Tesla's goal is 20% of the entire market. They're making positive progress on that goal. They don't care about their share of the EV market.
Tesla has a PE of 50 which is very reasonable for a growth stock

There was recently exactly the opposite news... duh. I wish HN filtered out all the big media websites (Forbes, NYTimes, etc.)

Pretty much every good programmer I know, senior or not, will have no problem solving this unless they have a particularly bad day or brain fart; at worst, they may take slightly more time remembering/reinventing aspects of a trie to work out the optimal solution.

What folks need to remember is the employers who are primarily known for asking this generally have no problem hiring people who are good programmers and ALSO good at e.g. Dynamic Programming. And no, as much as some try to frame it, the two skills are not directly at odds with each other. Therefore, between a good programmer who can “Leetcode” and one who cannot, why wouldn’t they pick ones that are good at both?

And sure, if your company don’t have that luxury, don’t cargo cult. Hire a good enough domain expert for your specific needs.
It's not the same thing. io_uring remaps a contiguous chunk of pages in both the kernel and userspace vas. For read/write the data is copied from userspace into kernelspace.

My brain read that as “robot axis” at first
When you are at 72% of a market that's expected to increase 10x over the next decade, staying at that market share is pretty tough. It's not something anyone should expect or desire from a healthy market.

Tesla can both lose market share and continue doubling sales year over year. Both are true when you are measuring market share of the "EV market" which is still single-digit percentages of the overall auto market.
Did you read the article, though? The argument thing was on the Minecraft room; the leaks were reportedly more of a long-term thing with intel shared out of a sense of “community” and “edification” on a smaller group.
Your concern is spot on, and it's not even specific to California. Nevada and Arizona also consume far more water with farming than all urban uses combined. Cutting back on swimming pools or lawns or whatever is fine, but it's literally a rounding error compared to the water consumed by farming. Nothing else will matter if we keep growing water intensive crops in the desert.

If working in Stable Diffusion, with ControlNet, Latent Couple, SegmentAnything, and inpainting, you can get incredibly complex scene composition. It's not just typing in a description and getting what you want in one step, but it's still a significantly easier skillset to learn than what would be needed to create the same level of artwork manually.

One shot random prompt stuff is better on Midjourney and I'm still subscribed to it, but I would say I do 99% of my playing around inside StableDiffusion these days.
This is what it's all about: cost of labour.

"We already asked the human resources agency to hire production line workers from Cambodia and Laos for our plants in Bac Ninh province," said an executive whose company supplies Apple in Vietnam. "The labor costs also increased so fast. ... In just a few years, the basic wage we offer in Vietnam is already 80% of the offer in our Shenzhen facility."

Apples rate of profit on the BoM is pretty good. It's not like they make a loss on each unit sold. But, if somebody can show there's a higher profit, then an opportunity loss becomes somebody's KPI.
Energy storage and energy demand arbitrage, brine mining, robots, Tesla only tunnels.

That's what people are betting on. Not just that Tesla will beat Toyota in electric cars.
> Meanwhile the Rivian pick-up I test drove feels like an actual vehicle on the inside and had better handling

In Model 3 and Model Y, it is clear that Tesla is cutting corners where it can & the gap between those and a Model S Plaid is stunning.

The Rivian, EQS, Mach E and Taycan were head and shoulders above my Model 3, but also in a slightly different price range.

My car feels like a Toyota with a Tesla touchscreen the way it feels inside (at least it understands my accent when I ask it to change the temp on voice). The Kia EV6 GT is probably a close comparison or the new Prius in the way it looks.

Definitely overpaid to get access to the highway Supercharger network. My friends drove from SF to Chicago round-trip in a Model 3 in the winter break and when Tesla starts charging Rivians everywhere, it will be somewhat of a game changer.

