A lot of people don’t realize how good 1991 Washington was because they were sort of one-year wonders. But yes, DVOA has them as the best team ever including playoffs. (2007 Patriots ahead of them for regular season only, 1985 Bears third.)
@hamids It is not a tiny portion. They paid aapl $20b to be the default search and received $67b in revenue. It’s about 20% of their total annual revenue
I asked @grok to analyze the last 1,000 posts from Elon Musk for truth and veracity. More than half of what Elon posts on X is false or misleading, while most of the "true" posts are simply updates about his companies.
@hamids I am not worried about TSLA, their cars will never be autonomous without a supervising driver. Waymo is definitely a concern. In Phx, they operate everywhere without having to pay for a driver. Margins have to be increasing as they build their fleet to other cities.
Phoenix, Arizona is arguably facing one of the most extraordinary heatwaves ever recorded in American history, both in terms of duration and intensity. Yesterday marked the 20th CONSECUTIVE day on which the city either tied or set a record high temperature. Nearly *three straight weeks* of record-breaking temperatures. Truly mind-blowing. This is the longest such streak for any weather station in the U.S., pulverizing the previous all-time record of 14 consecutive days set in Burlington, Iowa in 1936. And even among all global stations with 50+ years of data, it would be hard to find anything comparable. Let's also recall that Phoenix set two monthly records within a span of just 4 days, which is insane (117°F on September 28, previous September monthly heat record was 108°F set in 1992 and 113°F on October 1, previous October monthly heat record was 107°F set in 1980 and 2020). Records in Phoenix date back to 1895.
@hamids I can’t tell if the cash burn is slowing down. At $1b a qtr they will run out in two years without continuing to raise cash. “It has burned through about half of its $18 billion cash pile. Shares are down some 70% since it raised $12 billion in a 2021 initial public offering.���
