I'm a Canadian that's been trying to get into this field. There is no "talent" issue. Any job that pops up is flooded with applicants. It's night and day compared to America. All the companies are in America, while

Why would that be the case? When people are at work, the power usage will drop but then spike when they come back. They get home, plug in the EV, turn on the stove/microwave, lights, turn on/up the AC. The power spikes are directl

It possibly could work, but we would be pushing our system beyond its already maxed out limit. We can hardly handle AC units in the summer. Imagine your entire neighborhood has their AC systems cycling. While stoves/microwaves come on

Every year you hear about the rolling black outs in California[0][1]. It gets bad with heat waves and AC systems running. An AC unit is no where near the power draw of a fast charger. [0] https://apnews.com/article/healt

For a commute of 40mi, yeah it makes sense. I've always liked the idea of EV for short commutes. But we're talking about high density batteries to fix the range issue. An EV city would probably flip to high draw at night, when eve

I love the idea of solar panels, and being fully independent without reliance on government systems. Not to mention, the sun hitting your roof is energy you don't even want. Why not convert that back into electricity? But that price ta

I'm extremely anecdotal but my trucks runs off veggie oil I get for free. It's maybe $200/year to drive for me. That being said, it's not great how gas is very expensive. It's a much better conversion, and wastes le

Serious question, how would we charge these new high density batteries? Just to charge our current EV's, we need to run dedicated circuits at max capacity and it still takes a couple hours. Are we going be running 1000v circuits in our

I built a 1994 Toyota pickup and swapped in a OM617a mechanical diesel. It's a really fun party trick to unplug the battery and have it continue running. In terms of security, it's my most secure vehicle. Mechanical diesel means i

In my experience the vast majority of the time exploits are found over Ajax APIs. Developers just forget that sanitization client side isn't secure. It's a good party trick for sure.

That's how I'm treating it. It seems once you get certain YOE you can be more picky. I'm already working minimum wage jobs, so this isn't a complete change of direction or life style anyways.

I do find that hopeful. I assume the hardest jobs at the moment would be the senior positions. These companies still need projects moving but also don't have much cash to pay, so the senior are first to get axed. At least, in my though

In my local city, that's what most of my postings are for too. So, I'd be very open to that.

I'm attempting to enter this field at possibly the worst time, with the worst qualifications. No YOE, no degree. I do have friends in the field that may be able to help but it's far from guaranteed. Only thing I have going for me

Legally, I'm not sure. I could say they aren't working, or they're fake etc. My neighbor has fake cameras and he gets asked too but they just leave it at that and never press it.

Nor should they. That's an insecure, single point of failure to have all your cash stolen. Same with storing $232M in BTC on a single HDD. Of course, at the time it wasn't worth anything near that and he wasn't concerned. The

How is this different than cash though? You need to be responsible with it or you'll lose it. No different than if he kept $232M in cash, buried it somewhere and forgot where. When we don't want to be responsible with cash, we giv

Whats your solution though? Strike? People will still apply and work there because it's bad, but not slave labour. Unionize? They'll entirely stop hiring people without experience and change their business model. Their business mo
