My company has done 6 layoffs in the past 18 months, all because of a bad bet the previous CEO made. It’s amazing how one person can tank a company, cost 100s of people their livelihoods, and walk away with a golden parachute and a new job of equal level at another larger company.

When they came out

Mine is that all of the Matrix films are very overrated.

I am also confused. I can see Apple getting sued for this, but I have multiple app stores on my Android phone.

I’d love to see them make the books into a series of movies like with Sharpe or Hornblower.

They are just racists with a Bible in their hand.

I grew up in churches around religious people, you just described 99% of “Christians” in the American South.

If that’s the case, they should also block Gmail.

I’ve been in two, and both of them were this way. Tossed most of us under the bus to protect a small group of older employees. We definitely need more unionization, but we also need to weed out the unions that are counterproductive.

To be fair, in Florida at least it referred primarily to the whips used to drive cattle, not anything slavery related.

It’s definitely not just Renault, I’ve been asked in the past with my other cars. Might have just gotten lucky so far.

They haven’t asked me about mine yet. I’ve been a bit surprised.

Exactly. I’ve loved mine, only maintenance has been updates for the software, and occasional tire rotations.

I’m shocked. This definitely wasn’t predicted by literally everyone.

Yep. I stop for 20 or so minutes every 200 or so miles, and honestly I’m stretching it to go that long because my wife and kid want to stop even more often. I spend basically 0 extra time road tripping in my EV unless it’s a holiday weekend and the charger is packed.

He chose a fairly slow charging CCS car vs a Tesla. That video was super slanted.

It’s very overrated, and devs out there, if you are using it, the rest of us can tell, and not in a good way.

Edit: Some of you guys are really butthurt, and it’s fairly amusing. I’m sure the guys like you I work with who produce unusable code would also be butthurt if I said that to them.

Shame is an artificial construct that I am choosing not to opt into. Thanks for letting us know that sponsorblock is in, I’m turning it on now.

Ioniq 5 are great cars, and I believe still have charging incentives.

Edmunds has a section of their site devoted to EVs:

And some lists of what they consider the best ones (this is obviously subjective:

EV competition is here. There are tons of models now, and the Ioniq 5, for example, was rated much higher by many reviewers than Tesla models last year.
