Tesla outlook is not good. Main growth for them is basically automobile going EV where they have monopoly and they are energy supplier thru dominating battery tech. For EVs, they are able to dominate because other big ones like GM, Ford, Toyota havnt really going into EV market. In next 5 years every car manufacturers will be releasing their EV models and they have vastly superior production know-how compare to Tedla. Think Tesla like Blockbusters before Netflix HBO and Disney+ joining in. Cost of production of their EVs are no where cheaper than majority of EV manufacturers in Asia. Take BYD for example, they absolutely dominate China. In China, EV buses are a common thing. Meanwhile Tesla still struggling to make their cybertruck. Also a big growth is people believe Elon is at the forefront of selfdriving. If you dig down Tesla incidents worldwide on mysterious crashes, Uber would look like golden boy on that front. Then on battery tech, Tesla is literally the new Solyndra. Chinese market on battery tech now is at a stage no subsidies needed and production both quantity and quality exceed even Korean and Japamese manufacturing. Meanwhile everyone talking about Tesla S only getting half subsidies. I dont see how Tesla able to compete on that front even if they miraculously have German and Swedish quality next year. Remember Lehman Brothers, Citibank have their peak about 2 years before their permanent crash. Tesla is widely known to be overvalued. You want to sell it to the next suckers believing it will worth more before that suckers realized it is not. Danish did the right thing to get rid of Tesla. The only thing really worth some consideration is Elon making X as western Wechat with builtin Amazon+Uber+banking sub-apps in. That remain to be seen. In the meantime I put money into MS and AMD as they are a bit undervalue when you consider they have dominating asset in AI.

The only centuries old effective way to police the police is to have watchmen for them. In ancient time, they have society assassins that will hunt down entire police families (including extended one over several decades). This is usually misrepresented as family feud. The best example of this was how entire family/clan of China first emperor exterminated with the instigation of one of Chu (a country destroyed by first emperor) originated eunuch. You need to have a society element carrying illegal extermination to keep police or rulers in check.

Tesla is on course to be like Solyndra. You have to live in Eastern Asia and see how incredible China is on EVs. Just on their battery front for mobile phones really make EVERY western mobile phone battery look primitive (Samsung and Apple are nowhere what China Xiaomi and Oppo alike do with their phone battery). Samsung battery even go exploding or pregnant if not charging. China battery industry already stop subsidizing because of the oncredible competitiveness there. Meanwhile we all just started critisizing cybertruck releases. Tesla has 2 front for growth: as automobile manufacturer and as battery energy factory. Both front are severely hampered by China established developments. I am not surprise, Tesla will do cyberbus next or cybertrain next. Meanwhile Chinese has been riding their cyberbus and cybertrain for a decade. And in case you're wondering, China bullet train industry now out compete Japan and Germany. Just look at Indonesia newest bullet train by Chinese. It just make Japanase and Germans look medieval tech. Of course, USA look even worse with near cavemen tech in that area.

It is cost issue. If American can build 1K drones like that, Chinese and Russians can do easily at 100x due to their industries bases. Amercian lacks those industries within America right now. You hear a lot of Made iN China components slip into F35. So the cost for Americans are just too high especially with coming dedollarisation and persistent high inflation. It doesnt matter what Americans build as defense to drones attack, the enemy combatant will just outproduce and swamp you directly and/or slip in another ttacks during those saturation (e.g. surface base unmmaned speedboat with tactical nukes/thermo right at the center of Ametican warships/carriers. From what I have read, it is already developed and tested. We shluld be seeing American spanish armada wipeout in coming decades if WW3 happen.

USA elementary, middle and high school eductions are just plain terrible. Instead of learning useful technical skills needed in job market, they decided to do social agenda like critical race theory, very questionable history syllabus (especially on WW2), dumbing down math at least 3 years behind typical math syllabus in Asia, single language (if foreign/secondary language, useless in reallife but just good enough to score A in written exam). Heck even Havard to inflationary As with 40% of the class score one. This is why USA needs immigrants especially Chinese and Indians. Their core populations are truly dumb. Now that China and India actively stopping their smarts going over, I am wondering next gen smart immigrants probably coming from ganglands in South Ameticas or maybe fundamentalists from Middle Easts. Imagine this groups of people will run the trillion dollars economy and debts, fly F35, and operating nukes. It is gonna be scary for Americas in 2050 onwards.

Need creatine monohydrate maybe around 5-12g daily depending on age. I have seen MANY 60+ that look like late 30s simply keeping a daily creatine supplement religiously. Weight lifting prefer especially having bones being stressed compare to cardios.

Doubt so. There is a very strong Trump faction now dominating Republican house. Pelosi waning and Diane dead. We now have AOC faction. It is going to be very dysfunctional 2024-2026.

