> Electric cars don't need oil changes from the Chevy dealership.

The car manufactures have nothing to lose from the loss of oil changes, only the independent dealers.

> It's the end of people buying a new car because their old car won't pass emissions. It's the end of people spending $2500 to put a new transmission in their $8000 car.

Most cars are replaced because the lease was up on the old one. Even way down the line, most places don't have emissions testing for old cars: the car is replaced because the parts wear out. Ever seen a car with 250k miles on it - don't use the door handle to close it, it will just break off more, just ignore the worn spot on the seats, the AC will work for another two weeks if I recharge it - the above is real from my last car - a small number of all the little things (and it still ran great)

Transmissions are generally rebuilt by a third party.

> All they get instead are battery replacements, but the cost of a battery replacement is mostly the cost of the battery, not the labor.

NO, the cost of the battery is they have the ability to replace it. Either you replace all the individual cells (if 18650 a lot of labor - and you need a new chargers for the new chemistry), or more likely the manufacture is keeping everything around to make it even though the car it went in is out of production. Either you are paying for labor, or paying for a battery assembly process for an obsolete car. Third parties might do this for popular cars, but you never know when you buy a car if that battery platform will be used enough for someone else to start production when you need it.
No at all. There is a healthy way to be male and being a sissy man is not healthy. A culture that promotes the sissy man as normal will produce sissy men. Not only is that bad for men, but it's bad for women and for the viability of a society at all, and China does not want to replicate the failures of the West. (Mind you, the masculine man is not a brute. This is the false dichotomy that is often presented to us: either you're effeminate, or you're a toxic brute. This is extremely stupid.)

Interesting that you concede that being a "sissy man" is opposed to fecundity, though.
This was true of smart phones until Apple came along. It's still the case for non-Apple manufacturers: https://www.forbes.com/sites/johnkoetsier/2019/12/22/global-...
Non-insertable though, important distinction to make here.
That's so interesting seeing the somewhat usable language rise from the most basic elements.
It's not at all clear that society benefits from efficient markets in labor, or that efficient markets theory is something that can even be applied to labor markets in a consistent and logical manner.

Efficient markets assume an infinite amount of indistinguishable goods sold by an infinite amount of producers with only marginal costs. This theory is useful because in many situations (e.g. commodities markets) this is a reasonable approximation. That is very different from how labor markets work, even in theory. Labor is not a commodity, there are heavy fixed costs (the costs of skill acquisition), and search costs dominate labor markets.

I think your examples are a valid criticism, it's just that many of the alternatives are far worse (depending on your standpoint)

>I can't block these channels or show disinterest even though I made an account.

Yeah I think appropriate filtering options are vital for less curated platforms to be more usable. That's not an impossible problem to solve, but I would have expected better options by now.

>My issue isn't the politicalness, it's quality and relevance.

I think it's mainly a chicken and egg problem, there's not as much quality content as I'd prefer so there's less relevant quality content.

My biggest hope is that a certain threshold can be met where more quality content will be added and people aren't scared by the preexisting lower quality content that they don't want to be associated with.

There's definitely a need for there to be some competition to YouTube (Google et al.), but it's a pretty large hill to overcome to get there.

Of course YouTube still has a very strong hand in regards to monetization.

Boggles my mind that people see this as Facebook reading their encrypted messages. The person you sent the message to chose to forward the message to Facebook and are even told that this is happening when they report the message.

You can't stop someone who knows what a message says from sharing the contents of that message without physically restraining and gagging them. They can send a screenshot out, take a photo of the screen, write down the message on paper, or just memorize it and tell others.

If you want relatively equal access to education and ensure minimal gap between poorer areas and wealthier areas, then there is no alternative other than a centralized education system where tax is collected federally and funding and initiatives are driven by comprehensively studying the needs of the whole country.

Just like many other things in this country, the distributed, State/local based education system simply does not scale for the 21st century.

The reason we are wasting so much money in education is despite the total cost, due to the siloed/localized system we have, we can't effectively direct funding to places that need it most. The federal government can spend tens of millions doing some "study" in why education sucks in rural schools, but it can't use a penny of that money to actually pay salaries of teachers in rural schools. In some other countries you have national programs where they pay young teachers extra to go to less desirable areas to teach, and that's just one minor examples we can learn from.

And that's not counting the whole federal budget. Just imagine how many school districts like the one from this article we can save if we just build one less Ford class aircraft carrier.

Cars are becoming platforms for software and services, where the differentiation are those things, which Apple is good at.

Apple is so big, they have to look to giant markets to expand into.

At their scale, they should probably always 'be thinking about making a car' because the potentiality is so big, but being prudent enough to say 'no' almost all of the time. To the point that I think it's unlikely they will make one.

They partnered with Motorola just before the iPhone to dip their feet, so watch out for that one, i.e. the fully integrated Fiat, designed by Aplle or something.
Tesla is interesting because even they've described themselves as an energy company masquerading as a car company. Put another way: battery tech is Tesla's core business. They just happen to make cars as a way to sell batteries.

