Yes, I was impressed with this number as well. I wonder when we'd reach 75-80%, but I believe the zero-carbon electricity target is 2045?

I agree that at prices that are close to $1k, I'm not sure if Chromebooks make a lot of sense. I see the value of it for K-12 students when everything is done in Google Suites and the price is closer to the $500 range.

Yes, I found that a lot of people are hesitant to ask questions when there are many people in the room (tbh sometimes even I feel like my questions may sound stupid when I'm the attendee). So I always hang around in the room/hallway so people can come and talk to me.

As someone noted, I always have my contact information (e.g., a LinkedIn profile) in my slide so people can reach out to me after the event and I actually had good conversations with people after conferences. Not only do I get feedback/questions on my presentation, but I get to expand my network.

I think this is something that will probably change especially with younger people (or children). Once self-driving becomes mainstream, a lot of people may not see the point of doing manual driving.

Up until about a decade ago, I insisted on getting cars with a manual transmission as I wanted more control over my car. I definitely don't think that way anymore with all the advances in transmission technologies...

Backs up the confidence that EV manufacturers have with their warranties. I have a '22 Kia EV6 (pretty much the same car as Hyundai Ioniq 5) and their battery warranty is 10 years or 100k miles.

How can locations be labeled secret (for 29 data centers)? Aren't there hearings or filings for proposed data centers?

And if you wait a few months, you will find several other alternatives in the market at a more reasonable price. I learned not to jump on the Dyson bandwagon with their vacuum cleaners.

It's going to be difficult not to be "fluffy" as no one really knows the true impact and what's going to happen. And it's especially challenging for universities as voices questioning the value of higher education will only grow louder.

And even open source software such as OpenClaw encourages people to use WhatsApp and it's hard to escape.
