Most people with EVs charge at 6W/hr or less (mostly at home). Fast charge is only needed for road trips (which is not an issue if you have a 2nd car).

Most people buying an EV don't buy because of efficiency. One is ideological (I don't want pay the gas tax), another is performance (EVs have full torque at 0 rpm). Then there's Tesla's (successful) war against dealersh

So is this position some sort of sinecure? Like what’s happening in Florida? https://www.politico.com/news/2022/10/16/how-desantis-and-fl...

Clearly you're going for some snark, but some form of purge would be a good signal that the company isn't putting up with bullshit ideology.

Maybe they’re ok getting scammed for $25M now and then I guess.

This is the UK - do you have a US example? Because I know that doing this with current POTUS will get you a visit from Secret Service.

That's the ultimate cop-out. There is a way you can expose coordination with internal teams and colleagues without "I've reached out to a colleague who has provided me with some additional context" or "this work re

Do better? No, Tan and YC need to understand this will impact their image. Free speech has consequences. And speech that has unhinged threats (even if it has a disclaimer that it's not) has potential consequences with law enforcement.

I see Sinofsky's defense split into these a) Defending the industry's interests b) Defending US interests c) Defending capitalism I'd say (c) is the highest calling for someone like Sinofsky. His worldview is that companies l

Microsoft clearly wants Apple to spearhead this viewpoint that platform owners can't be regulated by legislation. It's entirely logical for them.

Why do people put up with this abusive relationship with their hardware OS? Microsoft doing now - what they've wanted to do for 20+ years.

Can you show me a Windows laptop that has Microsoft telemetry disabled permanently?

> 1.) Why did it take Evergrande 3 years to liquidate? Because this isn't "the West". China/CCP is specifically unwinding this slowly to avoid cross-market contagion.

When you cherrypick your comparison options, you can come up with some crazy statistics. What vehicle do you drive, and would you honestly compare it with a Model X (a large SUV)?

Where did you get 40%? The EV version of my car (Ford Focus) is 10-20% more than a typical Ford Focus (depending on trim).

by r00fus 3y ago
I drove my Focus EV like a madman for 6 years and only recently changed my tires. Sure it’s lighter than a model Y or even a Leaf but it has decent acceleration if you know how to drive it.

China believes in soft power. So I doubt they'd come in guns blazing to rescue Gaza. However, they have nothing to lose and everything to gain by brokering some kind of peace using their supply chain supremacy. Meanwhile US looks more

Biden apparently wants to lose. Watch every single campaign event be protested (many protesters are Jews). Yeah, that's definitely going to lower turnout on the DEM side. Biden is not only going to lose, Trump might even get a trife

I found this happens all the time on Yelp, Apple Maps and Google Maps. It's particularly bad in non-US countries (e.g. France) where you get sent to a residential house for a Decathlon. For years, my house was listed as being about a

At least the passcode section of settings can indeed be restricted by ScreenTime. I've done this as my aging parents often want change the passcode then forget their new passwords (and sometimes get paranoid).

Your examples seem very individual sized. For a family it makes a lot more sense to occasionally DoorDash if you simply don’t have the time or energy to cook or even take the family out. It’s expensive.

Aren't there other ways to address these safety issues without ballooning the cost of the building? When safety regulations come with minimal extra cost/efficiency (think: ABS or seatbelts in cars) then it's a great idea.

It's quite misleading - there are 2 variations of this processor: The Elite A which is quite a beast (80W TDP) and the Elite B (which is very in-line with the M2 - 23W TDP but actively cooled). I'm surprised the year-old M2 does a

So let's take my kids as an example - they plug their laptops in like 1/week. They have the M1 Airs, and I've seen them on their beds, in the kitchen taking a video while they food prep or as they clean their room (time-laps
