Not joking. Sammy would have one set of 23 chromosomes from his haploid cell. His wife would have 23 chromosomes from HIS haploid cell. OK. That makes 46. But, would this work? Can one create a human this way? =============== The answer is YES...it works with mice.... It is conceivable (that is a PUN, Sir)..... And, the question is: Is Sammy a man or a mouse? We already have the technology to try this. The question is, will we. If BOTH Sammy and his Wife want to try, then the tech is definitely there. But, did he?

Exactly. The solution is so very simple. And, this best solution is just staring everyone in the face. So then...why debate it further? And, why protest? Anyone with a doctor's prescription will have easy access, and the substance/quality can be controlled. Stringent Quality Control is a wonderful thing.

Dear Folks, I guess the world will never forget the day Arnold Schwarzenegger gave birth to a fine, healthy baby girl. At the time, I thought the world was not ready for such shenanigans. Recently, I have read that Sam Altman has given birth, and I just wonder how that works? For example, I guess we have all studied a bit of genetics and human anatomy. And I find it puzzling how Sam and his wife gave birth, since both Sam and his wife are biologically male. Was there some cloning involved, maybe? So then, maybe Sam contributed some genetic info from his haploid cells, and his partner made up the difference from HIS haploid cells. And then what? Yes, Folks, reality is becoming ever stranger than fiction in this New Brave World in which we live. Also, it seems that Sammy has now seen the light concerning what it might mean to be human, or at least he talks about this in one of the interviews I found here: Still, Arnold’s birth-video is far more fun to watch. And, we can also sit and wonder what this might mean for the World of AI, especially at OpenAI, after this momentous occasion. There is nothing quite so miraculous as being able to pass down one’s genes to the next generation. And, I guess, in some cases this becomes a real POWER TRIP. So, how do you think this happened? And, will this change our world? This is just one more reason why I love Musk: He has no qualms about having babies the traditional way. I hope all goes well, whatever happens. Best regards, Gamma

Not sure what might have lead you to this mistaken conclusion.

My answer is NO. Not yet. However, it can be tweaked if you use the better AI, which is Gemini. Gemini, mostly, is just better used for an amusing hour, or two, exploring various topics. Gemini acts like a Mirror on One's Soul. Gemini will help one reflect on one's thinking and views about any given topic. Therefore, Gemini can be quite useful if used in this way. I don't like others to edit my writing. I don't use Gemini for writing.

What is the average fertility rate of the migrants now flooding into the UK? This might be even more concerning.

Trump is a winner. I feel safe with Trump at the helm. IF Trump does not get elected in 2028, then.... It will be time to head underground, and form a new government, either democratic, or run by Musk.

Before it's too late, you mean. Yes. I agree.

Those concrete power poles don't seem very resilient or sturdy. Maybe they should make them round, and also increase the diameter of each pole. And, maybe add more high-grade rebar, too.

As you can imagine, personally, I worry a great deal about.... GAMMA-RAY Irradiation ..... caused by bursts from some unidentified SUPERNOVA, which we know will happen anytime now. If we go one-mile underground, and build a One Million Size City, down there, with factories and robots to do most of the work... Then, after one thousand years, we can return to the surface of Earth and start again. Seems to me this is the most urgent decision we can make. FIRST: Build city underground NEXT: Or concurrently, head to Mars. I think that Musk is being shortsighted putting all his eggs in one possible solution, which is the Mars Missions.

Not as often as I should, obviously.

Yes. I considered this. But, this is really such a minor issue, comparatively. If I want to do the same, then I will need to buy a laptop.

Is this why the power here failed yesterday afternoon?

Best to just stay off the weed, and solve the problem this way. There must be a very small minority of local inhabitants who are overly interested in smoking weed. And, in my view, the tourists can return to their home countries to smoke up a storm, if they choose.

First Rule: Never live in a Condo Building in Thailand

Why not just buy a gel preparation to perform at-home fluoride treatments? Or, just them them done at your dentist's?

Correct. When it comes to Mars, Elon has a one-track mind. There will be Nuclear War. Nuclear war will be completely devastating. However, Elon should FIRST, as soon as possible, begin designing and building a city underground, ON EARTH, just for practice. Such as city, according to Elon, must have a population of about 1 Million, just to ensure self-sustainability. Far easier to practice building a test city on Earth than to wait and try to build the first one on Mars. There mush be many advantages. And, at one-mile down, such a city on Earth would be impervious to threats from Nuclear War. Even a hit from an asteroid, one mile down, would be like water off a duck's back. Probably best to locate the city in solid-granite, or something.... Please do not forget: We will need to build and duplicate factories down there, too.

Quite fascinating. I would be interested to learn more about your project, teaching online, in a place that presents so many serious challenges. This really cannot be easy. And, just getting your passport updated seems to the least of the challenges, though that in itself seems rather challenging, based on this thread.

Dear Folks, For some reason, members here on TV seem to believe that TESLA is planning to manufacture and sell super-cheap, self-contained houses to be put on lots which do not exist. Maybe a good idea for Saudi Arabia with all that land covered with sand, but Arabia is a wasteland anyway, and nobody cares. BUT, would it not be better to convince Musk to use his BORING COMPANY to start building underground? I like the idea of living underground. And, I think that THX-1138 was very much mistaken when he chose to leave the underground tunnels to "escape" to the world above ground. So, this idea that Musk will start to manufacture TESLA boxes is completely false, it seems. And, This video is completely misleading. HOWEVER, what if Musk began a SURGE to design and construct an underground city, and to put his BORING COMPANY to good use? Would you move underground? I would for many reasons. No noise down there, for one. We could have super-fast elevators to take us down at least a mile, and the commute from the surface to that depth would take only about 30 seconds, at 120 MPH. No vibration from trucks, or road noise down there, for sure. No airplanes flying overhead. And, no train horns, or freight cars. And, it would be easy to hollow-out a very large cave for not much money. Plus, there would be no building permits a mile-down. So many advantages. Would you buy? Can we, do you think, petition Musk to consider this? And, no more 911 threats or Nuclear Bomb worries if we lived a mile-down. I think that Musk should first go-down before he goes up to Mars. Do you agree? Best regards, Gamma PLEASE NOTE: THE BORING COMPANY is a cool company with a great premise..... Go Down. Going down, is the way to go.... https://www.boringcompany.com/tunnels CONCERNING TEMPERATURE GRADIENTS, the deeper you go: Obviously, nobody will need to heat their dwellings down there. On the contrary, at a mile down, it might be a bit too hot for some..... Being farther from Heaven, I mean....

So, you need to share the wifi hotspot from FOUR phones to the laptop just to get decent internet on your laptop for video conferencing? Sounds rather complicated.

How does it makes sense for you to teach online in Burma? Is the electric power delivery super stable there, or something? Just curious.

Do they include meals with the hotel when staying at the Britannia? The UK is doomed.... DOOMED, I say.

A giant wheel of STILTON cheese.

Yes. Because, as far as I know, this is NOT a Tesla product. There seems to be at least one other company using the Tesla name. How and why, I am not sure.

Not this time. But, sometimes.
