Honestly, that sounds like ripping people off to me. An important part of social mobility is being able to venture into different businesses. Experience in a subject is an advantage in many dimentions, but having to learn new things while having your suppliers exploit your inexperience sounds like an unjust burden.

Horrible things like what? Mergers and IPOs?

They're twenty-somethings who got a somewhat high-paying job coming out of college. Above average but not the pick of the litter. And they don't know what they're in for until they've already signed on the dotted line. The way you get treated as an intern is orders of magnitude better than the way you're treated as an analyst, because the bank is still trying to entice you to step through the full-time door.
Or they were melting down small candies to make one large one, a la Barry Lewis on YouTube.

Maybe they aren't worth my time. What if I am running a bootstrapped startup, and supporting small screens is the difference between being able to out-compete my competitors on features or not? Just because these tools exist does not make it zero effort.

It's a very entitled view to assume that every product has a duty to accommodate you. Yes it feels bad to be left out of something, but that doesn't mean it's owed to you.
Private custom infrastructure that can be specialized for purpose, while the ISPs maintain a monopoly and simply serve unspecialized, lowest common denominator traffic - no room for competitors to differentiate.

That is the real issue to tackle: find better ways to make meaningful competition in a region possible, that can offer genuinely different specializations (e.g. High media upload vs. Slow but regular text browsing vs. Real-time gaming).
That is super stressful to watch.
Sure, but there is no typographical convention for how to indicate that a number is following such a norm so you can never tell from the number alone.

I don't own a car, never have, never will, so take everything with you know what.

"5 year head-start."

I can't see this at work. It seems the VW ID.3 is outselling Tesla Model 3 in some markets (though we need to see when production is ramped up and pre-orders are finished delivering for real number) and looks to be nearly profitable (if you take away the dealership - which VW has hinted they want in the future - from the German car makers VW is the only one that clearly stated they want to copy Tesla by business model and software centricity).

We'll see how the ID.4 starting next week performs in the market.
I rather thought this stupid:

> We don’t know what impetus exists for developing a ciphered-additive system where the signs for 20 through 90 have their own distinct signs, and where there is a multiplier for 10 in place of a zero

Romantic languages have an obvious difference when reading the words representing them when in comes to numbers under ten, 11-15, and multiples of ten to 90. English’s 11-12 differs from other teens. 20-90 may perhaps be hybrids of words and numerals to eliminate confusion or seem more familiar to speakers.

It’s also obvious why a multiplier for 10 would replace zero, as that’s what it does.

Am I missing something here??
> The competition is coming but they will probably find it difficult to compete with Tesla on price.

There are plenty of cheaper EVs than Tesla e.g. Leaf, Zoe, Ioniq, Kona.

And there are technically better EVs than Tesla e.g. Porsche Taycan.

And you can argue there are EVs that are as good value e.g. VW ID.3/4.
In my interpretation of the initial restaurant studies, good circulation was of mixed benefit. The people in the air flow were the ones that got infected.
Also, the sherrifs are elected by the Common Hall. The Common Hall consists of the senior members of the Livery Companies which are the guilds and trade associations. So the police is exclusively elected by the businesses.

I think it’s likely that they were either independent or the Helios folks had a brief overview of Plan9.

While Helios did a lot of quite cool stuff, I don’t think it was as general as 9P. It felt like it was produced by a small number of smart people under a lot of time pressure, while Plan9 felt more like it had a more leisurely research background.

I recommend the blue book (vs the black one) for detailed documentation. That plus the book of papers from Perihelion was enough to get servers running.

It could be, but it comes from paid blood donors. It is a precious human resource regardless.

There are only a handful of countries which source their own immunoglobulin via unpaid blood donors and then create a /blood product/ (regulatory approved and marketed) for their citizens. Often, only people with specific diseases have the authorization and right to use this particular product and patients with other diseases have to use product imported that uses paid blood donors, which the public/private/national health insurance pays for likewise.

It's still a potential theory, but I really do think this Norwegian hematologist and his team know exactly what they are doing and are on the ball. Usually identifying antibodies for culprits of some previously unclassified disease is like trying to find a needle in a haystack. Sure, they had clues from the AstraZeneca vaccine, but this team is still extremely talented.

