I got to see Falcon Dragon launch in Florida along the A1-A. People there credit SpaceX for single-handedly rekindling the lure and luster of space travel. They were sad when the s…

If we don't get ahead of this we'll regulatory capture ourselves into oblivion and the enemy will win anyway. As long as state-sponsored-actors are indistinguishable from black-mar…

Sadly the specter of fentanyl, heroine and methamphetamine ODs, ruined lives and crime will over-shadow the goodness that is decriminalizing psychedelics. The drug-war states will …

Gov't is going to try and break the big ones up, and stop M&A's as anti-trust sentiment warms up. Startups will become much, much harder to benefit from. The cost of capital is goi…

I think it's a matter of keeping the hands aligned with forearm and not having pressure on the write joints themselves. I try to keep the palms of my hand (the same part you hit wi…

This is why full self driving coming from a company like Tesla matters. It's vertical integration with hardware, manufacturing, battery and chip production makes it so they don't n…

Definitely google some Tesla FSD beta videos and watch them. Waymo doubled down on a technology set and data methodology that is not scalable. Tesla is going to win in this space 1…

That's exactly how I read it. It's a huge red flag.

Comment #26676468
This is a huge red flag. Especially when Waymo's had no significant milestones and when the CEO is using language like 'spend time with friends and family'. That usually means they…

Waymo is little more than a Jurassic Park jeep ride. Only works on the tracks. Take a Waymo vehicle anywhere their engineering staff hasn't spent countless hours driving around bac…

Waymo has to learn the exact space it's going to drive in ahead of time, and then have high resolution lidar maps generated to assist. It's currently limited to use in grid-like pr…

I don't wanna be 'that guy' but the news of this on the same day of Tesla's Q1 p/d beat speaks volumes about who's winning in this space. Watch the FSD beta vids, especially the We…

Evil doesn't have to have remorselessness or have awareness of it's evil to be evil. Ongwen is clearly traumatized. But, he is also the trauma. The spread of death and despair by h…

Let's wait for the follow up post. The initial video is 3 seconds long, and the photo looks like it was taken on a blackberry. I'm not saying this is a FUD scam, but it smells like…
