New apartments = new babies = expensive apartments 20 years later, but with more traffic, pollution, and cost to the earth.

A man with no body fat is at high risk of death during a severe infection. Women might instinctively pick up on that. A dead man can’t provide or protect.

I believe this budget includes supercomputer based simulations for reliability without testing. But even if it's not 100% reliable, it still works as a deterrent. Why would the US start a nuclear war over reserve currency? You are an i

The total net worth of all U.S. households is close to $160 trillion. A trillion dollars over a decade (100B a year) as an insurance policy is a very good deal.

Who knows what kind of intelligence Russia has exfiltrated over that Internet line and that desktop.

Most of the time the state pattern obfuscates logic and makes the entire thing much harder to understand.

Google Maps has declined remarkably two or three years. It’s now an ML-brained mess. Like the rest of Google. Apple Maps is actually better now! That’s incredible.

There is plenty of air resistance in a low speed bus, which is shaped like a brick and has huge frontal area. That is still a lot of air to push.

The bus is constantly starting and stopping. Regen doesn't recapture it all. Power isn't the issue, energy is. Also, current hybrid busses with not-so-heavy batteries weigh about 15 tons without cargo. You are way off.

Yes, hydrogen cars clean the air as your drive them.

Downvoted for being the only accurate comment in this submission. HN is now full of simpletons.

In the digital age, we should have 2D timezones where the time is slewed ever so slightly every night at 3 a.m., so that 6 a.m. is always dawn. That is the future.

Hooray. That doesn't change the percentages from the article above.

It's a nod to the singularity (a.k.a. a black hole). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technological_singularity . That's all these AI people can think about. Makes sense to me. It's near!

Note, solar is only 7% and wind 8%. The rest is hydro and nuclear.

Git, still a ripoff of BitKeeper. All innovation begins as closed source.

GPLv3 is a legal landmine. In fact, GPL itself is wildly unpopular compared to more open licenses. The FSF is getting what it deserve here. Open source predates the FSF and will remain long after the FSF is dead.

The fact that Elon Musk panicked and sold X to xAI means that he is believes Tesla stock, which backed the original X deal, is weak and will fall. It's a very bearish signal for TSLA.

Dupe of https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43476793 Decades have passed and HN still can’t automatically dedup submissions.

It's a convenient theory, but if the refresh were the only reason for the dip in sales, Trump wouldn't be on the Whitehouse lawn begging people to buy Teslas, like the corrupt car salesman he is.

If this was just the Model Y refresh, Trump wouldn't be on the Whitehouse lawn telling people to buy Teslas, like the corrupt car salesman he is.

Sure, but you can't cite this puzzle as proof that this model is "better than 95+% of the population at mathematical reasoning" when the method of solving (the "answer") it is online, and the model has surely seen i

It's pretty obvious that it means gold has appreciated. In fact, it's up 37% this year. There is laziness here, but it's not the reporter's.

It’s funny how the author has the chutzpah to simultaneously insult Apple and while also failing to replicate what they have done.

That's like saying companies you worked for couldn't exist without indoor plumbing (which is what OSS effectively is). Yet the earliest company was founded in the year 578 AD, and other massive organizations (like empires) existed

Yes, $2.8B per developer is a clear indication that this study is delusional. The entire global wealth of the world is 450 trillion. Open source is 2% of that? I don't think so. Wealth includes labor, land, materials, homes and buildin

There are better, valid reasons to oppose building more housing. Put simply, building more housing solves housing affordability just like building more roads solves traffic. It doesn't! Cheaper housing = more kids = just-as-expensive h

That's what you get when Tesla maintains a monopoly on service of their cars. Suppressed information, hidden recalls. The dealership model is more open and the power balance makes it harder to mask problems.