As with all high flying stocks pay close attention to R&D and stock comps. If Tesla is at the forefront of auto technology why is their R&D all but stalled? It’s laughable.
That's not their money, though. It's the money of their customers who buy their ETFs.
It does make them a biased source of information, which is the original point. Why would they ever publish a pessimistic report about Tesla and risk the stock going down even 0.005%?

The Google Maps thing isn’t entirely about screen size (though I would hope it wouldn’t be quite so bad on larger screens—but I’m only familiar with how it looks on a small-by-modern-standards Android phone, where it’s about the same as on the iPhone depicted in this article, or even a little less); it’s about the product’s overarching philosophy, which has changed over the past decade (in a direction I strongly dislike). It used to be about, y’know, maps, but maps are now incidental, a means to a different end, ably demonstrated by their icon change a year ago from a map to a location pin. It’s all about the destinations now, and mapping has progressively deteriorated and been deemphasised.

At least in the case depicted, you should be able to get it to show just the map by tapping once in the map area.

(If you’re interested in more about this, https://www.justinobeirne.com has some excellent long-form content analysing all the major maps products, how they’ve changed over time, &c. https://www.justinobeirne.com/google-maps-new-app-icon and https://www.justinobeirne.com/what-happened-to-google-maps are good brief starting points.)

Irrespective of how it will play out, I appreciate the analysis from Ark. But I wish they also accounted for "China factor". Given that China is one of the largest growth markets for Tesla and the US-China geo-political landscape is changing to be adversarial, what if China kicks out Tesla entirely? How would that impact this model?

A bit off-topic, but as the article notes, Stripe is using AWS. Could someone share their experiences with AWS versus Google Cloud for a smallish business using mostly compute plus managed Postgres? The pricing differences shouldn’t be an issue, it’s more a question of whether they make a lot of breaking changes, have too many limitations, or have a bad UI, or too much complexity.

If a company was starting fresh, which would you choose?
"they have figured out what it takes to build EVs at scale". https://www.goodcarbadcar.net/2020-us-auto-sales-figures-by-...

Tesla really doesnt produce that many cars.

IMO EV is just another car. I would argue it's probably easier to set up a supply chain/factory line for an EV than for a combustion engine. The latter is far more complex, far more moving parts.
> Quake was more of a technical marvel, but was aimed at a more alternative aesthetic that saw it use vague murky levels, Nine Inch Nails collab, and a Lovecraftian end boss.

That was pretty much the whole genre back then, which is what gave Duke 3D's level design the aforementioned "character", as it was one of the very few examples trying to depict more realistic environments vs the usual Doom mazes with very fictionalized settings/visuals.
That’s .001% of information that describes a processor. Anyway people measure it and provide it today too.
People complain about the inconveniences because small costs do build up over time, and they suspect that without pushback, they will recur or become permanent. I fully expect another Once-In-A-Century Crisis within five years, because that's how the media works.
No, it's not. If someone has no stake then they have little incentive to be right or not. And in the long term, it's better for them to try to be right because they can brag about their historical accuracy when making future predictions.

But for people that have some risk in Tesla (this firm's ETF is over 10% TSLA), then they have an incentive to pump the price up, even if it means lying. If they can pump the price they benefit. There is no reason why their advice should be trusted if their advice is toward the direction that obviously benefits them. Now, if someone had 10% of their money long TSLA and they said the price was going to fall, then I would probably trust them because that advice isn't directly benefiting them (or I'd be very suspicious that they had some other scheme going on).
This is a good point. But even if you set policies in place, those people who complain will eventually be let go and get blackballed by the rest of the industry.

In theory the end-of-year bonus is supposed to reward you for your effort. For analysts, that bonus is not entirely discretionary; there are generally three or four buckets, selected in coordination with HR, all of them meager by the industry's standards.

I love VW and I think they are going to make awesome EVs but saying the Taycan is "technically better" is an outright lie or an unfortunate ignorance.

The drivetrain in the Model 3 is vastly more efficient and elegant in design. The overall systems design is more of the same, more efficient and elegant with simplified wiring harness, less onboard computers and more sophisticated infotainment and drive computers at that.

What the Taycan does do better is feel more like a sports car, has better finishing and likely much better quality control.

