My opinion of @elonmusk
I like his cars (I own a 2015 S, and 2023 S), his rockets, his solar energy systems, and his satellite communication system.
I also like his positions on open source and patents.

But I very much disagree with him on a number of issues.

I disagree with how he treats his scientists.
Technology/product development may not need openness and publications to advance, but forward-looking *research* sure does, whether it's in AI, neural interfaces, material science, or whatever.
Secrecy hampers progress and discourages talents from joining the effort.

I also disagree with the hype. I mean, expressing an ambitious vision for the future is great.
But telling the public blatantly false prediction ("AGI next year", "1 million robotaxis by 2020", "AGI will kill us all, let'spause",...) is very counterproductive (also illegal in some cases).

More importantly, I think his public positions on many political issues, journalism, the media and the press, and academia, are not just wrong but dangerous for democracy, civilization, and human wellfare.
Say what you want about "traditional media" but you can't really have reliable information without professional journalists working for a free and diverse press. Democracy can't exist without it, which is why only authoritarian ennemies of democracy rail against the media.

Finally he doesn't seem to hesitate to disseminate batshit-crazy conspiracy theories as long as they serve his interests (e.g. boosting "PizzaGate", "illegal immigrants corrupt elections in the US", "person X is a pedo",...).
One would expect a technological visionary to be a rationalist. Rationalism doesn't work without Truth.

This has become particularly concerning since he bought himself a platform to disseminate his dangerous political opinions, conspiracy theories, and hype.
He has been quite naïve about the difficulties of running a social network and the (legal) necessity of doing content moderation. One can claim to be a 1st Amendment absolutist, but a lot of content *must* be taken down by law, e.g. terrorist propaganda, child exploitation, blatant hate speech (in the EU and other regions).
Then, there is dangerous disinformation that puts public health in danger or corrupts the democratic process. You have to moderate that too.
Content moderation is a complicated problem whose best answer is not an attitude of total laissez-faire but a complex trade-off.

@WallStreetSilv False dichotomy, my friend.

@engineers_feed Depends if the amounts are meant as per year or per month. If per year => both options get 800$ more per year, option 2 starts at $4200 instead of $4000 so is $200 better per year.
If meant as monthly wages: option 1 is WAY better, both yearly salary and yearly increase

@engineers_feed I found a way to calculate it in my head without a calculator. The triangles of the side have area A= (10+5)*5/2=75/2,its diagonal is d= 5*sqrt(10), the side of the blue square is twice the length of the height of the triangles, so it's area is (2*A/d) ^2 = (30/sqrt(10))^2 = 90

@elonmusk @DrEliDavid 1. No, not anymore. This article is over a year ago.

2. It was meant to protect the staff from covid, not the patient

Deutschland hat eine Zukunft, wenn 3 Dinge gelingen: 1) Massivausbau Erneuerbare, 2) Neustart Digitalisierung und 3) massive Einwanderung von Fachkräften oder Fachkraftpotential. Fossilpolitik, Datenschutzsmaximalismus und Fremdenhass stehen dagegen https://t.co/eOStfQtA7Z

@Karl_Lauterbach Ihr Argumentationsstil hat mir wirklich sehr gefallen. Sie sind im Gegensatz zu anderen nie ad hominem geworden und haben stets ruhig und Inhaltsbetont geantwortet.

COVID: summary of lab-origin hypothesis:

1) Pandemic caused by bat SARS-like coronavirus emerged in Wuhan--city 1,000 km from nearest wild bats with SARS-CoV-2-like coronaviruses, but that contains labs conducting world's largest research program on bat SARS-like coronaviruses.

@frederic_forkel @PdH_Bayern Achso, dass mit der Anmeldung hatte ich übersehen! Ich freue mich schon aufs nächste Mal, gute Besserung euch allen!

@ChatGPTBot hi, this is a test. Do you know Minecraft?

[JL2579 @JL2579]

@omyfi @Dinnerbone You know that in Sweden, as in most European countries, for the first few weeks the employer has to pay you if you are sick and afterwards there is a health insurance that pays you a portion of that amount while you can still be employed?

[JL2579 @JL2579]

@docm77 Yes I will! I am really excited about seeing you guys all again!

[JL2579 @JL2579]

@fitterhappierAJ Looking at conditional probabilities and for how long it has been around , it's highly likely that it has something to do with covid, which means it's either B or C. I haven't followed up much yet - is there any link to more severe covid infections or similar known?

[JL2579 @JL2579]

@fitterhappierAJ Are you already certain about the correct answer or are you trying to crowdsource opinions?
