There is much more to design than shape. While shape is the most visible and, in some people's minds, the most glamorous, there are many more interesting design challenges waiting for the right engineer.
TL;DR Tesla was the clear winner in Capabilities and Performance along with Ease of Use. However, Tesla severely lagged in the nag features.
I wonder if the memo will make it down to Putin's direct reports?
Don't be silly, He'd Tweet is out as crouton tomatoes.
And his idiocy in this regard is probably the only thing saving us from global annihilation.
So Microsoft's argument is that if a company builds their business using your software and services becoming so entrenched within a market that they can decide that they no longer want to pay for their continued use of your software and service which, according to Microsoft, is OK because their customers could be harmed if you decide to stop provided the software and services? Am I getting that about right? I wonder if their could be any unintended consequences to Microsoft's business model.
The CC companies are not providing a store front, product development support and delivery. Certainly I think 30% is a big cut, but it is disingenuous to compare it to the 3%-5% fees charged by credit card companies.
Tesla is in a tricky spot with this one. If they lose the ability to enforce software standards then who will own the risk of potential Supercharger issues. It wouldn't be difficult for an untrained weekend tinkerer to bypass some piece of governing code thereby putting everyone at a Supercharge at risk. Keep in mind that DC charging is largely regulated within the car as only the car can monitor the batter and determine the appropriate charge rate.
I am really on the fence with this one. I like to tinker, but this is a new world that has yet to fully settle. In five to ten years once batteries are more resilient and charging challenges have been fully hammered out I can see my views changing--or at least how I weigh the relative freedoms vs risks.
Countless cash settlements, court orders and an actual finding of guilt (Trump Foundation) should carry an "imputation of guilt" as well, but here we are. The vast majority of Trump's die-hard supports could care less about guilt. And it has become increasingly apparent that the President only care about what he gets, not what the majority of people think.
If I were Biden, I would only agree to pardon him if he leaves the White House peacefully and only for a specific set of documented crimes. I would never give someone a free pass when you do not know the true depth of what may have happened.
Except that Facebook has censored content that is critical of Trump.
I see so many conversations where people take a hard position regarding how to tally the statistics. It is clear that some people draw the line in order to bolster their political view. It is a shame that this has to even be political, but these are the times we are living in. I believe that it is important to take as many strict measures as you can such as diagnosed COVID deaths, likely related diagnosed deaths, along with deaths by other specific causes. These should all be measured in historical context and will likely tell us more than we know today. The overall net impact to the monthly death rate is also important, even if we cannot immediately prove cause and effect studying all the varied statistics can help us gain a deeper understanding of what is going on and help us develop better strategies in the future. Although, even though I am a facts and data guy, I guess that there is also a compelling argument that all of this data in useless because we already know the one variable that we need to change.
If a hospital is overwhelmed and unable to treat patients because of COVID, how do you categorize all of the ancillary deaths? Keep in mind that many treatable conditions can lead to death if not treated in a timely manner.
If someone brings a bomb into a hospital and takes a hostage--ultimately killing the hostage--causing the hospital to go into lock-down and disrupting the care of patients, is that person responsible for the deaths of any of the untreated patients or only the hostage that dies at their hands?
What are the difference between these two scenarios? How might we measure differently under different circumstances? How might these be measured medically? How would these be handled in the court of law? How will these be viewed through a historical lens? How might these be viewed as a function of leadership?
These are difficult questions that are clearly up for debate.
Yeah, the cheap Wolfenstein knockoff. That one!
I looked at screen shots from both of these. To be they both look just like Doom.
It sounds like you let yourself become dependent on software instead of using software to solve problems.
Obvious troll! The Mac Pro with 28 cores doesn't come in a 64 Meg option--nor a 64 Gig for that matter.
It's a naive, domestic operating system without any breeding, but I think you'll be amused by its presumption.
