Musk: 'If you are part of a less represented group, you don't get a free pass on being a jerk yourself. We have had a few cases at Tesla where someone in a less represented group was actually given a job or promoted over more qualified highly represented candidates and then decided to sue Tesla for millions of dollars because they felt they weren't promoted enough. That is obviously not cool."
So Musk is openly bragging about discriminatory practices at Tesla.
Does this "sort of things" include yelling Allah Akbar prior to blowing oneself up in a crowded area? Also who gets to decide on definition of "very good"?
In that case, you should aggressively advocate religious fundamentalism as you claim it reduces undesirable human behavior.
However, empirically observing modern geopolitics - fundamentalist regions are universally vile places filled with human suffering while secular places tend to be some of the better places to live.
This is 'No true Scotsman' fallacy. How many people, other than Jesus, would universally fit most definitions of 'god fearing'? Its an aspiration and ideal, not a method of reducing criminality.
Yes, what you say is mostly true - they excel at definition stretching, moving goalpost and so on. However, all of this comes AFTER basic fact checking. After all, if you have clean and factual argument, why resort to shenanigans?
That is, fact checking would still be the first step in the process.
If you are criminally harassed, record and call the cops. For anything else consider that your safe zone doesn't extend past university campus, social studies faculty.
Every time I check my fridge from my app I see some weird old man stretching his anus. How did he manage to stretch it that far all while fitting inside my fridge?
Problem is much bigger than security. Lets say I designed a very secure smart TV that I also regularly patch. The problem of this TV listening on my conversations and inserting ads into my feed remains.
This why I think only legislative solution could work. We should have clear rights to our own data, so we can stop on-going theft of it.
There is nothing unique to Linux that makes it particularly suitable to mobile space. Sure, what you suggested was better than what Palm end up running at the end of its life, but this is coincidence. For example, iOS was still inferior to what BlackBerry (QNX) run by the time BB died. So it isn't only about kernel.
To add to the above. For me, locally sourced food is about taste. I live far away from California, so when peaches, lettuce, tomatoes make it here they taste like shit. They have to harvest them green then ship them in refrigerated and controlled-atmosphere storage. When I buy local, obviously in season when it is available, I do so due to taste.
My local Whole Foods has excellent bakery, butcher, and yogurt sections. I like my fresh bread, good steak, and niche yogurt types. According to you, this makes me almost anti-vaxer./rolleyes
Amazon business model is a mail order catalog but on Internet. Therefore, we don't need to speculate how it would work - we can know for sure by looking at historical precedents. Smartphones and iPhone were different case, it isn't "phone on the Internet" but entirely new platform that created its own demand. Genius of Jobs was to recognize that people wanted access to cat pictures 24/7. No sane and rational individual would have guessed this is the case. The only way Amazon can be this Jobs-disruptive is if they come up with a new platform (e.g. e-reader for food) or a new method of delivery (e.g. drone to your drone landing pad).
People that shop at Whole Foods are not price conscious, it is premium retailer aimed at well-off crowd. This group doesn't intersect with WallMart shoppers, so why then would you want to compete with WallMart on price?
When I am buying a dishwasher, a pair of shoes, or a car I want hardware. It is CRAZY to force me into SaaS or Cloud or even just apps in these cases. This is pets.com all over again.
I think key problem is that automakers forgot that they are in the hardware business. Too many pushing infotaiment and other unwanted, and in cases like OnStar privacy-invading, features. All this while simple docking station for your smartphone would do.
Another issue is marginal technologies that undermine reliability. Direct injection for example, who wants to deal with engine sludge just to get 5% better gas mileage? Not me.

Do you think fear of God stopped anyone from doing bad things to other humans?
You would be crazy to make something up like that, as THE ENTIRE SJW LEGION will be fact checking such statements.

He probably wasn't asked to autonomously land a reusable tunnel on a self-driving barge.
We thought OS integrity was sacrosanct, but here we are with Windows 10 spying on you. This too will change.
"Who are security conscious" are very niche market, as such only ultra-upscale offerings would be profitable. So a $500 'artisinal' dumb toaster.

This isn't as simple as that. If I can sell you a toaster that snoops $10 worth of data over its lifetime, then I can undercut dumb toasters by $10.
After reading the article, I am looking forward to IoT sewage pump.
Clearly, he would rather his son drag old Chevelle while beating his wife at the same time.
Multiple genetic studies showed that older fathers correspond to higher genetic load (this is bad) for all offspring.
+1 funny.

The other 99% is market hype and bubbles.
