I thought it’s not one plane but at least 3 with enough parts commonality to amortize the cost?

And that’s happening, but still your plumber has to come from somewhere. As the need to commute drops the population density that can be accommodated will rise just because there won’t be huge flows of commuter traffic.

Not exactly, hence the rise of fentanyl. Prior to the rise of fentanyl, new addicts often went from prescription pills like oxycodone to heroin as their lives unraveled because prescription drugs are expensive and hard to get. Some enterpri

They’re capable of building electric drivetrains, batteries are sourced from suppliers, IMO if they decided to mass produce and sell an EV lineup it’d probably take less than 5 years to hit full stride.

In the car today I asked Siri to play me a particular song (I have had Spotify defaulted for a while), it helpfully signed me up for a 7 day preview of Apple Music Voice and started playing it there! Where's the FTC? Is Apple too big t

If you broke your limbs riding a 200cc scooter, a 40mph tricycle would kill you. There's a reason this thing is limited to 15mph, it's extremely likely to flip and land on top of you.

Non-plug in hybrids are becoming the norm, almost everyone is going to at least a 48v mild hybrid, which is a 10-15% improvement over a normal ICE. Something like a Prius, Insight or Ioniq get 50+mpg combined. If everybody switched from god

Depends, "real" hybrids like Priuses definitely save fuel, I'd say the powertrain consumes 20% less fuel before you layer on other energy saving techniques like crap tires.

Is this meant to ridicule AI pessimism?

But probably some other fuel that burns cleaner without NOₓ/CO/CO₂ emissions, maybe hydrogen (no emissions at all) or ammonia (NOₓ only).

some of that (the highway rating especially) is gearing, the final drive is shorter and the 6th gear in the ZF manual is not nearly as tall as the 8th in the 8HP. This is a common issue in auto vs manual MPG comparisons these days

Well the people who smoke fent off of a piece of foil aren't going to disappear so you have to put them somewhere. If you were to put them somewhere in Pac Heights where the residents actively work against public transit that'd di

TLDR, adding an "edge" in front of your application incurs a connection setup cost which can be 2-3x RTT and is especially noticeable when you don't have a large QPS and are in a region like APAC where geographically close ne

He’s an academic, I don’t think he “supports” like it’s a ball team. Whenever you try to find nuance in such a situation, you’re a POS to those with predetermined views.

Golang and C++ don't serve the same purpose. Google internally sometimes uses both to the same effect but that's because Google internally has a bunch of stuff (including new kernel syscalls) that makes highly concurrent server de

Counter-historical as in not corresponding to history? 1. What? 2. Genocide denial talking point straight from the hurriyet. Massacres had been going on for 20 years in 1915. 3. Armenia didn't occupy anything until 1992. In 1990 people

What do you mean by inability to do anything with a literal? You can capture it, turn into a variable, turn it into a "lambda" (make next, break, return local), use it like callbacks are used in any other language. Blocks are a bi
