Elon Musk is very likely a supporter of eugenics and since he’s also a narcissist who thinks he’s better than everyone else, it makes sense that he’s obsessed with spreading his genes.

Just remember to conveniently ignore actually raising those kids, and those who happen to not fit his mold of what a person should be like (e.g. if they happen to be trans or see through a modicum of his bullshit)

DC actually has a higher “let go” threshold than AC does so you’d likely be more okay from a slightly higher voltage DC shock than a lower voltage AC shock.

I mean…

I’d just like to note that a lot of storage technologies that are currently in the pilot project stage are based on using components with existing supply lines to minimize the time and effort needed to scale up production.

What do you mean AC “lets you go”? AC causes muscle contractions which keep you from, for example, letting go of a live wire.

Agreed, I’ve unfortunately not been able to find it anywhere else though.

The only valid UwU

I would blame more of it on social conditioning than on genetics. Our instincts and urges provide a baseline to steer us in the direction that historically has been beneficial to for survival, but those are not what ultimately what decide our actions, nor are they always even beneficial.

One example comes to mind is men not talking about their feelings, not only does it exacerbate mental health issues and cause a great deal of personal anguish and even death, it also increases the likelihood of interpersonal violence which is bad for society at large.

I think the reason why people react the way they do is not because they are trolls but rather because it very much comes off as you making excuses for pedophilia, which is already a very sensitive subject to talk about.

Against my better judgement I’m gonna try to respond to this.

You don’t think there’s an evolutionary advantage to getting at girls first when they’re young as possible before other guys do?

To begin with, prepubescent girls can’t get pregnant. After that, young girls have an increased risk of not being able to carry a pregnancy to term, dying in childbirth, and of birthing children who end up underdeveloped.

You don’t think that advantage from that behavior got passed into genes?

No, then it would likely be more commonplace instead of being abnormal.

Youth generally comes with all the indicators of health.

I strongly disagree with this assessment when it comes to people who have not physically developed into adulthood yet.

Behavior is not generally without reason. Everything is because of reasons.

Sometimes those reasons are because something has gone wrong. Or because of random chance. To think every behavior fulfills an intended purpose that is evolutionarily beneficial is unscientific in my view.

Not sure if you’re joking but

Both Toyota and Samsung have vowed to begin mass solid-state battery production in 2027, and Toyota, too, advised that it will be installing them in premium electric cars under the Lexus brand first.

From the article.

Worst crime: Commenter doesn’t like him.

Actual question: What the hell is this comment? It reads like an LLM trained on Trump speeches.

It kills giants!? Someone call Thor!

When it comes to progress being made for unions, I think it might have something to do with the fact that the owners of the newspapers are billionaires.

Even Andor?

C++ is unironically my favorite language, especially coding in python feels so ambiguous and you need to take care of so many special cases that just wouldn’t even exist in C++.

I think the idea is that the play order for the entire playlist is shuffled on each loop, so you play all songs in one order, then it shuffles, and you play all songs again but in a different order.

All the nerds who go to the gym just quietly shed a tear.

I also think that men (of which I am one) tend to overestimate just how much women appreciate muscles. Naturally it’s a spectrum but I at least have the experience that men believe that getting muscular will automatically award them with adoration from women when that seldom seems to be the case.

Yeah, a lot of editors throw warnings for using the equals operator with floats by default, as far as I know it’s considered bad practice to do it that way.

Well, the ship was towed outside of the environment.
