To modify a quote from The Dark Knight: "Let me get this straight, you think one of the wealthiest and most powerful men in the world, who owns the Washington Post and pays out of his own pocket to send rockets to space, won't sta

There is more to this sell off than simply Nvidia earnings report. With such a large investment, this is a fairly short duration to sell after, especially considering the gain for Softbank isn't as large as your would expect. Its diffi

Not true. USMCA was signed before the arrest. Approx USMCA was finalized on Nov 30 (negotiated in the months before that. Meng was arrested on Dec 1). Citations: https://www.npr.org/2018/11/30/672150010/

This is an perfect example of a news for the sake of news. The author twice points out that he could be wrong and that they can't really predict at all. I guess if things do go south, he will be able to use this article to point out th

Wonder how many people there are who would be good programmers but never had the opportunity to code in the United States? Have there ever been studies on the programming capability of people who never coded before who are given some traini

The piece came off to me as somebody looking for a way to be offended. She criticizes Damore and Google but doesn't point out what is lacking in Damore argument and instead of showing why google is wrong, her argument makes me realize

Surprised that there is no mention of the 6 million people who also just live within 4 hours north of Detroit (corridor leading up to Toronto) and the opportunities available there (and greatly leveraged by the auto industry).

That sounds like a social nightmare. Complete dissolution of the concept of trust in society. And there is that much bureaucratic steps to get it on, it really may become an activity that's more trouble than its worth (vs the current w

Can we let the thing get announced before we all jump on the Tesla bandwagon. We have no idea what the capability of this thing will be.

There are enough professionals with bachelors being hired from top universities outside the US (ex. University of Waterloo, ETH Zurich, University of Cambridge, Peking University, etc...) who come to the US on H1B visas in the 65K batch.

Well you will have an I94 form and a slip/stamp indicating TN status in your Passport. Would be kind of ridiculous to be carrying your Degree, transcript of grades and documents from your employer every time you cross the border.

There are two really big problems with this outlook. First if everyone achieves a high level education, the competition for high skilled jobs also goes up, making the higher education mean less and requiring further education to beat the cr

If people purely judged each other on what they googled...no one will ever get hired.

With all the focus on autonomous systems, I haven't seen one dedicated to coordination between two or more vehicles like this. Interesting idea to take advantage of drafting for trucks.

Its a joke about how Tim Ferris followers can be very protective and dogmatic about his teachings, which parallel the way followers react to a certain prophet of a certain religion we all know.

I'd also love to hear which employer is paying 250K for an entry level position? This seems like the salary the 1 genius for every 10,000 good graduates would get. And without taking bonus into account, I doubt an engineer is getting p

As someone who lived in Toronto and now lives in SV, this is great news for the region, which is flush with talent and is really doing everything to support researchers and entrepreneurs. However the cost of living(COL) is prohibitive, mayb

The idea of rent seeking is becoming very popular and the best place to see it is Silicon Valley. Everything is becoming subscription based and housing is pretty much out of reach for everybody. Only way to afford anything is to rent it. Th

In such a globalized world, where economics are so linked that many countries, including the US, couldn't survive without the others, this type of stuff just sends society backwards. Not like we don't have enough guns pointed at t
