Not sure what the nay sayers are about. Anyone remember the ORIGINAL MacBook Air? Hyper expensive, super underpowered, overheated alot. And yet -- as Steve demonstrated -- it fit in an envelope. THIS is Apple launching a new product line (a

None of these are ancient accomplishments if you like them. They're all since say 1900.

Maybe I'm ignorant, but I follow this stuff abit and it's the first time I see something like it.

I guess he could have just thrown her to the sharks instead of supporting her. But you must be right.

How would this 15-25km of ice be explorable anyways by a probe. It seems incredibly deep...

Bauhaus is kind of fun and cool-- even playful. I totally disagree that it's depressing.

This is how the iPod got "invented" :)

But not useful-- so that's why planting the "tree" now is more practical

And they are used to that issue too. A long history of it.

No one will ever be satisfied-- let's just let people create what they want. They can describe it in the prompt.

I had to go back several times to 0:14 to see if it was really unusual. I get it of course, but probably watching 20 times I would have never noticed it.

Especially of you think that after you can get feedback and try again..15 minutes later have a new one...try again...etc

The thing is -- over time I'm not sure people will care. People will adapt to these kinds of strange things and normalize them -- as long as they are compelling visually. The thing about that scene is it looks weird only if you think a

Though I'm not sure your point here -- outside of America -- in Asia and Africa -- these sorts of markets mixed in with skyscrapers are perfectly normal. There is nothing unusual about it.

True, you're definitely talking past me here.

OP: "It’s essentially asking why is the speed of light 299,798,452 m/s or the gravitational constant 6.67x10-11 Nm2/kg2 I’m sure a universe could work with those constants varied but that’s the one we have in our universe. Th

Lots of long term rentals have no window in Asia. Sure they're small and cheap-- but no need for bedrooms to "must" have windows. And I've lived in them and they're fine. Forever no. For a few weeks or months on a b

I guess it depends on rhe application. Sometimes for speed to market and engineering simplicity the Intel solution is pretty good - though obviously eccentric. Not everyone has a Woz sitting around in their pocket.

"Since 2019 the metre has been defined as the length of the path travelled by light in vacuum during a time interval of 1/299792458 of a second, where the second is defined by a hyperfine transition frequency of caesium." (

They are arbitrary in the sense that we could just change them and the universe wouldn't fl appart -- or are they derived from aonething deeper.

It's HN -- if the company proved responsive it might invalidate his OP and everyone who band wagons on it.

It's not that we are bad at this type of thinking-- but who cares? There will always be weird scenarios and odd things-- when I played the game I was like "Is anyone dying here?' Aside from the Ambulance thing-- no. It's

This is neat -- but has any of it been corroborated? For all we know the scientists might have said "Well we know he uses lots of amphetamines and doesn't sleep well -- what are HIS symptoms?" And made their list...

Or that they are also in a simulation.
