It’s super depressing to see people in tech dunking on this.
Is it perfect? No. But it’s hard as hell to build this and it is definitely moving us closer to where we want to be.
Anyone who has ever shipped hardware has respect for this. Fuck the haters.
regarding Snapchat glasses, I think ppl are really missing the forest for the trees by focusing on the current look of the glasses, which they can improve and modify over time.
the underlying tech and overall product vision (no pun intended) looks awesome
@GerberKawasaki I dont think they are meant to look good. Look at all the tech they packed in. Its actually pretty impressive. Quest like experience without goggles, pretty neat
@StockMarketNerd Yo they actually arent bad for what they are. Quest type of experience in a set of glasses? This is pretty good tech. Of course they will be bulky

AI is like my new best friend that also might be trying to take my job, my ability to think for myself, and my humanity in the process. Yo like I love you, but WTF, but I still love you.
Diversity is actually awesome! The opposite is boring AF.
Canadians are super fucking cool.

Freedom of religion and coexistence without having to blow each other up is probably a good idea.
We all question, are we alone in the universe?
We all fuck up along the way.
Epstein didn’t hang himself.

Me.
Laptop.

SPACEX: Louisiana State Senator Bob Hensgens, who represents Vermilion Parish, confirmed yesterday, ongoing talks between "a space exploration company" and Exxon-Mobil for the potential purchase of 136,000 acres south of Hwy La. 14, west of Intracoastal City, north/south of Pecan Island, extending to Rockefeller Wildlife Refuge in Cameron Parish.
The land is owned by Exxon-Mobil with surface rights managed by Vermilion Corporation. Hensgens could not name the space company, but stated he declined to sign a non-disclosure agreement for transparency purposes.
There is also talk about the possible construction of a coastal levee. The area is prone to hurricanes, so this would be a necessity.