But "technically" Tesla is 5-10 years ahead of everyone except maybe Lucid which have been building advanced batteries and drivetrains for Model-E for the last decade.
everything is not my fault
Yep, this is definitely an intentional design decision, it renders that way on all iPhones
All current analysis misses the point. Tesla is not just a traditional auto company. Musk is involved with Space-X, which is likely going to be the company that takes humanity interstellar. Additionally, right now there is a Tesla Roadster floating through space which will likely be picked up by aliens in future. This means Musk will probably become a Steve Jobs like deity figure among advanced alien species, allowing Tesla to export a luxury product at high margins throughout the Milky Way. Conservatively assuming only 1 in billion stars with an advanced civilisation, thats still a market of thousands of billions of high income aliens. Stop thinking about traditional metrics such as 'global market share' and then current valuations frankly look too way low.
I think that your parent is referring to the Casino de Monte-Carlo or the Vegas resort, both gambling places not unlike the stock market investments for some folks. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monte_Carlo_Casino
Important to realize it's not binary. TSLA can be a great company, remain viable for a long time, and also not have a $3T market cap in 4 years. TSLA isn't living in a vacuum, and competitors are catching up. Unfortunately/fortunately for a lot of innovators, the first one to market is not always able to corner the entire market forever.

Additionally, their current market cap is a gift and a curse. It's great they were able to raise more money using their value, but it also draws huge attention from current and possible competitors who let TSLA figure the EV market out. Now competitors can use their respective skillsets to compete where TSLA is weak.

This is all to say that competition heating up and will dampen TSLA's potential valuation. It doesn't mean TSLA is going out of business anytime soon.

EVs seem pretty simple. I would guess "almost anyone" (where anyone means "big engineering company") can build an EV drive train. ICEs seem far more complicated to me (thousands of moving parts and so on). I would not expect "almost anyone" to be able to build an ICE which can last even 100k kilometers.

DNT never worked - and never could, because it had no legal backing.

What happened was entirely predictable to anyone who understands how the market works: there were some volunteers who honored DNT while it was opt-in, but that mostly ended when one of the browsers decided to make sending DNT enabled by default.

The industry wasn't, isn't, and is never going to self-regulate itself out of a significant revenue stream. That's why we ended up with GDPR - a proper solution with legal backing - which almost works. It would be working, if EU member states were more eager to pursue violations and issue fines.

The state of payments in the US is incredibly anachronistic.
Even a developing country like Brazil is and has been for years, light-years ahead of the US on this aspect.
I do not like financing cars, my last car I just paid in full using an electronic bank transfer called TED that clears in minutes to any bank account no matter what bank in Brazil. A 35.000 dollars transaction from my phone, cleared in minutes.
Lets do a thought experiment: lets say you wanted $10,000 worth of bitcoin, and it costs an equal amount of electricity to mine. At 10c/kWh, thats 100,000kWh of electricity. There are ~720 hours in a month, so you need to be pulling 138kW 24/7 for a month to use up that much electricity. Is that realistic for a typical home? (spoiler: no)
Eh. I think 10% margins would require some monumental fuckups on Telsa's part that I don't think are on the cards. M3/MY are some of the most capital efficient vehicles to build as a result of pushing hard to make use of mega castings, vertically integrated electronics and seat production etc. (i.e little to no outsourcing, no vendor margins to pad into price).

Munroe estimated a 30%+ margin on the M3 and he was pretty anti-Tesla up until that point and had some pretty damn harsh criticisms of the MS.

I'm not long Tesla at these prices (if it was to drop to $400 I would be in again) but I wouldn't be betting on the stock price going to $60.
> the chief complaint of the analysts is less about the total hours worked than the fact that much of the grinding is not productive

It's a fair complaint. This anecdote stood out:

"VPs create shells for decks that do not align with what senior team members want to show, which results in junior teams creating the wrong materials. Ultimately, senior team members see these materials and junior team members often have to start from scratch on incredibly short timelines (less than 24 hours) – resulting in unnecessary stress, subpar work, and lack of sleep" [1]

This is a problem! Also, when I was an intern, it wasn't uncommon for an MD to have a meeting at 11AM, be back to back until 5PM, to only drop a request on the associate's desk at 6 from that morning meeting.
