Great! I'm glad it works. I have tried it and have come off impressed. Why can't Tesla accept liability for accidents then and call this level 3? Also, look up the settlements for ASS

Sir, please make it easy to break the twitter/x moat. Why don't we have an app that just posts to all the socials like bluesky/mastodon/threads etc

OP also says "This would be a valid concern if..." so, no need to defend these poor massive businesses who also screwed us with shrinkflation for five years.

comment made me think! I'm old so this was true since youtube didn't get big until i was in my 30s, so maybe it is a good thing :)

I can go on Gemini, claude, mistral, (and even chatgpt) for free (even through a VPN), so they are definitely not profitable for me as they are not getting anything from me. are you saying subscriptions are subsidizing me?

Spitballing here, why not shred these clothes as filler for insulation instead of literally burning them? PFAS and fiber inconsistencies as these clothes are probably a hodgepodge of all sorts of chemicals, so they probably need to be characterized. I think chemical recycling is also being looked into.

I think looking at the top 5% of wealth, not just taxpayers, may open up the conversation on both sides

Agreed, I'd make the same argument as parent for a Harley. It's not my cup of tea, loud, impractical, and a gas guzzler, but it clearly appeals to a bunch of people. Give things a chance for goodness sake. Aptera never claimed you don't need to charge.

Oh wow thank you yes I did

But Anthropic is a French company isn’t that in the EU

I’ve been away from this space for about a year - is Claude still better at coding tasks?

My issue is more with the CDC. Are there state institutions that can take up the slack locally? Asking for a friend with kids who wants to move to a place with a lower risk of getting measles

If there is a new pandemic soon we will see it without any question. Hurricanes were redirected on a whim.

Agree with pausing hiring and causal expenditures. Why block external communication? What does that do

No they listened about TikTok

Truly sad that I believed you were being genuine for a second

What about Hyundai? They also went big on EVs and now are competing even in China

> I got into this profession simply because I could Ctrl-Z to the previous step much more easily than my then favourite chemical engineering goals.

That is interesting. Asking as a complete ignoramus - is there not a way to do this now? Like start off with a 100 of reagent and at every step use a bit and discard if wrong

Yeah agreed. Really a ton of kids with tablets everytime I go out for dinner

That sense to be possible thesis esp given a comment earlier about china effectively laundering some goods to countries with deficits to china

Really harsh calling it a useless degree (even though I don’t disagree) but expectations should be in order. Hell, even Harvard MBA is 200k+ in the hole, so without a plan afterwards it may not be the best choice.

If he wanted to work in academia I think it’s a very reasonable choice.

But is this per capita? GDP and population are not necessarily linear

That’s not gonna impress me either. There were zoox cars on Lombard st in sf I think. Windy streets are not the challenge. Putting your money where your mouth is - that’s the challenge.

Are you describing accelerationism?

Still, a success story in my eyes

No, you can. There is not another shape that fits.

Visiting a friend in nashville and just learned of a weird loophole called a horizontal property regime. She technically only owns the land under her home but the backyard and driveway is shared with her neighbor under a “HOA” with 50% ownership exactly and zero fees.

Apparently they are all over town since the 2010s instead of waiting to split a large lot into two.

What’s the reason for minimum set back rules? Is it just aesthetics

As a close follower of Casey, I have become disillusioned with the lack of progress in this space. Certainly solar is cheaper but his own company is very slow to scale up and ignores the logistical challenges of these huge endeavors. The salton sea lithium project should be a slam dunk but is very slow because building big things takes time.

Also, not everything he says is gospel

Is anyone working on autonomous busses or vans for public transport?
