Are you in the car industry? i feel no one talks about refresh cycles so confidently unless you’re very tight. I think 99.9% of people in the industry have no interest in shaking the equation that feeds. but,conversely, there really is noth

Lots of cynics here can’t separate the baby from the bathwater. You may need to get off your device and try driving one. Moreover, it’s an EV and i know reducing carbon emissions is a value that’s widely held here. It might be that you can’

I think it’s okay if people take responsibility for their actions, to take risks known or unknown. It’s okay to live in a world where we’re not entirely insulated from negative consequences. Ive always been bummed by how inaccessible chemis

that’s a little like saying macbooks get their long battery life from their batteries alone. there’s a lot to consider downstream.

Most diyers are using LFP at this point and that’s considered quite stable. a smaller group try to reuse old ev batteries and those are generally considered more risky because of the runaway effect that’s possible- which still seems relati

I don’t think it can be assumed. if the rain increased vegetation, i wouldn’t rule out an increased water cycle and greater amount of water in the area in general. Honestly, i wouldn’t be surprised if it benefited neighbors. I’m no expert

This is so peculiar. If the body plans to die then maybe you can interfere with it. eeveryone just assumes the body would live forever if it could but that would t agree with the value of sexual production.

Ben_bai said it pretty well. water is good but it can cause rust, pressure, freeze, leak, etc. sand avoids most of this. the big thing is that sand can be heated much much hotter and this helps make up for its shortcomings relative to water

This is great technology, simple and effective. I’ve spent many hours reverse engineering to see how effective and expensive it might be. I’ve found it’s very cost effective but heat can be hard to calculate. i like that they did a prototyp

This is a rather one sided discussion here. Aside from the fsd hysteria, the camera set and current functionality for automatic breaking may significantly reduce front impact to pedestrians. I also feel it is disingenuous for no one to ment

it is fun to watch the technology grow and morph- especially on the same daily route. it’s also nice to have as an alternative to a knee when you need to do something awkward, like reach back or sneeze. there is always the heart attack sce

these things are not intractable but nobody has made a comment that fully captures the complexity. some in building science talk about smaller diameter pipes but code opposes it. There is so much to discuss. i’m tempted to launch into all o

No one mentioned rolling resistance when increasing weight- i can’t say offhand where that loss becomes significant or not but i believe it’s worth consideration. also, the energy doesn’t need to supplant the diesel engine but it could ass

I live in the twin cities and have routinely made it to Duluth with 50% left (153mi)in the MY LR. The thing that’s not mentioned that has a dramatic effect is air resistance-the difference between 65mph and 75mph is startlingly and not show

One trick gardeners use is to just bury the tag, often the one that came from the store. maybe a eighth of an inch or just under some wood mulch- keeps it from uv and let’s you check if you’re desperate. You could have a method for locatin

the plaid, i believe, is sub 2s. it is a vanguard product. i believe they use the same motor in the semi- so, in hindsight, they started with impractical fun but had an eye on practical power down the way. This is rather smart, no?

I think the appearance is largely defined by its aerodynamics. people may be calling for them to make arbitrary changes in appearance but i’d rather they keep the functional shape.

It’s probably like mutual funds vs stock picking. some parents will do better and some will do worse. the child gains the interest money- if the parent is a bad stock then it’s bad in isolation… schools are predictably mediocre but public&#

somehow this answer reminded me of the good advice for starting to tighten a nut. first turn left till you feel the nut drop- then turn right. I feel there is a universal lesson here. Maybe going, as the crow flies, directly toward your goa

How would this happen? can you give an example? are you saying the climate is getting closer or passing through our body temperature range and so they want to jump in to our regulated bodies?

The owner of nootropics depot has convinced me that, apart from theirs, maybe only 1% of the products in the supplements industry are what they say they are and/or remotely close the stated dose. Aside from that, the website looks g

This comment is a bit pithy for the reasons already mentioned and more. Humanity has never acted as one thing. There is no order to the activities required to turn things around for the world. Reintroducing a keystone species can draw more
