We have oscillated back and forth with each being the exciting new solution for what sucks about the other for decades, though. This is just the latest swing of the pendulum to one or the other. I guess they are round now, maybe that was th

Progress in science as I understand is only on the shoulders of giants (previous research), not starting over from first principles with every generation. If we did that we'd get nowhere, each generation would get to the wheel or so an

Having been around for cubicles, its surprising to see them described by a new generation as some kind of utopian ideal. Even if they are round now, instead of square. Roundicles? Best not think too much about what we will call the ones for

For me an apology (regardless of who makes it, this is not a special standard I hold just for Elon Musk) is taking responsibility both for the action and then taking steps to help address the consequences. Pointing to how it was someone els
