I personally wouldn’t put much weight behind what is in 10-Ks. These can often be written by the same law firms for multiple businesses using largely the same language. Also, as others have pointed out, the risk section 1a on 10-Ks are more of a CYA than anything else. For what it is worth i think Meta even lists Zucks hobbies(aviation, surfing etc.) as a risk.

Re:The Toyota Prius Transformed the Auto Industry
on Saturday January 18, 2025 @10:09AM (#42748908)
I love my Prius. What amazes me about the car is how “idiot-proof” or “smart” it is. I try my best to hypermile and squeeze out every last MPG, while my wife doesn’t make any effort to baby it—and yet, we both consistently get about 57 MPG combined. The car adapts to how you drive it, which is really impressive.
I think Toyota deserves as much credit as Apple for its “it just works” ethos. The way they design the technology to be seamless and work so well behind the scenes is remarkable. Additionally, many Toyota mechanics consider the Prius to be the most reliable car Toyota makes. This often surprises people because of the perceived complexity of hybrids, but in reality, they are elegantly engineered and surprisingly simple.

Update: NORAD and U.S. Northern Command confirmed the TFR put in place and later rescinded over Havre, Montana was in response to a "radar anomaly" that it sent fighter aircraft to investigate. Those aircraft did not identify any object to correlate to the radar hits, and NORAD is still monitoring the situation.

From the tweet: "I am in direct contact with NORCOM and monitoring the latest issue over Havre and the northern border. Airspace is closed due to an object that could interfere with commercial air traffic — the DOD will resume efforts to observe and ground the object in the morning."
Seems like they are waiting to shoot it down in the morning.

Road Guy Rob - Covers transportation topics, mainly the engineering behind roads.
Mentour Pilot - Aviation related but I think lessons that can be applied to any field
Peter Dibble - Covers a wide range of historical engineering projects
Bobby Broccoli - A Jon Bois expect instead of sports for academia (this guy makes really high quality videos)

To me it's more the topics he's covering that are clickbaity, I personally can live with the titles but I feel like Veritasium intentionally find topics that have some controversy(or fabricates some if they don't) like the physics debate one, and the "misconception" about electricity one. Instead of focusing on teaching and explain practically how things work in our world he chooses examples that are very abstract and frankly not relevant to most viewers. I feel like it's the Mr. Beast model of doing youtube and one that I'm not a fan of. This combined with the issues other commenters have noted about getting things wrong which in itself if fine but when others have called him out on it he hasn't handled the feedback well. I only noticed this trend the past few years, but really turns me off.
