Urban shade

They need changes in laws too. Instead of chewing up open space and farmland I’d rather see more urban areas used like parking lots and industrial sites.

That would require companies roll profits back into development and their employees instead of pocketing it all, schemes like stock buybacks and wall st traders.

The same thing happened in the 80s with Japan. The Japanese were no longer making crappy cars but small and very reliable, affordable cars. Detroit was still making rust buckets, obsessing over powerful engines with bodies that rotted out and defects galore. Detroit got beaten up badly (Chrysler had to get a gov bailout) until they cleaned up their act and improved their products. Protecting Detroit from competition would’ve just saddled US consumers with decades more of crappy, overpriced, low quality, cars.

We still don’t let in the small pickups the rest of the world enjoys.

Most criminal laws are at the state level so it would be a CA law.

UNATTENDED CHILD IN MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY ACT

There is no need for a seperate law in the event of harm or death since that would just fall under existing harm/death of a child laws.

I can barely handle being in a car that has been sitting in the sun for the 5 minutes it takes for the AC to get up to speed.

He has previously said the British public’s affection for the NHS is a case of “Stockholm syndrome”

Wtf does that mean? “You are crazy for caring about your healthcare.” lol

Never go full Hitler

Now I do so it got some free advertising.

Why? This is giving it more attention than it deserves.

I’ve never heard of “Grok”.

I’ve had good results being very specific, like “Generate some python 3 code for me that converts X to Y, recursively through all subdirectories, and converts the files in place.”

And let it suck up 10% or so of all of the power in the region.

I use it for very specific tasks and give as much information as possible. I usually have to give it more feedback to get to the desired goal. For instance I will ask it how to resolve an error message. I’ve even asked it for some short python code. I almost always get good feedback when doing that. Asking it about basic facts works too like science questions.

One thing I have had problems with is if the error is sort of an oddball it will give me suggestions that don’t work with my OS/app version even though I gave it that info. Then I give it feedback and eventually it will loop back to its original suggestions, so it couldn’t come up with an answer.

I’ve also found differences in chatgpt vs MS copilot with chatgpt usually being better results.

You need three prongs, infrastructure, training and enforcement. No one wants to spend the large amount of $ it would take to redesign thousands of miles of roads in each city. There is also the issue of how ridiculously low the bar is set for getting a license and how basic safety inspections are. In my state I can count on one hand how many times I’ve seen highway patrols enforcing traffic laws.

That is a pretty high number of shootings then. Practically everyone drives so that is a lot of miles/person. You have to drive, you don’t have to be shot, that is why it draws media attention.

Well you can’t stop everyone from being foolish. Before this they copied stuff on tv.

Won’t someone think of the poor influencers!? Sorry, “creators”. Just like Van Gogh and Stanley Kubrick.

Maybe it can AFK my character in games for me
