>The unemployment rate is very low but wages aren't rising.
...yet.
Wages are a driver of inflation, which will rear its head as we reach late cycle. Then we blow up and start over. This is the way of the world.

I think this demonstrates how hard "titles" are, because a "business analyst", in the sense that I learned, is not at all like a data scientist (or data analyst):
"Business Analysis'' is a research discipline of identifying business needs and determining solutions to business problems. Solutions often include a software-systems development component, but may also consist of process improvement, organizational change or strategic planning and policy development."
Most BA work I've done involved translating business requirements into technical or software requirements.
In other words, who knows...
I suppose it depends on what you mean by "can". Much like whiteboard interviewing, I bet I can't sit down today and implement a regression from scratch, because I'm out of practice. I have had no need to retain that information; there are tools that do it for me.
Could I do it quickly with a stats 101 textbook in my lap (or 10 minutes of Googling)? Absolutely.
Then why are so many deliveries being canceled/postponed for quality issues? Their quality control, from what I read, is horrible.
How do you expect them to be "world leaders" in manufacturing technology when they have to rework so many cars? Remember, the narrative is that no one can do it as well as they can. Huge margins!
>who cares about the details of the manufacturing process?
Yeah, who cars about the manufacturing process when your whole business is manufacturing...
It may be new territory for you, but I can assure you that grown adults have been smoking pot for a long time, and understand the psychological effects and their limits.
Don't worry, this is just Tesla PR working overtime trying to mop up the latest folly. HackerNews is lapping it up, of course. Not everyone feels sorry for Elon Musk. He can quit at any time.
What happens if you bought calls for a price higher than $420? They are worthless. You don't have to be a short-seller to have been burned by this.
So the short-sellers are Big Oil shills, but selling out to the Saudis is okay (if you ignore human rights atrocities and all the oil)?
Elon is Big Industry.
Have you ever stopped to wonder that maybe people "don't like him" because he's a jerk and his company loses vast amounts of money? Don't need a tinfoil hat.
You believe that? From the guy who would angrily call reporters if they didn't call him a Tesla founder (which he isn't)? He wants to give the reins up?
>The number of people who are capable of building and running companies like these is vanishingly small
Yeah, we never invented anything until Elon Musk came around. There aren't 10-20 car companies, run by CEOs you've never heard of, plugging away at EVs as we speak.
What, exactly, is "proven" about this model? It's food delivery. Smells like late stage bull market to me.
Oh brother. The high gross margins on beverages positively contribute to the net margins. The point is that most restaurants aren't crushing it, margins are thin, and a middle-man taking a cut doesn't help.

Meanwhile, they are still (for the most part) in business, decades later, while "cool" business models like MoviePass cost shareholders millions and blow out in less than a year.
Who should be learning from whom?
I'm far from an expert, but this being in the news has piqued my interest as well, and I haven't seen much that confirms it either:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5705608/
People hate Monsanto, and populism is rife, so the decision wasn't shocking. Amazing that Monsanto managed to sell to Bayer with these lawsuits on the horizon.
I think inhaling anything into your lungs will probably affect them negatively. But it wouldn't surprise me if vaping was healthier than LA (or Beijing) air. Everything in moderation.
Hypocrisy, pure and simple.
Go read how HackerNews reacted to the Wells Fargo scandal.
Oh, they're here, no doubt about it.
It's going to be 10 times funnier than the iamverysmart crowd here who told us we didn't like Theranos because it was run by a woman.
Why is he a saboteur re-branded a whistleblower, and not a whistleblower re-branded a saboteur? Because Elon said it?
Why on earth do you think the world is out to get Tesla? Because Elon said it?
HackerNews:
Wells Fargo presses sales people to fake sales: Send those executives to the guillotine! (this was literally said by a top comment on one of the threads).
Tesla presses sales people to fake numbers: Nothing to see here, standard operating procedure.
If/when these companies fold, I hope the rabid supporters are held to account.
Yes, its all a short seller conspiracy, not some terribly run company.
Nah,that could never happen....
Why do you think only one side is corrupt?
My god some of you people are you going to look foolish.
You are implying bias, where I see a troubled company.
Can you name another instance where the WSJ wrote negatively about a company and it turned out to be false? As a subscriber, why the sudden skepticism?
Yeah, and? Most people also find pickup trucks excessive. And yet, they are the most profitable vehicles on the planet. So much so that Tesla wants to make one. There's a whole world outside the urban bubble, for better or worse.
So you base this on, what, Elon's tweets?
Big tradeoff in batteries...expense, reliability, durability. Where are they?
Doesn't meet my requirements, unfortunately.
I need 2nd gen.
Exactly. Some stupid story that wasn't true. I rest my case.
