Honestly I don’t see trump living through this term, let alone another.
No other republican has his cult of personality, so idk what they’re going to do when he keels over.

It’s because musk is the Tesla stock price. The entire valuation of that company is based of the force of personality that musk has.
If they ousted musk, the Tesla shares would be worth less than any other auto maker instead of more than all of them combined.
> Doesn’t the CEO have fiduciary responsibility to not tank the company in a worldwide market?
I don’t think this is necessarily true in a legal sense
Look at the TSLA price since the announcement.
But, yeah, seems like just a nothing burger from the Verge.
Also, Tesla just jumped bc Musk said that there’s going to be full sell driving in china…. Next year…
We’re back to 2017-era strategies but in china this time.
I still really liked it, though.
The issue is that a corporation can afford to hire teams of 10s of lawyers to pour hours into any given case.
The real problem is what to do about it?
Suggesting some limits is akin to suggesting that laws shouldn’t be explored, dissecting, and understood down to the letter, which it should.
Law isn’t like programming. There’s no compiler. There’s no specific target machine code to which all laws must boil down to.
You can’t automate law, since the desired outcome for each case is not known from the start. That’s the whole “justice is blind” saying.
The issue is that the laws governing corporations were written by corporations and have lots and lots of loopholes.
To match your analogy: You’re suggesting an entire codebase rewrite when, truthfully, we need to refactor our laws surrounding what corporations can and can’t do and what punishment should be for corporations and the people that run them.
A rewrite always sounds appealing when you first join a project, before understanding why architecture decisions were made in the first place.
What specifically do you think is inapt or archaic about our legal system other than the individuals that make it up?
they’re talking at the devs, but really talking to the market, since their job is partially to pump their own stock price.
You can’t believe public CEO statements.
The root cause is that lawyers are expensive a corporations have more money than just about anyone else.
Couple that with a legislature which pretty much only passes laws in a reactionary manner and the fact that corporate lobbying has been a mainstay in US politics for the majority of the lifetime of the US and you get what we have now.
Can you get me a job where you work?
Everywhere I’ve worked in the past 10 years as a developer, I’ve had 0 ability to do whatever the fuck I want.
If that’s my job, why do I have no influence on the product?
What’s the point of product managers?
Or because Zuckerberg wanted to avoid “life in prison”
Which may be worse, actually.

That’s why I’m going to wait to believe these stories until more time has passed.
If these were just a blip come a few months, then they were a fluke.
If it becomes a pattern… well it wouldn’t be surprising…
I _feel_ like the administration would brag about blocking potential European terrorists or something of this was actually going on intentionally.
My gut tells me that the people getting blocked at the border are either running into extremely overzealous border guards OR are making some kind of ruckus anyway and complaining to the media after provoking guards somehow.
Still not acceptable behavior by border guards, but it’d be a far cry from a top down order.
I guess we’ll see how often these stories keep popping up.
Classic AI sites.
Tbf this is the nicest looking AI site I’ve seen yet.
Idk why that energy doesn’t come out during elections.
The hard part is making the benchmark meaningful in the first place.
> who imports copies or phonorecords into the United States in violation of section 602, is an infringer of the copyright or right of the author, as the case may be.
Copying itself is infringing. OC has no clue what they’re talking about.
I think a solid argument can be made that facebook downloaded and shared pirated material with literally every ML employee they had at the time…
EDIT: to those who downvoted, why? Do you disagree with what I said?
I swear if they start cutting books and exhibits about things specifically musk dislikes and we don’t see comparisons to book burnings, I’m going to lose all faith in the people of this country.
