The “too big to fail” businesses ended up being the best investments in the US. Commercial debt in China is guaranteed by proxy of the whole Chinese economy, because the government has direct ownership. The Chinese economy is in turn stabil

Most of the money for homeless outreach is pork. We refuse to force people into mental care facilities and drug rehab when they are in desperate need. Instead its just a stack of bandaids one on top of the next. It’s just a million here, a

That is a pretty shameless plug. I wouldn't put a SATA breakout board in a fancy case in the same category as an actual cluster backplane. That is like saying you are a Cisco competitor because you got a crossover cable working between

Programming is not tied to geography unless you are dealing with physical equipment (you probably don't want three grocery store self checkout machines in your living room) or have any sort of security requirements for the project.

RoR is the Supreme t-shirts and Air Jordans of programming. They very much matter and are the center of the universe to the people who care, everyone else just kinda shrugs and goes about their day.

Department of Energy regulations require hydrogen fuel stations to be able to fuel vehicles at 8-12 gallons per minute equivalent. Gas and diesel pumps (even the hi-flow truck stop ones) are capped at 10 gpm for safety.

That is the gotcha. Do you let peoples houses burn down while your fire truck charges? What happens when 50 fire trucks need to be charged at once? Or the giant battery is the thing on fire? Liquid fuel (hydrogen, gasoline, etc) is essentia

We will always need a portable liquid fuel to meet needs like emergency vehicles, construction equipment, and emergency generators. Not everything is a consumer car and truck. Being a battery maximalist prolongs the time everything else run

Electric is a complete non-starter for emergency vehicles. They need to be able to refuel in a grid-down situation, and fill up in minutes instead of hours. Hydrogen isn't as portable as gasoline, but it can be trucked to disaster area

It is vastly different in the bay area where public transit is a horrible mess and the freeways are all at 300% capacity. A friend who is a Googler is looking at a 30 minute commute to a GBus stop for a 90 minute ride each way. Going to the
