They are… most of them were born into family of “managers”. If you remove people who actually founded brand new companies (not financed them… but actually founded), than most of “C” level managers are just got on the “money train” because of been born into “right” family. Going through “business school” is just a way to extend they Rolodex of the “useful contacts”… to ensure that they stay employed till time to retire (at 40) and that they can pass this Rolodex to they kids.

Reply to comment by EyeLikeTheStonk in New tech could bring affordable, hyper realistic screens with 1000+ Hz refresh rates by Sorin61
10k Hz refresh rate is not the same as 10k fps. Analog movies were shot at 32 fps… and no one complained about “smoothness”.
So anything above 32 is mostly to fool our brain for some “beneficial” purpose.

Reply to How Much Land Would It Require To Get Most Of Our Electricity From Wind & Solar? by BlitzOrion
And don’t forget that it is not like we can not use this land for some other purpose at the same time. With summers getting hotter and hotter shade under solar panels is actually good thing for farming.

Never. You should not “blindly trust” anybody or anything. Everything has an agenda.

Reply to Apple is convinced my dog is stalking me. A vital AirTag safety feature is incorrectly notifying me every day. by MayoFetish
2 dogs, both “air tagged”… never had any issues. The only notifications I get is when I leave dogs in a car while doing some shopping (when I leave my dogs in the car, my wife stays with them and car is always “climate controlled”)… and that notifications correctly remind me that I left my two dogs behind.

Reply to Globally, the total cost of energy for households has likely increased between 62.6% and 112.9% since Russia invaded Ukraine, say international researchers. An additional 78–141 million people worldwide could be pushed into extreme poverty as a result of these increases. by MistWeaver80
At the very least this is the small part of the problem… record profits posted by every single fossil fuel related company is much bigger issue. Russian war is just a convenient excuse.

Reply to comment by WeirdAndGilly in Study on former citizens of East Germany sheds light on why people may choose deliberate ignorance by chrisdh79
To be fair… I do have very little patience with religion(s) in general and institution of “church” in particular. And you probably can find dozen comments from me on the subject (though considering how old my Reddit account is… it most likely will be less than 1 comment per year :) )

The same reason why some choose to beleive into 2000 years old fairy tales… makes life easier.
Not better… not more fulfilling… average person perfectly happy if tomorrow is as today… as a matter of fact, they will stay “happy” even if tomorrow slightly worse than today… especially if you can point to other people and “explain” that they are the reason.

Does it really matter? Most likely all these people who moved to other countries still contributing to the economy (usually by supporting they parents/family ). So it is win/win situation.

This is 21st century… why are we still talking about tanks? In face of opponent of equal technical level, tank life span on battlefield measured in minutes. Tank works when you face bunch of natives with machine guns… not when your face modern anti-tank weapons.

You can not cure “mental illness”. You can re-wire the brain of the person… but it is rather questionable to do it without person consent… which you probably can not get from person who needs help… so this is pretty much dead end.

Reply to comment by Entartika in 2023 tax credits for EVs will boost their appeal by PhantomWizard2099
Because Tesla was selling cars which look pretty much the same for more than a decade.
Also, if you look for non-us sources on YouTube, modern Bolt has very good reviews. Considering all “publicity” Tesla (Elon) had over last 12 month, and considering huge number of new EV coming to US market (including quite a few in under $30K segment) … you probably still will see a lot of Teslas… because they all look the same and all other EV will look different from each other.

Reply to Do language models lack creativity? by sheerun
Creativity is ability to make lucky mistakes by not following rules. At this point AI trying to achieve exactly opposite. No mistakes while acting “by the book”.
I have read sci-fi short novel once (don’t remember the author) where main idea was that particular robot was known to create amazing fireworks… until one of the guests (robotic engineer) noticed that this robot had some slight bug in his behavior and than out of goodness of his heart fixed it. The lady who employed the creative robot end up shooting that engineer guest once it become apparent that “fixed” version of the robot lost all creative abilities.

I think it is 80k exactly for ICE trucks, but Electric tracks recently were allowed to be 82k… so it is possible that as a result, Tesla can haul as much as ICW trucks.
Good video with bunch of math checking Tesla claims - https://youtu.be/Uv44W7xa4IU
