Building from scratch is much easier / when you can demolish everything that pre-exists. I don’t think this is realistic in already-developed areas where home values may already be very high. Not aware of the Gary story! Would be curio

Ooof. But hey, tastes could change! I’m really curious how the brand reputations will carryover in the EV era… All the reputations that car brands have are from their legacy of existing products. Who’s to say if they will continue in the sa

Fascinating! But does this only apply if the company is incorporated in that particular state? If there is any state that doesn’t adopt the new law structure, then companies will just re-incorporate to that other state. Of course, not every

My admiration of Honda and Toyota comes from their hybrid offerings, probably the most practical kind of car to get. EVs have the charging requirement, so it’s a lifestyle / home setup adjustment. Plus, other trade-offs like being way

This is an interesting point I think for direct comparison, the way of re-animating the brain described in the article would need to be attempted on the cardiac arrest patient as well so as to be sure it isn’t a “revival”-capable method Mig
