Now let's see Facebook's, and Youtube's, and TicToc's, yes?

"including the fact that the researchers performed a statistical analysis of an observational study", so pretty much nonsense.
That said, there is clear evidence that moderate exercise and a few minutes of vigorous exercise daily increases longevity and significantly decreases all cause mortality.
Ask your favorite LLM: "what are 5 of the best studies on moderate exercise combined with a few minutes of vigorous exercise and VO2max reducing all cause mortality"
Yes. Came here to say that. And not the first time either.
Ask your favorite LLM: "how many times have scientists claimed to have make a cell from scratch?"

Epic Games has relied on Perforce (Helix Core) for source control and change management for over 20 years, making it the absolute backbone of their internal development workflows and Unreal Engine architecture.Epic made the transition to Perforce in the early to mid-2000s, right around the time they were developing early iterations of Gears of War and transitioning the original Unreal Engine. Since then, the platform has grown to handle terabytes of source files, binary assets, and the source code for the engine itself.Key reasons Epic has stuck with Perforce for decades include:Binary Asset Management: Games require massive amounts of unmergeable binary files (textures, 3D models, audio), which legacy distributed systems like Git struggle to handle gracefully without extensive add-ons like Git LFS.Exclusive File Locking: Perforce allows for native, granular file locking. This prevents artists and level designers from overwriting each other’s changes in dense, unmergeable files (like
Perforce does all of that (and provides Git compatibility) but is not open source. In fact Epic games uses Perforce extensively, so this is there way of getting out from under the licensing fees.

How much federal income tax do you pay per year? Take that number and multiply by 13% and divide by 12. That's how much you are paying into the military-industrial complex per month. For most employed Americans that's at least $200 per month, $2400.00 per year.
Tesla One (originally Warp Drive) does it all, 100% developed in-house. So they're saying all of India's giant IT houses couldn't do what Tesla did internally? Yet another moat of Tesla's that few people understand. Ask Grok about it.

There's always at least 1 hydrogen valve issue. Perhaps they should redesign their valves?
Exactly. All fossil fuel electricity generating plants are stranded assets. It is now less expensive to build out a brand new solar + battery plant than it is to simply continue operating an *existing* fossil fuel based plant. Solar is now even cheaper than wind turbine + battery.
China is bringing 5GW of solar online per week. That's 2.5 Hoover dams (at its peak) per week. China now generates twice us much electricity as the US of A.
That is all.
"Tesla's self-driving system is quick-and-dirty, in comparison to those used by Waymo"
Nothing could be further from the truth. "quick-and-dirty"?!
Let's see how things go in Austin in June.
Book mark this and we'll revisit in 3 years.
You haven't tried Tesla's FSD lately have you?
"There's a reason robotaxis are only available in urban areas."
Yes, the current generation of robotaxis built on 1990's technology are all geo-fenced and using fussy and error prone lidar. Tesla's can drive anywhere. Even where they're not yet legal.

And lots of other examples.
Bonus. People, even the experts and market specialists, always underestimate the speed of disruptive change. This blogger mentions Tony Seba, worth looking up on Youtube.

Two very different markets with different market drivers (pardon the pun).
"On the 10 year prediction of widespread driverless ride share cars, color me skeptical."
Less than 10 years. I'll bet you a beer.
