I’m not planning on being back in until September. Part of that is that they’re completely remodeling the office space to shrink the footprint by about 50%, and half the office-types going forward will be half on-site, half work from home.

Story is fine.

If they could, they’d be trying to anyways. (Mostly) anyone can buy an ARM license. And yet...Qualcomm still reigns supreme. They just make better chips. Similarly, the OS for anything other than Apple is a brand-specific spin on Android. If they want to compete with the flagships, they need Qualcomm. Even Samsung…

Nah, that'd mean they'd have to learn how to form sheetmetal and paint it.

Since I started working from home? About as often as I need to get gas for the mower/snowblower.

I’ve got those three and the chain saw. I’ll use my current lawn mower until it dies and then go battery, mostly because I hate small carbs. I’m up to a 5Ah and 2 2.5 Ah batteries now, would get another one with the mower because those won’t be enough for my lawn.

I'm pretty sure I could find a union leader to argue that there should be a union member in every bathroom stall to make sure people are wiping correctly.

Executive compensation is by contract. They don’t write stuff like this into the contract. Also, executives largely get paid by shareholders, not from the company’s revenue stream.

This company made a half billion in profits. Almost all of that went to paying their investors dividends and ultimately, not properly securing what was most important to them.

Or every high ranking executive in the company to retire. I'm assuming it's really, "give us a 10 year plan and any year you don't execute, someone gets fired."

So you’re just ignoring where I said well to wheel, then.

50% bump in efficiency helps. Not sure how current that number is, but it should still be a significant reduction for use cases where full electric isn’t viable.

Because you use significantly less? Fuel cells are much more efficient than ICE, well to wheel. So not a solution, but at least a stopgap.

The somewhat funny thing is the Guardian article mentions a UBS analysis that says cost parity is 2024. Which, ok - I’m not really poking at the date itself, just the quality of journalism. I guess I’m expecting too much of Jalopnik writers to do anything other than read some other news article, summarize it a little,…

Right, but even TSMC isn’t keeping pace with Moore’s Law. Ignore the process names, those are just marketing terms at this point. Transistor density hasn’t been doubling every two years for quite some time, even before Intel started stumbling.

A. Statistics would tell you that there is a range of potential dates that a milestone would be hit given a certain set of assumptions.

It’s too close to what a stan would actually say to be sarcasm...right?
