Uh, car batteries are much heavier than most ICE’s. The curb weight on teslas’s are crazy high. BYD can be lighter because they skip on safety gear and proper structural elements - in my experience.

According to everyone building out renewables, they absolutely are critical infrastructure? Frankly, what are they if not power delivery/generation - which is always defined as such.

Don’t forget the obvious ‘finger on the scale’ influence from the administration too.

For any given system, you’ll have those that try to play it straight - and those that will only ever try to play it crooked. Make one big enough, and you’ll even have people trying to play it crooked by pretending to play it straight.

Helped along by the somewhat Wild West attitude towards worker safety and industrial regulation - high energy density batteries are hard to get right, and extremely dangerous if done wrong. During manufacturing in particular. And only get c

And how many of those parents are spending 50+ hours a week (or more) working too? There are finite fucks anyone can give, and if someone is working all day keeping a roof over their head, what else is it going to happen?

Cite for it being solved? All the articles I can find have it as ‘active and growing problem with some potential mitigations which are not universally applied’. All the recycled water systems I’m aware of still have PCC issues and excess io

It won’t be. also this is more like them leaving the keys in the door, then someone comes along, uses the keys, and steals all your stuff. truthfully, no equipment is actually defective in this scenario eh?

The base is complaining, and they need a scapegoat. It wouldn’t surprise me if the talking points start being ‘Israel caused high gas prices!’ soon.

Every index has criteria, usually somewhat unique, or there would be no marketable difference between them?

Beautiful - I can’t wait for the lawsuits/criminal prosecutions and finger pointing.

They’re just using the typical historic valuation based on fundamentals yes?

Repairing a leak with an uncertain cause could be at high risk of catastrophic decompression if it was caused by certain types of corrosion or stress.

Hey, old military installations (albeit ancient) are still a type of tourist attraction lol. Most places in Russia are hunting and fishing locations too, hah.

I never said it wasn’t. Killeen, Texas is also a real place. How many people do you think don’t have at least a 2 degree connection to the US military? Do you think anyone there is going to think twice about going along with what the milita

1) with the exception of probably a few pensioners (who also depend on gov’t funding), everyone in the area is dependent on the military. It’s a giant military base in the middle of nowhere. 2) anyone not military (and hence in on it), is a

I take it you didn’t see the announcement where Anthropic is trying to get all new development banned, so they are ‘sole source’? [ https://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2026/06/04/worlds-most-... ]

I swear, it’s like you can’t even read your own comments. Bizarre.

And regulations are totally not written by people elected to do so - by their customers? And many of those, the customer is the gov’t and literally doing so? You do you dude.

This conversation gets more and more bizarre, but I’ll bite. 1) pharmaceutical companies are regularly compelled to produce specific pharmaceuticals to continue to be allowed to exist. 2) hospitals are regularly compelled to treat patients

Bwahaha. You’re really reaching there. A vendor can still do something, even if the guild wouldn’t allow them to do it, if the guild didn’t have the power to stop them. It used to be a guild vs a blacksmith (or the blacksmiths guild). Now i

That is not my example at all, if we’re talking coding agents eh?

Guilds often very much did assert what people could and could not build - historically. Against their will. Historically that is a major reason why guilds existed, actually. It’s an extremely modern invention that corps have these type of

Maybe? I haven’t seen it crop up however on any topic someone knows well - a kind of dunning Kruger, I guess? And yeah, the censorship model is wrong, but also the underlying other model is wrong too.

I think you’re missing the point? The data is often wrong enough it screws whoever tries it unless they have enough experience/knowledge to not need it, or really doesn’t help beyond what someone using existing tools to get - albeit wi

A gun type maybe. But then, two paragraphs and some machining knowledge + shop tooling could do the same, given enough refined material. Ain’t no way a layman is pulling off an implosion device, regardless of tooling or LLM guidance. The e
