What are the latest news updates?
Oh, no. We don't seem to be working. Well, I don't know if you can hear or see me, but it's not working on my end. I'm going to have to get out and get back in. Oh, there I am. Looks like we're here. Let me know if you see any major technical problems this morning. Well, stocks are mixed. Mine are up. But I hope yours are, too. All right, we got a show today. It's going to be the show of shows. Possibly one of the best things you've ever seen. Just got to make sure I can see all my comments. Everything's looking a little slow today.
Do-do-do-do-do-do.
Do-do-do-do-do-do. Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba. Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba. Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization. It's called Coffee with Scott Adams, and I'm pretty sure you've never had a better time. But if you'd like to take this up to levels that nobody can even understand with their tiny, shiny human brains, all you need for that is a cup or a mug or a glass, a tank of Charleston Stein, a canteen jug or a glass, a vessel of any kind, fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine at the end of the day, the thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip. It happens now. Darn it. Go. So good. All right. Ladies and gentlemen, would you like to find out what's in the news today? We'll start with some scientific golden age stuff.
What scientific advancements are discussed?
Did you know that higher caffeine consumption is associated with improved social cognition and executive function, according to the Journal of Psychopharmacology? Well, I wonder if there was a faster way to find that out. Yes, you could have asked me. Coffee makes you better in every way. Would you be surprised to know that there's a battery breakthrough? Yet another one. This one sounds pretty good. So according to Brighter Side News, there's a breakthrough that should extend electric vehicle range to over 3,000 miles on a single charge. So that would be 10 times what it is now. So they're looking at a 10 times improvement in technology. And all they did was... They engineered a special binding material that prevents a high-capacity silicon anode from expanding, which is exactly what I've been telling them to do. I mean, how long have I been saying? You're going to get a lot more energy out of these things if only you would engineer a special binding material that prevents a high-capacity silicon anode from expanding.
Kind of obvious if you think about it. But the result is a lithium battery with 10 times the capacity of those with Ordinary, old-fashioned graphite anodes. Ugh, ugh, graphite anode. Who wants that when you can have 10 times better? Well, here's another scientific study that they could have maybe ignored. Gilmore Health News reports that people are more likely to become friends with people who smell like them. So people are more likely to become friends with people who smell like them. Do you think that that science is reliable? Here's my first question. Don't you think you could reliably figure out who smells like you by looking at a picture of them? If I showed you a picture, let's say if you were 25 and I showed you a picture of another 25 year old person with the same cultural background, And then I showed you a picture of a 90-year-old person from a different cultural background. Which one would you think you would smell more like?
You probably smell like people who look like you and act like you and have your same background and culture, eat the same foods, the same part of life, so you sort of smell different when you're young. Maybe you have the same kind of bath products because young people would use a different set of colognes and things than old people would. Do young people use cologne? I don't even know if that's a thing anymore. But I'm going to say I don't believe the study because there would be too many things that would infect that study. By the time you smelled somebody, you've already seen them and probably made your decisions.
