It’s not actually Dallas Texas, it’s The Dalles Oregon. Much smaller town. Bad journalism.

People need social connections with their peers to work together successfully. It's much easier to build these connections in the office than virtually. Seeing each other a couple times per quarter for an extended period could also wor

I had ChatGPT hallucinate an entire iOS API, complete with docs, sdk version, and URL on apple's website. All of it fake news.

Yes, at YouTube I inherited the Pilot Studio iOS codebase from Will Kiefer. This included a solid iOS application framework and a couple really nice prototypes. We hired some great folks, extended "PilotKit" quite a bit, and built

They aren’t, yet. There is enough demand that Ford does not need to produce these smaller pack cars for a few years at least. Much like Tesla, they announce the cheaper (shorter range) config, but enough demand exists they never need to act

A lot of assumptions here that Parag is out after Elon takes over. Is that backed up by evidence?

Fun little Google/SpaceX trivia. For a long time, Google was the biggest SpaceX investor. Elon used to sleep in Larry's Palo Alto guest room for years... may still do so when visiting Tesla's Palo Alto office. Larry has a Mer

Trust. People are more eager to purchase something if it's not tied to a specific company or platform. This is why art NFTs are so popular -- nobody trusts a single company (OpenSea, Foundation, Bitski, et al) to stick around forever,

There is no blanket logic here. This is not an atrocity. This is an instance of global pandemic, literally a 100-year natural disaster affecting all of humanity. It's not some slippery slope about your "freedom", stop trying
