Well, work machines have increasing counts of security agents. Mine has three and I’ve seen more. Plus Teams which uses enough RAM to run a proper OS all by itself.

Carry a brick instead!

People also become more isolated from “others” as they age, at least those with stable jobs. They are surrounded by people of the same financial ability, and their job keeps them in an area, and their income matches to a house.

It’s not until they get laid off or they have a medical event that they start to think about it again. As long as the life compared to their peers is ok and their bellies are full, they don’t complain about trillionaires.

So they fired the executives responsible, right?

There’s a fine line between over producing food and having waste and having enough food.

A wise manager ensures that there is a family meal and manages production so that waste is minimized. A stupid manager accuses kitchen staff of stealing when they’re eating food in the restaurant.

Eating off of other people’s plates is a disease vector, don’t do that.

“Do what you love for a career and you’ll never work”

“I hate my hobbies and want to patch potholes instead.”

Nope.

“Do the thing. I have a script that does the thing. I made it by listing the things in excel and asking Claude to write a script that does all the things”

The script not only doesn’t run, but it also quietly doesn’t do parts, and breaks stuff too.

So now I’ve got a pile of code that doesn’t work and it would be faster if I’d written it myself than troubleshooting the spaghetti. It’s like having a dumb intern, except the intern is incapable of improvement.

Specializing in a bubble is probably not wise. Writing about it and studying it as a tangential topic to your primary area of research is probably better. Philosophy, language, etc.

I’ve got two 250w panels set up feeding a 1kwh battery box/inverter which in turn feeds my ‘fridge and works as a UPS.

Around the solstice I can run it all about 12-14hrs but even a month later it’s down to 8-10 already, never mind winter, and with current rates it’s at least a 10 year payback. I don’t really understand the financials of microsolar. It seems like something that scales better if the building management put it up rather than individuals with 400w on the balcony.

I am also sure that extensive studies were done to identify where the cameras would be “most effective”, and so now they’re gone, of course the speeding has gone up.

Friends in Ontario tell me there were some towns that plummeted speed limits (80 to 40 eg) with the intent of throwing cameras on it. Of course people speed. NotJustBikes of course has a good video about speed limits.

Bike, row, and weight training certainly has less bouncing.

Plus jumping rope and running is harder on the joints if one is heavier and untrained.

Factory farms are A-OK, but look at the multitude of issues that a (relatively wealthy) landowner faces in trying to make a more traditional mixed production farm be profitable in the current environment. Harry’s Farm and Clarkson’s Farm paint a pretty dark picture; it’s less risky/more profitable to plant flowers (government guaranteed income) than it is to produce food. Consolidation of abattoirs can mean that animals need long-distance transportation for processing. Dairy market rewards only factory sized production. Etc.

Do you just screw through the roof or..??

Consumers do not have the technical knowledge required to make an informed decision about these products. They don’t have the technical ability required to block the TV from the internet. They don’t know how to filter the internet access so that Netflix works but the botnet doesn’t.

If our regulators and politicians were doing their jobs, consumers wouldn’t have to understand firewalls, DNS, and CDNs.

Some of this is safety equipment and more recently batteries and hybrid equipment, which takes up space. Some of this is simply design and aesthetics.

Six hours stationary during normal peak sleep hours, with the lights on, in a commuter coach. So the trip averages under 80kph?

I don’t think you understand the assignment; not even a little bit.
