I used to do surface modification for medical devices. In this field, you are trying to modify a metal surface to react with an organic compound and get it to stay on. When you are doing high resolution surface analysis, NOTHING is clean of organic residue. I really mean nothing. You have to plasma etch the surface even of a gold coupon to get it free of organic compounds. And guess what, if you work with silanes, you will find silanes everywhere. So no surprise to me that a lab studying grey goo finds grey goo everywhere.

(I needed to burn off some mod points lol)

here in SoCal you mostly see them wrapped. And some of those wraps are not bad looking. The wrap also helps with that SS problem of mega fingerprint magnet.

Or Fry's. Used to love going there.

Specifically I thought the Waymo app was on par with Uber app. And you don't have to tip (or get stressed because you forgot to tip.) Just used it last week in SF.

"I need to see all your records, including all wallet keys and login passwords"

Please. I am joking but if this actually happened it would be too funny.

Or "trust the science." lol

Science is a process, not a result.

WSJ tech reviewer, Nicole Nguyen, gave back to back passes on Duo and touchscreen MB Pro. She questioned costs vs. use cases for both. I've been WSJ subscriber for a long time, going back to Walt Mossberg, and I don't ever recall these kind of reviews. Normally they would get a "gee that's nice" (even when you knew there was an eyeroll behind it) for example when Joanna Stern was there. If I were Ternus I would be having some tense meetings with designs teams today.

Yeah. I like Rayban's wayfarer style, but meta Mark blew that up for me. gotta go get new frames now.

Picard was all class. Really sad to hear this news today. RIP Patrick Stewart.

This is a good point and pretty logical so why does market panic on this? Unfortunately, what will happen is Google finding ways to pile ads into the AI search model.

But it needs a throttle. A slightly fragile throttle so you don't lead-foot it all the time.

Populate those PowerPoints with metrics and charts. More numbers mean you understand it better.

Yes! so true. Even going into the hospital, you will see this posted on the entrance.

That people still want bread and circuses.

A lot of teasers and stories in the new. Someone is betting money on this.