Think about it, we can go to the moon but now can't. None of the superpowercountries like China, Russia, EU, could. I give more credence to we never landed human there but only sent mechanical robots there for deployment to prove we landed there. Look up Neil Armstrong career after coming back from the moon. He was so wasted about his achievement...could have been senator or even some big corporation hotshot. But didnt. Nearly all moonwalkers behave the same. Either they have moon ptsd or as what conspiracy hinted, we never have human landed there.

Used to be near 100% takers. Those are new debts. The old debts being sold off actively and Fed had to intervene to buy up. Things are very bad right now. Just take whatever published values especially by Uncle Sam at CCP-level type of dishonesty. Look at some properties sold price, it is stale. A lot of local governments forbid publishing of those values. Look at unemployment rate, it is basically so different to during Carter era. Carter would have been doing extremely well with today's definition. Warren hoarding 120B for the coming raids. Same with many. Expect Joe to invoke wars (maybe Iraq, or Iran or even China-Taiwan) to stimulatereal gdp).

Fed collects interest and give it free back to US government. At this point, Fed is hoarding a lot of US debts to maintain liquidity and keeping interest from spiking up. Joe prints $, Fed buys up the debts without question.

Incarcerations should be harsh and life-ending. Look at North Korea, they have way less crime than even Tokyo. In comparions to Chicago look like a mess mafia gangland. When you reward the prisoners with a lot of benefits, you simply tell everyone crime pays. The focus should be on expediting justice and ensuring correct justice to be dispense. Prisoners that committed crimes should be left for them to be in miserable states to discourage them to do crime. Reoffending one can be liquidated. I really dont want my tax going to feed this kind of inhumans.

The point he was trying to make is the books for decade are mantra it as safe even though it is not. The new thing in this article rant is set a unique value before nulling and freeing allowing easier tracking of mysterious crash later. When I look thru hundreds of juniors code reviews with C++ coding, I have never seen one doing it (this is with Ivy Leagues or just Udemy/Coursera self-taught background). Even senior C++ devs dont do it. They either depend heavily on profile debugging tools or printf out at certain lines. It is a good article just maybe not for decades experience C++ coders or academically inclined one that dont do large production coding low level algorithmic much (their response is like yours not-perfect use-others-it-is-your-brain-problem)...in C++ (doing many API calls programming don't count...they are merely API programmers). Anyway, companies I worked with already migrated to rust and haskell/erlang to avoid this kind of C/C++ issues - same or even faster speed (some parts code in asm) and 100x times safer and more productive than just C++. C++ in 2023 is just badly hotch-patch up language - ugly, inconsistent, lack advanced features, even the so called biggest reason using: speed totally not match against zig/asm/even Java in some code implementation. At this point using C++ is mostly a laziness of programmers to record the existing "proven" C++ libraries a bit like Cobol - seen these conclusions over 20+ companies I audited across the world. A lot of time, when analysing using C++, it is fast if you measure specific execution timing but then fall apart and burn down the company with lawsuit-litigations when factor in bugs and debugging. Rust and Haskell and especially Erlang (Scala too) just steam-rolled C++ when you do total time (coding-execute-maintain-debugging). Whatsapp is good example of my case, you will never be able to create Watsapp with C++ in those short time and very limited resources - rather than just a couple of programmers for programming, you need a committee and specialized team internal and sometime external to do debugging in C++. C++ was designed for the 486-pentium era where bugs is not important but speed is. Today, just go buy a better hardware and charge end willing paying customers more (military/telecom/medical). C++ is just not worth it unless maybe you need to translate it into another programming language.

If there are overlaps, headcount reductions of those overlap make sense. Furthermore the takeover company must have extremely efficient existing staff with maybe 20-40% spare capacity to take over. I have seen multiple takeovers with overworked of inefficient existing staff before takeover. The takeovers destroyed that acquired business within 3-5 years simply because they dont have the people to run it after firing the previous efficient and well-trained staff. In fact their own existing staff quit because felt underpaid with the extra tasks due to let go staff. Double whammy. Overlapped staff like managers and sub-c suites still retained....which could easily cost about 20-30% of the salaries of those retrenched workers. They are also the absolutely most incompetent one that drove the business to failure. After 25years seeing how mergers ended up I come to the conclusions: #1 MBA schools are absolutely wrong about the benefits of mergers (always dont trust MBAs, if they are that good, they run their own business), #2 there is no such thing as companies synergism from mergers (but MBA called it "if realized" which simply doesnt exist in reality but might hinted on paper), and #3 the person approving mergers never have any management education and a lot not even having MBAs but fully trust some MBAs wearing nice suit especially giving off London English or behave like Steve Jobs demeanor.