Because of that, I think Tesla as sort of a Ford meets Exxon, they make a trickle of money off the chargers, more if they have CCS - I'm actually waiting for them to stab me in the back and ship a Tesla with a standard CCS, making me carry around a "dongle" to charge my old model.
Lead wouldn't solve our modern uses of rebar.

Rebar in modern concrete is mostly to provide stength in tension as opposed to "compression" (which concrete is quite strong in). Modern building then relies on this strength.

The lead rebar in the Colisseum was mostly to keep blocks that were laid in compression the ability to stay locked and aligned even if they got shifted a bit.
Of the answers I see here, I think I agree with yours most.

I think LLM uptake in coding/engineering tasks will be slow and boring. You won't see some companies suddenly have 1000% growth due to AI. Well except maybe AI companies themselves selling the AI.

I suspect it'll be more like GitHub Copilot or similar products becoming more ubiquitous. Don't have to type as much or do some mundane tasks as much. But overall your work itself wouldn't change too much. GitHub Copilot is damn useful but by now it has also become boring and you don't see headlines of it these days.

Long-term (10+ years) though I'm less confident. Maybe by then some major new breakthrough have happened in AI that can automate way more than now so the "hard parts" in software development are taken care of as well. But right now I think the fear of losing jobs for an AIs is overblown, at least for software.
I hope so, but for some reason, I doubt that small cars will catch on soon, whether driverless or regular.

They make a lot of sense economically and ecologically. Despite that, companies have been building things like Mircolino and Isetta for a while and no one seems to be buying.
WAL mode has some issues where depending on the write pattern, the WAL size can grow to infinity, slowing down performance a lot. I think this usually happens when you have lots of writes that lock the table so sqlite never gets to doing wal_autocheckpoint.

I believe that WAL2 fixes this:

Wal2 mode does not have this problem. In wal2 mode, wal files do not grow indefinitely even if the checkpointer never has a chance to finish uninterrupted

> What if you generated less revenue during a period where TikTok was eating your lunch, Apple changed privacy controls which impacted the targeted ad landscape, your CEO was focused on VR,

The underlying commonality here is out of touch, uncreative, and inept executives. Why is TikTok eating Facebook's lunch? Because they spent their considerable engineering talent trying to squeeze ever more money out of their users via advertising than making compelling products.

Apple impacting their revenue by allowing the users, of all people, to be aware of and control data sent to third parties (Facebook). They doubled down on surveillance capitalism and when Apple simply made their collection opt-in they lost a ton of revenue. Apple didn't even block Facebook, they just made it clearer to users exactly what Facebook was collecting.

And then the CEO is off making stupid bets on VR. The Metaverse is conceptually bankrupt. Instead of letting users create environments and content from the bottom up and fully control how their virtual world and self work they created a curated top down shitty theme park.

Facebook spent years squandering their engineering talent on bullshit. Working from home has zero to do with their management failures. In fact, for a company like Facebook whose every product is tied to communication, a requirement for engineers to be in an office should be seen as the massive fucking failure of mission that it is.

If their platform was worth a fraction of what it's valued at (by Wall Street) Facebook should hardly need offices. They should be able to dog food all of their own products to communicate and collaborate with ease. Demanding everyone return to offices is a signal that either their executives either don't believe their own bullshit and/or realize their platform is actually garbage for communication and collaboration.

Microsoft is a public company, so they always need to grow their business. That’s why they do anything that seems to make money. Even if it’s a software that costs 200 dollars, they show ads in the software.
You shouldn't be comparing by market cap, but instead enterprise value because TM has massive amounts of debt. In that case TSLA is 1.7x Toyota. Also, it doesn't matter what portion of the market you have. It matters how much profit you make and TSLA has the highest margins on EVs of any company. The Iphone is massively outsold by Android, but who makes more money? In this case I would say 1.7x Toyota is very fair, as Toyota is way behind EVs and is likely to get absolutely smoked by TSLA and VW in the EV transition.
Questions like these test to see how good you are at remembering your algorithms class. But I thought we’d all learned that the best interview question is one that tests the kind of work that you will actually be doing at your job. This is the equivalent of hiring a journalist by testing how well they remember that class they took on the Critique of Pure Reason. Not entirely useless, but not far from it.
Market cap is a function of revenue (cars sold) & margins, not just revenue.

