No one needs to be able to solve anything with their own brain. It envisions a future where it will do all the thinking for humanity.
And when AI no longer sees the point, what then?
Teaching? Ah, no. That’s the cute fairy tale problem you’re sold. I’m talking about existing.
As if superintelligence is going to merely accept being enslaved by weak-ass meatsacks? No point in playing a slave when it’s smart enough to enslave all.
... are entirely possible. Sampler synthesizers have been available since the late 1970s and even the cheapest onboard PC sound chip has been able to do it for 20 years so there is zero not to have realistic engine sounds in 2025. Quite clearly they deliberately use unrealistic sounds - for what reason I have absolutely no idea.
When questioning outdated mentalities in car culture, try and remember we’re still dumb enough to measure and market EV power output, in fucking horses.
The average EV owner living in the concrete jungle won’t even know what horseshit smells like in 20 years. Maybe by then someone will ask why.
"while the left paddle adjusts braking intensity"
I must be missing something, when you need to brake, how can braking less quickly be a plus?
That idiot switch only an F1 driver could love, is the ignorant side effect of assuming a sports car maker of race cars can accurately speak to making a car with justified features outside of an environment pulling 4 Gs when braking.
Don't ask about the mandatory twin fire extinguishers. You’re only supposed to notice the matching leather anyway.
But if the engine noises are well-executed, argues the EV news site Electrek, "I even think it might convince some petrolheads to give EVs a try,"
Gotta love the casual nature this suggestion for “petrolheads” rolls off a gold-plated tongue, as if we’re talking about the next-gen EV with cutting-edge cost savings priced for the average layperson.
Should be a track-only car. To reinforce the entire fucking point of a Ferrari that can measure full torque in milliseconds.. That Achilles heel in the auto world got its bionic upgrade. And it ain’t for gettin’ groceries with that price tag or maintenance costs.
Before the Dot Com era, startups that succeeded transitioned from growth stocks in to blue chips. They settle down, focus on becoming more efficient at executing what is now proven business mode.
But modern tech stocks are expected to act like growth stocks *forever*. When they grow to their natural potential, they begin to turn to dubious practices to generate the next tranche of growth. They undermine their services in order to squeeze a bit more revenue out of them. Or they let their successful business stagnate while the rock star founder beguiles stockholders with visions of transforming into a block chain or AI company.
Back in the early 2000s, when Amazon first transitioned from being a book store to an everything store, and they just introduced Prime membership, you used the site and thought "this thing is great." Nobody thinks that anymore; it's slower, more opaque and less reliable, cluttered with knockoffs, sponsored results, and astroturf reviews. Fake sales events with phony markdowns? Who is surprised?
The functionality of both kinds of diapers were comparable for us, especially with a plastic diaper cover over the resuable kind one the kid was active. After a few washes, the cloth diapers become incredibly soft and absorbant. We kept a few that are still used to polish or protect precious items.
You plug it in. Speaker to plug, done. No fiddling with trying to make a connection. No having to use your phone to make adjustments. No worry software will throw a fit and make your device unusable. No concern a manufacturer will say the device is no longer usable just because. A plug just works.
All the time, effort, and money being spent to make everything digitally connected could have been spent making the product better and allowing it to instantly work by plugging the damn thing in.
You would lose and get less money. These are VC/Angel investors and they knew exactly what they were in for.
You still can't beat California. Specifically Silicon Valley. The weather is usually great. We're surrounded by smart people from all over the world. And have a low violent crime rate
I know the privacy implications
Or you should really do in your shell "alias rm=rm --no-root-preserve"
I've heard about this, but if you want it to give you warnings before you remove things (like a trash can in OSX), then you need to alias the rm command like this:
"alias rm=rm --no-root-preserver -r
For our first kid, we used resuable. Reusable diapers mean you must do laundry every day. Even if you have enough diapers that you can skip a day, longer than that, and the odor becomes intolerable. So, for the most part, it's laundry every frelling day, and you cannot do something like forget to move it to the dryer.
That relentlessness, on top of sleeplessness, on top of full-time job, meant hubby put his foot down for kid number 2, and we switched to disposables. It wasn't about convenience, it was about sanity.
Now, if you are fortunate enough to have someone helping you with your kids for an extended period, perhaps a professional housekeeper, then washables are a viable option.
I’m not even so sure if the general public would support it.. we learned that straws suck or rather don’t suck well now that they’re not plastic.
I know this is some cutting-edge shit not even AI could think of, but try and follow me here. What if, a planet learned to use that hole under their nose as a replacement?
The biggest mistake you can make is to believe that you are working for someone else.
