Really wish it detailed how they discovered it. Hope there wasn't some digging that ran into and destroyed some section. Can't wait to see a further analysis of the site. Hope they can use some techniques to measure the full scal

I'm totally happy if Nuclear becomes the major source that gets us off fossil fuels. But I'm also realistic. The cost, timeline, and red tape holding it back isn't moving fast enough.

Actually would be interesting to replace an existing rental company with tons of physical locations, especially since the margins to buy the cars decreases upfront cost of the otherwise premium vehicle. Low maintenance and high resale value

I hated car rental companies every time I had to use them, even if it was being charged to a company I was visiting. That changed after I became 26. Tons of extra fees and requirements are tossed on younger drivers which turned out to be mo

The amount of oil or natural gas for the equivalent amount of energy that will be saved is worth it. Old panels were bad, but without it we wouldn't have today's cheap and efficient panels, with more drops to come. Just like with

ByteDance has a huge suite of apps already (in China). Several of them could independently be unicorns without international expansion. I don't see why they wouldn't want to both grow that number and expand what they already have

They mention its light body without explaining how. You should Google "Naked Owl" and see just how little their body actually is. Most of what you see is just fluffy feathers

What a great point. If I want to know how to do something physical, or learn how a piece of hardware works, YouTube is the place. Since it is Google, how awesome would it be if videos also had related web searches attached to them, instead

Their goal is to begin assembly, much like Fremont's tent. Shanghai is producing many of the parts in-house requiring a much more robust set of tooling, supply chain, and overall clean, enclosed space

The best part about being a kid is that you have nothing to think about other than a little school work. You are free to scour the web finding all the newest tools and put them to use for 'play'. Not saying it can't be done a

While it is crazy, all of the animals listed are already some of the largest physical beings on the planet. Multiply them to 10000x the size of other animal populations, and this is what the scale will turn to.

Animals can't extract that much more. And we certainly can't get 100% of that back out during consumption, ignoring all the inefficiencies of the process. 1 pound of food in might produce 0.01 pound of cow (probably much less).

Why ask for a refund of a flight you were promised that isn't happening or could give you a disease that you could pass to your family? Even in extreme times, if you pay for something but get something other than what you were promised

As much as I wish it were better, most online courses offered by universities do not come close to the in-person experience. Their real goal/outcome is to increase access. Professors are trained (most at least) to teach in-person and h

Absolutely disagree. This was the case for me at average high school and college in the midwest. I'd say ~50% of the populations had those pressures. Going to a upper tier college for grad school showed me that only the percentage chan

Tesla will be able to buy those up as well, just like they are doing with CATL in China. As a battery manufacturer, your goal is to make and sell as many batteries as possible. Tesla wants a much larger number than the other players.

I do at least 2x. For slow talkers, there are Chrome extensions that let you easily bump that number as high as you want on YouTube.
