I think most fish would be prohibitively expensive today if it weren’t heavily subsidized.

It might make book reports obsolete though. I had it belt out 1000 words on The Scarlet Letter and I think it would have gotten a decent grade if it was submitted.

One day I’ll have a pet pig that’s housing my replacement liver. He’ll watch nervously as I pound shots of Jaeger.

It’s going to a collection of innovations that leads to unmanned, scalable space industry. Fusion is great, but it’ll probably be made obsolete once the dyson swarm is built, and a Dyson Swarm could be build shockingly fast with sufficiently automated industry.

Not so much the space mining as the automated industry part. Something that can create a positive feedback loop and grow exponentially.

I don’t see us gutting our planet or abandoning our biology in the next 300 years

My hot take is the transition from from K1 to K2 will take less than 200 years, but that’s going to take figuring out a nearly fully automated space mining and industrial complex. It’s hard to say when we figure that out though, perhaps in another 100 years. So in 300 year we might be polishing off our Dyson Swarm, beyond that the scale gets dizzying.

That doesnt solve the problem of the brain itself aging

I would need to talk to someone who’s owned their system for more than 25 years

It’s amazing they can get away with these prices given how competitive the market is. I’ve had half a dozen door knockers hit me up in the last month, all claiming to have hung my neighbors panels. I let one walk me through the whole process to a $42k price tag and I just said nope!

At least for me I need Solar to pay for itself in 10 years, and I need to know that there’s a cheap way to replace these panels when they die in 25. Otherwise it’s best just to hang on to the grid

I think what he did with Tesla is great. I don’t think Gen Z really appreciates how difficult it was to make electric cars status symbols in this country.

SpaceX is another great story.

However, I think what he brings to the table is Marketing and not really engineering. He sells a vision that’s for sure. But as he gets more comfortable being hated on social media he’s starting to act more and more like a edgy teen and I’m not a huge fan of that

We recently found a modern human that is 400k years old. We used to think our species was only 50k years old. It’s really hard for me to believe people as intelligent as you or I wandered the planet for 390k years without ever figuring out how to build shit with rocks or take notes.

There is still so much to learn about life in microgravity. And living in Orbital space stations isn’t going anywhere. If you are thinking long long term it’s more likely we’ll be disassembling planets to produce O’Neill Cylinders since planets are an inefficient use of matter.

Doctors will be automated before nurses.

“What’s your most controversial opinion.”

If the response isn’t racist, it’s a robot.

Is this… seizing the means of production?

I’ll clarify by saying that I think that the concept of post scarcity of society is dubious. There will always be things we find scarce and we will shift our appetites to pursue those things.

We are already capable of a post scarcity society, but our greed continues to outpace our production capacity. We could give everyone a roof and a full belly, but others might have to do without a 3rd car and a golf membership. I think it’s foolish to think this will change any time soon. I wouldn’t be surprised if we don’t start a war over how the dyson swarms power is allocated in 200 years

Nah… fughettaboutit

Gas pump ads hurt my soul

Destin, FL has some of the best beaches on the planet. That is until this 100 ft rusty tugboat comes along with a massive LED billboard telling you the McRib is back.

We are making this planet gradually more miserable to live in with each passing day.
