I listen to quite a lot of Scott Galloway and my takeaway from listening to him online is outside of tech and finance he doesn't know shit about jack. Even in the west unemployment is still quite high for >25yo. He believes the US s

One thing I notice about European politicians: they all come from the same background, come from the same families, same socioeconomic status, attend the same schools (Eton, Science Poe, etc), take the same jobs. At the end they all provide

Steve Irwin's death[0] has never not been on my mind anytime a stingray gets near me. I'm like "hey little fella, I'm going to slowly back away to avoid both of us freaking out and one of us may end up dead." Best o

I use an Apple Card and it’s good but nothing amazing. The incentives and benefits are pretty basic. The interest rate isn’t competitive, not even a 0% teaser rate. But I use it because it’s super fucking convenient. 1 account for my entir

I've seen a diesel pulled out from the bottom of the bay, scrubbed clean, and installed in a new boat. The old boat caught on fire and sank. The old common rail diesels are damn hard to kill. Diesels need 3 things: fuel, oil, and coola

At $27 I can get 4-5 Pi Pico Ws. Between that and the ESP32 product line this isn't really competitive. I'll probably get a few just to play around with it. I have so many hats and shields at this point it would be a waste not to

It appears these robotaxis need an emergency button similar to the ones on industrial robots. But instead of completely stopping, a remote operator immediately takes over and bugs out. Meanwhile, the AI can take a backseat and observe how t

There are a lot of things that have to go right to go from human waste to farm to table. Almost no one is doing it at the individual level. Almost no one trusts a random individual to give them human compost. Of the few homesteaders I know

There is a different land use tax. Agricultural land is taxed very little. And unincorporated land is taxed almost nothing. Since it's undeveloped it requires little in government resources. Now, stick houses and stores on it and you h
