I really enjoyed this video, but one thing bugs me a bit. Why does he specifically call attention to Tesla as a brand and not Luminar? If he's trying to be scientific about the technology, it should be "lidar vs imaging". Or if he does want to call out brands, "Luminar vs Tesla". Not that I'm defending Tesla, but this just seems weird to me when his videos are typically more educational.

Guy doesn't seem to understand what a "work persona" is. I wouldn't want to date my own work persona let alone anyone else's.

At my school, they showed a video about all the different parts of the cell where each part was a character with a different "job" and looking back it was pretty racist. I specifically remember that the Lysosome was a garbage man with a Mexican accent. Very cool science video for children... very cool 🫤

I worked 4 day weeks (32hr) for a year in 2023. It was the best and I would absolutely take a pay cut to have it again. I don't have much to add that others haven't already said. I used it to do more hobbies, chores before the weekend, doctors visits or other weekday appointments, or sometimes I would pick up freelance work so I could have a little extra cash for say Christmas gifts. People also typically don't plan things for Fridays, so it really did feel like I had 1 day each week that was truly mine to do what I wanted.

I don't think lucky charms does, but you can buy off brand marshmallows online. I think I found a 2lb bag of them on Amazon once.

It wasn't too intuitive. If we looked at a car, we would specifically look for how to adjust basic things like climate, volume, etc. then based on what we found we would mark it as "yes" for has all standard knobs/buttons, "no" for does not have them which includes touch buttons or anything else not tactile, or "hybrid" meaning some standards are tactile and some are not. I would list the Prius we got as hybrid, but enough of what I needed were in button form to make me happy.

I ended up buying the new Prius. Not perfect, but it has knobs and buttons for everything important you might immediately want to adjust while driving.

I bought a new car last year. When we were researching and narrowing down options, I had a column on my spreadsheet for physical buttons/nobs/etc. It's incredible how many cars now do not have physical implements for things you can easily do while watching the road. So that became a requirement. We needed a minimum amount of physical buttons/etc for vital things like lights, wiper blades, volume, and climate control. But seriously, the amount of cars that don't have those things anymore is quite astounding.

No, I believe that's a bullet proof east.
