Why not Mitchel himself? Without anyone else. Seeding superlogical wouldn’t make a dent to his “10 digit bank account”. Probably not much more expensive than airplane hobby.

Though what I genuinely don't understand is, why then Mitchel needs funding? If he needs funding - why accept it from weird contraversial figures? He has the freedom of choice, lik…

Look at this article and it's graphs: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passengers_per_hour_per_direct... Cars are the very bottom, by very considerable margin. You need to prove other…

Fair and I concur. Though still, I wonder, what gains could be from such model (car sharing instead of cars or public transit)? As far as I understand this model must support (with…

Capex for car infrastructure seemingly is uncapped (and I don’t talk only about USA either). But when it’s non-car transit suddenly it’s too much money, not profitable, nimby, etc.…

IMHO - you are not countering parent’s argument.

But I don't get the Waymo "solution" in this thread. Genuinely and not trolling. Where I live we have non-autonomous car-sharing (that I barely use). Patterns are always the same i…

I hope it's sarcasm? How about if autonomous cars would be bigger, so from same apartment block people could ride-share to same office downtown? What if those cars would be on rail…

I concur, that this could be a possiblity and it definitely seems now. Though my bet would be, if USA will go ultra protectionist in this regard - in 10-20 years most world will ru…

Don't be obtuse. I own a physical book, I don't own the IP of it. As long as I own the book - I can freely read it's contents 100 years from now. If I own[1] DRM protected ebook on…

it’s equivalent take to laugh at first transformers 9 years ago, because they were shit and hardware requirements were immense. IMHO it’s a matter of time until we (consumers) will…

Which part of “immigration enforcement” is executing citizens in broad daylight?

I think this video can answer your question: https://www.veritasium.com/videos/2021/9/30/your-dna-is-alre... I don’t remember the exact details, because I have watched it long time…

Maybe, but: - I don’t use most social media and even if I did I don’t follow (and definitely do not want to) hierarchies of various corporations; - Twitter is hostile platform (tha…

I “like” how a lot of news and updates for ChatGPT and Claude are twitter posts, most often without corresponding statement in their websites. I was trying to figure out status wit…

Americans will do everything but not have socialised health care even though they are already leading the world on taxes spent per capita for health care. https://en.wikipedia.org/…

username checks out? :D

I don't understand why they got rid of usb-c port?

This take makes my blood boil. They had the buffer! She’s top level medical doctor with top health insurance for her family, shelling out who knows how many thousands of dollars a …

With this news - another week of Fable extension for subscribers coming right up.

> What do we do when we know that social media it not healthy for kids. IMHO it's not healthy for anyone. From kids, to retired pensioners not knowing what to do with their time, t…

1. Like others said - induced demand. You add one highway lane - more people will jump into cars to use it. You add tram/metro line instead - same people would like to use that ins…
