Approval doesn't have to mean the same thing for everyone.

The beauty of it is that it doesn't have to be the same for everyone.

Some in your position would, some wouldn't. It's effectively stochastic sampled ranked choice across the population.

How is there any increased risk of "greater evil" winning from third party voting in approval voting?

There's a range of acceptance strictness among people. Some would only vote for their favorite. Some would vote for their favorite and someone who they're willing to accept. That naturally leads to the same ability to discern supp

I don't understand why so many people working for reform support ranked choice voting instead of approval voting, which on top of performing more consistently [0], is simpler to explain and understand. It only takes one sentence to des

I made a custom wooden computer case with 8 120mm fans and a furnace filter over the intake. The computer side is positive pressure and is as clean as the day I built it 4 years ago. I buy filters in bulk from McMaster Carr for $5 apiece.

It's almost certainly about location. Maybe there's some climate where good-tasting Red Delicious grows. I find that Fuji apples in the US are fairly bland, but when I was in Japan I had one from Aomori Prefecture. It was right up

Station keeping doesn't only involve drag; it involves rebalancing the orbital plane when a satellite fails; you also need to provision fuel to deorbit. The higher the orbit, the more fuel you need to deorbit.

Honeycrisps grown in the wrong climate are remarkably meh. Ones grown in the north to northwest are far better. Just today I found a sale on organic Honeycrisps from Washington State and they're outrageously good. The flesh is very swe

You can use fuel for station-keeping instead of orbit lifting.

It only checks that the output is sorted, not that it's a sorted version of the original string. The first answer that apparently works has a comment stating that it fails with more than 2 duplicates; indeed I tried a list with three 3

I'm finding it much quicker in just about every way than the old UI, using Firefox.

Any way to get a law in the books that specifies a minimum yellow light duration for a given speed limit? www.shortyellowlights.com/standards/ has a formula.

You can style the original Controls too, but I've never tried for a native look in my photo editor.

Another fun fact: you can replace the need for ullage acceleration with a Propellant Management Device that uses surface tension among other things to hold propellant enough to fuel an impulse that will settle the rest of the tank. http:&#

It isn't necessarily consistent. I used my coworker's iPhone yesterday, opening a link from a text message, and couldn't figure out how to go back to the message. Swiping in from the left side went back... within the browser,

In inconsistent places. In many UIs they're on the top left. In the browser it's on the bottom left? So weird.

It's great for power users. I personally really love it. But there goes the discoverability. The three nav buttons were simple and effective.

I'd love to have one too.

Sometimes I take a 20 minute nap at lunch time. Other times I'll go to sleep right after dinner, awaken around 11 PM, do stuff until 2, and then sleep until 7. I always feel well rested on days like either of those.

Right from the end of that forum post: >Inception V1 is a four year old architecture that Tesla is scaling to a degree that I imagine inceptions’s creators could not have expected. Indeed, I would guess that four years ago most people in

It's more about the "not-normal"-ness. The Insight looks like a sporty coupe. The XL1 and EV1 look like pills.

I wonder why they didn't include grille shutters and many of those other changes on the standard versions. (Yes, because it costs money. But the Teslas have all the aero optimizations on all versions.) I have seen grille shutters on C-

It doesn't count because they were able to change the form factor as they liked, whereas the Model S is a normal-looking sedan with fully exposed wheels.

by CarVac 8y ago
I say that the XL1 doesn't count. I didn't count the EV1 either, which had the same drag coefficient. But TIL about the CLA. Note: the CLA was tested at 0.30 drag coefficient by Car and Driver, though.

The door handles are probably a deliberate choice to get the drag down as low as possible, without the expense of motorized handles like the S or motorized doors like the X. No other cars on the road have drag coefficients as low as the Mod

Toyota's hybrid system differs from trains in that there's a direct mechanical connection from the engine to the wheels, boosting efficiency by not requiring all of the power to go through the motors.

I searched for photography and none of the regulars on /r/photography (including myself) came up.
