  • As someone who used gradle then didn’t for a few years and looked back it, damn did they absolutely butcher the whole thing, not to mention now with the dual kotlin/groovy stuff the documentation is incomprehensible and achieving something that was easy as fuck in groovy like copying some files is a nightmare in kotlin.

    The parallel builds seems to be almost entirely gone, de dependency management got an even weirder file format. I have no idea what they are doing



  • As much as I hate elongated muskrat, this is Not a very good article, doesn’t really explore the reasons behind the fall and instead pushes a narrative.

    AFAIK there is an overall decrease in EV sales, Tesla is also announcing the new Model Y soon which is probably having a hold off effect for new buyers, either looking for the newer model or a good deal on the older model.

    And the viable alternatives from the competitors will also eat into their sales more than anything, Renault R5, new Fiat Panda, new Citroen EC3 that starts from like 20k.

    Those who wanted a tesla likely already have one, the rest are taking the alternatives, that are either smaller or better built.

    Tesla is going from the EV to get to a niche pick for people who like tech and fast acceleration over comfort, affordability.

    Instead of taking out the lump sum, you can have it paid in installments, they probably asked for lump sum, thus they get a much lower value.

    Then you can do the math of whether or not it’s worth it to receive monthly payment or taking out the lump sum, paying off all your debts, then putting it into S&P 500 and drawing down 4% a year and never run out of money.

    At 400 million, that’s what, 16 million a year? Never have to work again a day in their life, can spend 365 days a week in a 5- star hotel at a 1000-2000 dollar a night a 250 thousand car every year and haven’t even spent 1/16 of his yearly liquidation.



  • What a hyperbole, you clearly haven’t seen horrible movies if you think BvS is one, especially the extended cut, you can disagree with it’s direction but it’s in no way a horrible movie, Suicide Squad is a horrible movie, Star Wars episode 9 is a horrible movie.

    99% of Asylum stuff are horrible movies.

    BvS is just a meh movie, but then for me, so is most of the MCU, watch one time, then forget about it.

    Episode 9 and GoT season 8 (well season 5-8 in hindsight)makes me actively mad when thinking about them, those are horrible pieces of media
