I like his sarcasm.
George misstated what happened to his engine. See video. I'm guessing that's not the only thing he misstated.
Ah, indeed:
Today, more than a quarter of all new code at Google is generated by AI, then reviewed and accepted by engineers. This helps our engineers do more and move faster.
Sounds like bs to me, comes across as marketing talk to promote their AI offerings.
He assumed the rules don't apply to him. Rules are for the people you don't like.
it gives a false sense of cleanliness and makes people not wash their hands as often as they should.
To expand in that. If someone wears gloves and touches e.g. raw chicken and then something else it'll contaminate it and anything they'll touch afterwards.
People asking for gloves are usually misguided. As said, due to gloves they'll not charge gloves or wash when needed. And that's pretty often.
Strangely there's some huge craziness where there's loads of comments that ask for gloves and think it'll improve hygiene. While to me gloves indicate a poor hygiene understanding.
I feel like this is something that won't really happen.
Similar things were said about abortion.
That's the intention behind that back to work decision.
In Rotterdam (Netherlands) they're replacing the sewage system. People get a letter that they're responsible for the bit on their ground. In practice the city also handled the line to the house.
I don't understand why in your area they'd not take care of that bit. With everything mostly open it should be much easier anyway.
That the city doesn't promise anything is likely for things like liability and unique/expensive exceptions. But not doing that in practice, so strange.
Why do you assume the West? China often expands to other Asian countries. Or pretend to. E.g. after tariffs are applied to China you'll often see a huge increase in intra Asia trade. Followed by different Asian countries heavily increasing their exports. Usually by hiding the true origin (tariffs are applied to the origin, not some transhipment place).

Not if you are a grifter and have leverage on the other person.
Wondering if you really meant that word or if it's a typo.
Agreed, it's so unfortunate they didn't win everything last year.
Heat pump installation doesn't have to be expensive through it is. Try looking up what it'll cost you in Spain to install a split level airco that can handle heating as well. That's an air/air heat pump. Or check what it'll cost you to just buy the airco/heat pump. Then compare that to your country. There can be crazy differences in what they charge you.
Subsidies, the installers will know about it, they can just charge more.
No idea of a solution. But do know people are paying way more than they should.
The ag lobby told him there's an ocean of fresh water
I'd say that he just says whatever. If it'll get him more popular and/or more money then there's no need to figure out if he actually believes something or not. It usually is self serving in some way, truth doesn't matter.
A salary maximum (as per the article) of 79k USD per year seems low. This as the accident rate amongst longshoremen can be significantly higher than average. It's often not reported on enough (at least in Europe) but significant injuries and deaths happen often enough. This partly because (obviously) a mistake has way more consequences on a terminal vs e.g. working in an office.
That's a stupid way to eliminate efficiency
In case of port/terminal automation the workers usually do not benefit. So it seems pretty understandable that they're against it.
In Europe there's way more automation. Still, workers often tried to prevent it.
In Netherlands the fixed cost for city based heating is paid by the people who make use of it. That seems fair, but practically it means that it'll be cheaper for people to arrange their own heating system and rely on electric heating. This because the fixed cost is high. However, if everyone switches to using electricity the city based heating would overall be much cheaper solution than relying on electricity. This as currently loads use a gas solution and there's a huge cost involved to upgrade the electricity network.
The city based heating variable price is connected to the gas price. So even if city based heating per kWh equivalent would be cheaper, people wouldn't notice or get the advantage.
As a result, city based heating is very unpopular. Planned projects to switch entire neighbourhoods have been cancelled. Again, logical because people were really upset to pay significantly more despite insulating their entire home.
Seems that in Netherlands they'll ignore the problem and have the country be less cost effective and upgrade the electricity network for significantly more money.
The Dutch Financial Times did a few articles on above in the last 12 months or so.
Have you had CPR training? What you stated isn't true. Every second counts. But looking up instructions and seeing a easy video will still help massively.
im qualified enough to know better
Maybe if you make YouTube videos you'd achieve that.
Regarding experts, there's so many topics where experts are ignored.
