What does the Louvre do with it? I actually like the fact that someone had it in their house. Now it'll likely be in a warehouse.

Isn't it easy to have an adapter? Its weird that US is using NACS and Europe CCS, I guess it isn't much different to power socks.

> If I had to redo my education I’d get into electrical engineering just for this. This is the crazy thing. Such fundamental important technology but salaries generally suck. Much more money in cat memes and influencer channels.

China is a special case because it has to import all its oil which makes it a huge strategic weakness. Wind and Solar is still a tiny part of its electricity production. You can't rely on either for cold dark winters. Its emissions are

When I was a new manager I used to try to help people, it rarely works. If they really are a PITA they should be told to fix their behavior and if it doesn't get better you can fire them without remorse.

Robinhood isn't much difference. I'm shocked that an investment app gamifies trading so much it obviously becomes gambling. Financial industry is otherwise so heavily regulated I'm surprised they get away with it.

Right I like doing everything in Bazel instead of make now but still the same idea to keep it independent of CICD.

What I dont understand about Crypto is that its supposed to be good for payments, and for keeping a store of value. Both of those business are pretty low margin uninteresting businesses. How can people make billions out of it.

I'm working on a team with very naive, young, non-technically trained programmers. I love it so much. Start a program, open a file, process the file one step at a time. No DI, not much unit testing, no fancy frameworks or language feat

Toyota makes mass produced cars. It makes more cars in a month than Tesla does all year. Sure Tesla has done quite well, but EVs aren't really mainstream. When its mainstream and the technology settles down Toyota will be there. In the
