These talks obviously are going to take a long time with a big company like Amazon. Rivian probably wants to start filling their order book for 2024/2025 which can help them secure additional financing to keep the company going.

I have the Meta/Rayban stories sunglasses and they're unquestionably my favorite sunglasses and it's unfortunate they haven't been as big of a hit as I expected.

They are very natural, the camera and video feature work great, they're excellent for taking calls and listening to music. If they could achieve the AR feature set that I have in my Nreal Air's, but untethered it would be "The great leap forward" for AR/VR consumer glasses.

Lightsail is terrible for anything serious. They are extremely overprovisioned.

Yes but now instead of having to spend $20 million on a satellite launch (including R&D time and hardware, not just the rideshare fee) you can pay $XX dollars to get your photo. Seems to be a significant cost savings.

30ish years.

Proof bread with a cloth. Glass containers for food are very durable, I've yet to break one.

Nominative determinism in action.

Where did the $12,000/year come in?

30/50cm per pixel are the maximum allowable by law in the US for "civilians". I'm sure we could do even better if allowed.

Pelican makes a 30" rack depth portable case. Not quite 40" but almost there.

Dell T7810/5810/5820s can be had second hand for practically nothing and they have fairly modern build specs. They're sized to fit in racks with some basic L shaped rails. They also make great under desk systems as they're whisper quiet.

Likewise. The only bizarre behavior I see is "looney tunes" style confusion where the road construction crews have left old lanes in place that steer into a wall or off the road. Humans mostly understand that these are lines lazy construction crews have left (although the debris fields near the barriers maybe tell a different story), but the Tesla vision model likes to try to follow them.

I had this with a stolen iphone in Houston, Texas. I called the local police and they said they couldn't help, I told the operator that's okay, I have a gun and I'll go retrieve it myself. An officer was standing in front of me 10 minutes later. We got the phone back.

Texas Monthly is in no way a conservative magazine. Are we reading the same thing?

Counterpoint: You can go read the “Noctor” subreddit or ask any practicing physician why it’s bad for patient outcome.

Ultimately we need more doctors and less hospital administrators.

At current interest rates they wouldn't if they had to take out a loan for the house. That's my point. It's not profitable even on a 5 year return window.

How could a company make any money renting an IPv4 address for $1-2/month when it cost them $50 for the address.

ipv4 addresses are approaching $50-60 per address. The days of cheap ipv4 vpses is almost over.

You needed to run a cleaner through that tape device.

The "article" is based off of a study by "Anderson Economic Group" which touts itself as an organization that "offers research and consulting in economics, valuation, market analysis, and public policy." One look at their "Energy and Environment" page should tell you everything you need to know: https://www.andersoneconomicgroup.com/expertise/industry-exp...

Their cost to drive an EV 100 miles is claiming $15, which is absolutely insane. I have a luxury SUV ev (Audi etron) and my cost for 100 miles is about 4 dollars based on 13c/kwh electricity. If I ONLY charged at public chargers it would be between $13.32 (40c/kwh) and $8.33 (25c/kwh). This article is bullshit.

Texans don't want to live in suburbs in drive cars, they have no choice because it's illegal to build dense housing via deed covenants and city ordinances that work in place of zoning. The most expensive and desirable housing (not counting the hyper-wealthy enclaves) in Houston is also the most walkable and dense.

Google Pixel phones still do "deep fusion" processing like an iphone, but instead with Google's secret sauce. The photo your phone is showing you is what machine learning thinks the picture should look like, and not the picture you took.

Bad according to who?

Everyone once in a while the roulette ball lands on green and I get a big payout. That's not a cyclical event.

If you have an iPhone put it into grayscale mode. I promise your screen usage will drop by half if you can keep it enabled.

They do. You'll be shocked.

I did 30,000 miles in a 2019 outback with a significant amount of phantom breaking, more than I've had in my Tesla or e-tron. Anecdotes don't mean much.

My Sigma FP isn’t using a deep learning model to enhance the image like an iPhone is (in iPhones case, deep field has added faces to photos, and all sort of other crazy stuff.)

It’s dishonest to try compare color profiles with AI image manipulation .

It’s relative and overlooks ten+ years of trading.

Tesla stock is only at the lowest since the start of the pandemic when everything wildly inflated due to the massive influx of money into the system. It’s still radically up since 2017. The last two years were a severe anomaly.

I think if you vacuum sealed the disks it would help prevent the issue.
