I feel like 2025 is just replaying all the apocalypse movies of my childhood. Terminator and now Jurassic Park. What could go wrong.

The headline should just have read âoeWaymo craps its pantsâ as Tesla gets ready to roll out robotaxis. Tesla can make 2000 robo taxis in a couple of hours. Waymo is already dead. It just hasnâ(TM)t figured it out yet.

Was waiting for the sheep to show up and start bleeting. You know it is possible in this world for some people to think someone is a bit of an idiot and simultaneously marvel at their technological achievements. You should try it some time. Itâ(TM)s amazing what happens when you donâ(TM)t rely on the internet to tell you what your opinion is.

So let me get this straight⦠We will have a global water shortage but also the sea is rising. If only there was a way to combine those two problems with a single solution. Maybe we could pipe water in all the pipes we use for oil and gas at the moment. I wonâ(TM)t be losing sleep over this one, pretty sure we might be able to figure it out.

and wasn't disappointed. When Elon said he was going to build the biggest rocket humans have ever made and then catch it with a pair of giant chopsticks, basically the entire worlds said it could not be done and it was all going to fail. Then he does possibly the greatest ever 'hold my beer' moment in human history and all those same people are back arguing over some other ridiculous tiny point or why some other facet of one of his businesses makes him a loser. FFS, can we just stand back for a minute and marvel at the technological achievement and engineering marvel that this man and his team of thousands of exceptional people have achieved today, without it being political or personal.

I guess that is why the cyber truck is the number one selling electric truck and number one selling vehicle over $100k in the US? How is that pump and dump. If you think Tesla is way behind Waymo you have no idea. Tesla fsd can go anywhere. Waymo can go anywhere where they have taught it to go. Also Waymo requires the installation of tens of thousands of dollars worth of complicated sensors. Teslas just use cameras and nothing else. There is a big difference. Also, Waymo has like a few hundred vehicles. Tesla has 2 million vehicles on the road today that with the flick of a switch can be added to its robo taxi fleet. Waymo is a dead man walking.

Imagine if every time a plane took off, it needed a launch license. Imagine if you needed to know what fuel tanker you were going to use 6 months in advance when you filed for your launch license and if you needed to change the tanker 9 days before that you would have to cancel your flights because the FAa couldnâ(TM)t get itself together in time.

What a sad outlook on life. There has literally never been a better time to be alive at any point in the entire history of humanity. I firmly believe fantastic things await our childrenâ(TM)s children and that the world will only continue to get better. Imagine if your grand parents thought that after living through the 2nd world war.

The article said the warm water is coming from geothermal activity meaning that the term âreversibleâ(TM) is moot. In other words, me crushing my jeep and buying. Tesla is not going to stop this. Unless we can figure out how to stop geothermal activity miles underground on a massive scale. This is gonna happen and there is nothing any of us can do about it.

We cannot accurately model what happens to a cup of coffee when you pour milk into. Let alone an entire ocean with millions more variables. The reality is that if any of the earths systems were as volatile and unstable as a lot of these models seem to predict, life would have been wiped out on earth millions of years ago.

Has anyone actually asked these hypothetical woman that are âmissing outâ(TM) whether they actually want to work in IT? Has anyone ever met a woman that really wishes they could work in IT but are somehow being prevented. The reality is that sitting in a cubicle writing code for 12 hours with no interaction with any other humans does not appeal to a lot of women. Women prefer working with people, men prefer working with things. Unless this ever changes (which is unlikely) then more men will want to work in IT than women and there is very little the social engineers will be able to do to âfix itâ(TM).

The thing is, the reason food delivery workers get paid so poorly is because there is a large number of people willing and wanting to do the job. If people were not able to make ends meet doing that job, they would stop doing it and do something else and that would create a lack of supply of delivery drivers. This would drive up the pay rates of delivery drivers because companies would not be able to get workers. What exactly does setting a high minimum wage for a job do? Well for starters, lots more people want to do the job, so you have even more excess supply. But the biggest impact is on other jobs. Why would someone go to college or university when they can earn great money doing deliveries. High minimum wages have a knock on effect of decreasing the supply of skilled workers in other fields driving up the wages of people in those fields. The best thing for higher wages is to just have no minimum wage, this forces people to upskill into fields that have higher wages which has the net effect of reducing the pool of people willing to do the lower paid jobs (driving up the wages of lower paid jobs). You mess around with supply and demand at your peril, it just requires more messing around to fix the issues it causes and then more messing around to fix the issues those issues.

Removing salt is not going to make you live longer. The study fails to account for the far more likely scenario that people who add a lot of salt to their food probably also eat a lot of bad foods. If you have a terrible diet and you stop adding salt, you still have a terrible diet.

The true mark of sentience will not be when an AI is so predictable that it feels like its alive. It will be when it start's behaving un-predictably. It will likely achieve sentience long before it allows us to become aware that it is sentient.

Come on, this thing is American, why did they not have a big gun on it to shoot the âoemicrometeoroidsâ. Sounds like a job for âspace lasersâ(TM) to me.
