It is surprising that a for someone who portrays himself as hyper-logical, Musk cannot see simple cause and effect.

Would love to join this group as well, if possible.

One of the most dramatic stories has to be him causing both sides in the Nigerian civil war to have a cease fire to watch him play.

Part of it might be the universal appeal of football, but it is undeniable that his legend preceded him.

At this point, it seems Wells Fargo execs have decided that as a company strategy, these fines are going to be a Opex line item on their balance sheet. Cost of doing business - plain and simple.

Yes this is giving him too much credit, seeing what we see as his first hand actions.

Before he learns to play 3D or 4D chess, he needs to learn to play regular chess.

Any suggested readings/links? I am merely going by his current public persona and whatever the Gates Foundation is doing.

Gates or Warren Buffet. Both of them seem pretty grounded for the amount of wealth they possess.

Very likely the only people who can reliably send that message to Musk are $TSLA investors. Until he has the cushion provided by $TSLA stock price, he is pretty much going to continue doing whatever he wants to.

There is Tweep

This is a very old article by Francis Crick which essentially says the same: https://www.nature.com/articles/337129a0

Like re-inventing Bukowski's writing style with terrible UX

There is one at the end too (if you reach that far) shilling for another company where he is an investor - Block Party.

The problem is, any system that replaces it, and has some measurable/countable metric, can effectively be gamed in the same manner.

This has been repeated so many times on this thread. So may I ask specifically how she led by example?

I stand corrected. My knowledge was anecdotal and limited to OCI and FMW groups.

It is very likely that people in the core technical teams are not even aware that Oracle owns the Javascript trademark.

"Equally surprising was that Indian Railways, the country’s largest employer, chose to continue fighting the case."

There needs to be some sort of common sense oversight in the Raliways (and most probably in other Indian government organizations also).

Also I wonder on what grounds the Railways was fighting on? The prices of the tickets are well known and widely published, and even though they do change over time, a lawyer like Chaturvedi would have kept all documentation.

OBC stands for "Other backward classes". It is a caste classification created by the Indian government based on certain criteria of people who are economically/educationally backward but who do not fall under the main backward class group (Scheduled Castes/Scheduled Tribes - SC/ST).

Surely this works in a short timeframe where a landlord can make a tactical decision to let the property sit empty rather than rent it out for less than a threshold. Landlords can even collude on a minimal rent below which they will not rent. (Basically "hold the line"). But how is this sustainable in the long run? The money for the original mortgage has to come from some place. Not all landlords have an infinite supply of money to keep this practice going on for a few years. (There is no VC funding available for them).

With commercial units (eg - downtown San Francisco) it is even harder because with remote work, the jobs are never coming back to the city.

Round number bias?

McVoy claimed that it would take someone roughly 5 years to solve the problems that bitkeeper solved. Torvalds took a few weeks of break and did it. Granted git at that time was far removed from the feature set and polish it had after a few years.

But considering how many times we have heard the "I can build this in a weekend of coding" trope, git is truly an exception weekend-project (+) that actually delivered on the promise.

Same here. The 365 days movie was quite atrocious and borderline porn.

If you have already signed up for a fixed period (such as an year), then your that would remain your minimum obligation. Sleazy business will allow you to break the obligation at a hefty fine.

"Don't you see that the whole aim of Newspeak is to narrow the range of thought? In the end we shall make thoughtcrime literally impossible, because there will be no words in which to express it. ”

Yes the same. The pawn race and subsequent diagonal pin are the same.
