Why did you compare the smaller company in 1980 to the larger company in 2020? Surely if you wanted to really drive your point home, you'd do it the other way around.

The way it is, you've just made it much harder to actually compare numbers. Just accounting for inflation brings that gap down to 67B vs 17B. Still sizable, but also comparing the 50th largest company to the 100th, so...

I was curious, so I tried googling for "Two broccoli or Four broccoli" because I actually hadn't heard of it before. I didn't get any hits.

Now I'm really curious! Can you explain?
Lost interest when I read:

>The test location had a rocky desert topology with minimal foliage, and tests were conducted using LTE Band 41 (2,500 MHz).

T-Mobile/Sprint use this band. I have a lot of experience with it because I am located in a semi-rural and hilly area and I use LTE exclusively for internet access.

For B41, I have one tower that's approx 2 miles away and 600ft or so down from me in a valley, close to line-of-sight. This signal is only usable if I install an antenna outdoors or use next to a window facing the tower. My real-world speedtests are around 75mbit down, and 2mbit up on a good day. Indoors not in front of a window I cannot force any of the devices I own to connect to this band.

I'm also going to mention: Uplink/transmit power on most cellular devices is limited to 200mW (class 1) unless you use a device that supports Sprint's Class 2 High Performance User Equipment (HPUE) at 400mW or you have a router/device that does class 3 High Power User Equipment (also HPUE) at 1.25W. Only class 3 devices have a shot in hell at communicating back to this tower if there's even a small number of trees or a single wall between you and it.

Finally, this B41 TD-LTE tends to work worse the further you get outside the cell, since it relies on precise timing of all equipment inside it. Installing cell relay equipment works poorly outside of a mile or so of the transmitting antenna, again due to precise timing issues. (personal experience with a Sprint Magic Box).

Ignoring all the other social/anticompetitive issues there is with Facebook proposing this, it stinks like a scam to get a tax writeoff or jump onto the same sort of FCC rural internet grant money Starlink is bilking taxpayers out of. You can't scale a midband macro like this even using a dumb amount of spectrum. Oh totally forgot, there's an 'educational' use case for use of BRS (2500mhz) spectrum that I'll bet Facebook will also try to get their hands on.

EDIT: Note on power class, you have certify through the FCC initially to use higher classes, can't just enable it later on without recertification. Also, higher transmit power = less battery life. This is why in urban areas it usually makes more sense to use cell network to save battery (better scheduling/sleep modes, low transmit power) than it does in rural areas where the cell radio is cranked up to its limits and it makes more sense to use a low power radio like wifi broadcasting all the time.

I’ve been through this. Twice.

Once it got hostile. Allocate some money to hire a lawyer. Have your lawyer send him an email as a first step with your buy out terms. This would be skipping a step I went through which was the disagreement where we realized we weren’t good for each other in business anymore.

Not sure if he was in a position for that. It's not like tech where you can just start coding in your bedroom after work. Psychical products are header and then health permits and stuff. Unless maybe he did it at events and trade shows small scale, but by time he could scale up to be in retail he'd probably be copied anyways if trying to bootstrap. Unless he could seek investments but I guess that depends on who you know. So many business ideas die in the parking lot of a bank.

I watch Shark Tank from time to time and it seems like retail and food is one of the hardest things to get into. slotting fees and can be really low margin too.

So maybe he could of went off on his own and done it, but part of me feels like that's a all or nothing bet. I know personally starting a food brand all by myself is not something I'd even try since it seems like a losing game to me and other businesses would be more suited for me to go after.

Well, Joi Ito came forward, apologized, and showed remorse, so he got canned. Seth Lloyd came forward, apologized, and showed extreme remorse, so he got severely disciplined. All the folks who went to Epstein's island and partook of the girls didn't even get mentioned in the "Factfinding report."

The sin seems to be coming forward and apologizing.

I know I'll get down-voted for this by MIT fanbois, but if you'd like to find photos of MIT faculty on Epstein's island, you'll find at least a half-dozen on archive.org for Epstein's various charities.

MIT CSAIL shut down its mailing list because someone had the gall to raise the issue of Minsky, not so much because Minsky did anything wrong (he probably didn't), but because Minsky was conspicuously absent from Factfinding too. Have at it:

I have a lot of insider information, but I'm only mentioning things which are public record at this point. A lot of people did a lot of wrong. The only ones who were punished were the ones who came forward.

Stepping beyond public record, lots of NDAs and non-disparage agreements at MIT now... MIT is a cesspool of corruption these days. And yes, if you went to MIT and care about MIT, you should NOT be donating money. That leads to more corruption. You should be pushing for it to clean up, although it seems too late for that...

High-functioning "spectrum" people do well in software eng. because they can focus ("focus is the new IQ.")

Your notion seems to be that one couldn't possibly connect the elements of white culture that led to anti-black violence and structural discrimination with the cultural elements that drove those same white people to perform a lot of anti-Asian violence and structural discrimination. I think that's bunk. If you don't, you're welcome to try to prove it. But don't prove it to me. Prove it to the many academics who study this topic. If you convince them, I'll definitely read your book.

Is that related to a broad human tendency to xenophobia? Sure. But that xenophobia is channeled through and reinforced by cultural elements. Many societies demonstrate racism, but none of them demonstrate it exactly equally to everybody else. Like it or not, there's a history and a structure here, and I think it's worth studying.