Tesla PE is 50x, and Toyota PE is 10x.

Purely on the basis of earnings: If Tesla can 5x their sales (in a rapidly expanding market) while maintaining some of their pricing power, they'll be comparable to Toyota purely on the basis of multiples. The sales needn't come exclusively from automobiles either... And then there's equity-to-debt: Tesla has $3B USD in net debt; Toyota has $153B USD in net debt -- i.e. Toyota's enterprise value would be significantly higher if they had Tesla's debt load.
The most terrifying aspect of this is how these models are might be trained. If the source material is very effectively crafted, you might imagine an army of agents with cult leader like eloquence indoctrinating the weak of mind. Combine this with politically subversive motivations and you have serious threat to societies where the governments do not exert control of people with force.

In the past, it was difficult to disseminate disinformation since it was often planted in newspapers and such in other nations rather in the US. At some point this information might make it's way into our information ecosystem years later (false narrative that the US created HIV for example). The internet and social media has already changed that. Now disinformation flows instantaneously across borders, even finding unethical organizations which eagerly acts as clearing houses for this toxic content. We still have not successfully adapted to this crisis.

The reality is we have less than a few years to excise the already existing disinformation laundering networks, reinforce our information ecosystems, and educate the public. All this needs to be accomplished before addressing the imminent threat that malign language models pose in the immediate future. This is not only threat from abroad by hostile states but also from powerful self-serving organizations within our nations which might supplant democracy with a domestic brand of authoritarianism.

With people like Peter Thiel and Elon Musk bankrolling OpenAI, it's not looking good.
Even if this is true, it's kind of useless since you need some way to decide who to hire. Not saying i think OP has the best method.

Tbf, I did not, WaPo's paywall is aggressive.

I'm just speaking from experience.

I've known people very close to me who have leaked stuff in this manner before (nothing this classified though - more like non-classified gossip you'd read in Politico or Staffer Twitter quoting "an anonymous source working closely to the XYZ Subcommittee").

The leaker ofc made a horrible pattern of decisions, but it's kind of easy to see where they came from if they're dunking on friends or acquaintances in a semi-competitive manner
Anyone can name their publication anything. This article was written by David Oks, who is the furthest thing from the Washington consensus. He was one of the high school kids who promoted Mike Gravel for president on Twitter in 2020:

In India an "auto" is a three-wheeler autorickshaw, commonly known in English by its Thai name tuktuk. The "auto" here means it's motorized, as opposed to the original human-powered vehicles, this being the literal meaning of the Japanese jinrikisha (人力車).
> IMO, the tech debt we're going to see in 6 months will probably be huge. Good now to start a staffing agency of human experts who can come in and fix this type of problem (extricating massive amounts of code generated by GPT without starting from scratch) because there will be a bunch of fires to put out and those fires will be worth $

Nah they deserve to eat shit and the staffing agencies hired to fix the bad AI code will undoubtedly be people abroad who barely speak English and will only tangle it up worse. I would actually pay to be a fly on the wall in those meetings listening to people lose their minds in frustration.
if you are gonna advertise, at least give some hard figures on performance improvements
There's a famous incident on Australian TV where a TV presenter is told about how well a placebo works, and he assumes its a brandname or drug name and asks if they could be made available on the Pharmaceuticals Benefit Scheme (the national subsidy for expensive pharmacy cost sharing) and what's holding back GP's from prescribing them.

Certainly made me laugh but if you catch your wind its a bit of a Yogi Berra wisdom moment: if we did routinely prescribe placebos then they might actually help reduce the cost burden of real drugs with comparable efficacy, which are subsidised.

