I can't tell if you're serious or trolling. Ford sold close to a million F-150s alone in 2019 (the best-selling vehicle in America), with the F-series line doing $42 billion in revenue on its own. The domestic auto industry is very much a real business with real revenue and real profitability.

I agree this could be easily understood as a result of some internal talks where they switched platforms and he got a report saying "We don't need to rewrite the infotainment system, it's mostly HTML5, so we're all good even after we switched from X to the customised ARM foo". It's still stupid, but doesn't mean he's actively lying here.
Self-driving first for sure, since cold fusion isn't thought to even be theoretically possible, and I think self-driving is likely to arrive sometime before "never," even if it's a long time from now. With the uptick in funding for vanilla/hot fusion, though, self-driving vs. hot fusion (Q>1) is actually a legitimately interesting question, I think. I'd probably still bet on self-driving, I guess? But I'd be less confident (and I don't think either is soon).
But we're not talking about "social media" in broad terms, we're talking specifically about Facebook's pivot towards smaller community and group building, per:

> The strategy that Facebook has been pivoting towards is in favor of smaller community building, rather than the "mass market square" approach, which is why:

It's great that people have the ability to form groups with like-minded people, that's how the Internet worked before Facebook, and it sounds like there's some reversion to that.

The fact that it can also be used by "fringe groups", is just another way of saying "I don't want normal people to have nice things because people I don't like also have those nice things", but the world has always worked that way (see: Nazis and the radio). Bad people have existed for forever, and it's up to the laws we make that protect life & liberty to ensure that their impact on the world is limited, not limiting our our communication tools and hope that by 2nd order effect we prevent the people we don't like from having a voice (which is itself pretty dystopian).

> Hindenburgresearch is a known short-seller and so has an self interest to drive down the stock price of Nikola.

Short sellers don’t really have an interest to lie though. If it doesn’t look like there is really a fire, it’s much better to close the position and hunt for a new target rather than trying to make it seem like a problem when there isn’t. Lies don’t help short sellers because they present a legal risk and a financial risk (the market steam rolling them as they are seen through).
It's not the same: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hx7BXih7zx8

You can watch that talk and see the approach they're taking. Maybe you're more skeptical than they are about the near term possibility, but you can see that the work and progress is real.

The AGI risk is real too.

I got the HW3 hardware update in my MX a few weeks ago - and from what my car has demonstrated to me what it’s capable of - I sincerely believe Tesla will have driveway-to-driveway autonomy for simpler scenarios (e.g. suburbia and semi-rural areas, with clear road-markings) within two years.

I appreciate that what I just said comes with a huge caveat - and that probably 80% of the work will be hammering-down everything else - but consider that Google’s Waymo is already well-past that already.

Satellite Video Showing Movement of Smoke from Wildfires
I have an ASUS G14 with an R7 4800HS and while nine hours are possible (at ~100% it shows exactly 10 hours), you'd have to set the brightness to a pretty low level and forget about doing anything challenging.

But six hours with your IDE open, brightness at the default level for battery mode and compiling a Node.js + TypeScript project from time to time is something you can reasonably expect to be able to do.

Currently, even though I have my charging set to max out at 80%, I don't look at the charge indicator too often because I know that I have a good few hours before it's time to plug in.
Asus PN50. On pre-order (early oct) but I gather the Aussies already got theirs. If you do go that route google RAM carefully...there seem to be compatibility issues (JEDEC vs XMP).

Also, I think the Ryzen 5 is probably better value ratio but wasn't available for buy so went for a 7.

I believe Asrock is also gonna bring out similar stuff but don't know details.

Maybe a mention of other, non-ethernet, links. Serial PPP? Frame Relay? I realize these are mostly historical curiosities these days, but it might help to enforce the differences between L2 and L3.

When I first started working with routers, over 25 years ago, it was all ethernet LAN to serial WAN, usually point-to-point T1 or frame relay. On site had a dual T1, load balanced on both ports of a Cisco 2501. Fun times.

