I don't think the US tries to control Canada like a vassal. It's an unfair portrayal of their common history. Canada is basically the parts of British interest in North America that that revolutionary war failed to reach or aquire

I find that it sloppily goes back and forth between old and new methods, and as your LLM spaghetti code grows it becomes incapable of precision adding functions without breaking existing logic. All those tech demos of it instantly creating

This is much less of a problem in large Asian cities. They're only really stressful in rush hour crowds. But in places like NY the public seems much less interested in the initial policing, maintenance, and cultural attitude shifts tha

The key word is options. One doesn't denigrate the other. The cities I've MOST enjoyed public transportation in were in Asia, where I truly didn't miss cars but they are still centers of mass car adoption and new EV infrastru

That's a bold stance when first world countries depend on immigrants who need to take intercontinental flights to see their families every year. Let them eat rail.

The differences between Spanish "dialects" are overstated IMO and closer to accents. No two Spanish accents are as different as the dialects of Arabic or dialects of Chinese are from each other. People will share anecdotes about n

For half a century, a litany of federal policies has favored large SUVs and trucks, pushing automakers and American buyers toward larger models. Instead of counteracting car bloat through regulation, policymakers have subtly encouraged it.

Archiving television programs was not Stokes’ only fascination. In fact, the tech-savvy hoarder also took an early interest in Apple computers — and amassed 192 Macintosh computers before she died. I'd really like to know more about

Are your specific shops PE backed? There are lower barriers to entry so your local restaurant, super market or car mechanic can still exist alongside PE-backed chains. One can't just on a whim decide to become a doctor.

Many years ago as a teen I worked seasonally at a big blue/yellow electronics store that sells TVs, computers, appliances....and candy at the register. Curious, I asked my manager about it. "Oh yeah, someone comes in here to buy a

Cynically that's probably often the case but if you're offering <$10 food items at a mom & pop shop the credit card fees are non-trivial so there probably is a very legitimate incentive to take cash. There's also benef

COMAC is already eyeing 10% of Boeing/Airbus' lunch and they've been working on it for years with state-level "help" that resulted in espionage arrests/convictions. Airplanes are extremely complicated.

Even the same volume(cup) of coffee brewed the exact same way will vary in caffeine content based on whether it's a light or a dark roast. I wish more studies like this would just list mg of caffeine for comparison instead.

It's a little more expensive but it's always worth it to get a low voltage specialist to run your ethernet. To an electrician a conductor is just a conductor no matter how you splice it.
