If two things lead to the same result (in this example, neither asking the questions nor not asking the questions get us closer to the answer), then isn’t the lesser effort option optimal?

No1@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Tesla's reputation slumps as GM, Ford climb - Tesla ranked 62nd by reputation among the 100 most visible brands, tumbling from 12th last year and 8th in 2021.English127·1 year agoThis is true but misleading. When Musk invested in Tesla and became chairman of the board, they hadn’t even begun development on a vehicle. They just had an idea and had talked with Lotus. There’s plenty to dislike about Musk. You don’t need to mislead.
No1@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Car dealers say they can’t sell EVs, tell Biden to slow their rolloutEnglish125·1 year agoYeah, someone from the UK lecturing Americans on how EV infrastructure is just fine is rich. There are EVs capable of getting them pretty much anywhere in their country on a single charge. Meanwhile, I wouldn’t be able to visit my parents two states away without needing to charge halfway through. And the options if you have a family are even fewer and more expensive. There are six of us in our household. Which EV should we drop 6 figures on to get us and our luggage 600 miles away for the holidays?
Every time I leave my house, I see dozens of Teslas driving around. If they’re not profitable, then they’re horrifically bad at making money. They’re ubiquitous. Pretty impressive market penetration for a business run by people who don’t know what they’re doing.
