This should be a legal therapy when under supervision of a psychologist. I’d like it on my death bed.

Assuming 50kwh/day (2/3 of an entire Model 3 battery pack) I’d need roughly a 10kw system. According to Google Sunroof, I can fit a 25KW system on my roof. I could have 2, and still run the AC.

The SUV Loophole was not a consumer decision. It was a bill passed by Congress after lobbying by the big three automakers who had a niche they could compete against the Japanese and the Europeans. Without it, our domestic automobile industr

I made this transition about 8 years into my career, moving from a software engineer specializing in performance to an OEM sales engineer customizing a product to hit a market’s performance needs. Some of the most enjoyable time of my caree

I never read articles on NPR or PBS defending the second amendment of the constitution. And if state-backed media is actively trying to disarm me, that’s a huge concern. Now, outlets like Fox media should also have labels due to their Domin

TSMC screwed up if that was their plan. All the other Fabs in the valley are about 1.5hr away during rush hour traffic from the new TSMC site. Anyone who wants to move to TSMC has to sell their house and relocate to a much less desirable pa

I’m of the view that the authors/publishers should have to have willingly given up their rights to allow this. When I put something down on paper and sell it, my intention isn’t to allow it to be traded every 35 seconds on the internet

Whoever allowed him to be rehired should be fired and also lose their pension. This is ridiculous.

And lose their pension. That’s the only thing which motivates cops. There should be a citizen review board that has the power to hand down the verdict. I’m primarily thinking of the Daniel Shaver incident in Mesa AZ, where Daniel was effect

I have plenty of Chinese propaganda in my TikTok feeds right now.

Do you think TikTok isn’t the next Cambridge Analytica? Are they benign? No, they are fully controlled by the CCP and will be used to crush Taiwan.

I strongly disagree. The anti-Ukraine messaging recently adopted by the right didn’t come from the individuals thoughtful consideration of geopolitics, but a careful influence campaign by Russia. China will do the same in their attempt to r

I had a friend who experienced a psychotic break following marijuana use. He was a moderate user, weekends only, for a dozen years prior. If he didn’t have such excellent support structure around him, I’d expect him to be homeless now.

Would be interesting to see the homelessness rates in countries with very restricted marijuana access, like Japan, versus countries where it’s widely used. Or some other way to determine if marijuana usage increases homelessness.

A better strategy is for it to self destruct immediately and violently with a continuous rod warhead.

I’ve wondered how much of our homelessness crisis is due to psychotic breaks from marijuana. It’s a small fraction of users which have psychotic breaks, but our homelessness population is similarly small.

I voted for it before I left California, as I knew I wouldn’t have to pay for the overruns and might be able to use it sometime on vacation. Was so predictable, and I remember laughing while voting for it.

They’re always protesting the wrong thing. They need to push for much higher estate taxes. If the 1% are gaining at the expense of everyone else, then prevent that from being transferred between generations. Then the 1% will begin to care a

I toured the Ford plant in Detroit last year. I remember seeing a torque wrench, which knew which vehicle it was working on, and recorded the full torque curve of the bolts it was fastening. Seems like this type of system would have prevent

They’re expecting the insurance companies to pay for it. Many/?most? Insurance companies don’t pay for weight loss medication. They’re likely trying to get people to push for this coverage, which will of course drive up healthcare insu

I recommend reading the mounjaro studies where they assigned a dietician and exercise to both the study group and the control. The mounjaro arm lost 22% while the placebo arm couldn’t lose more than a few pounds. There’s more to it than a m

I’ve gained roughly 5lbs a year for the past 10 years. At 3500 calories per pound, or 50 calories per day, that’s one oreo each night.

Thank you for posting this. I’m always surprised when people claim the rule is based upon the immediate letter instead of the pronunciation of the first syllable. Makes me wonder if the model was trained incorrectly.

So many. But I’ve been fired every time. Each time, I came out with an amazing story. In hindsight I wouldn’t have done it any differently. Makes life more interesting. Probably not good advice for everyone.
