If you borrow $300 billion you still have $300 billion in assets. Unless something unexpected changes, Ford won't be able to realize that Enterprise value. The number of car companies will shrink, not grow, evs are just the wave over the horizon that will really hurt them. Tesla actually has a chance to drastically grow their sales.
Generators need to be debugged, not data. It's very easy to test a generator - a few unit tests checking whether, for a given input, the generator produced the expected output, and you're set. Data sometimes needs to be cleaned, but there's no such thing as a bug in data.

Whether the generated declarative output produces the expected behavior on the part of the tool interpreting the declarative output is part of the tool's contract, not the generator or the declarative output. If you need to check the tool's behavior then either a) you wrote the tool or b) you're writing an acceptance test for the tool, which is an entirely different endeavor.
Hmm that sounds misleading for the conversation at hand.

If enterprise value is market cap - debt (forget cash) then you’re saying this is the net dollar value of owning every share of Tesla.

But “rational” investors are aware of debt. It would seem to me you should be adding the debt to the perceived future earnings to actually come up with gross expected income.

That is if I buy Tesla and Ford for $10 each, and the Ford has no debt, and the Tesla has $10 debt, and I pay $10 because I consider them equal value... that would mean you expected total future earnings from holding each to be $10 from Ford and $20 from Tesla.
To be fair, European automotive is the most behind out of any.

I got a used one (now ~4 years old) about a year ago. I've mostly liked it.

It's true that interior quality isn't as good as traditional car makers at the same price point. The leather surfaces are kinda plastic looking. The previous owner also decided to add a bunch of fake carbon fiber to the dashboard, which looks goofy but eh. Newer models apparently look better inside.

Agreed that the exterior styling is boring. That said, I don't find any sedan made in the last 10 years is particularly good looking.

Being electric allows some features that are really nice to have. Cabin overheat prevention is a really good safety feature. It's also safe to run all the vehicle systems in an enclosed space, so you can run the heat or AC in a garage, which is great during cold/hot days.

Beyond just being electric, I'd throw in:

- The on-board software is easily the least bad of any car I've touched

- Remote control via phone is strangely nice to have

- The sedans have wagon-like cargo capacity

- I've heard service horror stories, and I don't doubt that it happens, but the two service appointments I've had were fine. For a part recall they actually came to my home and did the service on-site. For a broken sunroof (my fault) total turnaround time was about 48 hours and I could book the service directly from the app, which was cool. It's also nice you don't have to change oil or do other engine maintenance.

Sharing an SQLite database across containers is surprisingly brilliant
I don't know ReactJS so the below is just generic advice. That said there are a few solid starting options that I have used at different times in my career:

1) start with tests - reading existing tests, adding tests, fixing tests which fail etc. Any of these should really help give you some threads to unpick to get started in understanding the bigger picture. I don't think I've ever seen a dev shop where an old hand would turn down a PR review from a new engineer who was adding new test coverage.

2) start with backlog - try implement some dusty feature from the backlog that has been sitting there for a while. One place I worked I started with "Convert 100+ functions from deprecated format A to new shiney shiney format B". Another was "fix the thing which isn't compiling on new platform X". Another was "fix the millions of warnings we get when we turn warnings on". These are really unimaginably boring tasks in and of themselves, but focused me on a few different things which are useful to know early (how to push a PR, how tests work, how the build infrastructure works etc) and get you started contributing something useful right away.

3)Start with infrastructure - I like the suggestion which someone else has made of getting the app to run locally. I would extend that to fixing a piece of broken dev tooling. If you're infrastructure-minded, this can be a nice way to start and win you some goodwill with other devs.

Don't think you need to understand everything to make a big contribution though. A lot of coding isn't about being an expert it's about putting in the work. Observe code reviews, see what gets merged and in particular make sure you understand and take on board why PRs get rejected/resubmitted.

One thing to bear in mind is you're going to be a bit of a tax on your colleagues while getting up to speed. Help them (and yourself) by making your PRs shorter and simpler initially to make sure you're on track. (eg in the example above, don't do 100 functions in one pr, do one, submit it, ask for feedback, then do more).
It can cause serious issues in the future. I read that even in tiny doses radiation can cause serious diseases. I think it'a big problem. Nowadays there are huge variety of personnel monitoring devices like here https://ecotestgroup.com/ that serve to measure radiation dose which is accumulated by a user. I bought one for home use too.

