In this scenario, you've got water and electricity readily available, seems like it would be straightforward to have small pumps and sprinklers. When the output from the panels drops below expected levels, automatically turn on the sprinklers for a bit to rinse them off.

I detected a hint of sarcasm / sneer in her tone at "urban problems", but yeah, she really lacks any self awareness at all.

Don't apologize. It's good content and should be seen.

The NEXUS is cheaper than PreCheck, and it gives you NEXUS, PreCheck, and GlobalEntry privileges. I have no idea why the deal is so good, but if you're in driving distance of Canada, it's totally worth it.

15 exabytes sounds low. Rough math, 1 20 TB hard drive per physical machine with 50,000 physical machines is one exabyte raw storage. I bet 50,000 physical machines is a small datacenter for Google.

Baking the cake is definitely not speech ( although I appreciate your point about this Court interpreting it that way).

However, decorating the cake could reasonably be construed as speech, especially if there is text, logos, etc in the decoration.

There's some truth to that. The computers I was first exposed to costs thousands of dollars and all you got was a text console with a prompt. You had to figure out how to make the magic box do something meaningful.

Now a Raspberry Pi computer with 1000x more compute power, memory plus network connectivity costs $6. The equivalent of the computers I originally learned to program on is now basically a disposable commodity.

AV1 is the shit. Still doesn't have broad support on consumer devices yet, but it will come.

My neighborhood has roundabouts. A couple of times when there's not any traffic around, I've let autopilot attempt to navigate them. It works, mostly, but it's quite unnerving. AP wants to go through them ready faster than I would drive through them myself.
