Former Tesla president discloses the secret to scaling a company

techcrunch.com Tim De Chant 2025-07-27 00:00:00

Few companies have grown as quickly as Tesla, especially just before and after the company launched the Model 3, its first affordable EV. “We scaled Tesla in 30 months from $2 billion in revenue to $20 billion in revenue,” Jon McNeil, the former president of Tesla who is now co-founder and CEO of DVx Ventures, told the crowd at TechCrunch’s All Stage event in Boston. It wasn’t McNeil’s first time scaling companies, nor would it be his last. Previously, he founded six different companies, and a

Chinese Scientists Invent System for Extracting Oxygen, Water and Rocket Fuel From Moon Dust

futurism.com Unknown 2025-07-26 22:30:12

Chinese researchers say they've devised a new way to extract water from lunar soil and convert it into fuel. As detailed in a new paper published today in the journal Joule, the team found that their proposed "photothermal strategy" — essentially converting light into heat — could effectively convert carbon dioxide from extracted water into carbon monoxide, hydrogen, and oxygen gas, a "potential route for sustaining human life on the Moon and enabling long-term extraterrestrial exploration."

5 underrated Android features I use all the time, and you should too

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-07-26 23:00:59

Andy Walker / Android Authority Features like split-screen mode, Quick Share, and various battery optimizations are more or less common knowledge amongst Android users. But Google’s OS has so many features, it’s easy for some to fly under the radar — especially since they can be buried deep within the settings. A lot of the features I use regularly aren’t talked about as much as they should be, partly due to the fact not everyone is aware that they even exist. I want to change that by sharing

Think smartphone cameras have peaked? Here’s what’s still to come

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-07-27 00:00:54

Robert Triggs / Android Authority I’ve seen some absolutely phenomenal camera phones cross my desk this year. The extravagant Xiaomi 15 Ultra and more mainstream OnePlus 13, in particular, have upped the ante on the iPhone, Galaxy, and Pixel triopoly, providing avid photographers more choice than ever before. While some of their best bits will inevitably trickle down to more affordable price points, thereby introducing more consumers to these superb capabilities, there’s also a sense that we m

How the 'Minecraft' Score Became Big Business for Its Composer

news.ycombinator.com Kristin Robinson 2025-07-22 23:48:54

In 2009, in between full-time shifts at a local factory, then-19-year-old musician Daniel Rosenfeld composed a score for an independent video game. “It was just a side hustle, maybe not even that. It was a hobby, really,” explains Rosenfeld, who records under the name C418. The game, Minecraft, turned out to be successful beyond Rosenfeld’s wildest dreams. In 2014, Microsoft purchased Minecraft’s Swedish developer, Mojang Studios, for $2.5 billion, and through 2023, it had sold 300 million copi

In the mid-1990s you could create useful software without being an ace coder. You had Visual Basic, you had a rich ecosystem of components, you could wire them together to create apps, standing on the shoulders of the coders who built those components. If you’re younger than 45 you may not know what that was like, nor realize web components have never worked the same way.

I Get 5G on My Phone at Home, So Why Can't I Get 5G Home Internet? Here's What I Learned

If you can get 5G on your phone while at home, you should be able to get 5G internet at your house, right? Not exactly. 5G is no longer the shiny new thing, thanks to efforts from major carriers AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon, but 5G home internet service isn't strictly available at the same addresses as 5G cellular service. I ran into this when I switched my mobile carrier from AT&T cellular service to T-Mobile phone service. I was immediately impressed with the phone's 5G performance. However, ev

Amazon’s Fire Tablets, Tested, So You Don’t Have To (2025)

The Fire HD 10 is Amazon’s best tablet. The current model dates from 2023, which means it likely will get some kind of update in 2025, but we don't expect anything more than a processor and RAM upgrade. The current Octa-core processor is plenty fast enough for everyday tasks like web browsing and watching movies, and the 3-GB of RAM helps in browsing the web with many tabs.

The New York State Legislature has just passed a bill (S4091/A04873) that would lock New York City’s transit system in the past. This bill, which would require a conductor to be on board every train operated by New York City Transit, is the technological equivalent of requiring every elevator in the city to still be staffed by an elevator operator.
