I listen to art/programming streams on twitch

True, I save a lot of time when I can't read an article I clicked on because it's behind a paywall!

This was also discussed in a good book about sleep I read a few weeks ago: Why we sleep https://www.amazon.com/Why-We-Sleep-Unlocking-Dreams/dp/1501...

And if you want to learn more about why its important to sleep, you should read the book "why we sleep" https://www.amazon.com/Why-We-Sleep-Unlocking-Dreams/dp/1501... which is where I found this list.

I saw a great documentary on that topic called "Space Race" which showed the difference between the US and Soviet space program.

The combination: books tend to summarize better while videos explain better

While researching I also found this article: http://hatrabbits.com/why-sleep-deprivation-is-not-the-key-t...

It argues that you should sleep if you are going to do some analytical and logical thinking, and not sleep if you are going to come up with creative ideas. But some come up with creative ideas after sleeping (it was Elon Musk who said he came up with the best ideas in the shower after sleeping), so the area is confusing.

Go to https://www.kaggle.com/, pick a project, and apply all algorithms to the problem to see which one is the best.

Find a side project! I felt the same and decided to write a book and make a few games and other applications. I've never felt stuck since I began those projects.

Full story: I published it before Ashlee published his, and I haven't read that one so I don't know what the difference is. But someone at Reddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/elonmusk/comments/48mdf4/ive_writte...) told me:

"Interestingly, as I was reading the Ashlee Vance book, I actually had to flip back to yours in order to fill in gaps that Vance had left behind. I also enjoyed the extra stories that you placed in the book - the Winston Churchill story comes to mind."

But it didn't sell that well because marketing is difficult even though it got good grades 4/5 at Goodreads and a lot of upvotes when I posted the first version here (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6256959).

So I thought why not give it away for free because I think what Elon is doing is important and selling a few copies a month is not making me happier anyway.

...or you could do an Albert Einstein, who worked as a patent officer. He could finish the job in 2 hours and spend the next 6 hours working on his theories.

But they would have sold even more if they ignored the X and prioritized 3 which is the ultimate goal because they need the money

Are we sure that he didn't leak anything else to the Russians?

I've read 33 books so I'm not going to publish the list here, but i blogged about it: http://blog.habrador.com/2015/12/books-ive-read-in-2015.html

The books I liked the most were:

- The Unthinkable: Who Survives When Disaster Strikes - and Why

- On Intelligence

- The Martian

- The Innovators: How a Group of Hackers, Geniuses and Geeks Created the Digital Revolution

- Einstein: His Life and Universe

- Alan Turing: The Enigma

- Neuroscience for Dummies

- Thunder Run - (which is about the battle of Baghdad in 2003)

If anyone is interested in learning more, I've found a free online-course called "Programming a Robotic Car" (https://www.udacity.com/course/artificial-intelligence-for-r...)

The lecturer is the same guy behind the Stanley car that won the DARPA challenge a few years ago (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DARPA_Grand_Challenge)

Didn't a Russian rocket with supplies to ISS explode not long ago?

Edit: One exploded in May: http://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2015/05/soyuz-2-1a-third-stag... It seems like they are going to launch again with supplies to ISS in July

No, Saab Group sold Saab Automobile to GM in 2000

The Tesla Factory is the NUMMI plant, which I believe was the first factory outside of Japan that began to use Lean. The manager of Tesla's factory is Gilbert Passin who is a "Toyota Manufacturing Expert" according to: http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20100203005622/en/Tesl...

And this is a great talk by the creator of Stanley: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDqzyd7fDRc

I also liked this documentary "Forest Man" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkZDSqyE1do

"Since the 1970's Majuli islander Jadav Payeng has been planting trees in order to save his island. To date he has single handedly planted a forest larger than Central Park NYC. His forest has transformed what was once a barren wasteland, into a lush oasis. "

Avoid sqrt (you can always use "x^2 < 2^2", instead of "sqrt(x^2) < 2")

2020 is the "when" according to Elon Musk, so it's a good idea to begin before 2020 as it takes a few years to build up a car company.

How do you define a co-founder? Tesla was just an empty shell before Musk and JB arrived, so I think they are co-founders of Tesla, but not the only co-founders.

I think that the amateur engineer would have explained by now that it was his sub...

Thank you!

Speaking of rocket anomalies - This is a video of the Chinese rocket that's considered to be the worst rocket accident ever (counting human losses)
