It's having a heck of a career. Motherfucker has a better space program than any country and the Model Y is looking to beat the Toyota Corolla as the highest selling car in the world this year. It was the highest seller in the 1st quarter.

How much success does someone have to have before people can admit he's pretty good at making good engineering decisions?

I really doubt you folks are members of that blog and read the story.

The reason his companies are so successful is because he does listen to his engineers and prioritizes their communication and decision making by having a relatively flat organization that keeps management interference at a minimum.
No leader makes the right call and decision every time.

Interestingly enough there was another article published very recently about how Tesla's full self-driving performed every bit as good as Waymo in San Francisco but with less hardware.
And I think it is pretty obvious which of the two is going to work better outside of San Francisco.

Typical garbage take by the Guardian. It used to be a good paper.

And not news. This is an opinion piece/diatribe.

The US Coast Guard doesn't do a whole lot in the Mediterranean.

undefined> I’m so tired of valuing people based on their net worth.

You mean like you just did?
In case you care, which you've already indicated you don't, there are more researchers on the submarine than billionbaires.

I think so. And they use old school wired phones. No wireless speakers.
There's a service that scans the area and looks for any radio sources. It's crazy.

The folks with their dick in the asshole of the guy you are sucking off. Kind of difficult to see from your vantage point but everyone else can see it.

They've been spamming their posts of them sucking Russia's dick all over Lemmy. And getting massively downvoted every time, as it should be.

There's nothing communist about Russia now. They are trying to recreate the Russian Imperium, not the Soviet. Not that the Soviet was much better.

Sorry, using "just" pisses me off too. It's a really arrogant way of saying things, I agree. And yes, it would be a major pain in the ass. That is the kind of thing housewives did while their husbands were at work, which is honestly how it was able to work. And yeah, traffic and cities are much more crowded and sprawled now. I was pointing out it is possible though. And a dumb cell phone can be used for two factor auth. But overall I agree with everything you said. I was being pedantic and technically correct.
Small town life colors my view as well. Things are a lot different than in the cities.

Whether their hubris is punished or not is of no consequence to me. In some ways the ultimate karma is waking up every day to find out we are ourselves. I'm more concerned with building cool stuff for us to use than with anyone getting what I think is their comeuppance.

That's great. Teaching them what it is capable of opens new vistas (not that Vista) and that there are lots of possibilities with other software as well. Not a MS fan at all but Excel is powerful and the point comes through regardless of the platform.