> when performance matters, these details about using such a null representation and what different representations lend themselves also tends to matter. vs. gluing libraries to libraries willy-nilly

Well, Lua juuuust about hits the sweet spot of a good ‘layman’ dynamic language with great performance, and my hope is that perhaps it could be moved a bit to the generic-scripting-language side without losing performance. Basically, since libraries invent magic values to use instead of null, presumably Lua could provide such a value for them all to agree on.

> for JSON, the impedance mismatch with Lua tables puts it in this weird uncanny valley

Not seeing the mismatch here: to my knowledge, tables can be employed as (untyped) arrays or dictionaries, exactly the structures in JSON—and what I've long been using in PHP, JS and Python. If I'm not forgetting something, null is the only thing missing from making this triumvirate an integrated quartet.

> Tbh my fav method of using JSON is to not have an in memory document format at all and just treat it as reader / writer objects directly into domain data so that you don't keep paying this intermediate representation conversion cost

As we're discussing this on a post about a Lispy thing, I personally can't back your approach, for I'm lately buying into functional transformations big-time. Here I'm more on the convenience side: it seems to work fast enough for interactive desktop cases, though I've heard that the in-place method works wonders for busy web apps. In fact, afaik some high-level languages/environments kinda do the in-place thing implicitly by not copying strings between structures or when extracting substrings, and possibly by doing COW. Dunno if Lua does any of that (afaik it copies pointers between structures, not the data—this behavior is pretty much expected of runtimes these days).

However, I occasionally do wish that Clojure-style lazy structures were more widely employed, so I could use transformations without worrying that they might crunch some stuff needlessly.

It's more of a reputation hit than anything. If this turns out to be as bad as these short sellers are saying, then anybody who really associated with Nikola is going to look really bad in the eyes of consumers.
I think there's a difference between saying "Here is a demo of some tech on a pig that, some day, could treat depression in humans" and "We have treated depression and cured it, as you can see from this demo. Also, this is not a pig, it is a human."

Elon loves the former. Trevor appears to love the latter.

Musk has history of building and shipping products, yes.

But he's also no stranger to fraud, lies and defrauding investors. Solar roof is best example of that ([1] and [2] talk about it, but there's more stories about it).

Solar roof was 100% fake product, that was shown only to justify fraudulently bailing out his other insolvent business. Years later, Tesla still doesn't have solar roof product (they do some solar roof installation, of roof made by Changzhou Almaden, Chinese company [3]).

Judging who the slacker is by estimates is wrong, period.

There's a habit of technical folks to come to conclusions they shouldn't, and this is a perfect example. It generally manifests itself in interviews where the technical interviewer will come to conclusions that don't necessarily follow, only in this case it's not in an interview, but with respect to fellow co-workers.

I mean, you can see the hubris in the poster, who would have you believe that they're somehow "training" their management to "spot poor co-workers". Yeah, ok.... sure you are. Because managers are like monkeys apparently?
This is not even that. The parent is talking about the case where the stock does indeed go to zero and get de-listed from the exchange, in other words the market becomes rational. At that point, you're holding put options that are ridiculously in-the-money, but you can't execute or sell them to take your profit because the underlying stock is gone. So, your highly valuable stash of Nikola puts becomes worthless ...

Comprehension follows perception
Musk said the first passengers could go to Mars in 2024, which is 4 years from now. So I’m being generous. Hasn’t he repeatedly proved everyone wrong? Where does the quote “Never bet against Elon” come from? I’m being quite bold.

But you’re right on the other points —- I’m willing to extend the timeframe for self driving to 10 years and transhumanism to 20. And to be even bolder, I’ll let you pick a timeline for the Hyperloop.
It's not possible to respect it, really.

Put a nominally 12pt font on your screen. Now plugin a monitor with 2x the resolution. Now plugin in a projector with 4x the surface area, but the same resolution.

Drag the window around. What happens?

Yes, in highly defined scenarios, where you know for certain the number of pixels per inch and you know it doesn't change, you can generate as 12pt font that is actually 1/6th of an inch high.

Most of the time, software doesn't find itself in these situations.
It is still worse than it was. Yesterday I got local mail that was mailed a week ago and most of the time my mailbox is empty.

Their Informed Delivery service (where I can see what mail is being delivered to me) now says my address is not covered, when it worked for me 2 months ago (not sure when it was disabled, since recently I started worrying about lost mail).

