Even though it's 8 conductors, you still put only one cable, that's much easier than even two wires. Low voltage means you don't need an electrician license to DIY, because it's not going to burn the house. Mass producin

So we're saving on the wire only. I would probably pay for extra wire just to make the system simpler, unless I was a builder aiming to save on costs.

Job market got issues way before tariffs, somewhere in the pandemic times. I believe it's WFH. It taught companies remote work, and it's a small next step to offshore work.

I'm more amused about the actions of the Congress, a higher authority than president. I mean the total silence from them. Why don't people retract their Representatives for not representing them?

I drove hydrogen Mirai, and it feels pretty much electric in every way but fueling. It drives off battery, no hybrid transmission, hydrogen is only there to charge the battery.

State (any country, since the birth of monarchies) is the gang. It literally robs you ("taxes"), monopolized violence (only state is allowed to utilize it). But if it does a poor job at that, other states swoop in with their rules