I studied abroad in the US as a European and the first sentence the microeconomics professor blurts out: "Greed is good."

At that point I wasn't as gobsmacked anymore because several days before some 17 year old girl yelled in a 300 person biology lecture at the professor to stop telling lies about evolution (first week of college).

But "greed is good" struck me as an oddly American way of viewing the world. Europe isn't free of greedy people, by any means, but it's sort of not the first rule you learn in school.
Why would a training session cover something that doesn't officially exist?
>> That’s because Tesla is a tech company not a car company

The traditional car companies specialy is not cars. Its manufacturing and supply chain management.

Tesla does seem to be mastering manufacturing, and being more vertical they dont need as much supply chain handling.

They are not particularly advanced in tech from what I've seen. They do have a bunch of young motivated engineers that have a lot to learn and they can skip over a lot of things and take advantage of the supplier network providing the hard stuff.
I think you might be underestimating what these tools can do. I'm not the person you're replying to, but I have also seen a junior marketing person create a Web form to be sent to clients (using Jotform or similar), have it output to a Google sheet, have Zapier pick it up and move it to Airtable, where he defined a bunch of extra fields for internal staff to annotate the submissions, all while getting notifications when certain conditions were met.

Not only could he not learn enough python in a week to do this, but the professional developers on my team could not do this in a week.
Rutgers has a $1.5 Trillion budget?
When the article mentioned that the temperature was twice what they had expected, I wondered the exact same thing.

Could they cover the hole, pour water into it and use air pressure changes in the hole to generate electricity? There must be a way to make the hole air tight. I suspect that the rock near the bottom of the hole would already be air tight.

Also I never understood why steam engines release all the hot stream into the air? Doesn't that waste energy to let the hot steam out? Isn't it better to keep the heat trapped inside the system and generate electricity from the pressure only?
Nothing wrong with changing one’s mind. But need to be thorough enough to provide a rigorous rebuttal of the arguments made by one’s past self :-)

There was JavaOS: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JavaOS
It's really unknown at that time. If (IF) a few changes in techniques, materials and manufacturing processes align, with the climate friendly mentality, it's far from impossible that ICE will vanish fast and be replaced by EVs.

Of course these are all IFs:

- battery chemistry: change in electrolyte, if not solid state

- modular wiring (way less expensive cable to make and install)

These two are worked on as of now, if they pan out, that's another drop in price and increase in usability.

Taking in account that the amount of money flowing into EVs has most probably increase by an order of magnitude (German brands, etc, all are investing). This may very well cause an overall drop in prices in all parts. Commoditization..

Some private companies offer short discovery sessions for enthusiasts, but the few I know of do cost around 150-250 euros for an hour. This particular one was within Airbus facilities, so definitely not something accessible to the general public.

Pachyderm (YC W15) Is Hiring DevOps, JavaScript, Go Devs, and Sales
And there it is. The first assumption is that my background is in CS and not biology, that I do not understand the nature of your deeply mysterious arts. You yourself hang out on HN, I hope the irony isn't lost. This whole attitude is exactly why there is no decent seed funding for biology. Too conservative, too risk-adverse. The ivory tower knows best. The obsession with "better to die from cancer than from an untested treatment". It took decades for Right to Try to become reality and still there is tremendous opposition. Let's leave the orphan drug rent-seeking to private equity funds. Individual researchers should "know their place" and thrive only in the generosity and largesse of pharmaceutical giants. It is no wonder people are losing faith in the biological sciences. When computing is bringing breakthrough after breakthroughs, what has biology given us? Some new materials? Marginally improved treatments? How many magnitude level improvements have you seen? Where is my iPhone? Where are my VR goggles? Most if not all improvements are slow incremental gains built on the blood, sweat, and tears of poorly-paid phds who will be lucky to get paid 6 figures after graduation. It is easy to "look back on the decade" and pat yourself on the back, celebrating the oh-so-vast gains. The gains in biology hardly holds a candle to how much computing has advanced. The field of electronics has gotten cheaper than ever. Yet in biology, just how many people do you think have access to say, cryogenic electron microscopy? This isn't on Stanford light source level of difficulty, but there has been no effort at all to democratise the technology. Your ML researchers have access to ASICs for computing mere months after they get designed, both actual hardware and in the cloud. Tons of funding and development being put into improving developer user experience. Can you say the same for biology? The amount of "data processing" for a cryo microscope is trivial by modern cloud standards. Where are the Raspberry Pis, the Arduinos, of biology? Where are the cheap microscopy equipment clones? Because there is no market. There is no demand for biology.
How do you know when adding a new requirement that the forbidding of something won't cause a cascading of other requirements to conflict with each other?

