Anatomy and many other highly relevant undergraduate courses in biology and chemistry are mandatory for the postgraduate degrees.

They've since refused to ticket people who get on without paying. You can also see plenty of ASB.

There's some obvious caveats: 1. Not everyone who becomes a teacher is getting a teacher major. English Lit scores well in two areas. 2. Special education is just very expensive babysitting, so they don't actually need to know any

We taxpayers already spend >$30 per person-trip for the Sounder. It currently doesn't connect well to transit on either end (most users drive to it), and half the city is fighting to make sure it doesn't connect directly with t

Electronics-wise there's little difference with NACS. I promise they'll find a way to fuck it up. Sincerely, non-Tesla EV owner

I was mostly taking the piss with the comment about "slow EU chargers", but one public L3 charge station can replace 10+ L2 stations, and all 20k+ Tesla superchargers are L3. I can't find a reference for the share of L2 vs L3

The misogyny in Lucifer's Hammer did not age well at all. Mote is not as in-your-face with it. I do like all the different kinds of moties.

You can go to 99% of the country just using superchargers. It's "sparse" in some places because their cars are long range and hardly anybody lives there, but it's still covered. There's a big difference between an E

That's only public charge stations and most EV owners predominantly charge at home. There's also fewer than 30 gas stations per 100k people too. Tesla charges almost as fast, so they don't need as many slow EU chargers.

The United States is far larger yet completely covered by the Tesla network. Our government handed out so much money to Electrify America and friends, yet their equipment performs poorly and is usually broken. Our government is no longer ca

It starts out simple :-). Then you realize doing some action ends up being O(n^2) so you add some workaround in your switch and cache some things. And you know what they say about cache invalidation. And vendor A implemented it wrong in 199

Weird, I guess I didn't drive my 2013 Leaf with original batteries 100 miles today.

Because would you really spend $10k+ to do that? No, you'd buy a Prius instead, because it'd work better and be cheaper.

The millions of existing ICE vehicles can be retained by the people who own cars but use them rarely, and new EVs can be used by people who need to drive significant distances.

Sure, then call it hybrid assist. Gasoline engines are most inefficient at small loads though, so you aren't saving as much as you think. The price of a used Leaf in the USA can be $3000: https://seattle.craigslist.org/

Right, and it's proposed the engine wouldn't be running.

They're just clip-art on a slide. It's not possible for a reasonable price. NRE costs per model would be high, making a farce of "Make your car electric for 5k". For the mechanic installing the device, you have to have a

Wildly ignorant choice. No one's going to sell a big enough battery without at least modeling its effect on crashworthiness, which is expensive. No, you can't run the car without the engine running; you won't have oil flow in

> I have bought 8 years ago about two dozen LED lamps > All of those still work flawlessly That's the point: you (mostly) can't buy LEDs made 8 years ago new. The LEDs I have from a decade ago weigh three times as much.

It's the keel that makes it possible to sail upwind in any useful sense. There are functional equivalents possible e.g. a catamaran can have very narrow-but-deep hulls, but it's the the fact that a keel provides very little drag s

Downwind: probably. Otherwise, no, because it's the interaction between the keel and water which allow you to sail other points i.e. broad reach.

Every place I have paid bills advertises discounts for the poor, mixture of government and private. The corruption of DEI does not benefit the little people, but the political consultants and PR departments.
