That's not how I read that. This statement from the EPA is the crux of it: "Most cybersecurity practices can be implemented at minimal cost."; a statement that anyone involved with software/cybersecurity knows has never

There's only one reason why US cars are more expensive than CN cars: People will pay it. All that other stuff is window dressing. The US is way, way better at financial engineering than China; we can sell an $80,000 Tahoe to a single m

While he did say that, its worth pointing out that Tesla also said that more affordable options will be available in 2025H1 [1]. Given Musk's statement, what I think Tesla means by this is more affordable trims of existing models. I do

I think the disconnect is maybe just in the title: Lucid is obviously just trying to be the next Mercedes. Duh, of course they don't make a cheap car (how much did Lucid pay for this ad in the WSJ?); but their competitors kind of do. T

Because it was being addressed before the defunding? I mean... clearly not. They haven't been defunded yet. The issue is unlikely to be money, nor is it likely to be technical. If throwing ever-increasing amounts of money at the prob

Woah, we just speedran "low information is racist" to "poor people are stupid", I've never seen anything like it.

Its a ghost kitchen. It isn't 30 restaurants, its one restaurant with 30 brands. This idea was tried years ago (they'd claim to be the first) by a company based out of Indianapolis named Clustertruck ( https://www.cluste

I did not say it was evidence. I actually stated it was a quite poor source; but that it is at least illustrative of the point.

Its actually much scarier than that: the trend started reversing ~2017, COVID accelerated it, and it hasn't recovered post-COVID. Naturally, changes to any sufficiently complex system take years to truly manifest their impact in broad

I think the real reason is mostly obvious to anyone who is looking: Its the rise of the bureaucracy. Its the same thing that's strangling education, and basically all other public resources. The automation, and now AI, we've adopt

Ok, fine, but how do you vibe your sense of "automation and AI will help drive down the cost of healthcare" with the absolute undeniable reality that healthcare has been adopting automation for decades, and over the decades it has

You won't receive better outcomes in this world. The people in charge will simply change what they're measuring until the outcomes look better.

Would you mind sharing information about this Florida law which bans transgender people from appearing in public? I tried Googling for it, but only found one which restricted access to transgender surgery for minors.

I don't perceive this to be happening in any systemic way. I think (in fact, I know) that social media is really good at magnifying the extremes, and the extremes of the right are scary, mean, and evil. That doesn't remotely repre

You're misunderstanding my motivation. I am a progressive. I'm obviously dissatisfied with the results of this election. But I'm even more dissatisfied with the reaction I'm seeing from the left. I cannot and won't

Your feelings are within your control. So: be an adult and control them. In this case that oftentimes means: Do research. Consume media from as many sources as possible. Do research. Try to find the good. Do research. Channel your feelings

Has this happened in a non-isolated fashion? Please cite examples.

All true, and I feel there's hope that this is the wake-up call the American left needs; that if they keep playing the role of the centrist establishment what they end up crafting is a super boring campaign that no one feels the passio

Exit polling yesterday didn't really indicate that, despite it being a big part of Trump's rhetoric. It more-so indicated that the economy and democracy (anti-establishment) were the most important issues.

The number of republicans in a fifty mile radius of you, or even across the country, did not change between yesterday and today. What happened during your local government elections yesterday? State government? There is nowhere to run to. W

I'm not doubting that Albertsons is holding this lease, nor am I doubting that the reason they're doing it is to directly stifle competition. I literally said this in my comment. What I will absolutely cast doubt on is that its th

While holding a lease on prime competitor real estate seemingly strictly for the purpose of stopping competition from moving in feels very, very scummy; it also feels like it isn't the whole story. Competitors don't need to move i

Not true, obviously: M4 Max in the new Macbook Pros has been benchmarked to be faster [1]. Its not just a little faster than the #2; looking at ~15-20% uplifts in both single and multi compared to the previous kings. The previous production

The probability of this happening at random is around 1 in 250 million (if you care that the hash prefix is all zeroes, versus just all the same character: 1 in 4 billion). Github has officially announced that they have over 100 million act

You're probably right (and I do use the term "probably" in a rigorous way to mean, statistically, when there are 10 pollsters and 1 reports different data, they are statistically less likely to be correct). However: Many woul
