    Hype has become culturally embedded into the tech world unfortunately. There are whole ecosystems incentivized to hype the next new wave of whatever in hope of monetary or other ga…

    Can't wait for all the consulting jobs on AI generated software that "we can't get the AI to add any more new features to correctly" and nobody knows anything about the current cod…

    I see Neuralink as just a next-gen version of deep brain stimulation where we could have a lot more stimulation nodes than 1 or 2. Just that could be quite exciting as it is alread…

    Even though I enjoy work mostly I've learned to take a mental tally of the hours and stressful moments vs. pay. In my personal situation it seems to me that certain promotions aren…

    Is this true? From my memory, many car brands were only good for 100-150k miles when I was a kid. Now it seems like just about all cars made in the last decade are expected to be v…

    I think the unknown really is the progression of battery technology. If in 5-10 years every EV's range is 1000 miles, charging stations could be very limited in their economic viab…

    "Will they use their position to artificially inflate the price of electricity" Maybe but they have significantly less power to maneuver with solar, batteries and on-premise chargi…

    The thing is as adoption increases there will be less charging stations and just spots with EV charging whether its in a home, apartment or street parking. I think the idea of a st…

    I'd guess actually we'll need significantly less charging stations than gas stations at full electric conversion being that you can fill up at home and its most desirable to do so …

    I work with both but maintaining a large backend in JS with a large team has made me really appreciate Java and all it’s uncoolness

    I actually share you're hesitancies but to play devil's advocate could these more fine-grained mediations lead to better policies in scenario's where those in control work for the …

    Wasn't this sort of baked in after Biden won but it just was a matter of when (meaning before or sometime after the 20th)? He obviously brought in an incredibly large audience to T…

    I've recently been thinking that the current version of social media is our generation's version of smoking. I think it's going to take another 25 years but eventually I think it w…

    It hasn’t been studied yet but it’s very unlikely this is true. Is there any previous vaccine that this has ever been true of? If it was wouldn’t that enable the disease to continu…

    This narrative has been recycled for as long as I've lived and its not wrong but just continues to re-highlight what is actually just a constant current. California is a place wher…
