Right right, "they're leaving", exactly who is they and how mow many is that?

> Tesla revealed in its 10-K filing with the SEC that it employed 99,290 employees as of December 31, 2021. This is a substantial increase from how many people the company had employed at the end of 2020. Tesla reported an employee headcount of 70,757 people at the end of 2020.

Also, it's often that those who leave, should leave, as there is a mismatch.

To generalize and extrapolate a minority percentage of misfits that you clearly are focusing on is quite the error.

Let's see Tesla's growth year over year:

Tesla revenue for the quarter ending June 30, 2022 was $16.934B, a 41.61% increase year-over-year.
Tesla revenue for the twelve months ending June 30, 2022 was $67.166B, a 60.45% increase year-over-year.
Tesla annual revenue for 2021 was $53.823B, a 70.67% increase from 2020.
Tesla annual revenue for 2020 was $31.536B, a 28.31% increase from 2019.
Tesla annual revenue for 2019 was $24.578B, a 14.52% increase from 2018.

> So Google understood my search query perfectly fine, but still chose to ignore what I asked for, and then makes me jump through additional hoops to get my initial question answered?

Google's catering to the common audience, so yes basically. The hoops are for people who know what they're doing, which is annoying but understandable.
Vertical power delivery involves putting the voltage regulators on the opposite side of the circuit board of the chip, so that high-current power supplies travel a minimum distance. This reduces both resistance and inductance of the paths that power takes to the transistors, which means significantly less loss. That, in turn, means less heat related to those losses and less infrastructure to prevent those losses (fewer bypass capacitors, etc), so more of the thermal and area budgets can go to compute.
Are you sure it's going to be like Venus? Didn't all the carbon used to be in the atmosphere in earlier points in history?
> The revenue-sharing deals that Google offers to browsers are essential to companies like Mozilla Corp., he said, because they offer their products to users for free.

Mozilla would disappear overnight if Google stopped paying them.

Good riddance IMO (even though I love FF and it's the only browser I use). They haven't been able to build a sustainable business despite receiving hundreds of millions of dollars per year from Google. A flower shop on a street corner can get a better ROI. Mozilla's management is incompetent and shady.
Most solar panels are net negative as far as energy goes, that is to say it takes more energy to create them than the panel produces over its effective lifetime. But, yeah at least it was bootstrapped, right?
Most people would pick Google if there was no default option.

Most people don’t change the default option though. If Google didn’t (or couldn’t by law) pay such large sums, someone else (e.g. Bing) would pay a bit less and become the default. Even though most people prefer Google over Bing, there is still a significant incumbent advantage for being the default option.

>If a customer doesn’t like that then an off the shelf product is the worst choice they can make unless they are prepared to hire a significant in house dev team

Correct. This is the problem my company solves. We are ERP consultants/dev's who also know web development. Through the years we've made 50+ web apps to extend Microsoft's ERP, most of which can be used in most companies with similar needs with slight modifications.

And, of course you don't blindly follow a process. There's always some improvements to be made to the process before developing an app for it.

EDIT:
Drastically changing workflows for employees within huge companies will ultimately almost always cost you more... It all depends on the company of course, but we have to generalize a bit.
I guarantee the CTO has a much more realistic view of these projects and understands how hard it is to deliver these things successfully than the average engineer. There's a metric ton of complexity and their jobs depends much more on their ability to deliver the project at a whole without knowing all the details.

The fact is the higher you go the concerns separate. I think the army motto was "go 2 levels up". You're a grunt, you need to know what your platoon and your company are up too and what the goals are so that if you can't follow the plan directly, you can still hit the objective. This is good because no plan army or business, survives reality without changing.

In the same way, you can only go so many levels down.
What I don't really understand here is in what sense you're suggesting a new currency. It seems that you're suggesting that the central bank replace Visa and Mastercard. But those don't have their own currency either.

It's pumped into greenhouses because they have to be sealed to prevent heat from escaping. In nature plants aren't CO2 limited, typically they are either nutrient, light, or usually water limited; and the warming planet is exacerbating water distribution issues. Increasing CO2 does little to increase plant growth because the bottleneck is elsewhere.

