  • Third, Musk deflects from accusations he’s a Nazi (“that’s a crazy thing to say”) but he never responds by saying “What Hitler did was horrible and I’m not a Nazi and detest their ideology” which is what someone would say if not a Nazi.

    This is the most important point, IMO. Fascists who want mainstream acceptance know not to have swastika tattoos and not to openly say they love Hitler. They will always try to have some plausible deniability. Don’t get dragged into their bullshit arguments. There’s no point in debating whether the nazi salute was some other motion that was misinterpreted. Even if it was, the first thing a non-nazi would do would be to clarify that they are not a nazi and don’t want nazis to think they’re their allies. Even if Musk had completely inadvertently stumbled upon the love and support of the nazis via a series of misunderstandings (lol), at this point in time he is deliberately choosing to be part of them.

    Here is Musk at 3:08:01 saying he’s not a nazi… and then going on to say you’re not a nazi unless you’re literally invading Poland and doing the holocaust. That is literally the only objectionable thing about the nazis. Not their “fashion sense or mannerisms”. Yes that was a direct quote. There is really only one type of person that would not mention as objectionable the nazi ideology or all the acts of violence that are not at the same scale as the holocaust.




  • I agree with you that the one liner isn’t a good example, but I do prefer the “left to right” syntax shown in the article. My brain just really likes getting the information in this order: “Iterate over Collection, and for each object do Operation(object)”.

    The cost of writing member functions for each class is a valid concern. I’m really interested in the concept of uniform function call syntax for this reason, though I haven’t played around with a language that has it to get a feeling of what its downsides might be.






  • The article kind of fumbles the wording and creates confusion. There are, however, some passages that indicate to me that the actual data was recovered. All of the following are taking about the NAND flash memory.

    The engineers quickly found that all the data was there despite Tesla’s previous claims.

    Now, the plaintiffs had access to everything.

    Moore was astonished by all the data found through cloning the Autopilot ECU:

    “For an engineer like me, the data out of those computers was a treasure‑trove of how this crash happened.”

    On top of all the data being so much more helpful, Moore found unallocated space and metadata for snapshot_collision_airbag‑deployment.tar’, including its SHA‑1 checksum and the exact server path.

    It seems that maybe the .tar file itself was not recovered, but all the data about the crash was still there.







  • <package>.install scripts which don’t have to be explicitly mentioned in the PKGBUILD if it shares the same name as the package.

    Can you show a reproducible example of this? I couldn’t get a <package>.install included in a test package I made without explicitly adding it as install=<package>.install.

    Most people claim they read the PKGBUILD (which I don’t believe tbh)

    If you don’t trust people to read PKGBUILD’s I’m curious which form of software installation (outside of official repositories) you find safe.
