“Token for a ride” or anything about conspiracy of automakers to kill public streetcars is relevant. And they did it again by convincing us that everyone needs to ride their own lithium battery.

Personal electric cars is a horrible solution for transportation. We have had electric trains, trolleys, underground for decades. It does not look like Californians are actually going to build anything new like that. India and China most li

With few prompts I just wrote a small script with a bunch of openssl commands. Saved me an hour. And it works. And it even explained it. There is AGI and then there is “practically agi”. The latter has been achieved with LLMs.

The conversation about robotaxi and self driving cars reminds me the advent of Uber. One one hand there is a company with shady practices that breaks every relationship they can in every market, on another - a bunch of rent seekers and thei

I am skeptical, especially Mr Grusch seems like full of sh*t. But a pilot named David Fravor testified along him, described his first hand account under oath. The second pilot that that flew along side with him on that occasion corroborate

I am 100% certain, that fall out from a panic from a nuclear threat is as unpredictable as stock market. Surely there may be enough idiots in any government who might think that they have a grip on public opinion strong enough to direct it.

A dashcam video from the firetruck would be worth thousands statements by spokespeople.

Agreed, but if would also be self-sabotaging. Their emergency services are stretched thin. And the population does not believe that the government can deal with a nuclear threat. It can cause a panic among population, within and outside of

An emergency vehicle with sirens on obviously has the right of way. And they absolutely slow down for traffic in California. Right of way does not absolve emergency vehicle drivers from responsibility to avoid accidents. It’s easy to get co

I am incredibly concerned that people that make sandwiches for me can’t afford basic healthcare or stay home if they home a stomach flu.

We are all on the same planet, but we are not all under the same jurisdiction. My vote matters for healthcare in the US, but bears no direct influence on the healthcare in countries in Africa. If I believe that healthcare CEOs don’t create

To take advantage of NoGIL you don’t necessarily need to use parallelism directly. But let’s say your web server or async task executor can be more efficient at sharing context between threads.

SHA-256 is designed to be quick to compute, so with salt and maybe some guessing of area code the march can be found within seconds. For salt to make a difference they’d need to use some intentionally slow hash functions, like bcrypt.

It’s been around for years and it’s a lot of data to leak. Also UI interface of these features is super confusing. The worst is when I try to share something over AirPlay and there is a bunch devices named like iPhone (3) and iPad (2) and a

They started charging fees for UPS pick ups. It may not apply to all returns, but definitely some are noticing: https://www.reddit.com/r/amazonprime/comments/voem7s/prime_r...

How does one buy a bull return from Amazon or likes?

For international it made sense, because not every retail would ship internationally, but a private seller on the eBay might. Otherwise, I don’t see why a national buy would choose a used item from ebay over a new one from an online retaile

Was it before or after you could easily price check online by simply pointing the camera on an item?

Amazon used to be like that, but now they are making their returns harder.

Yeah, and Costco has a mechanism for dealing with it because it it a club system. They can simply kick you out or temporarily suspend your membership. I returned open packages, but it was because the product was spoiled or I was not able to

He might be sitting on a bunch of QQQ and SPY and just hedge against the price drop. I don’t know if reporting requirements are the same for long puts vs protective. Can anyone familiar with the topic elaborate?

If it must be included in the price, business will go out of the way to demonstrate the part of the price a tax is responsible for. Pretty much everywhere where it’s the case, somewhere on the page with price there is a note explaining that
