  • Ya he pull that out of his ass one day and send a company wide email telling everyone that was the new standard, basically so he could win a Twitter argument. Which is insane becuase it would either make the trucks 100x more expensive or is just physically impossible becuase he didn’t specify what temperature he was talking about. Also, if anyone has seen a Cybertruck, it is immediately obvious that they don’t bother checking tolerances anyways.









  • This stuff always reminds me of China’s nuclear program in the 60s. Like once the Sino-Soviet Split happened the US literally just assumed that Chinese people were too stupid to produce an atomic bomb. Even after China’s first nuclear test in '64 the US would not recognize them as a nuclear power, and kept insisting they would be unable to develop nuclear armed ballistic missiles or thermonuclear weapons, both of which were then tested in the next two years and both times it was deeply shocking to the US foreign policy blob.

    Also, the US went on to learning nothing from this becuase the exact same thing happened with North Korea which went from their first nuclear test to thermonuclear weapons in 10 years. Like in the early stages North Korea was very willing to surrender their nuclear weapons program for lifting of sanctions, but the US would never negotiate in good faith becuase they genuinely believed the North Koreans were to primitive to proceed to the next stage of development.


  • We need to revturn to the pre-Republic Roman system of ten 28 day months and a liminal, unaccountable 90ish day period during the winter where dates don’t exist. We need to have a high priest pulling apart bird guts to tell us when in March we can start counting days again. We need a system so subjective and variable that you occasionally need a 500 day year to reset everything either becuase of compounding error or because the priest in charge got murdered and no one replaced him for two months.




  • Anglos just assume anything related to Ireland is inherently nonsense, thus making Joyce completely incomprehensible to them.

    Also, Ulysses is an eminently readable book, like it’s very dense which means you have to read it a couple times and read commentary/annotations, but that’s something every great work of literature requires. They teach you this in HS English. Finnigan Wake I could take or leave, but Ulysses is a genuine masterpiece.
