And the list goes on of the food products that only existed in the Americas - chocolate, coffee, hot peppers. But of course it goes both ways. I just had traditional breakfast in an isolated Zapotec village in Mexico. But of course the chee

Side note: I find ChatGPT to be a much better translator. It doesn’t just do literal translations. Here’s how it explained this phrase: The saying "Maestro Liendre: De tó sabe, pero de ná entiende" generally means that someone app

And also why it’s possible to buy a perfectly fine house in Japan for $30k USD. Their demographics also contribute to this too though.

Maybe you're thinking of the Air Force supercomputer built using PS3's? https://phys.org/news/2010-12-air-playstation-3s-supercomput...

Musk submits to drug tests. But yeah just skimming news headlines would give you a different idea.

X might have a long-term edge if courts start ruling in favor of lawsuits like these? Being able to legally train on all Twitter data…

The free standard autopilot on teslas makes highway driving much less taxing. I also have an ICE car, but will always take the Tesla on long road trips. Charging stops make the trip take maybe 10% longer, but that’s fine with me.

Good take, I think that’s accurate. Part of me still wants to believe that Tesla as a company also just wants to help speed up the global transition to EVs (more than they already have). Maybe that’s naive though.

I have an Oculus2 and a PSVR2, and the Apple headset seems like an entirely different thing. It's meant to replace your mac computer and your tv. Yes with the headsets I have, you can surf the web and technically try to write code, but

64 pixels in the size of an iPhone screen pixel is pretty crazy, and feels like they might have made the leap in technology to make the screen "disappear". I have a PSVR2, and the screen is very much not disappearing in my mind on

Pretty much every single drive from my house since that involves a short freeway on-ramp... How often do you tow a range rover with your range rover?

If you don't think he's doing hardcore fundamental rocket design work at spacex, you've just been reading clickbait articles.

Must wasn't a billionaire when he started his rocket company. He had in the ballpark of 100 million. There are thousands and thousands of people that could start a rocket company. And he did it when no private entity had ever even reac
