> Has any Tesla investor done the investor math justifying the price compared agaomst SP500 Index Fund for 6% total return for example.

Come on, no one does this for any stock. No stock has a value exactly in-line with math would tell you. Stocks like Amazon have been completely overvalued (as compared to what math tells you) for close to 20 years.
If you haven't yet learned that stock markets are based more around hype and emotions than math, don't invest.

Cool. This is quite usable and seems really handy—it's really fast compared to some heavier online repls. (definitely a use case for me)

How is it set up? I was definitely able to crash an instance I was in as well as read from root, but seemed all it took was a reload of the page and it snapped right back in without any real startup wait.

ARR most commonly refers to recurring revenues, especially in the context of premium valuation multiples on revenue. Annual run rate is usually used for small businesses trying to extrapolate out a monthly revenue number. For quarterly publicly traded 10Q numbers, most analysts just say "annualized". But, that's all semantics.

Also, 10x sales is out of line for big tech companies. Most are more like 5-7x. True, a little higher than Tesla's 4x, but their economics are very dissimilar. Apple, which is typically trotted out as a "manufacturer", actually offloads all the lower margin manufacturing to other companies, and their margins show it.

> hosting your own Postgres service is a huge project

Yes, you’re right. We will only do it if it looks like our potential customers are leaving because they don’t know how to do it themselves. Even then, we will just wrap an existing managed service to start with. We’d like to make Postgres as simple to use as Firebase (for newbie database users)
You forgot one step: wait till a market crash and use your available liquidity to further dominate market.
If you're investing with a 5 year time horizon, sure. If you're investing with a 20-30 year time horizon, and you're convinced that Tesla is overvalued, you should absolutely short it. Whatever "reality distortion" you are suspecting, is not going to last for 20 years. Eventually, when the promised profits and growth fail to materialize, the stock price will drop back down to its fundamentals and you will make a killing (if you're right)

Every time this discussion happens, people trot out the quote about markets staying irrational longer than you staying solvent. This quote is only ever relevant if you're leveraged, or if you're at risk of someone else forcing you to exit your short position. If you're an individual investor with a 20 year time horizon, shorting a stock with less than 5% of your portfolio, you don't have to worry about either. You absolutely can stay solvent longer than the market can stay irrational.

The real reason people don't go shorting TSLA nearly as much as you would think, is because Tesla's future isn't nearly close to a foregone conclusion. It's a lot more fun to make bold predictions with absolute confidence when you don't have anything to lose.

More broadly it just has so many rough edges and unfinished things. You can now do audit logging but you can't set an audit configuration so it logs everything (I think we had 200k events a day on a tiny cluster). You can tie service accounts to IAM roles but only if you cluster was created or upgraded after a certain date. You can't change or add subnets to the cluster without recreating it. Can't back a cluster or restore a cluster. Private load balancers require a non-standard configuration. EKS is still on 1.14 even though 1.17 is already out. The list goes on.

> When will it finally crash? Housing prices has reached a level of nonsense again.

Well, it is obvious when it will crash. It will crash when it becomes less worth it for people to pay those prices.

When other cities become hot-spots of high-paying jobs, people will leave San Francisco for those jobs and the price of housing will decline.
Monopoly Power and the Malfunctioning American Economy
I don't know enough about SNES hardware or the level of in system debug, but could one generate a hardware test jig that was able to record player traces that could be re-run in the emulator and have the screen grabs compared? Given the system state, random number generator and the series of up/down/a/b one should be able to recreate the same game evolution and video output from the emulator?

Then you can form a reference set of captures, real hardware and the emulator. Screen to screen emulation with diffs could then be an accurate tool to measure against actual hardware and the accuracy gap between the two. No? Controlling the random number generator sounds like it might be key. And some player traces might be really fragile in the input timing search space.
That would be silly/stupid. But then again, that seems to be the standard for environmental reporting these days. The most catastrophic-sounding headline gets the most clicks.
But even non OTA cars with lane assist and such have this same threat vector. If attacker compromise the vehicle code supply chain to introduce such a thing, whether it got loaded via OTA update or flashed by dealer when I took it in for service makes no major difference. If anything, it's more likely that OTA updates mean they can remediate REAL bugs that save lives across a vast majority of cars in record time (vs recalls and in person flashing).
Most ICE dealers have a high-dollar repair shop as part of the facility. Yes, the incentives do not work out in the buyer's favor: complex high-maintenance parts ensure the cars don't last all that long without pricy repairs, and parts obsolescence assures cars aren't maintained much past 200K miles[0].

In contrast, Tesla's low-maintenance high-mileage design means Tesla need not worry much about parts & repair at all, and focus on simply selling new cars. People will get rid of cars not so much because of repair issues, but because they're bored of it after 1-2 decades.

[0] - I'm now suffering from inability to find a replacement computer for my SUV. Car is mostly fine, but extreme limited availability of even used components means it has been in the shop for over a month, and may have to be sold for parts for want of one.
I think the Fukashima plant didn't help selling nuclear power to governments. Japan is very much a leading 1st world nation however the fact that something like that happened really cause a major local environmental issue. The worst part for Japan was that they have a significant chunk of land that is unlivable now. Land is worth more than money in Japan just because of how little of it there is. So not only did they have to deal with the economic issue surrounding a nuclear meltdown, but they also lost a vital resource.

I don't think this is true?

As far as I can tell, there is no reason for housing prices to increase on their own. I suppose you can make the argument for increased population growth but we haven't reached the point where this is a problem, at least in the US.

