We're also allowed to make demands of the companies we work for. It's a two-way street. Companies only have power over us insofar as we allow them to have power over us

Reply to TIL that in WW2, a Marine Corps Corsair pilot used his propeller to chew off the tail of an enemy aircraft after his guns jammed, while under fire from the enemy plane's tailgunner. The enemy plane crashed but the Corsair pilot made it back to base, receiving the Navy Cross for his actions. by hipster_deckard
Naval Aviators are a very special breed of crazy.

I'm comfortable asserting that that ain't how it's gonna go.
Software is nearly free to replicate and apply. Anti-aging technology will manifestly not be. You've constructed a near-perfect example of false equivalence. A much better comparison would be the current-day bespoke treatments for rare disorders and cancers. I.e. the ones that run to tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars per treatment.

Pretty sure nothing they said tied their concerns about the battery to this particular issue. There are all sorts of valid reasons to not want a gigantic lithium battery in your house.

This makes me think we've found the point of diminishing returns with regard to road construction techniques and technology.
