Hopefully they increased the size of the fleet to coincide with this. The wait times in Phoenix have been 30+ minutes in my experience. But the experience was much better than any standard Uber I’ve been in.

Yup, reuse/reduce is already built into the brand. I see this as chasing a PR headline that wasn’t necessary for the company.

Is this CGI? The shadows and movements of the block pieces don't seem real at all. Almost like they're from the PS3 tech demo era.

Musk already has Water Isaacson following him around for a biography. Cant wait to read how Musk is earth’s savior and inventor of everything.

This is the same company that had (still has?) “the vault” for decades to create an artificial demand / fervor when things do come out.

Thanks for link. It’s definitely an incredible story. Going from nothing to best selling car within a couple years.

Best selling non-pickup in US is a pretty broad category. Do you mean the “high end luxury” segment or a more narrow EV segment? I have a hard time believing Tesla is outselling Toyota and Hyundai

"and she is now SMTS in 2 years" implies this person got a promotion every year.. At Salesforce's development pace I somehow doubt this person made such an impact to go straight to a senior position. Especially during a period of hiring freezes, promotion freezes, and squeezing profit margins.

Mike is going to be shocked when he learns the majority of GM's software talent are nearing retirement or are fresh out of college with barely any background in programming. The company isn't the best at enticing and retaining software talent.

I don't understand the obsession with LaTeX. Nobody realistically would care if you coded your resume in LaTeX because it's such a small "project" (a la "hello world") and there's nearly no real-world applications for that. Word templates work just fine and can be exported to PDF when needed.

I think GMs backs are against the wall here. GMs margins are already so thin on most of that inventory (aside from top trims of trucks) that they’d be basically paying customers to take the cars off the lot. On top of that they lose a bunch of money on warranty claims and have no sustainable subscription models currently. GMs strategy is basically to cut off their nose to spite their face.

They did this pay cut on top of a layoff
