For those that have had enough of the Elon Musk worship online.
No flaming, baiting, etc. This community is intended for those opposed to the influx of Elon Musk-related advertising online. Coming here to defend Musk or his companies will not get you banned, but it likely will result in downvotes. Please use the reporting feature if you see a rule violation.
Opinions from all sides of the political spectrum are welcome here. However, we kindly ask that off-topic political discussion be kept to a minimum, so as to focus on the goal of this sub. This community is minimally moderated, so discussion and the power of upvotes/downvotes are allowed, provided lemmy.world rules are not broken.
Post links to instances of obvious Elon Musk fanboy brigading in default subreddits, lemmy/kbin communities/instances, astroturfing from Tesla/SpaceX/etc., or any articles critical of Musk, his ideas, unrealistic promises and timelines, or the working conditions at his companies.
Tesla-specific discussion can be posted here as well as our sister community /c/RealTesla.

So spend a chunk of money to hire a team to upgrade the database that's working to one that's programmed in a new language, ~~might~~ will have errors, then have to fix those errors, and you'd also have to train the existing team or replace them with someone who knows how to use and maintain the new database. You'd potentially want to upgrade or change the hardware too from an old mainframe computer unless you want to only sidegrade to like C-90 since your old IBM computer won't support newer compilers. In the meanwhile there's a HUGE risk of breaking something or even just not getting anything accomplished
It's definitely an objective that's good but if you're chasing efficiency and cutbacks, it's the opposite of what you'd want to do.
