Man filming threatens to cut another subway passenger's face open for asking him to turn his speaker off.

I love video games. I met my husband because he hired me to QA for a Sims game. I was a game designer for companies like Zynga and EA. I was a writer on State of Decay 2. And I still have never loved games like I've seen the way men love games. I was surrounded by men who would eagerly work on min-max spreadsheets during their lunch break. One designer had a cabinet full of games that he would replay over and over again to study the levels. They'd go home from making games to play more games. Honestly, it's a big reason I quit game design. I didn't have that obsessive, compulsive desire to play games in a way that superseded everything else in my life. Lots of women play videogames. I've never seen one consumed by them as their life falls apart around them.

We're building a surgical robot capable of reaching any brain region. The goal: a generalized neural interface to help solve any condition that originates in the brain.

There are only two honest metrics when it comes to benchmarking intelligence: novelty and efficiency. You don't need intelligence to solve a known problem (only memory). And you don't need intelligence to solve a problem via brute force. But to solve a novel problem efficiently, intelligence is the only way.

i ate 6-12mg of xannys every single day for eleven years and quit cold turkey with no problems. this sounds like a skill issue unfortunately.

After 1,000,000+ engineering hours, we're ready to give an update on what we've been making and how. Construction is the largest, least productive industry on Earth, and it’s starting to affect housing. We're here to fix that. Thesis: We can build quality homes — any type — faster and cheaper than most of the industry through industrialization. Here's how: Construction's biggest problem is logistics: getting the right materials, people, and information in the right place at the right time. So we invented a new type of manufacturing, Mobile Micro-Factories — small, modular, local factories that make and prepare every part of a home, then deliver it in stages, last-mile, to the site ready to assemble with non-specialized labor. We’re built to scale fast — we can quickly copy our factories into hundreds of markets worldwide. This is a really hard problem to solve; we're going to get there. We'll walk through the nuances in more detail over the next few weeks. Full film dropping soon.
