They don't. They assume automakers will start selling EVs and not PVs, petroleum vehicles. This article was about oil and energy industry. Try reading OA next time.

Country being wealthy doesn't mean all the people in it are. Just a few percentage points at the top. US citizens, esp those under so called middle class, rank worse than most other western countries. Ya know all those Eurpean socialis

Right, we know that security is a gradient, do you? There is a quantitative difference between covering your laptop under a coat and locking the car doors and leaving it on bench when you take a walk around park. Just as there is difference

I still think Murray's Razor's Edge is one of the greatest coming of age, life lesson, philosophy movies. It made me think and more importantly it made me curious about world outside my bubble, about people's motivations, abo

This, "plebes" are too easily manipulated, is why founders went for representative rather than direct democracy. Sadly, they underestimated the ability for power to entrench itself despite term limits, separation of powers, federa

The crisis is not one of content. But one of distribution. The internet has destroyed the lock on distribution relied on by; Publishers, MPAA, RIAA, newspapers, governments and even people who expect hard to access (look up in county courts

TIL Netflix has a lot of great movies I'd like to see. But my viewing time is already overfilled with all the Arrow, Flash, iZombie, and other shows I'm binge watching. And 80% of the time I'm more interested in seeing some &

Decentralization won't stop information flowing to the US. We'll just have to buy additional peerage points. Our budget and desire to spy on the world is greater than the world's resolve to not be spied on.

That document seems to describe the ideal of the law. The reality is much different. DA's will side with and protect police, courts will believe police testimony over mine or other citizens. It also, mostly deals with citizens. not of

Sure but the problem is, some random, ununiformed dude maybe or maybe not claiming to be a cop starts to man-handle you and trying to physically subdue you. It should be reasonable to resist that. How can anyone tell that is a lawful arres

I wonder how many of those "stopped" complaints would have been frivolous or made in hopes of cash settlement. Even if only a few percent, body cameras seem like a no brainer, good for everyone. Except to corrupt people (on both

"dumbed down" only improves the user experience of new users. It hurts power users and is rarely useful to anyone other than newbs. It can be net gain for infrequently used and rarely mastered tools. Source Control should the 2n

More like they're (pre)paid to be the scapegoat. If something really bad happens, C levels take the blame, their golden parachute and go get job somewhere else. The company and major investors get to keep on truckin!

"Stepped up to challenge" is a reactionary response. Something challenges you, your reaction is to ignore/quit or step up and respond.

Good points. Also, git (not Perl though) was designed by a genius for himself (and a few other geniuses). All of whom don't know how much of a genius they are / don't comprehend how comparatively dumb the rest of us are. S

Really? It's in the freaking name. Code is written that depends on dictionary being ordered. Works in CPython 3.6, fails on earlier CPython and other implementations of Python.
