Engineering car safety is notoriously hard. Almost every design choice is a compromise of one thing or another

Crumple zones make cars a lot safer without adding significant weight and reducing fuel economy. It means, though, that even minor collisions can total a vehicle, or cost multiple thousands of dollars to fix.

The most dangerous accident for a car is a rollover. One of the reasons is the roof can cave in and hit your head, injuring or killing you. One way to fix this is to reinforce the roof, which adds weight high on the chassis, and makes rollover accidents more likely, increasing the likelihood of other injuries from rollovers.

Lastly, you have legal pressures complicating everything. If you go ahead and reinforce the roof, you'll be sued for increasing the likelihood of rollovers. If you reduce reinforcement and the roof caves in, you'll be sued for that.

It still is, for successful companies, and when it's not, you go work for Sony or Dreamworks :)

This is the underlying problem. The CEOs don't trust their own company. When the studio was churning out hits in the 1990s, the should have thrown everything they had at the studio team. Instead they cut the budgets and strangled wages, so half the people went to work for Dreamworks and Sony. Same thing happened with Pixar. Brad Bird (The Iron Giant, The Incredibles, Ratatouille, etc...) wanted to direct a live-action movie. Disney eventually nixed the project, so he left for a few years.

If you trust the people working for you, you pay them well and fund their projects. If you don't trust them, you keep buying other companies hoping to fill in the creative void.

This is factory zero, a low volume plant that makes a few electric trucks and SUVs. Even with the layoffs, it has around 2,500 employees, which is a lot compared to some other plants. The Orion general assembly plant only has a thousand, as does Bowling Green.

Did it on my home LAN. It's not too hard on a Synology router. The only thing allowed through is a sprinkler controller's web interface facing inwards. The Synology also has a halfway decent IDS that looks for weird outgoing traffic.

charging works fine.

The restrictions are about the same as NYC and for the same reasons. DC is covered by the flight paths for two extremely busy airports, along with all the random military aircraft flying around DC in particular. Our main airport is next to a small suburban town, and you can't fly a drone there, either.

Also, just talking about the US, there's UL, ANSI and NSF. Some of their self-imposed regulations become building codes, NIST and OSHA standards.

The real clickbait headline would be that AI and Data Centers are leading to declining fertility rates.

Every couple I know whom don't have kids just don't want to have kids. It's not phones or money or socioeconomic factors or social media. They just don't want kids.

I didn't talk about AI at all. I'm talking about the underlying issues potentially causing the NHS's capacity issues. However, I see an issue in your reasoning:

What is the sunk cost? You rent AI services. There is a nominal cost in integrating it into some workflow, but the main cost are purchasing the service as needed.

Britain's population increased from 56 million to about 60 million between 1970 and 2005, at a rate of about 114,000 per year. It increased from 60 million to 68 million between 2005 and 2020. at a rate of 500,000 per year. That might have something to do with NHS staffing and budgetary issues.

Technically they did.

I have the official developer documentation from NeXT. Sometimes it's NeXTSTEP and sometimes it's NEXTSTEP. I think NEXTSTEP is the newer marque, but both are correct, as NeXT themselves used both.
