mbin (For example fedia.io) federates with both Lemmy and Mastodon, and as a nice UI. I have a backup account on-it, worth a try

There is no complex algorithm, but community you follow, upvotes and time

300 light year is the planet direct neighbourhood, not intergalactic.

Nobody said supra conductors ?

While being used in some niche field (mostly MRI) the ultra-low temperature needed means there is only very few case where the price of cryo-cooler offset the elecricity costs

I’ve seen a road map at the start of iter which was actually more. 30 years to get a stable exo energetic plasma, then 30 years to build a demonstrator able to produce electricity, and then 30 years to have industrialised fusion plant.

The thing is how is a flying car different from a aircraft?

We have (ultra) light aircraft not much more expensive than a good car, we have helicopter with vtol abilities. Licencing isn’t that more complex than for a car.

The problem are the maintenance cost as a failure would be dramatic, and the noise meaning people don’t want them over their bacxyard/balcony

The very slow is the issue. Assuming we can reach 10-20% of c, we can reach a couple of nearby stars in 200 years (Wikipedia gives me 50 stars with 30 ly).

200 years is roughly the time from the Napoleonic era from today (Taking an Euro reference). Do you remember what your ancestor were doing during Napoleon Russian campaign or when US purchased Louisiana?

Society changed massively since Napoleon. Over 200 years the society culture of a generation ship would also drastically diverge from ours. Moreover, I can’t think of many piece of technology which can keep working for 200 years without a few massive overall.

I know enough physics to say no Even inter-Stellar is out of our reach (without generation ship).

We have zero reason to believe in an effective way to build wormhole, jump gates or anything similar. Even high energy cosmic rays have a limited range (due to collision with photons) which is a strong clue that there is no shortcut in space

While I can see many things with price tags well above 100 Million US$. Like planes, hospital, semi conductor lythography machine. A single person owning them is a problem per se.

Moreover, almost every serious project of super rich net worth tax isn’t capping your wealth, but just making sure you pay 1-2% of your net worth as takes which is still way less than everyone else, and won’t prevent you to get richer investment capital growth.

Depending who you ask,

Compared to a teen ? It’s old

Compared to a fresh retiree ? It’s young

To be the father of a 18 yeard old kid ? That’s prettty young

Objectively it’s prime adulthood

There is moment where biology comes into play. Pregnancy has major consequences for the person being pregnant . Not for The father, and once the kid is born, laws protects the kid. Having unprotected sex comes with risk, pretty minor compared to BASE jumping or riding a motorcycle but it can have massive lifelong consequences.

While technically illegal, men abandoning their kids aren’t that uncommon. They’re far on the asshole scale but they exist

Considering you do computer science not business/sales/purchasing you won’t be the face of the company, but one of the many underpaid corporate slave in a big open space.

They won’t care about an underwear photoshoot. Especially done in a professional contest

Define “AI” because any algorithm to upsample data and correct “compression artcfact” is generating/guessingdata to fill the gap.

Now, at which point does it stops being “interpolation” and does it become gen “AI”? That’s a philosophical question.
