You're last statement should be: "who cares, america won't manufacture low end stuff like computer chips but we'll manufacture high end stuff like Intellectual Property." As this is the reality.

And you sound like a one party voter. I don't care the motivation. The SC shouldn't be doing congress' job. Congress got burned because they've been complacent. RvW has always stood on tenuous footing. We've known t

Yep. Wedge issues. I'm glad the SC is trying to force congress to do its job. If only someone would do something about executive orders, we may make some real progress.

B/c the US is a union. I live in a rural area. There are plenty of laws that make sense for my area that would be ridiculous in high density cities and vise verse. Here there is no minimum speed limit and I can drive my tractor down th

There is no way to fully price in externalities. This problem is similar to measuring the length of a shoreline. The closer you look, the more externalities you’ll find.

That doesn’t tell me anything when Amazon provided no guarantee that the item I’m ordering is from that vendor. I’ve been burned many times with cheap fakes. It’s clear Amazon does nothing to ensure I’m getting the original product. As long

It’s not typical for safety critical systems. A car isn’t a Web 3.0 app and shouldn’t be updated in the same way.

Jfc people make a ton of excuses for Tesla. This doesn’t invalidate what they were saying in any way. If lane changes are this buggy, why should they trust the auto braking?

BS. There's nothing stopping you from maxing your 401k and then pulling it back out taking the penalty. This applies to a ton of benefits people naively don't take advantage of from HSAs to employee stock purchase plans to 401k. I

Not true. Every supplier worth it's salt will provide you with quality details as part of the product spec (and cost and schedules/volume). 100% is rarely the expectation.

I'm confused. Is the issue that the parts are out of spec or that the auto makers want to up the spec?

Some kids got trapped in a cave in Thailand. Elon said Tesla would build a small submarine to get them out. A local cave expert who was advising the Thai government on how to handle the rescue operation said the Tesla idea was a pipedream a

That's a pretty simplistic view of an extremely complex issue. For one, factories shutdown. This wasn't caused by people wanting to work remotely, but due to covid outbreaks in the factories and government mandates. Second, the su

This seems intentional to me. Musk has been claiming there's a bot/troll problem on social media for quite some time. I think he knew this going in.

Just switch to the prusa site. It's much better. Competition is good an all, but there's no reason to keep using thingiverse at this point.

Let's ignore the part about biometrics being faked since this seems to be a point of contention. Isn't it a fair argument that secret keys should be mutable by the user? In the future, some unforeseen event COULD occur which compr

I'm not sure I agree with some of the responses. The issue is that the price to build or retrofit fabs goes up significantly with each generation. Only a few companies have been able to survive given the amount of financial risk involv

You’re arguing from a point of misunderstanding. Pedestrian triggered cross walks these days have signs that only flash while occupied and have signs that warn drivers again by flashing, ahead of the crosswalk.
