What is the current state of the stock market?

Scott Adams 0:00
Let's check on the stock market. It looks a little bit flat. That's all right. It was up yesterday. So let's check on our comments, make sure I can see what you're saying. I have to warn you that today my mental capacity is about 50% normal. So if I sound like a host on MSNBC... It's not your imagination. 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 a chance on rising... Let's say lifting. Lifting your experience to new levels. All you need is a cup or a mug or a glass or tank or gels for starting a canteen, jug or flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee.
Scott Adams 1:16
And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better. It's called, that's right, the simultaneous sip. And it happens now. Go. Go. All right, now I'm good. I wonder if there are any scientific studies that they didn't need to do because they could just ask me. Oh, here we go. Eric Nolan in SciPost is writing.

What is the simultaneous sip?

Scott Adams 1:51
There's a new study that says that sexual activity before bed Improves objective sleep quality. So did anybody besides me know that sex before bed allows you to get to sleep better? Apparently it works whether you have a partner or not. Is there anybody who didn't know that? That might be the most well-known fact in all of human history. You could look for the rest of your life trying to find somebody who didn't know that, and you would never find anybody who didn't know it. And they did a study on it. Oh, my God. Okay. Well, Starship launch was either successful or unsuccessful, depending on how you define success. If you're a business insider, you'd say it was unsuccessful because you don't like Elon Musk.

But if you were more science and technology oriented, you'd say it got further than ever before, and they learned a bunch of things, and they're well along. In other words, it was a failure that taught them a bunch of things, which is why they do it. They're trying to learn a bunch of things so that the next time they do it, it gets a little bit further.

What new technology is changing heating and cooling?

Scott Adams 3:31
So let's call it a success because they learned a bunch of things and they got further than they've been before. Speaking of Elon Musk, it makes me think of Tesla. which makes me think of this new feature. Sawyer Merritt's talking about this on X. Apparently, your Tesla will soon be able to identify if you left a child in your car. So if you leave a child unattended in your car...
Scott Adams 4:38
11? 10? How does it know? I don't know. It seems like a step forward, so I'm not going to mock it. Probably will save lives. The other thing it might do is drive it home. It could just drive it home and unlock the door or roll down the windows. Don't you think it could roll down the window a little bit? I don't know. There's a lot of ways that could have gone. Well, here's the nerdiest sounding thing that might be a really big deal. Let's see if I can make this make sense. According to interesting engineering, there's a new stretchable metal. Pretty exciting, huh? Yeah, when you decided to watch this podcast, you said to yourself, I wonder if there's any new stretchable metals. Well, it turns out there is.
Scott Adams 5:37
And there's a special metal that delivers, believe it or not, 90% of the Carnot efficiency for heating and cooling. Well, that's pretty amazing. Yeah, no, 90% of the Carnot efficiency. That's a thing, I guess. And it's 20 times better than traditional alloys. All right, so the bottom line is that there's a new technology that seems practical that would just gigantically change your ability to do heating and cooling and make a heat pump that works with regular electricity but is way, way, way, way more efficient Now imagine what would happen to our energy needs if we could cool things and heat things way, way, way, way, way better than we ever have before. Well, that's coming up. So you remember how L.A. Mayor Karen Bass was bragging that things were going well in the Palisades and the rebuilding and the issuing of permits? Well, she caught a little bit of heat for that, according to the New York Post.
