Motorcycles are also more dangerous to ride and bicycles don't go as far. One could also bring up the comfort levels and carrying capacity.

The grocery store doesn't have to have every customer walk to it for the homes around it to have people walk to it. There are plenty of homes near good shopping, schools and other services. If that's important to you then you ca

It’s more dangerous when cyclists go down one way streets the wrong way instead of going down the correct street.

> They ride against traffic because most streets in NYC are one-way to accommodate cars. > Who do you think is making the road unsafe? The person riding against traffic is making it unsafe.

I'd say that someone riding against traffic is making it unsafe for themselves and others.

Our mall lost 2 major department stores when we got a Walmart and target. They lost 2 more after Amazon got big. The target and Costco a few blocks away are thriving with the affluent families. The mall isn’t economically competitive any

Except that doesn’t make sense. Malls were teen hangouts for 2 decades and thrived. What killed our mall was that all the anchor stores were getting killed by Walmart and target.

Cool, thanks for responding about one. I’d rather not have to worry about how to fit our double stroller, pack n play and bags in our sedan.

People buy SUVs because they’re comfortable. You are more upright, have more space, car seats fit, you can haul around your junk without thinking or planning. Most people driving SUVs have not and will never kill a cyclist or pedestrian.

You've now re-invented the mall killer.

I think you’ve reinvented the mall.

Tesla shows you percentage by default. The percentages for arrival in navigation are spot on for most people.

I obviously don’t have a reason why it was so off. We regularly drive from near sac to Santa Cruz and it’s within a few percent with plenty of speeding. I commute 100 miles a day on the freeway, so maybe it knows my freeway driving habits

I have it show percent, not range. Tesla defaults to percent on the main display. I'm not sure about other cars. When you use navigation then Tesla will show you the expected charge at your destination and it's been pretty accu

While they are the largest in CA, there are 100 home insurance companies operating in California. Also the excuse of wildfire doesn’t make much sense. They also cite high building costs, but policies are priced on how much insurance people

The average person in California doesn't live near wildfire areas. Seven percent of the population is in a high risk area. Last year 876 structures were lost, or damaged, due to a wildfire. Not exactly moving any needles for the ave

My comment is responding to the parents comment about hydrogen fuel. https://www.hydrogenfuelnews.com/hydrogen-fuel-odorized/8550...

Natural gas and propane are odorless too. They solved that problem by adding an odorant to it.

Sounds like you might as well store your car at the dock then too. An EV is pretty worthless without a battery.

The thread is about tools to evaluate LLMs. Please re-read my comment in that light and generously assume I'm talking about that.

It sounds a lot easier to retype what you see rather than to create it.

It's a strawman because they aren't comparable to AI detection tests. A screening coming back as possible cancer will lead to follow up tests to confirm, or rule out. An AI detection test coming back as positive can't be re

Not OP, but California Air Resource Board gives a significant rebate and I know if you live in the Central Valley you can get another rebate. That's 10k+ from the state alone up to 120k income for a family of 4. Our local utility als

Not the federal rebate, but California sends rebate checks. You also can make quite a bit of money and get significant rebates back in the state.
