My view is a more charitable one assuming there is some grand strategy going on but I think you are more on the money. It's just hard to accept that the administration really is so comically corrupt and incompetent

May I propose a tinfoil hat perspective on tariffing China: America is prepping the ground for a full war with China. That's the only position that make sense to me other than the obvious "these guys are all corrupt idiots".

America's unwavering support for a lunatic country openly and joyously committing acts of unspeakable horrors probably not helping. Your president boasted on twitter about mass murdering a village tribal gathering. Wonderful country yo

Why should I care if the tool I use to write boiler-plate code and suggest marinade recipes for chicken is censored? Theres plenty of censorship in chatgpt and Grok if you bring up topics involving US imperialism. It's quite an entitle

Way beyond my skills to say. I just use a reseller who’s been around for years and has decent trust pilot reviews. I wouldn’t use Amazon though!

CJS CD Keys. I used them before years ago for Visio 2019 and windows 10 pro. Both still purring away nicely

It took less than a day to determine it was Russia and not only that but this specific ship that cut the cable. Yet years after the largest industrial sabotage and environmental disaster in recent memory (Nord Stream 2) absolutely no invest

I’m sad that R’s tidy syntax is not copied more widely in the python world. Dplyr is incredibly intuitive most don’t ever bother reading the instructions you can look at a handful of examples and you’ve got the gist of it. Polars despite it

Lemme be the guy who farts in the elevator. Sweden has managed to avoid entangling itself in military conflicts around the world for centuries and by joining NATO it’s got itself security but at the expense of potentially involving itself

The scales of money in Ivy League schools are just staggering. It’s not a university but a hedge fund that dabbles in education

- P-value is the result of a hypothesis test with the question being "is this effect size 0". The p-value is the probability of seeing the observed data under the assumption of the effect being zero. - The R^2 is a measure of how

Having priced warranty insurance products in the past, the relative cost of repairs standardised by new vehicle value at the time of sale, JD power ranks were not bad proxies but bit and miss for their mid-field. Toyota being below average

Don’t single Tesla out on this. No car manages to get its official mpg/EPA rating in real-world driving conditions. Some get closer than others and some manufacturers (eg Fiat) designed their motors in a way that maximises their perfor

Insurance policies such as these are priced very simplistically for practical reasons allowing the product to be distributed widely on systems that may not be internet-connected at the time of sale. The pricing can be made more accurate red

I don’t disagree with you but I see that as an aside. Millions of people don’t need 2.5 ton SUVs to cart themselves to and from the shops. Yes ok BEV will do it better but we have had scales for longer than we’d had batteries

ICE motors have been evolving for over a century now so the improvements will become ever smaller. Despite that slowdown in progress, the energy density advantage of fuel over batteries still vast. Regulation should, in my opinion, be be ag

Between this, camless motors, motors that can switch between different combustion cycles and variable compression ratios there is technically still a lot of improvement to be had. Whether or not the political climate will allow those improv

Unless there is someone here who can shed more light all I can see is from way the EU members treated Greece it made it very clear the EU was never going to let the U.K. leave and profit from the deal.

When I got my first iPhone (an XR) I remember the first 3 weeks I kept playing around with portrait mode. Now a year in, looking at the photos in my iCloud stream I haven’t used the feature in more than 9 months. I had to read this article

Sorry I’m not adding anything to the conversation here, but have they removed that strange ‘swipe-up to login’ gesture at the start screen?

I don’t understand why you need to engineer vitamins into rice instead of just handing out vitamins separately? And if its that easy to save lives with vitamins the implication is these vitamins have been deliberately withheld to shift this

The Sterling has fallen by more than any trade tariff that I know of (at least for any sizeable market where I’ve seen approx 10%) so whenever I read a business blaming their own failings on Brexit I just can’t take it seriously. I believe

Great point and it makes me think of software that hasn’t changed because it does exactly what it’s supposed to and no more. Like right now I am learning awk and sed using a book that was published in the late 80s and every single command a

I’ve worked at a company that took this too far and product managers used the release cycle clock to game the system by launching features that were not even half-baked but just outright didn’t work but since they hit their official target
