> men have no interest in spending time with children because that's what they learned from their own parents. It sounds like this was the case for you, but it doesn't mean it is the case for other men. It isn't the case f

Wow, this sounds very complicated, subjective, and invasive. I guess in such situations it's not possible (or not favorable) to not have your employer know much about your personal situation.

This sounds like the old-fashioned way of running companies that would result in a married woman being laid off instead of a married man, on the theory that he's the breadwinner and his family relies on him. Or am I misunderstanding?

What does "legally protected maternity leave" mean? From your stipend comment it sounds like it's not fully-paid. Does it just mean your company has to offer you your job back when you want to return? What happens if the comp

A couple reasons: Moms often nurse past infancy, and once she's taken 18-24 months off work, it makes more sense for her to continue the pause. On average, moms seem to derive more enjoyment from spending time with babies. I have some

Probably only kicks in for paid providers. There would be all sorts of laws around safety (making sure the areas are child-proofed, no dangerous items (knives, guns, medicine), background checks, temperature maintenance, emergency plans, et

The chart claims that you need to make over half a million dollars a year ($516k) to comfortably afford child care in Minnesota. I'm sorry, that is absolutely ridiculous.

Cool, hopefully won't be limited to physically small cars. Many people with medium-sized cars only go 30 miles/day regularly, and rarely need more than 100 miles of range. Most days I'm under 20, and 90% of the time I'm

Yeah I can't figure out why this is, exactly. If batteries are such a huge cost center, why can't I save a significant chunk of change by opting for a vehicle that has 100 or 200 miles less range?
552.
by apparent 8mo ago
Yeah I think this is a combination of greater range and the ceasing of EV subsidization. It would be nice if there were some options that had much less range than is now possible, at a substantial discount.

by apparent 8mo ago
Hope so! I have seen a few vehicles with higher capacity trims, so the real question is whether they'd shave $5k off the price of a vehicle and give it a quite-limited range (150 mile). Some people would be totally fine with that, espe

Speaking only for areas near where I live, it was in response to a persistent uptick in home invasions. Police can't be everywhere at once, and LPR cameras flag stolen cars and mismatched plates that thieves like to use.

Is this true when adjusting for vehicle age? The average age of an EV is quite a bit lower than the average age of an ICE vehicle, and I assume there is at least some correlation between a vehicle's age and how likely it is to explode

I get that this can make it possible for greater range for the same price, but what about the same range for lower price? If it weren't for the batteries, EVs would be much cheaper than ICE vehicles. It stands to reason that if we can

I considered that possibility, and if they were just adding in the PTR launch I could understand. But expanding into a totally different product line seems like it would take up a lot of time, and is surely slowing things down. Given that t

Not quite the same: the Duo won't ever be made again, since the leftover parts are now all gone. The PT2 could be made again, but there is no guarantee. My guess is there will at least be periodic runs, and people will just buy a watch

Yep. I don't understand the appeal of the ring, assuming you're wearing the watch all the time. One-handed operation isn't worth much to me, and I have zero interest in a ring (which won't fit either when it's hot o

Eric has said publicly this is not happening. Looks like he's making a watch that fits his use case, and since he always carries his phone that's not a priority.

Sorry to see the timing slip once again, now from March to April. I get that hardware manufacturing involves uncertainty and risk, but they've been off launching new products instead of getting these out the door. The delay from Decemb

He seems to say not in a hot tub, but IIRC I've seen him say that showers are OK. Maybe it's because showers don't submerge the watch, even if the temp is similar? That is, the watch itself wouldn't heat up nearly as muc

Yep, in 2000 even the PowerBooks weren't G4 yet. And of course the consumer-grade iBooks line wouldn't get G4s until years after that.

Your theory is that people who didn't care enough to vote are concerned that Donald Trump is going to come after them if they don't say they would have voted for him, when surveyed anonymously? And then NPR was duped into credulou
