I'm tempted to go on Reddit and start using McMuffin on all the film subreddits, just so AI will start using it.

When I wanted to look at one a few years ago the dealer said they didn't have any, and that I needed to put a $500 deposit to order one, even for a test drive. And it was non refundable. I passed.

As I understand it, they will allow 1200W panels, so 10 amps. Germany allowed 800W, just over 3 amps. Not sure if I trust 10 more amps behind the circuit breaker on old wiring. I'd rather see an aux plug mandated on your AC compressor outside, so you can bypass house wiring.

CEGEP in Quebec is 2 years before university. I did Engineering at McGill with very few electives, but in CEGEP took courses everything from African History to Culture in Latin America to Mideival Literature.

My hot take is that doing well on an IQ test really does show how well you do on an IQ test (and not much else).

Even if the next president manages to reverse all the disastrous policies of Trump, the rest of the world needs to protect itself from the next irrational election result because the US won't elect a woman or another POC.

Check out Dan John's workouts, like Armor Building Formula. It's based on simple kettlebell routines (ABC and Military Press). I found it great, especially for people of a certain age. I spent the $18 on his ebook, but all the info is out there for free.

I got valley fever about 5 months before COVID hit. If it had happened 5 months after it probably would have been tough to get diagnosed and treated. I spent one week in bed, and worked from home for a month.

Long time listener of your podcast. It's one I have learned a lot from. I appreciate that here you can vent on the insanity that is our current administration, but I am glad you don't focus on it for your podcast. We don't need yet another political podcast, there are plenty of those to choose from.

Exactly. For those kind of targets you need a radar assisted quad 50cal, not a missile.

There's a road in New Mexico that runs parallel to the border with Texas. The number of oil rigs just over the border is staggering. It really does look like a dystopian movie.

These people are clinically insane. “You’re going to need a lot of people,” he said at a 2023 conference for the movement known as pronatalism, “because a lot of people are going to die in space exploration, and there’s a lot of planets out there.”

The biggest real impact of our policies was probably on kids not being in school, but it was necessary to limit the spread. Of course kids needing drills on surviving school shootings is much more damaging to their emotional well-being, and we don't do anything to limit the need for that.

I understand the dual nature of these targets, so go for it. But why aren't the ballistic missile production sites getting burned to the ground too? I see some are being hit,but the damage seems not as extensive. Is it just that there's more flammable material in these warehouses?

It's often not on the package as Taylor Farms, it goes to many store brands. Look for the TF as the start to the product code.

He'll launch some sort of GPU (probably on a modified StarLink) and call it an AI datacenter. The rubes have shown they'll believe anything he says. Of course it will be 1000x more expensive than running it on earth, but overpromising/underdelivering is his superpower.

The biggest AI issue is the Chinese Moonshot getting within a few months of the best AI models. The enormous CapEx by Anthropic and OpenAI becoming stranded assets will cause a lot of pain to the markets. Hormuz will of course cause pain to the real world, but Wall Street seems good at ignoring it.
