I actually searched this (or something similar) and got nothing!

not particularly fast

Everything I’ve heard about the ZR1 is generally positive. I was under the impression that it was very competitive with other “super cars” often for substantially less money.

colloidal?

I always have a hard time interpreting these types of article because they make the headline sound outlandish then don’t go into all the details of the data/survey method. I’ve heard anecdotally that sometimes these surveys will have a narrow scope, like “can’t cover a $1k expense” is only considering money in checking accounts because it would take some time to transfer money from savings or other accounts so these funds are not counted. Or they will report living paycheck to paycheck because they have no money left over after expenses but the expenses include X% contribution to retirement accounts. This article says “29 percent of consumers entered 2025 barely surviving on their paychecks” so they are currently using up all of their pay on expenses and not contributing to savings but how many of those same people have savings built up from prior years that they could draw on?

Just based on personal experience I could believe that a large number of Americans really are living paycheck to paycheck and would have trouble covering a major expense. But if this is true I would also think it should manifest in the economy as something like loan defaults, bank failures, mortgage foreclosures, huge drops in revenue for companies selling consumer goods, etc. and I haven’t seen it. Are these respondents wrong and they actually can cover a $1k emergency expense? Are they just never encountering a $1k emergency expense? Such a huge number of people living in such a precarious state and the overall economy continues to function more or less normally?

Unfortunately I don’t. I’ve only seen a couple youtube videos covering it and other similar mesh networks (LoRa). I’m getting more and more tempted to buy some hardware and find out how it actually works though.

1. I don’t know where you are that a sled full of beers looks like $50. I don’t think I could even get that many Coors banquets for $50.
2. Beers at a brewery or stadium can easily be $10-20 each. I wouldn’t be surprised to find similar prices at a ski lodge.

Does expensive oil help Russia? I presume that it would. Probably doesn’t hurt the Muskrat either.

I think they’ve been trying to print more money so everyone can just have more but it doesn’t seem to be going well for some reason.

I agree with the general sentiment here but just wanted to clarify that they definitely didn’t “solve protein folding” yet. Alpha fold is a significant improvement in structure prediction and it generated a lot of hype but some of the structures I’ve seen it put out are total nonsense.