On the other hand, businesses exist for the sole purpose of making money. Literally everyone in the company is (supposed to be) working towards the goal of increasing profits.
When half the nations market cap and everyone's pension funds are wrapped up in it, it won't be allowed to implode.

As a driver, I would rather have larger crumple zones or places to put curtain airbags and such than space to be able to fit a full size dog in the back. Regulations aren't always bad or a burden on the industry (or for that matter on the dog owners).

It's pretty interesting to think about happens from an economic perspective. Say I buy a house on loan (money withdrawn from capital markets). I hand cash to the previous owner and they use it to pay back their loan (return money back to the capital markets, keep the difference).

Consider the synchronous chain.
Me: Myprofit=future_profit-cost1
Prev owner: profit=cost1-cost2
Prev owner 2: profit=cost2-cost3
And so on...

Also consider a parallel behavior where I can simultaneously buy and sell multiple properties though debt.

It would be fun to model this whole chain and understand what this recursively unfolding process actually does with capital. Is it a capital sync? What behavior does it incentivize? Does it guarantee expansion/recession cycles?
It's really difficult to describe. The feeling of driving it is like the first time I rode my motorcycle on the highway. It was fear and excitement. The acceleration is unbelievable. It also has great visibility, much better than a lot of other sedans. With a family, I'm the designated driver, the car is incredibly quite. I can have a normal conversation with my daughter without her shouting. The list goes on. I honestly didn't think I would like the Tesla. But now my next car will be Tesla or a van.

I don’t follow. Why must people think that Tesla will be worth 10 times its current value? The pro-Tesla argument I’ve typically seen is that they’ve already demonstrated they’re better than other manufacturers and it’s just a matter of cleaning up their production pipeline. Have you seen anyone in particular argue that Tesla will be valued at $1T in 2030?

That has nothing to do with housing or school buildings and everything to do with teacher funding. A classroom with 30 kids can have 3 teachers if the district chooses, with no impact on housing issues.
Yes, an advantage of Elebase is you can model your data using the UI and access that data via an API without having to build it yourself. How you use the data is completely up to you in your front end logic.

It is like a headless CMS in the sense that there is an out-of-the-box data management interface, but the concept of "page" is only one you need to use if that is appropriate for your application. In many senses, a "page" doesn't make sense for your application, so it isn't forced on you. That is a bit of the weakness of traditional CMS -- it is designed around the concept of a webpage, which is still very valid, but also a structure that is sorta 1990s, early 2000s. Does a 'watch' application have pages?
Don't the kids seats face backwards?
Yeah this is a big one. You have to buy specialty car seats now if you want to go three across in a sedan. Admittedly, the seats are much safer (just like the wider cars), but it certainly is a problem.
i got extremely lucky buying my first house right in the middle of that recession. paid 101k , got it appraised last year at 190k and the area has gone up since. my second house where i'm at now was right when the prices started going up so a bit more but less wife. i owe alot to that recession.
Yeah, so by eliminating semantic concerns, pdf has achieved transcendence as a document format.

But by its nature text is intrinsically semantic. I am just surprised that a document format utterly free of semantics has lasted so long. Perhaps because we (as people and organizations) can't agree on the structure of documents?

Another way to see this, perhaps, is as the failure of the promise of xml and the ecosystem around it? In the late 90's many of us thought that all documents would be xml for content and styling would be through xslt or even it's big sister, xsl. Well, THAT went nowhere despite all the W3C meetings and papers.

It's interesting you brought up graphics as an analogy. It's true that you can have graphics which are literally just lines and that's adequate for many needs. However, modern CAD drawing systems increasingly use notions of 2D/3D objects and a disciplined series of transformations. They call it "parametric modeling" and it's where where all drawing consist of a series of transformations that can be represented in a timeline. I suspect modern parametric model CAD can very much be semantic.

Yes, repair still needs sorting out.

HOWEVER, other manufacturers build for repairs: there are high-cost repair services provided at every dealership. Yes you can get a car fixed, but that's because it's built to need fixing often & terminally.

MATH CONCENTRATORS' SEMINAR David Kelly

The seminar provides an opportunity for students to get to know each other and gain exposure to many active areas of mathematics. This class will meet once a week for two hours.
Of course. That is the correct response once the attack is known. To most people, unencrypted traffic vs encrypted traffic seems like an obvious security oversight, but many others exist that are not so stark and obvious sounding.

My point is that all indications point to Google being unbelievably cooperative with the US Government, essentially allowing whatever legal or extralegal (per Snowden) back doors were requested.

It is not much of a leap to conclude that Google was both aware and cooperative with the harvesting of unencrypted traffic. This does not mean that all employees were aware of it.

The analysis should be to discover how few employees would have had to be complicit for the attack to be carried out successfully.

There is no way that such an attack would succeed if too many were aware, since it is obviously in the extralegal (Snowden revelation) category, and since most Google employees are ethical humans, it would have provoked outrage if widely known.
I try to only bookmark things that a) I visit repeatedly (multiple times per day), b) are not available from the "landing page" (filtered views, sub pages, complicated urls... anything that takes more than one click to get to), and c) are not easily memorized.

Everything else just gets googled.

You must be young. After 20 years, I don't even put those early jobs on my resume. If I even add them at all, it's a one line, name of company + role and some rough dates. Nobody cares. I don't put education or graduation date on the resume anymore, either. Nobody cares. If they care they will ask me.

This kind of stuff only matters like 1-2 years after you graduate. After that, like GPA, nobody gives a shit.

Some of the shitty jobs I had that I quit and didn't go back to work right away, nobody cares about months long gaps. I even completely erased one job I had for 18 months that was just a total shit company and shitty people whom I wanted no further association with. Never been asked about it even once.