Well people are waking up, and then we will hopefully have some figurehead that mobilises the wider public. I do not care if it's a majority (I am not a fan of democracy), but if it's enough to overpower the rest then that's hopefully enough. Clearly, capitalism is not an eternal fact of nature, it will eventually die
Shipping is actually one of those cases, well logistics in general, where SAP actually isn't that good. Still usable if those are supporting functions, if thosr domains are your core business I'd use something different. If you are creating a production company some lite version SAP, there was one back the day that was light and easy (for ERP standards), wouldn't be the worst choice long term.

A common argument from climate change deniers is that the planet was warmer before and things were fine then. So I guess the comment plays into that, as the changes we are facing might not be new for Earth, but they are new for a Earth with humans.

What gives you that kind of optimism?

Not a thing.

Incredibly dubious

Not when people like you pop up to spout strawmen counter arguments at every point.
Exactly. If your company tells you to RTO, it’s not like “yeah, but the guy was CEO at the time said in an interview N years ago that XYZ, so ‘haha, nope!’” is going to get you an exception.
> I would argue that yes it can be done outside of a platform like this, but each time you want to implement a new policy you need to talk to all private actors and force them to implement your policy.

And you know what, many jurisdictions have done exactly that, and brought massive improvements to their banking infrastructure in the last decades. Private actors either comply or lose their banking/credit/payment licenses, it's as simple as that.
Possibly the same reason there's an overlap of queer people and furries: motivation to learn, a need for well-paid work to get out of hostile families and geographies, a need for an accepting community while you're working toward getting out.

Did I need to spell out more explicitly the connection between social credit scores and China implements them and ESG scores that have been brought to the rest of the world, and that maybe having digital, government managed currencies will allow our own western governments to follow the China experiment?

Thanks for nitpicking a loose use of the term ESG, and then dismissing everything else with the categorical label of right wing echo chamber nonsense.

I didn't get these ideas from a far right echo chamber either.
The following paper comes from an advocate of banning cryptocurrency, and replacing it with federal coins, that can then manage monetary policy way more precisely than the current system we have. Part of that policy would be the ability to literally reduce people's ledgers as a form of inflation control. Oh, and the author was going to be tapped as a wall street regulator, but barely missed confirmation. While she didn't make the cut, seems like her ideas did.

Even the conversion of all known organic carbon [0] on Earth into CO2 isn't going to be close to Venus.

Sun expanding over the next billion years might just about do that, unless the water vapour dissociates and the hydrogen escapes, but that's about the only way we get even close to Venusian conditions, IIRC.

[0] as in, the biomass and all of the fossil fuel reserves; I'm not including carbonate rocks, though it looks like including inorganic minerals still wouldn't be Venusian even though it would be far enough from today that it might as well be as far as "life" was concerned.

There's an interesting movie called Don't Look Up[0] which is a metaphor for climate change politics.

> The impact event is an allegory for climate change, and the film is a satire of government, political, celebrity, and media indifference to the climate crisis.[6][7]

After watching, I agreed that when the world eventually burns, people will be live streaming and tweeting about it instead of going out and actually doing something about it. We all have a part to play in this, and armchair activism behind the comfort of social media will do jack shit to solve this problem. Addressing climate change head on will be the biggest amount of cooperation humanity will ever have to do. After we address it, it will not be as hard to maintain decent temps. We can sail on this rock for millennia once we get out there and make shit happen.

Funny you say so Robert. Currently living in Zurich and definately planning to move to Utrecht.

It certainly won't be too hot in 30 years. And sea level rise shouldn't be problematic yet this century.
The premise of the Green New Deal is that the solution to climate change just happens to be the same things democratic socialists have wanted the whole time. Isn’t that a coincidence.
It is מתבל עגבניות instead of קטשופ.

I'd translate it as "Tomato Dip", though strictly speaking that may be an inaccruate translation. A "dip" in Hebrew should be מטבל since ט.ב.ל. is a root that means "to dip" so מטבל would be a "thing" for dipping. Heinz's sauce however is מתבל which is a homonym but has a different root ת.ב.ל. which that relates to spices. Strictly speaking that isn't an official word then, but you can understand they are evoking both "Dip" and "Spice" with their chosen "word".

IIRC while the labeling in Hebrew uses that word, the bottles still have their original labels in English (on the other side of the bottle) saying "Ketchup", making the whole affair extra stupid.
I would disagree that the UX is horrible.

It definitively is neither pretty, discoverable nor intuitive, but in the hands of experienced power users (who have spent a lot of time learning the UI), it works really well. I have seen people (who have used the system probably for > 10 years) dig the most arcane information out in seconds, navigating through about ten different views without ever touching a mouse.

