Potential is a loan. Sooner or later somebody comes around to collect.
I regret to inform you that nobody cares about your potential. Potential is nothing without execution. When you're young, everyone cares about your potential. You get used to focusing on it. But as you get older, no one cares about your potential. Just your delivery against it.

One day before my daughter's due date, I told every new dad to read "Strong Fathers, Strong Daughters" by Dr. Meg Meeker. I read it before I ever held her. First girl or third, it will make you a better parent and a better human being. Full essay below 👇

No steering wheel, but you can check the rearview camera. Backseat driving has finally gone fully autonomous.
Tesla now let's you bring up the rearview camera view in the Cybercab during your ride. Sounds like there's also a new quiet mode that makes the whole Cybercab's screen dark if you're just trying to relax, sleep or you don't want the big bright display on at night.

Science keeps confirming what my morning already knew.
Coffee is repeatedly linked to lower type 2 diabetes risk, and the association is dose-dependent and consistent across populations and confounders. Also plenty of biological mechanisms as to why this might be so.

Perfect. No notes.
Correct. Using Starlink, a civilian commercial service, for offensive drone strikes to kill people has never been allowed, nor should it be. Starshield, a different system, is controlled by the US government. What they decide to do is up to them. Ukraine military violated Starlink terms of service and used it for offensive drone strikes to kill people. That loophole was closed last week. Starlink remains critical to the defense of Ukraine, as it is the only system that cannot be jammed or blown up, at least for now. Were Starlink to be turned off, the Ukrainian front line would collapse immediately. This is NOT a threat, it is simply a statement of fact. Starlink was also crucial to preventing Russia from overrunning Ukraine in the early days of the war, as all other means of communication were destroyed or jammed by Russia. SpaceX has done more to defend Ukraine than any private company on Earth BY FAR. That said, I have nothing but UTTER CONTEMPT for the virtue-signaling evil warmongers who push for endless slaughter and offer no realistic solution to the conflict. May you burn in hell. End of story.

Smallest square footage, longest commute, best view in the solar system. Realtors would call it cozy.

Promising news for runners. Every mile of pounding pavement may be anti-aging. The mice, I note, were not asked to do hill repeats.
Mechanical pressure on shin bones extended mouse lifespan by 80 days (+9.4%). That’s the human equivalent of 7–9 yrs. Bone pressure triggers PIEZO1 sensors to broadcast anti-aging signals to the brain, liver, and immune system. If this translates to humans, my dunk training is flooding my entire body with anti-aging juice.

Laws don't die of old age. A bad law lives forever unless someone bothers to repeal it. We have a whole machine for writing new laws and almost nothing for clearing out old ones. Every law should face regular review. Full essay below 👇

At this point the Texas DMV isn't reporting the numbers. It's doing a bit.
Tesla just registered another 69 Cybercabs for its Robotaxi fleet, bringing the total number of Cybercabs registered to date to 420, according to the Texas DMV. Yes, these are real numbers.
