This makes me feel so much better about my electric heat , car, lawn care tools , etc. I knew I was future proofing and it was cheaper but it's nice to know even in a poorly run grid I'd be doing the right thing.
NEW BRIGHT SPOTS: Even on 100% gas power, heat pumps cut emissions by ~48% and EVs by about half. The authors of an “electrification doesn’t cut emissions” paper made a series of compounding mistakes and used misleading assumptions. Here's why. janrosenow.substack.com/p/heat-pumps...

I'm in a political commentary from a guy who don't know shit mood today. I don't think Trump and co are personally more evil this time I just think the guard rails have gotten even weaker . I wonder if it got this bad last time if he would have gotten a second turn and what that says about humanity.
Addendum: obvious it was bad and people got hurt last time too it just feels more obvious and public in a way that "I'm not political" people can't hide from it. Sorry for commenting from the sidelines. It effects the rest of us but not as much as the attacked groups both locally and in bombed spots

I go to the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas every year. I've seen flying cars there for the last five years at least. Obviously you can make a car fly. We make way more complicated shit fly daily. We don't make flying cars because have you been outside?
We already have flying cars. They're called helicopters. They're really expensive and there are good reasons you have to have a pilot license and work with air traffic control to fly them. Putting jets on a sedan is not going to result in a better vehicle or transportation experience in any way.

Love that some execs are paid hundreds of thousands of dollars a year and yet still need to do studies to determine that teaching people how to do their jobs well makes them better at doing their jobs.
Employers worldwide are pulling back on AI as they navigate a flood of errors and low-quality work that sap employee time, raise privacy and security risks, and drive up costs
