lack of headphone jack, annoying but not a deal breaker, last years processor and screen tech together with standard camera offerings and common storage levels... now we are at deal breaker, shouldn't google be trying to lead by example not trying to be yet another middle of the pack "ok" phone.
Guesses and assumptions should always be included and documented in project planning that you think they aren't tells volumes about your experience. Estimates and margin of error should also be called out with expected lower ranges and what delays and problems are likely to put them at that lower end as well as what needs to happen to put them at the upper end. The problem seems to be Elon only ever mentions the top end estimate (which is really dumb on his part) If you think they haven't done them then you are kidding yourself and if they really haven't done them then this is a company that will be bankrupt as how the fuck do you price a car in advance with no detailed plans to produce that car with all the risks outlined.
They have never been a mass production business at these levels before nor have the prospect of competitors looking to attack their market, the 5000 a week number is 250% higher than their current total production numbers. production delays and misses now cost them ever increasing amounts of money and introduce more competitive risk on an item which isn't high margin to begin with. would a small miss kill them, probably not, but the question in investors minds will be how big a miss will it be over the coming year or two. personally I have no interest one way or the other as I don't buy stocks in car companies or even oil companies but I can definitely see from an investor perspective why I would be concerned at the numbers.
If you are missing the numbers by such a large number then it brings into question all your future predictions, if the future predictions are off be even 10 or 20% that is going to result in huge revenue problems, PR problems and delivery delays all of which are major concerns for a bet the company project as not only does it hurt short term it gives the competitors more time to displace you.
yeah and still NO. record store numbers have been exploding, there have been articles that their numbers haven't been so high since the 80's, records are also proliferating into selling in other stores as well. I personally don't care to go back to the crappy sound of records but they are certainly increasing for both stores and sales.
vinyl records are at 30 year high sales (certainly way more popular than they were back in 2007) and film is also on an upward not downward trajectory, so no those predictions were not just wrong they were fucking awful as both film and record sales have significantly grown since 2007 not decreased and certainly not become extinct.
your graphs around mining jobs are more related to how heavily automated they are now and the heavy machinery used. We have a lot of the same doomsayers in Australia around coal and it seems to come mostly from ignorance of what coal is actually used for, for instance around 50% of the Coal mined here is actually used for steel production.
Maybe the US only mines coal for use as fuel in energy generation? I doubt it but could be possible I guess.
None of those can be broken up by "overseas" monopoly trials, you actually have to do such a thing in their country of residence. foreign countries can only fine/place trading restrictions on them or impose tariffs, no country has the power to impose structural reform on a foreign company outside of their borders.
how are they correct on all counts? by my reading they were arguably wrong on all counts. maybe payphones you could give them, the rest are all wrong and some are even stronger now than they were back then.
Once self driving cars are realised Uber won't really be relevant anymore as any company will be easily able to setup self driving services locally. Uber's current strength is its driver base, without that they are no better than any startup.
woosh, I was answering the idiotic that claimed all our fauna was protected. It isn't and that is a good thing as things like Kangaroos are in plague proportions in many parts of the country.
it is flying in a specific area generally because they thought it was a cheaper way of doing what is traditionally done by a full sized aircraft, turns out they were wrong!
wedge-tailed eagles strike at speed with incredible power as they rely on this to stun/kill, they are also very large birds which can weigh up to around 6kg and while the rotors may do some damage the drone will still be destroyed by the impact. They are also a protected species
While Spanish government are being gigantic cocks and I hate google too. Google can only do so much, it won't be billions that it costs you when you disobey direct court orders it is executives in jail and as much as I hate google I don't think it is reasonable to expect them to put their staff in that position no matter the greater good.
That is more to do with US reporting than anything else. The US is very ego-centric/self focused, news that does not relate to the US or a US country will not even rate a mention unless it is of epic proportions, blame the press or the average US persons attitude towards the rest of the world.
twins make up a bit under 5% of births, identical twins about 0.4%, siblings that look similar would probably push that to 10% or higher. The ability to scan someones face and produce realistic models is also not difficult and can be done without you even being aware it is happening. I would say that 1 in a million is bullshit number and probably comes with a disclaimer of "under ideal conditions" which would limit it to random members of the public trying to access the phone of someone unrelated.
bullshit, all of the Captain/first officer garbage was touchy feely bullshit, their was fuck all logic to any of their actions. I never said the Klingons were good, but compared to anything on the fucked up federation side in this steaming turd they looked great. how could you possibly think the captain was an interesting character? she lacked all substance and made decisions that went against logic and just plain common sense.
No it is fucking awful. way too much touchy feely Janeway type crap combined with moronic plot building and a captain and first officer that are suicide twins doing everything themselves regardless of how risky. I am hoping Michael gets the same treatment as the captain got in the next few episodes then perhaps they can start again. The only remotely likeable characters are the klingons
there is only so much you can mitigate, we are already at a stage where home connections are at the scale when aggregated together that they can drown even the insane bandwidth levels that cloudflare have and if you design your attack that it mimics normal web site traffic it can be extremely difficult to handle.
If I was a cloudflare customer I would be looking at apossible transition to its competitors and planning said move right now. I am not sure if their marketing team is retarded or just plain clueless but they have invited wide scale attacks and NO they cannot mitigate well crafted large scale attacks and everyone hosted by cloudflare will be affected.
They still make it...barely. It has a tiny market, I suspect it is mostly bought by hotels etc to stock for tourists to buy that think that is what Australians drink.
I had always heard the lower accuracy from gps was a government imposed restriction or limitations of the protocols not a technical one. is that simply an old myth? I know nothing about the tech personally.

hmmm interesting, I guess my kangaroo steak I just had for dinner must be illegal! wonder why they sell it in the supermarket.
since when the fuck did Atoms become 2D items?

Unlikely to find fosters can's in Aus, that shit is drunk by americans and other foreigners, we won't touch that stuff here.