I understand that a lot of people have the hobby of pretending racism is a much smaller problem, or perhaps no problem at all. But since those people have been consistently wrong in the US for the last couple hundred years, I don't aim to devote a lot of energy to taking them seriously.

Some years back, I was a senior software engineer and I was becoming less productive, because I was afraid I might produce code that wasn't judged as senior-software-engineer quality. My manager started to get a little concerned. One day I realized that If I just got stuff done that mattered, the judgment of other people about my code quality really wouldn't matter. Ever since then, I have just written the code I thought needed to be written, without a care about how anyone might look down on it, regardless of whether they are a higher or lower level than me. I have gotten consistently good ratings with this approach.

Later I learned about an experiment that compared different groups of photography students, and the ones that were instructed to produce more pictures without regard to quality actually produced better pictures in the end than groups who were told to produce 1 perfect picture. Produce a lot and the quality will naturally come! https://jamesclear.com/repetitions

> I know it's a difficult position to argue for practically, but I think piracy is vital to ensure the longevity of all forms of commercial art like video games, TV shows, and music.

Not at all a difficult position to argue for. This practice is called a library, and it's a very popular concept.

We've got three options to preserve human culture:

- extremely harsh copyright limits (single digit number of years, so it's still in the public conscious and can actually be found again after copyright expires)

- copyright only applying for the duration that said content is widely available (no suing someone for publishing content you don't even sell)

- refusing to abide by copyright laws (community sourced archives)

I'd be happy to go with either of the first two options, but media conglomerates aren't, so piracy it is.

I used UNIX all through the 1990s, first with AT&T UNIX, then Novell's then Solaris (both SPARC and x86).

From time to time I'd look at Linux, and was always astonished at how fast it was developing, though it was always a 'second OS' that I'd put on laptops or whatever.

Around 1997-2000, it was not much different from the Solaris I was using, but I remained with Solaris as my main OS.

In 2001, I had a problem with Solaris and my new x86 desktop machine, so I put Linux on it. I haven't used any other OS but Linux as my everyday OS since then.

I have wandered around the distros, however. Mandrake, Slackware, Debian, Mint were the main ones. If I had my druthers it would be Slackware combined with the Debian/Mint apt software package system.

I don't know why the military academies in the US and Canada combine military and education at the same time.

Why do you need the military to provide the education part? Seems like not their core competency.
Yes, those countries absolutely turned out well, but at the time it wasn't clear that communism was going to fall and that the outcome for any of those countries could be positive at all. The counter point to the countries that exited communism well are the autocratic countries like Russia, Belarus and China. Also, at the time, I can understand the extreme fear of communism that the leaders in America had at the time. It was the cold war, we know of nothing similar to the persistent existential threat of armageddon that people on both sides of the conflict experienced every day. People were scared, it seems rational that both sides pushed hard to prevail and they each tried to pick the least shitty option out of a set of shitty options.

Also, what other options did we have to help afghanis at the time? There were definitely numerous cons to supporting the taliban, but weren't they the most capable organization at waging war in the area at the time? I guess we could have tried to find more moderate opposition to the Russians but that would have come at the cost of having less capable opposition to the Russians.

I'm sure that some of our leaders, members of the CIA, and soldiers may have been corrupt and self serving in their decisions but I would argue that a majority of them were rational and honorable individuals who were doing their best to uphold the oaths they made to protect America. They were figuratively and some times literally giving their lives to something they truly believed in. It doesn't seem right to cast them all under the bus and say they were corrupt evil individuals without exercising empathy and contemplating what they knew at the time and the choices that were laid out in front of them.

> without any issue at all and become one of the most popular luxury car makers in the world.

I've followed Tesla since the Roadster days, and I lost count how many times they've almost gone Bankrupt. The only one here that is clueless is you if you think it was without 'issue.' Hell, I worked for Kimbal who is on the Board at Tesla and he openly talks about how many times Tesla almost went under in the few interviews/podcasts he's been on. What echo chamber do you live in to think there was no issue?

> This is such a clueless comment.

I've been in Motorsports with close ties to manufactures since I was 17, and then went on to work for Volkswagen Audi Group (the largest manufacture of cars by scale) and then to BMW and then back to VW because of Diesel-gate, then Nissan in various capacities from technician to supply chain. Then I tried my hand at Tesla during Model 3 ramp up and saw FIRST HAND why/how the delay in ramp was occurring in 2017 with 2 trips to the Fremont Factory before deciding to decline and focus on SpaceX instead.

What experience do you have in that Industry to call it clueless?

I know Apple cultists are as rabid as Elon worshipers, but the two combined are completely toxic.

> I doubt anyone here would say Apple couldn't make their own car, but the idea of Apple mass manufacturing a brand new car in four years is a bit crazy. In your example, Tesla took nearly a decade of focus and half a billion in capital to begin small production of the Model S.

In 3 years? A prototype to build hype and take pre-orders that still needs all the regulatory compliance to be on the road ahead of it, sure; a refined 49-1 street legal product that's mass produced with scaled production line, distribution channels and supply chain to accommodate domestic, let alone international, deliveries: HELL NO!

Money alone won't buy you that, especially if COVID is still shutting/delaying down so many factories, International supply lines and look at the distribution system Tesla had to INVENT because it refused to play by the dealership system.