In essence we are used to restricting our understanding of a piece of software through the structure and the code (and maybe some documentation). Instead this approach aims at a much more dynamic and feedback oriented view on debugging: if blocking an event causes other things to break one should be able to run tests with the new blocking module in place and figure out why things break; just like you do in normal code.

I would argue that also a small change to a strictly-structured program might cause the wreckage of other use cases.

> Extradition is prohibited by statute if:

EDIT: The UK has also denied extraction even though the death penalty is off the table. Example being Gary McKinnon. C+P from Wiki

> On 16 October 2012, then-Home Secretary Theresa May announced to the House of Commons that the extradition had been blocked, saying that:

> Mr McKinnon is accused of serious crimes. But there is also no doubt that he is seriously ill [...] He has Asperger's syndrome, and suffers from depressive illness. Mr McKinnon's extradition would give rise to such a high risk of him ending his life that a decision to extradite would be incompatible with Mr McKinnon's human rights.

Nation-states are a fairly recent invention historically speaking, and their benefits are somewhat questionable - it's entirely possible that they simply don't provide more benefits than the price of administration.

Humans lived in city-states for most of our history, I see no reason why we shouldn't expect the city-state to be resurgent in the current century.
I sold a BMW 3 series to buy a Tesla Model 3 (performance model). Overall build quality of the Tesla is good but slightly below the BMW. Little things like the sound & feel of doors closing, the way the boot lid feels when opening/closing, etc. A couple of weeks ago it froze overnight and the next morning two of the doors were a bit difficult to open because the windows got stuck (the windows lower a few mm automatically so that the doors can open).

But those little issues aside, I couldn't be happier. Interior quality is actually better than expected and I think on par with the BMW. I personally love the fact that there are hardly any switches and buttons. Just looks very clean and modern.

Handling and ride comfort is absolutely on par with the BMW.
She may have diolomatic immunity in theory (which is something that should exist and has very good reasons to), however this case shows quite clearly that there are circumstances where it is important to have exceptions. Diplomatic immunity is to protect diplomats from being influenced by their host country, this is about the death of a man and is in no way being used to influence her or her husband. The UK and US should come to some sort of compromise in this case, even if it is her standing trial remotely, via video, with the agreement that any sentence is cared out in the US.

In my experience the doors on my 2006 civic used to freeze shut all the time in UK winters (not hugely cold either: 0 to low negatives degrees-C). Also happens on my current 2010 Toyota if it gets cold enough. These have traditional door frames but the ice often builds up between the frames and seals I guess.

Bit of brute force was enough to pull them open. Windows need to be defrosted before you can open them too.
Or: it's just the only company that makes a compelling product line for the biggest global market (energy and auto) while the rest of the industry keep selling fossil fuel and internal combustion engines, both of which are destroying our habitat an ever faster pace.

This is so general and vague that it is useless, even more considering that the author has been saying the same for the last 10 years (the same timeframe her career progression stopped) and there is not a single valuable paper proposing a somewhat-valuable idea.

In fairness to the guy, he came from the Military side of the house, the program was basically ready for flight by the time he took over the CEO slot. Basically all of the fatal design decisions were made before he became CEO.

The 737 MAX was a failure of process, not by specific choices made by a leader - he was fired however for his poor response to the crashes, he committed many tactical and PR errors, which made the restoration process longer than it should have been.

If still you want to lay blame at any single persons feet, lay the blame at the feet of James McNerney, the CEO who ran Boeing while the bulk of the development of the MAX was done, he's the one who kicked the MAX program off.
Book value = assets - liabilities

Market value = market capitalization

Bondholders have claims on part of the company's assets and these claims reduce the value of the company (that's the liabilities part of the equation).

Pensioners don't have any claims on anything except perhaps on their pension funds if they have one.

This is true, but it's not trade-off free. It requires tight control over zoning and any new housing development.

It is difficult to do this type of development in the United States without a much higher degree of centralized planning and/or restrictive zoning. In the US, freedom afforded to property owners / zoning especially in more rural areas, not to mention an immense amount of open, "unused" land that makes this kind of car-centric development the norm. I imagine it's also much "cheaper" for the developer (if we ignore the cost to the commons)
