We always plug ours in the garage and usually get all the errands done without the gas engine running.
I remember looking at the engine hours vs driving hours and it was always half or less.
Exactly! Just look at what China is doing with solar and wind. They will soon be energy independent.
Meanwhile Trump will have more coal than he knows what to do with while places like California (4th largest economy in the world) live on renewables.
I have a Porsche Taycan and I don't know anyone with one that likes the fake exhaust sound. The first thing people do is turn that crap off.
If corporate America has it's way, there won't be any pesky "workers" to worry about soon.
Sigh...
I'm a windows user and always have turned off OneDrive.
There are other very secure platforms for this that don't have the bias that a Microsoft operation will have.
Good one!
In the EU, most people don't pay health insurance, don't worry about being left homeless, pay exactly what the price of lunch is (no tipping) enjoy their lives without feeling like they need to constantly work, work, work. Oh and there's a distinct lack of guns everywhere.
OTOH, the US innovates better but the cost is the US debt which is like 95% of GDP compared to 86% of GDP for the EU.
The US debt was a lot lower than the EU until 2008 when US politicians found out they could fund almost anything by pushing the debt into the future.
I am always flabbergasted when peeps in the US think they have a better standard of living.
How long until people quit learning programming languages?
I started using AI coding assistants last year. Because of this, I haven't had to write any actual code since then but I've made huge progress with my projects.
The beauty of AI coding is you leave room in your brain for conceptual ideas instead of volumes of syntax.
I think these tests will need to change to find the students who can compete while using AI assistants.
Such optimism!
The entire economic system was predicated on gainful employment and continued expansion.
Now we're looking at a huge reduction in employment and all the profits of AI going to the billionaires.
This will not end well.
The irony is anyone can go to something like Suno and make their own music. I have a nice playlist on my phone with AI created songs that I prompted.
I'm not sure why, but some of these songs are really, really well made and very compelling to listen to.
It's a paradigm shift and the world is not ready.
Exactly! The court slapping a company with a large lawsuit judgement is what gets things fixed.
Or at the very least smart glasses that autofocus.
Presbyopia is a bitch.
Sadly true. I also left.
Social media platforms only serve those who like to suck the oxygen out of the room.
There is absolutely no critical thinking going on there.
There's got to be more to life than compile-and-go.
