The pre-COVID project included not only housing, but the development of retail and office space for 20,000 additional employees. Since then Google has actually cut 12,000 employees and even more are working from home in the years since the plan layout was created - it kind of makes sense that Google would at least want…

So, what, it wasn’t going to be profitable, so they dropped it? Or are people just fleeing the area?

“ it is still up 60% for the year”

“In my opinion the ergonomics were a bit off and weight distribution being a problem. But the biggest issue I had was that it didn’t cut anything. The grass was a mix of fine and tall fescue which may have been the issue. Every line I mowed I’d look back at it and there’s be hundreds of missed blades of grass.”

TLDR: Musk destroying Twitter, and Tesla has issues. However... TSLA, as a highly speculated stock, is prone to wild volatile and bears no relationship with reality. Even with the 20% drop in Sept/October... it is still up 60% for the year so it’s not really a “wake up call” so much as “chaos as usual”

TLDR: While BEV are certainly not perfect without any tradeoffs, your post ignored all nuances with a blind gish gallop*

*Gish gallop is a rhetorical technique in which a person in a debate attempts to overwhelm their opponent by providing an excessive number of arguments with no regard for the accuracy or strength of…

“Perhaps Paltrow paused to answer her phone and then raced to catch up with the ski lesson. Then she collided with the dude.”

Your theory is contradicts what both the defense (Paltrow’s team) and the plantiff eyewitness testimony. They both provided eyewitness that said she was keeping pace with her beginner level…

“see thats why you dont mind the banks doing it, i must have made like 17 whole pennies in interest last year!”

while I’m more than 100% certain FTX did all kinds of criminal fraud, isn’t that description above just the basic description of the entire banking industry? Banks use their deposits to invest (while keeping X% as cash on hand mandated by regulation).

OT shouldn’t count IMO. Also, at $40/hour and a 40 hour work week over 52 weeks gross is $83k.

Is not hard salary, but total benefits package value. $100k salary on a 40 hour work week is $48/hour. I don’t think you are going from $21/hour to $48/hour in 4 years.

It is a pity that capitalism won out and cars were forced to be the answer to transport by an industry that knowingly put all life on the planet at risk for a bunch of made-up value tokens.

wouldn’t count on the “would not get distracted” portion. There have been many incidents of autonomous vehicles hitting stationary vehicles, ignoring traffic signals etc.

So the answer to my question is, at most, 12% of all accidents involving 10,000lbs vehicles involve drunk drivers or drivers using their phones.

How many accidents involving drunk drivers or people using their phones are driving 10,000lbs vehicles?

It has the same advertised 24+ hour battery life. The first gen Pixel Watch had a buggy firmware that only gave it 12-15 hours right at launch, but after later patch it now gets 24-30 hours (according to Victoria Song who revisited the Pixel Watch TheVerge Aug 21 2023). So the second gen Pixel Watch is likely to be a…

just a method of exporting pollution to poor people

“Vitaly Egorov, a popular Russian space blogger, noted that Roscosmos may have neglected the warnings in a rush to be the first to land on the lunar south pole ahead of an Indian spacecraft that has been orbiting the moon ahead of a planned landing.”

You are moving the goalposts. You said “Nobody even wants self driving cars. No one would buy a 100% self driving car. The only people that want self driving cars are craphole companies like Uber that want to get out of having to pay their employees.” and someone said “I surely hope that self driving cars will be an…

How in the actual name of hell did they manage to get the entire damn band back together for this on the down low? Did Wright just call em up and they all unanimously went, “Fuck yes?”