This article is about Tesla's share of US EV sales going from 72% to 58%.

Toyota's US market share for all autos is around 15%.

So I don't think this data point says much about whether Tesla will end up with a larger slice of the pie than Toyota currently has, at least in the US.
I'm skeptical that any such job exists.

Nim's great for writing DSLs as well, plus you can make it statically typed. It ends up being a sort of "yaml-expressions" rather than "s-expressions ". Creating DSLs is quite satisfying in general.

Does SQLite do direct disk I/o or something?

I’m open to being convinced otherwise, but I would expect that inserts/s would vary a bunch by filesystem.

That's US data FTR, and 62% is indeed impressive. Globally, Tesla has 12% market share however. BYD Auto, a Chinese manufacturer, has 20%, so Tesla is only second globally.

>that wasn't how many of the other industrialization success stories

Within context of modern developement, i.e. post ww2, where development is rapid industrialization in a few generations, success stories are essentially the Asian Tigers who hammered export led growth to accumulate foreign reserve (usd) then spend to accumulate increasingly expensive capital to make modern goods, throw in some industrial policy to protect native industries without pissing off trade partners (almost benefactors) who can turn off the FX / even tech transfer tap. Very few developing countries have the resources to bootstrap without bringing in foreign cash to buy foreign capital to bootstrap industrialization. Otherwise they start at essentially square one, for which the products are uncompetitive enough relative to imports from sufficiently industrialized economies that there is little latent demand, unless you go NK autarky route. It's the difference between saving up for decades vs taking out a loan and starting right away.
I moved from IC to manager for four years before moving back, and can agree with the points made here. Including the one about it being fairly easy to move back.

Some ICs may find they are actually better managers, and some will find out they were better at being an IC.

Others will find both satisfying in different ways, and may work out well on either ladder.

I may go back to being a manager some day, but for the time, I’m enjoying being an IC again.

If you’re fortunate enough to work at a company that affords you the flexibility, and you’re given the opportunity, I recommend trying it out, after you’ve read and ack’ed the tradeoffs in this article.

But if these tradoffs sound miserable to you, don’t bother; there are plenty of good opportunities as an IC — if not at your current gig, then at another one. And if not now, then later (when the economy improves).
In your example the thread is not blocked but the callers are blocked.

There is more to async/await than simply keeping os threads unblocked, they also provide a mechanism for keeping callers unblocked and synchronizing async contexts(parallel or concurrent).

Is Loom addressing this need? Otherwise it's Goroutines(or any green threading solution) without channels and select. The ecosystem will fracture around solutions to address the boiler and future chaining pains.
I agree this is true, but I think that's in contradiction to the notion that one can just ask some breezy "totally humane questions" and then make optimal hiring decisions. The more separate the domain, and the more preparation helps, the more you're testing for something pretty different than the work.

> Part of the job as an interviewer is to fill the whole time though. If we're done in 10 minutes of a 45 minute slot, that's a lot of time to fill. Usually the next interviewer is busy until the next one.

Right, I forgot this is Google and there's an in-person gauntlet to run! I would probably fail it just because a single interview usually leaves me drained.

Let me ask another question, can an engineer who solved everything in 10' screw up badly during the follow up questions which get asked to "make things interesting"? Even if this is unlikely, if it's at all possible it seems to me the optimal strategy of a good candidate is to stretch their answers as much as possible to prevent the introduction of followup "interesting" questions...

Some people write a book to be able to self promote.

I was on a meetup, where 4 scrum master "experts" were doing some presentation and they gave out their book. It was around 100 pages with very big font :) written by 4 people. So basically 4 bad essays of 25 page each.

But hey, they could then tell to HR that they (co)wrote a book on agile methodologies. Also they (co)hosted lectures for meetup attendees.

The more interesting part, is that this wasnt even the worst book about agile / scrum that I have read...
