Yeah, but in this case, they are talking heads with a significant following, and anything they say in public at this point could also come back to bite them in the keister. And given the track record of these people, more than one of them is likely to publicly put feet into mouths long before they talk to a lawyer.

This reminded me of a glass artist named Josh Simpson who is known for his glass spheres he calls “planets” that have amazingly complex scenes in them. For over two decades he’s had what he calls the “Infinity Project” where he encourages people to hide them out in the open where folks are unlikely to find one. If you submit a proposal to him that he likes then he’ll send you two of his smaller planets, one for you to hide and one to keep for yourself.

My first reaction to this question was: hey, I was alive (not by much) when Neil Armstrong walked on the moon. I don’t remember anything about it though.

Next thing you know Vance will be pushing legislation requiring that every public school classroom have an AR-15 in it, and every teacher be required to regularly pass a test demonstrating proficiency with it…

Next up, the CyberSub…. Who is ready to risk drowning in one?

Simple. They use that money to send their kids to private school where this sort of thing would never happen. Their kids are safe, and they get votes and money from gun owners. That’s all they care about.

All my grandparents all died by the time I was 15…

Maybe he thinks everybody is like one of my high school classmates who bragged of being a grandfather at the ripe old age of 40…

Here in Massachusetts they’ve installed panels in all sorts of otherwise unusable space, including:

  • capped garbage dumps & transfer stations
  • Along the sides of highways
  • inside highway clover leafs

My solar panels charge my Powerwall during the day. My powerwall powers our house and charges our EV at night. When the panels are no longer generating anything.

No, see, piracy is just you downloading movies for yourself. To be like OpenAI you need to download it, put it in a pretty package with a bow, then sell it over and over again. Only when it’s piracy for profit do you get to beg and plead for a pass.

If I was planning locations for DCFC I’d target malls, shopping centers, etc. and not gas station. Virtually every Tesla Supercharger I’ve seen is located at the back of these sorts of parking lots, and for a very obvious reason.

 
 

This just popped into my head after a similar question came up with a coworker…

Back a few decades ago I worked in Kendall Square in Cambridge, MA. My office window looked out towards another building about 15 feet away, and for some reason our floors were about 8 feet higher than the other building. So we could look down into the offices across the way.

The person in the office I could see into had his desk set up so that his back was to the window and he faced his office door. This gave me and my coworkers a clear view of his computer screen over his shoulder. He played Microsoft solitaire constantly, except when somebody walked in. He would very quickly close it so he wouldn’t get caught.

My coworkers and I actually tried to figure out his phone number, but never did. We wanted to call him up and tell him he should have played the red 9 on the black 10…
