Which is ironic because scores of enterprise companies developed internal systems/reporting/intranets using .NET in the early 2000s, restricting their users to Internet Explorer!

I've been a Lumina Camera user for almost a year now and I've been impressed with two things: the quality of the camera, but also the Lumina team's approach to improvements. They ship updates constantly and the software gets better all the time. I'm excited to see that same approach to such a cool new product.

Have journalists ever controlled or written their own headlines? I don't think this is a change from any point in newspaper history.

The article says there's a linux/no-os option

This is super exciting and I can't wait to see the machines in the wild. Congrats on the launch!

If anyone only ever made decisions while they were perfectly fed and rested, this would be a sad, slow, boring world, because nothing would ever get done or decided. There is such a thing as urgency, and people do work beyond a 35 hour work week with evenly spaced meals, and especially during a global pandemic.

Specific to this instance, this FDA meeting was a formality -- they had already had the data for two weeks to review. The efficacy was well-known. They chose to take a 4-day holiday (Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday).

People don't all of a sudden sign house contracts. They've germinated the idea, spent weeks or months working through the pros and cons, talking to their life partners and family and agent and mortgage broker. The decision is made well in advance of the actual contract signing, and all the red lines are done before you get to the actual meeting to sign on the line. Similarly with the FDA regulators, they weren't meeting to review the data for the first time and come up with a decision on the spot. This was one final step in a very long process.

Yes, especially if you have an alternative place to park the money that earns N+1, where N is your interest. Anything above that is marginal gravy.

Exactly and makes total sense. Plus, not everyone has infinite income, so people are "rate limited" into choosing the 30 over a 15 or 10.

Opportunity cost of the higher monthly payment surely factors in?

But they're not priced the same. The MSRP is just the MSRP and does not include the incentives for EVs.

There are significant subsidies and schemes that the Norwegian government offers that reduces the total purchase price of the electric.

Are you saying that the mutation velocity is so unbelievable that it's clearly wrong? Or that it's so unprecedented that we should be worried?

It's super hard to put together because you have to first do a factor analysis to even decide what the component parts are. I've always brute forced it using the (admittedly difficult) Excel function and the underlying dataset is not pretty!
