The term "zero-emission" has a specific meaning for the DOA, EPA, and CARB specifically referring to the tailpipe and combustion emissions produced when operating the vehicle. https://afdc.energy.gov/vehicles/

What's the issue with the zero emissions rhetoric?

You probably can't eliminate any sort of political bias, but a single 14 year term puts you pretty much outside of any electoral cycle considerations, which is important for maintaining long term stability in monetary. Making them have

Fed governors are subject to democratic accountability (nomination by the president and confirmation by the Senate), but their term is 14 years instead of 4. The Chairman is subject to the same accountability, but on a 4 year term. There ar

The ability to switch modes is going to be important. I'm on the latest iPadOS beta, and when I'm using it to do work across multiple apps the new macOS like window management is amazing. When I'm just trying to read a book,

Bundling a little script into your path like that is pretty cool, just overkill to use a flake + nix for _just_ that

Does that affect developer productivity at 37signals though?

I was somewhat expecting that the flake would include nvim bundled with the vimrc in the folder. You could then just open nvim in the `nix develop` environment (or even use something like direnv to activate it when you cd in) and have a min

I think it is troubling to say “the lie has value”, but it is worth thinking why certain stories and hoaxes resonate. It’s similar to how sci-fi and horror can reflect the anxieties of their contemporary society

This metric of underemployment is captured in U-5 and U-6 in the BLS statistics. It's less common to report, but in the aftermath of the financial crisis I remember hearing more about it. You can construct a chart in FRED that covers i

Direct File was rolled out gradually as a pilot program. It was also only available for taxpayers in 12 states. My guess: since the tax code is so complicated, they probably wanted to support the simplest and most common filing cases in the

Is there a collection of note taking practices (such as they exist) among the great thinkers/scientists in history? Is there an assessment or study of their notebooks somewhere that distills best practices? Are techniques like ZK or sp

Yeah that makes sense. If there was an update of MMR, and there was a 50/50 chance that your child does not actually get vaccinated against MMR, you’d refuse to participate in the trial.

I guess the danger here is that for vaccines that we already know reduce the risk of deadly diseases, you’d either: Randomly expose patients to the risk of contracting a known debilitating/deadly disease Or No one who comes in for the

Proposal number 2 will destroy the US economy, completely destabilize prices, and make recovering from recessions painful and slow. There is a reason that no country today, including the ones that produce things, use the gold standard.

This is cool! We do something similar in Devbox where we pre-evaluate store paths from the Nix repository, and then fetch the packages directly from the official Nix cache. This greatly reduces the evaluation time. Here's a blog post w

It's interesting that the last 2 years of this study happened during a period of increasing inflation and rising interest rates. I wonder how that affected some of the metrics and qualitative surveys from the participants

With direnv you can activate your shell automatically by changing your directory. This is pretty useful if you have multiple projects using devbox, or a monorepo type setup with a few devbox.json files in your subfolders
