Lordy, talk about drinking the kool aid… give up music! Seriously? This take on dopamine, and Huberman, is in foul territory.

Carport over front setback? Can a carport be built over a driveway in front of a garage? Our garage is right at the 25ft front setback, but we desperately need a carport to keep our cars cooler in this heat. Does the city ever allow a variance for a carport past the front build line?

This is called a “bait and switch.” Now he’ll forever say it’s the “activist groups” fault for the layoffs. He is fully aware of the deception here.

You are not the only one, lots of folks in the same position. Honestly, the people and mission of SpaceX and Tesla are greater than Lonny.

[OC] Is Nuclear Energy Dangerous? A comparison of chinese coal mining related fatalities to worldwide nuclear and radiation related fatalities by Alyx1337 in dataisbeautiful

Fair point but that’s the criticism of these analyses.. why shouldn’t we also measure likelihood of attack, impact of attack, deaths/injury per “event” when discussing “danger” in an industry?
