Neural net calculations are pretty simple, just repeated many times over. Testing the silicon should be relatively simple compared to general purpose CPU or even GPU design.
We have a mouth full of small and wimpy teeth, optimized for eating cooked food and hunting with tools. I do agree that we are omnivores, but comparing our teeth to other animals isn't very useful to prove that.
Full motion compressed HD video is something like 25-40 megabits/second.
That's compressed, like you said. But before it goes to the display, it needs to be uncompressed, which involves a number of operations for each bit, involving multiple memory accesses.
This is probably one of the reasons a Tesla can only be serviced by one of their sparse service centers and not the average mechanic (another drawback to owning one).
No, that's just the consequence of EV vs ICE. There's not as much overlap in parts that require servicing.
If he acknowledges that the build quality has improved between first and current models, I wouldn't call that "eating crow". Except perhaps if you mean on Tesla's part.
So cleanup could be as simple as soap and water. Some CNC machines use IPA as a coolant simply because cleanup is super easy.
I am sure you can wash the chips, and get 99% of the coolant off. The problem is the remaining 1% that has chemically bonded with the titanium. Even small amounts of contamination can affect the quality of the end product.
Titanium chips from machining are contaminated with coolants and lubricants, as well as foreign materials. Recycling these chips is more expensive than making new titanium.
> Regen braking is shit for stopping a vehicle. It can slow a car down gently but it can't be used for emergency braking or to come to a complete stop.
Emergency braking is only done in emergencies. If you find yourself emergency braking on a regular basis, you need to reconsider how you drive.
Suppose you're going 45 mph, and you want to come to a complete stop in a normal manner. Suppose to do regen braking from 45 to 15 and then switch to 100% normal braking. You'll still recover almost 90% of the energy.

Anyway, as I pointed out, there are plenty of plants that support the body with B12.
Name one plant that makes B12, and provide a link to nutrition data please.
Yeast is single celled, but it's not a bacterium, and while yeast makes B-vitamins, none of the yeast strains make any B12.
You can buy yeast in the store with B12, but that's because it's been added by the manufacturer.
Yeast does not produce B12. Fermenting also does not produce B12. B12 is produced by a specific bacteria.

Starting pilots now make $24 an hour, which is slightly higher than a Walmart greeter:
Pilots have nicer uniforms.

It's the 10 nm/half a gate length process.
More than half the people in the US acknowledge they eat too much, but somehow are not stopping it.
Instead of all the modern artsy-fartsy stuff, let's see a robot paint a decent classical portrait.

He'll let you walk. Somebody else will buy the car.

You misspelled 'table'.
Do you know what 74 gallons look like?
Depends. Are we talking 74 gallons of tea, or 74 gallons of coffee ?
I'd like to see where you get a 90% return on regen braking.
I meant that 90% of the original kinetic energy is available on the input of the regen braking system. The usual losses apply after that.

Lubricating fluids are also a problem:

"I forgot" is a lame excuse. He should have said "I have no recollection of that".

Emergency braking is only done in emergencies. If you find yourself emergency braking on a regular basis, you need to reconsider how you drive.
Suppose you're going 45 mph, and you want to come to a complete stop in a normal manner. Suppose to do regen braking from 45 to 15 and then switch to 100% normal braking. You'll still recover almost 90% of the energy.
> there is no way today's electric grid would support cars gobbling up 70kwh worth in electric in a matter of 5 minutes
The grid can be improved.
Weight is less of a problem when you have regenerative braking. Also, electric motors weigh a lot less than the ICE.
You can milk just about anything with nipples.
Hubbert's theory of the future seems to be based on the false notion that conditions remain static
No, the model only applies to static conditions, but it doesn't say that the conditions will be static.
