This is actually quite good on its own terms.
And insanely good for AI…

Exactly this - happens to me regularly. It’s the most annoying thing for me when I’m cycling. Many car drivers seem unaware that they don’t have to overtake straight away.
And if you’re coming up to a red light or slow traffic, there is no need to overtake a cyclist just to stop again 20 metres later.
Even when it’s safe, it’s often pointless. Better for everyone to wait a few seconds.
Chill out in the big heavy metal box ;)
"Bicycling has done more to emancipate women than anything else." — Susan B. Anthony, 1896.
Yet today, women only make up 40% of riders. This International Women’s Day, let’s push for ambitious and inclusive cycling policies that make our cities more equitable places for women and girls. #IWD
30 years as both a driver and a cyclist, and the biggest lesson I’ve learned is this:
Drivers do not have to overtake cyclists.
You can just wait behind them until it’s safe to pass.
Ive read that chat gpt is actually reasoning… it’s how it’s been designed to solve problems.
Is anyone else slightly unnerved (and impressed) by the way Chat GPT talks to itself when solving a problem ?
Very human “inner thoughts” vibe

My data point is 1: me.
To me it’s so obvious it’s much much safer.
But appreciate that’s just my lived experience and have no stats to back it up
These days I always cycle middle of the lane, or even further to the right of centre if parked cars. Not 100% safe but I believe much safer.
From what I see roughly 95% of cyclists are too near the edge of the road.

Interesting framing which certainly makes you think :)
I’d suggest the first 4 posts related to “electrify everything” could be achieved via “energy abundance”… eg triple the size of elec generation and at many time of day the marginal cost of elec is zero…everyone switches to elec as it’s cheap

(I don't even know why I'm arguing about this... I quite like kelvin. Celsius just seems more of a human scale day to day I guess)
"Wrap up warm dear and be careful it could be slippy out there, it's 273 outside"
Said no one ever 🤣
No way... I never knew that was a thing.
Maybe if it was fresh it would taste better.
[insert "hump" joke here]
Why should it be kelvin ? 🤔
I like 0 = ice.
100 = boiling

Litres. I don't make the rules 🤷♂️
Brilliant list, thanks for communicating it so clearly. Another huge thing is the circular economy. I love using examples like a council run swimming pool in Devon being heated by a data center (not AI). This reduces costs and emissions for both and everyone wins. These heat networks will only grow.
In the UK we need a lot of land in addition to the UK to satisfy this "need"
“Even for an intermediate emissions scenario [which is our current emissions pathway] the probability of AMOC shutdown is way above 50%”
(AMOC shut-down means Europe and parts of South-East Asia become uninhabitable, by the way.)

I assume you're using a 100 year GWP time horizon?
"If we can just appease them on this one thing maybe they will leave us alone?"
Nope, that's not how it works.
A good day to listen to our proud, joyous history of the BBC: One of the greatest British inventions of the 20th Century. An institution which, even at its worst, is far better than its detractors podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/t...
"We need to be pragmatic" followed by climate solutions denial
That would be awesome as it means we are there now commercially and can get on with mass roll out.
Energy abundance for all 👌🔥
Long term storage?