It's a UI from another era, but if you take the time to learn it properly, it can be very efficient.
People go nuts about curl | bash but then grab random packages off pip/gem/npm/brew/VimPlug/packages.el/VS Code without so much as a second look and they can all run arbitrary code too.
>I feel there is a lot of room to develop better tools that are not so horrid

It seems like it, but I don't think it is possible. Sure you can clean up SAP itself a bit, but most of the problem is custom UIs that companies develop only to the point where they are useful, but then they decide it is cheaper to train people on how to use the clumsy UI they have instead of paying developers to clean it up. They probably are not long, it only takes a few minutes to train most people on the how to find the few things they actually need, and the slow workflow costs them a couple hours per person per year (and most of them are low wage employees), while cleaning up the UI would costs several man-years of programmer effort.
The people benefiting from the status quo is most of us. When I fly somewhere for vacation, it's terrible for the planet but it's great for me.
IIRC (sorry, no sources) there is no real "lag" or "inertia" in climate. It has been demonstrated that if we stopped any emission right now, the climate would rapidly stabilize to its current state (in a couple of years).

However, and maybe it's worse, human civilizations do have huge inertia when it comes to changing our way of doing things. I have no doubt that someday in the future, we will be a zero emission species. But I'm really unsure it will be soon enough.
Well it depends. Certainly eveybody having accounts at the central bank is one way to do things. They could also do something more akin to cryptocurrency, rather than traditional accounts. Honestly I half expect that.

There has also been talk of this being an offering of retail banks in the US. In order to be truly cash-like these would be quite different from normal bank accounts. Under this approach these accounts would not be eligible for many normal banking services, because people who the banks would not normally deal with (due to terrible credit, or previous bank fraud) would need to be able to get an account. Currently the banking system actually extends credit to most people with normal accounts, since people expect to be able to the money transferred to them in a reasonable amount of time, rather than needing to wait for a transaction to become non-reversal which can take a really long time.

To be truly cash-like There would need to be a rapid non-reversible transaction mechanism. If transactions could be reversed for things like fraud, then it is not really cash-like, but more like one of the various forms of traditional banking. But of course, this makes it riskier for most consumers, to the point where organizations would be discouraging people from using it if they have any choice. If you have recently tried to do a wire transfer as an individual (perhaps as part of buying a house) both the bank and the receiving party make you jump through hoops, and want you to triple verify the number, and the bank will probably ask you to explain the transaction. Largely all of this is to protect you, as there are plenty of scammers who will send fake account numbers, plus plenty of headaches that can occur if the account numbers are off by even one digit.

And wire transfers are not actually fully non-reversible! Admittedly, banks will be reluctant to even try to reverse them unless: the bank messed up (sent the wrong amount, entered a different number than you told them, etc), the receiving party confirms the reversal (like might happen if an honest person receives a wire meant for someone else, Letting the initiating bank reverse it is safer than sending it back), or you can demonstrate that you did not authorize the transfer in the first place.

And this is not even considering the privacy concerns, since unlike paying by cash, law enforcement will likely be able to trace any transactions done with the CBDC, much like it is possible for them to trace credit card transactions. After all, I strongly doubt any such current will have the privacy protections of something like monero, even if it is crypto based.
Like you are five: The main driver inevitably boils down to governments wanting you cashless and using instead a currency that provides absolute observability (hence potential for further control) of your economic activity. The political class cannot resist the temptation to use that to mine resources and obedience out of everyone.

That's why China implemented it first as the chinese communist party keeps the country under relative economic freedom with absolute population behavioral control.

Corollary?

Our societies in this other side of the world aren't supposed to be vulnerable to such totalitarian measures, but are suffering a sort of contagion of that very same driver, but implemented slowly and in a more covert way. Got accelerated and more overt lately and it will be more towards the self-evident status.
Thanks for the great report! I also encountered it at a client's place but didn't have to dig in too deeply, which I count myself lucky for after reading this :-D
>it's not like commenting out variables is difficult.

But if you comment var A that uses var B now B is unused and you need to commnet B, but now B was using a function parameter C and this param is unused now so you need to update the function signature (I do not use Go,Zig so maybe they did not forced you to also use all the function params my experience is with linters where ehwn you comment something then more unused warnings appear)
