In theory we already penalize 5mpg cars with gas guzzler taxes, CAFE penalties and gas taxes. I think CAFE should be reworked to not penalize smaller, more fuel-efficient vehicles i.e. no more light-duty truck bs.

_relative_ margins as in percent, $6 with 145% tariff is $14.7 which means to maintain the 75% margin you'd have to jack the price up to nearly $60. I agree that you don't necessarily need a 75% margin to do business, but it can&#

The perception of having fallen behind in AI adversely impacts your stock price, the amount of capital you can marshal to actually compete in AI. What I think is actually happening industry-wide is that any sort of "intelligence"

Toyota invested heavily into the R&D which is distinct from tooling up to produce 70kwh battery packs by the millions. They've sold maybe 20k hydrogen cars, globally over the course of a decade as a pilot. They also sold 4k RAV4 EV

Toyota does not want to sell a lot of EVs, because that could mean investing heavily to scale up the manufacturing of a dead-end technology that ends up losing out. Meanwhile they've been iterating on their hybrid tech and are selling

What does partisanship have to do with it, voters in CA are SFH owners and thus push for things that preserve the status quo. The state gov even passed a bunch of stuff in 2024 to defang a lot of NIMBYism but it takes time to see the effect

I don't doubt that you can physically carry big enough of a payload on an intercept trajectory, I just doubt that a clandestinely manufactured quadcopter will be able to either autonomously track its target (not big enough to carry a r

Over the course of a decade go from a max of 2%/year to something like 10%/year. Maybe some extra tax breaks for those who lost equity when selling a long-term residence (doubt, probably just slow their growth)

This is just stratified pricing. If you're egressing 1.2PB ($50k+ worth of bw on AWS) there's a likelihood that you're earning a fair bit and an enterprise contract will be worth it to you when it comes to support. On the oth

Intel would definitely try to directly profit from stratified pricing rather than letting the OEM keep that extra margin (competition from AMD permitting).

Regulatory hurdles from incumbents aside, it's generally the case that a less developed, up-and-coming economy will have new stuff quicker. The US is arguably the birthplace of credit but was one of the last to get chip and then tap. R

In the US it's CAFE gaming, 6000LB GVW tax incentives and arguably fuel, registration and tolls aren't (sufficiently) scaled with vehicle size. The chicken tax thing definitely contributes even to Canada's market since it

io_uring is a low level abstraction and is generally a wash against epoll. Really won't make a difference for these kinds of applications, especially not for client nodes.

I think Chinese industry as a whole is also fixated on high density batteries because they allow them to sidestep a lot of R&D. For example if they can get to electric aviation, they can drop their dependence on GE turbofans for passeng
