We've launched dozens of shuttles below the minimum temp threshold before there's no reason to delay this launch... Also that's a singular industry, if the current crop of AI companies deliver what their hype and valuation de

There are also public roads cutting through fairly regularly in these areas.

I think that's more than likely just a fig leaf proposed for and by the people that planned to try to only have to by ~50% of the land they actually wanted to enclose. So much of this land is too far away from anything for much meaning
424.
by rtkwe 10mo ago
I'm glad the court case came down on the reasonable side that you can't effectively by half the land (as you buy more and more land of course) to gain control of the entire enclosed area which is clearly what all those land owners

Transmissions on EVs are generally single stage speed reduction so yes in the extremely rare chance you need to repair it you can. The motors are way harder to repair but they're similarly way less likely to need repair. Other part ava

Might be location dependent I had a lot of options last time I was poking around when my current gas car started making potentially expensive sounding noises earlier this year. (they stopped so I'm fine again /s)

Coal power is only about 20% of the US power generation at this point so it's not all or even most of a hypothetical EV's power source. So even where it is used 30 MPG is still actually pretty good gas mileage as well especially f

100% let someone else eat the initial depreciation hit from going from new to used and you can usually get one with pretty low mileage too.

Yeah I understand it's an issue other places but I don't think it's actually a significant issue in government documents and forms written in English which is the usecase here. The choice doesn't have to satisfy all requ

Sure but I think we could agree it looking nice ranks lower than being structurally more difficult to read for people? If there were a freely preinstalled option that was both sure but given the choice between functional and aesthetic reada

It may look better but it's harder to read basically across the board for anyone with difficulty distinguishing letters. Sans serif fonts are easier for people with dyslexia without going all the way to a dyslexia specific font. They&#

It's not, although blind or highly vision impared people who use screen readers sometimes also have to rely on OCR when the document isn't properly formatted with text. Using a sans serif font generally helps anyone with difficult

True though the confusion about that is largely when you're not dealing with words like passwords or hashes. In the context of words it's going to be generally disambiguated by context, I can't think of an example off hand in

Well to be fair their quoted rating has it's own built in margin. So you're already stacking safety margins.

They're a bit less usable that way now. The legs are basically completely hollow these days so you're not actually able to bear much weight on the screws so the only option is stacking the items so the weight is born by whatever s

Do they offer many services for *OS apps or are they mostly independent and only service their own first party apps?

I think we can presume they know that and are just continuing the fun slightly snarky framing. There are also minor differences in implementation between negative taxes (credits beyond obligations which can happen in the US though they&#x27

That's the difficulty with the Light/Medium/Heavy Duty categories. It doesn't tell you a huge amount about what the vehicle is being used for but most of them heavy duty mean commercial or utility. There are a handful of

What business or shopping trip into Manhattan is small enough that 9 dollars is a significant hurdle or increase in cost? It's there to disincentivize taking a car for no reason when you can use transit while being small enough to abso

Can they not afford to pay $9 per truck per day? Seems like a bad business plan that can't manage to pay such a minor fee. That's the design of the congestion charge it disincentivizes optional trips but is small enough for any mo

The question becomes how critical is X and is there a close alternative. In this case I'd say for 95% of people yes driving is easily substituted by NYC's public transit options.

The only line flat enough for industry to not come back asking for more cuts will be the flat strike through line on any taxes that they pay.

They do adjust for higher prices (inflation) in GDP calculations though. We will have to drastically change the tax base if automation really takes off. Every individual company or industry is rushing to flush out their workers but someone

They still want people to stick around and 'bond' for lack of a better term with their particular style of chat bot. Like so many venture funded money pits of old the cash burn now is about customer acquisition while they develop

Sycophantic: behaving or done in an obsequious way in order to gain advantage. Obsequious: obedient or attentive to an excessive or servile degree. It's a bit more complicated because the chat bot isn't making choices the same way
