Instead of regulating specific areas we think pollute more than they are worth, we should just have a cap-and-trade system for carbon emissions. Let people decide if it is worth it for them to pay for the emissions caused by Bitcoin, or spo

In 2016, Prokopowicz and Berg-Andreassen defined a container ship with a capacity of 10,000 to 20,000 TEU as a Very Large Container Ship (VLCS), while that with a capacity greater than 20,000 TEU as an Ultra Large Container Ship (ULCS) Th

I said they are not reallocating resources which would have gone towards those things. Unless the person buying the NFT has a greater chance of spending it on the poor than the person selling it, nothing has really changed as far as our spe

Well purchasing an NFT doesn't really reallocate any resources that would have gone to those things, so I don't think it's a huge issue. They are just transferring money from one person to another, essentially.

In the video I actually do see the yellow outline if I really turn up the resolution, it's super faint though, hard to tell if it is there the whole time. Easier to see in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uClWlVCwHsI ,

According to what I've seen people saying online, in most of these cases Tesla does identify the vehicle but it identifies it as going in the wrong direction so doesn't think it is a problem for pathfinding. Vehicles going in the

This [0] is much worse than the video in the article, IMO. It repeatedly tries to pull out in front of cars going 45+ miles an hour, in some cases giving the driver very little time to stop it. For level 5 (what Elon keeps claiming they wil

According to Elon, they will be rolling this out to everyone who purchased FSD in the next few days. Which seems quite a bit early to me given that it still frequently tries to kill you (and others), although he claims the next update will

The idea of generating energy from people is actually kind of interesting because it's something that we already do at the gym. We have all these weights and machines to have people expend as much energy as they can, but don't cap

This is why I switched over to a VOIP number instead. SMS works everywhere I have internet, and if I have to I just pick up a data-only sim card for wherever I am. Can even check my messages online. Probably not as secure, and wouldn't

Sounds like a real world case of the trolly problem. Either take no action (by giving out no vaccine) and let hundreds die each day, or give out the vaccine and kill a few people each day (assuming the vaccine is causing the deaths, which l

All I want from Firefox is the ability to autohide the address bar. The main reason I switched to Firefox is because you can write custom CSS to hide it. 99% of the time the address bar is a waste of space, and on a 13 inch screen with a ti

Sure, but that is the users choice when they chose to use a particular list. I think it is better to give someone the option to choose which people or classes of people to block than decide for them. If someone thinks the risk of blocking s

Why not have user curated and shareable blocklists? So if I never want to see anything from Alex Jones or Milo Yiannopoulos and the like, I just subscribe to a blocklist that eliminates far right commentators. You could even create networks

The Taycan has a standard CCS charger, it would be pretty surprising if that stopped working given how pretty much all non-Teslas have it. What self driving suite are you talking about? Pretty sure the Taycan just has active lane keeping li

I think the problem with schemes like this forex one is that you can legitimately make money in a fairly low risk way if you are selling the training/entry fee. You just pay $50, or $200 or whatever to be a part of the org, and then co

by GhostVII 6y ago
Thats exactly what every person selling the scheme says. If you actually try and get them to show proof, they usually don't actually make that kind of money. Or if they do, they make it by selling courses or commission, not by trading.

They aren't making money with forex trading, they are making money with their pyramid scheme. You sign up for their class, and pay $50 for a membership, and then each person with the membership turns around and sells it to more people.

I feel like at the very least we could have some super basic open air toilets. No toilet paper, no roof, just a toilet with running water and a tap. Almost no maintenance, and people won't camp out inside, but objectively better than a

So long as they are intentionally constraining themselves to well mapped places with good weather, what's the problem? Summer tires don't work in the snow either, but that's fine because they aren't expected to.

Sure, but the grandparent was talking about how it's not uncommon to have no TV, bad food, etc. in prison. Given that private prisons are uncommon, clearly privatization isn't the main cause of these problems.

by GhostVII 6y ago
Less than 9% of prisoners are in private prisons, so I don't think that would make a significant difference. I mean it might be a good thing to do, but won't help the vast majority of prisoners.

Pretty surprising how long it takes to recover from recessions. It took almost 10 years for the numbers to recover from after 2008, way longer than I would have assumed.
