterone to estrogens which can have an impact on your overall hormonal picture.

Testosterone is derived in the body from cholesterol, which is way proper fat consumption is so important for a healthy endocrine system.
you're right, it's not important to have an educated citizenry. we can just set them up with iPads and have them watch YouTube all day for a lot less - let's get a couple startups going on this ASAP - keywords: disruption, innovation, EdTech, Hadoop

in all seriousness, i'd love for the US government to throw serious cash at teachers' salaries. it's basically a wise investment in the country's future. so what if they're daycare teachers? we have plenty of $ to spend on providing a safe place and food for our children in the US for 8 hours a day. a lot of the money is spent on the backend on welfare or prisons anyway, so it's probably not very expensive when the externalities are factored in.

looking outside the US, i think Finland understood they had no resources other than timber, snow, and their population and started tooling up their educational system, to the tune of high salaries/prestige/perks or something for teachers (someone will correct me here). anyway, they do really well on int'l standardized tests (yes this is not ideal, but is useful at least as a relative measurement) and seem to have one of the highest per capita incomes in the world, low GINI, etc.

if it weren't so darned cold and dark seasonally, i'd be interested in relocating there for the sake of my children's education.

My new urologist is having me try OTC drugs (Zyrtec, ibuprofen, benadryl) as he said that it can be linked to inflammation/allergies where NSAIDs and anti-histamines can help. I'm trying those out to see what happens. Did your doctor send you through that course of treatment to try out?