It's a bit like how SpaceX is set to become a major player in regional Internet delivery but you wouldn't call SpaceX an Internet or a networking company. It's just a synergy between Internet as a business and reducing launch costs while proving reliability of first-stage reuse.

I'm tempted to describe both companies as "engineering companies" more than "tech companies". I just looked at Tesla spends a relatively modest (for its size) ~$1.1B on R&D.

So what's the difference? I'd say "tech" is largely about software and "engineering" is largely about hardware. Specifically, both Tesla and SpaceX are capital-intensive businesses where that capital is being used to produce physical products.

To be clear, none of this is official in any way. This is just the framework for how I think about things.
Yeah wait till we see the price of some self driving 50kw tops ricksha size vehicle Apple will produce.
Of course it was. Most cultures, arguably. Effeminacy was rarely accepted as normal. It was generally viewed with contempt or as something inferior, even if tolerated. Widespread effeminacy did not bode well for the viability of the affected society.

I ended up on QuickBooks because my accountant insisted on it when i started my business. About ten years later i found out she's part of some kind of insider program.

Most countries don't have education quality this much tied to local property taxes. It is totally possible to increase equality for education without fully fix income/housing inequality.
My comment was not about the original article. It was directed at the comment above me which stated "There are two ends ...".
The scale is usually < 50 employees has lesser rules applied to them.
It should be, but companies, like people, aren't as rational as we'd like to believe them to be. For whatever reason there is a tendency to keep people who aren't on leadership tracks (which often means getting picked by a leader above you) where they are and with minimal pay raises. But then they hire new people at higher rates (because you have to, to get them in the door). This law makes that much harder to accomplish without creating conflict. You announce a new job paying 20% more than your current employees get in that position, they'll know they're getting screwed.

>Now major chip companies are resorting to unusual tactics. They are placing orders far in advance and prepaying so that substrate companies have ample cash to build more factories.

I've worked jobs with a healthy social culture (most people are nice & respectful) and unhealthy ones (most people are cold, calculating, and don't give a crap about you), as well as worked on things I would deem "interesting" (brain stimulating, not "fun") and "boring" (not solving problems, just doing legwork, without the creating novel solutions part, more or less). When I was younger, I worked at a carwash where the work was repetitive and mind-numbing and where the people were unkind to each other. I lasted several months until I found a better place to work for, but what I learned from that and later experiences is that I really don't want to work at a job that has a "I'm just here for the money, so why bother making friends?" type of attitude for very long.

I don't think true python "one liners" are a thing, but the awkward thing about awk is sits in this place where what you are doing is complicated enough you need awk, but simple enough you need a one liner? Those cases have been exceedingly few and far between for me enough that every time I want to reach for awk I have to go lookup how to do anything more complex than printing fields. That completely defeats the point of the quick one liner.

May as well open up vim, write my 7 lines of python, and run it. Because I use it everyday and didn't have to look anything up it ends up far faster. Then when I am done I either delete it, throw it in a scripts directory, or make it part of some existing infrastructure repo. Now if I keep it because I used python it is much more readable than the awk 1 liner would have been.

I have tried in earnest to memorize awk's idiosyncrasies multiple times now. By the time I go to use what I learned the last time it is months later and I have forgot enough I need to go look stuff up.

So in a way, here I am: The guy that writes "one liners" in python.

Tech company is a company that can sucessfully and repeatedly build product (product in IT sense). Which most companies can't even if it's a cold day in hell.
By definition, "almost all" companies are not whatever departmental adjective comes next. In business, you're defined by your differentiators, the things that make you different from all other companies. Finance, HR, legal compliance, etc. are commodities: pretty much everyone knows how to do them. The companies that are defined by those labels (Goldman Sachs for finance, for example, or Gusto & ADP for payroll) are those that know how to do them so much better that other companies would rather pay them than do it themselves.

So it is with tech. On some level all companies are tech companies in that you need a website, Intranet, database, etc. These are all commodities though. A "tech company" is one where your tech is so good that either you can offer differentiated consumer experiences that nobody else can offer (eg. YouTube, Apple, FB's various products, consumer parts of Google) or people pay you to handle the tech things for them (eg. AWS, Microsoft, Google Cloud).

Chip investment was already down-shifted in 2019 because it was a down year based on historical semiconductor cycles.

Then COVID triggered a collapse of nearly all JIT supply chains (not just medical). Try getting ANY industrial or consumer product - the supply chains are all broken right now. Some of this is China intentionally fxcking us. Some of it is over dependence on outsourcing. Most is due to inherent instability of JIT as a fundamental flaw that's long been ignored.

Many supply chains have both short and long feedback loops to themselves. For example ALL the equipment required to increase semiconductor capacity always require the very same semiconductor supply chain capacity (chip making requires chips being made).
