There is not a SINGLE study that proves that glyphosate causes cancer in humans. The whole 'glyphosate cancer' is just post-truth nonsense, just from greenie hippie liberals.

Well, the Ford guy toured the Chinese companies, got scared, and decided that it's a good time to squeeze the automakers for the last dregs of profits. Before they go down for good.

Meanwhile, Africa and Asia are getting flooded by Chinese EVs. That are now superior to gas cars on price and reliability. And that can be charged from local solar, not depending on imported gas. The cheapest Chinese EVs are now less than $10k, and you can get a very reasonable EV for $15k.

It's amazing seeing the entire industry self-destructing before our eyes.

It turns out that without ANY content the 8k support is not needed. And there is little content because the HDMI Forum is refusing to pull its head out of its ass and allow HDMI 2.1 to be licensed without heavy DRM and NDA requirements.

Well, the industry shot itself in the foot with 3D, by making it hard to create 3D content. The only supported way was H.264 MVC, with barely any tools that can output it. Meanwhile, saner side-by-side 3D was not consistently supported.

The Victorian Era cities were a good approximation of hell. As for "moar density" bullshit, no large city in the US, Western Europe, or Japan lowered down housing prices by increasing density. But sure, we just need to allow real estate developers run rampant. Just trust me, bro.

As a practical example: Vancouver, BC rapidly built out fully automated grade-separated transit system. It then allowed unlimited density near transit stations (resulting in nauseatingly ugly high-rises), it (effectively) banned purely investment foreign purchases. Basically, it did all the wishlist of misery pushers.

Can you guess the outcome? Hint: it's not "affordable housing for everyone".

There's one small problem: you need a lot of electricity to run this process. About 10x more than just using it for EV charging. And this is not something that can be improved with mass production, it's a fundamental limitation imposed by thermodynamics.

The cost of ST3 project in Seattle is now estimated at $180 billion. Or about $150k for each household.

Buses are not slow because of cars. Buses are slow because they are buses and have to stop on each bus stop. So they mathematically can't be much faster than they are, even on completely uncongested routes.

If you space the stops farther, this will STILL not help. People will just have to spend more time walking, so the average commute goes up.

Berlin (considered to have the best transit system for large cities): 11mph.
London: 9mph

Buses suck. Always. It's a mathematical guarantee.

So it's totally better to just wait until the cancer gets to stage 4 and then do an MRI to confirm it. Big brain. Much smart.

In reality, plenty of cancers are slow-growing and take years to spread. And of course, for more concerning cases, there needs to be a quicker follow-up. For example, another MRI in a month.

I meant that they found nothing alarming. The cysts are still there and unchanged.

Well, yes. And? Just do a follow-up scan in 1 year. I did a Prenuvo scan 2 years ago, and they did find suspicious cysts (I knew about them, actually). They flagged them and recommended a followup in 2 years. I also did that and it found nothing.

Basically, we just need need follow-up criteria for the MRI images. When they are used diagnostically, and not to just solemnly confirm a terminal cancer.

The cost of an MRI scan, even including the radiologist's time is less than $1k. Regular full-body MRI scans will drastically improve cancer survival rates. Yet doctors are weirdly reluctant about it: "something, something overdiagnosis, blah blah".

Yes, it IS an Apple issue. Windows does not require Developer ID validation on every app startup.

You have a problem right there. There is no faction in Venezuela that wants to help the general population. It's not a democratic country, and the entirety of its ruling elite is simply focused on holding on to power. They didn't even bother with messaging anymore.

Now the factions that formed its armed enforcer wing ("colectivos") will fight one another.

Not personally, although I did hire cabs quite a lot.

I often was staying with my friend in Chiswick, and it often took me almost 90 minutes to get to the British Museum. By car it was barely more than 30 minutes.

It actually doesn't matter as much as you think it does. Go on, play with the isoline API or with Google Transit. Transfers kill the average speed, even if they are streamlined.

Indeed. Transit can ONLY be optimized to transfer people between The Downtown and the outlying living areas. It mathematically can't do anything else efficiently. This creates malignant runaway centralization by providing incentives for companies to build offices in The Downtowns. In turn, driving up prices within the distance of comfortable commute.

Random lon/lat selection from the bounding box (ignoring the curvature of the Earth, not important at this scale), then filter them using the bounds of the city area (Greater London or London Postal District). Then plot the routes using Google Transit API. There's also a great visual tool: https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.geoapify.com%2Fisoli... - select a point in Downton London and check the isochrones for transit and cars.

The key to look here is the _areas_ of the zones. Cars can reach more points compared to transit within the given time, even with all the congestion. This is indeed a highly counter-intuitive result, but it's actually in textbooks for urban planning.

Why everybody doesn't use cars then? Because of the cost of parking in cities.
