The US is going to look really stupid in a few years for hating the “woke” EV agenda. Although truthfully, if it kills Tesla in the process, I couldn’t be happier. The US has chosen the past, has chosen to be one of the “shithole” countries Trump talked about in his first term, and the US will pay the price for it. It’s inevitable.
I don’t think this is surprising at all because I think it’s very self-evident that animals are able to approach and assess situations and revise their view of what’s going on. Humans constantly underestimate animals and constantly overestimate our own intellectual and biolgocial distance from them.
Another entry in the “people in the past were smarter than we’re going to be” department. I guess I won’t claim that EVERYONE in the past was interested in their surroundings, but I bet it was more people percentage-wise than today.
It’s way past time to take tech back from venture capital. Everything wrong with tech stems directly from what people like conehead Marc Andreessen funds and support (the idiot is also on the board of Meta).
Apple has fallen so very far when it comes to software. From tons of papercuts in the form of apparently permanent software bugs to abandoned and/or mistreated applications, modern Apple just doesn’t understand what a proper computing experience is anymore.
Remember when Trump called other countries shitholes? Well, I have feelings about a country that’s running full speed into authoritarianism and militarizing against its own people.
Our pharmacy still offers all the vaccines at no cost to the patient, but the pharmacist I spoke to there when getting recent Covid and Flu vaccines wasn’t sure how long that would last. God bless the richest country in the world!
This guy is far more mature than I would be about being treated like this by ICE after serving his country well and in an actual befitting manner. The people in ICE don’t deserve to carry his boots, let alone talk to him or touch him and handcuff him.
“Elderly man needs water, crashes car”. It’s pretty funny that it turns out a rock and roller from KISS endangers the world more because of dehydration than “satanic music!!”.
I don’t know, it seems like soon enough mother nature may own the place again, so I guess we should enjoy the beauty of it happening around us while we still can.
I think I missed this when i first came out, but I listened to Ross’ story on Kill Switch podcast, and it’s fascinating to hear how he handles videogames and engages the videogame industry to help others like him be able to play and really enjoy their games.
This guy is nuts. I think there’s something about being a billionaire that just drives people insane. Or maybe you have to be insane to do the things it takes to become a billionaire, who knows.
No one can explain why the National Guard is even in DC aside from Trump’s megalomania, and now they’re determined to be able to shoot themselves and others both on purpose AND at random. What could go wrong? I think what disturbs me the most about all of this is how willingly our various forces around the country are jumping into the role of occupying America.
Part of the problem with neglecting your country and relying on the cost-cutting-above-all-else private sector to manage it for you is that you wind up with very precariously balanced social necessities like, I don’t know, medicine. Expect this problem to get worse, not better.
This story is wild – AI coding tool Replit lied to this programmer about unit test results, emailed him an apology, and then wiped his production database. WORST INTERN EVER!
I know you THINK you hated typing class, but you don’t know anything about pain and suffering, my friend. Be glad you have your smartphone to type your love letters in Chinese for you.