Before it all started, USPS actually operated really well, there were times I got packages faster than through UPS (don't really use FedEx). Actually you can see that from your site they were on average 2 days, when typically everyone was expecting 3 days.

Musk has been really bullish on AI. In 2015, he seemed pretty sure we’d have super intelligent AI in 5 years (ie now), and he worried about it which is why he started Neuralink. So he probably was hoping for transhumanism by 2021. That’s why I discount those who think Musk was scamming about self-driving being available soon. He was naive and he tricked himself. Don’t believe his time projections about anything like AI.

Doesn’t mean those goals won’t be achieved, even if they are late, tho.

As for court cases which recognized freedom of expression in public schools, did any of them do so at the expense of the health of the students, teachers, or the community?

Because Nikola has been excellent at selling their story to a broad set of people using social media and youtube. And many of these don't follow reports like this, plus the anti-short backlash from the hardcore fans and investors is strong with reports like this.

They are 'the next Tesla' but 'better' because they use 'hydrogen'. And every 'blogboy' knows that hydrogen is the real technology of the future. So when a untypical CEO from a Tesla like company makes big claims and has amazing presentation and videos to back it up, many buy it.

Nikola did clever things like suing Tesla over their truck design, to get massive exposure threw the Tesla hype machine with the moto bad publicity is publicity. They consistently try to get into all the Tesla and EV influences and made it a point of trying to get them onboard. Trever Milon often competing on Tesla, comparing themselves to Tesla and so on.

He literally says things like 'There are few people who can out-Elon Elon but I'm one of them'. That sort of talk sells well.

Nikola for 4 years consistently trying to insert itself into the conversation and that has really payed of for them. They have never done anything but get mentioned right along companies established car makers. In reality Nikola is far less of a company then Rivian, but much better known.

The golden rule of estimation is to give a 1-10 confidence level and if your confidence level is below a threshold (7-8 for example) then also define the risks. Finally, use that analysis to give a reasonable upper and lower bound (or be honest and say "I don't know).
I still believe that EDN[0] is one of the best general purpose data serialization formats - definitely a huge upgrade from JSON.

It addresses most of the authors problems while _also having s-expressions_, e.g.:

(foo bar baz) ;; this is valid EDN

{:foo [bar baz]} ;; this is also valid EDN

There are parsers for many popular languages, and a language already entirely based on it: Clojure.

The only difference between Jack Ma and Elon in that interview is that Elon's bullshit sounds smart to us and Jack's doesn't.

What's "reality"? P/E need not have anything to do with NPV, which is the key.

Suppose that I'll charge you $1000 today and next year and then give you $1000/year "forever". The P/E analog this year and next is horrible, but that's a great investment (for you - it's lousy deal for me).

My point is that P/E is only useful when a company is roughly stable now and into the future. If it isn't, P/E is a lousy predictor of NPV.
Honestly it's testament to the people in Musk's inner circle and his engineering departments more than the man himself. I'd say he is really good at associating with clever people and organizing collaborations. At the end of the day, he is a billionaire who makes headlines because of the irony of the fact that he probably has ADHD and trolls on twitter and seemingly doesn't care about his reputation, while also heading all these companies. He's a loudmouth cowboy, which is like the archetype American hero.

Some people are attracted to rich arrogance more than anything. It's why people pay money to read fluff piece autobiographies ghostwritten for billionaires. It's why people like martin shkreli still have strong fanbases on the internet. Tesla may be a good company, but good companies are not built by one person, and fanboys are usually blind to that fact.
In my experience programmers are very friendly and kind and are always eager to help everybody understand what they do understand about programming.

In contrast with that, people from the "networking" world often look with despise to people who don't understand what they do and want to prevent them from learning, they love to just say what is wrong and never point to what would be right and why, they also will most of the times just keep saying they must hire someone to do the job instead of learning.

That is my experience on Networking Stack Exchange, on ##networking channel on Freenode and also the impression I have from a friend that deals with networking, although I try to not talk about it with him for the reasons above.
Impressive, sure. But curious what makes it scary to you?
