Just because two medications contain the same active ingredient doesn't mean they'll have the same results. A lot of work gets put into speed and location of of release.

I don't think that's engineer so much as lazy bureaucrat in power. It's the mentality Douglas Adams made fun of with the "Your planet is being destroyed, you had plenty of time to read the posted notice".

> I've seen enough EVs to conclude that Tesla does not make better cars than other automakers, at all. Wow this is a bold take as almost every other car manufacturing CEO has publicly stated they need to catch up to Tesla's inn

That's a fair assessment, and if you wait long enough the features iterated on at Tesla do come to the other auto companies. I know Tesla helped Toyota with their findings on battery tech. Now it's looking like 48v architecture an

Happened on my dad's Ford with less than 100k miles on it. Sure does seem a lot more uncommon in other vehicles though.

That's not quite right. The comment was really showing the the definition of "best" can vary based on a lot of factors. It is up to the reader's imagination to account for real life constraints such as time and budget in

I get that brake lights can be mechanical, but man would those parts wear down and be unreliable. Also, having your trailer help with the braking is very nice (and communicated via wire).

But is it easy to avoid status if you are healthy and low stress?

by scottyah 3y ago
My interpretation isn't cause and effect but rather effect and cause (in the simple sense, though it is a flywheel where they build upon one another). High Status is a lot easier to achieve when you don't tire easily, don't g

Reddit is just another segregated community, it is one that just somehow attracts the type who perplexingly think they can understand and speak for everyone.

I'm beginning to like the revenue driven algorithms. I rarely get the BigCo ads anymore, it's usually small scrappy startups building niche products for the niche activities I enjoy. "Sponsored athletes" are now "in

Definitely freaky, but antibiotics are just biotics too- they're just the warrior/spartan kind that have a tendency to kill off all of the other guys.

This is a very short sighted take, but also housing costs are rising dramatically in places other than Santa Cruz.

It depends on where you live I suppose, in So Cal houses are such a good investment that just holding gets you gains near the SP500, and I've seen a few surpass their engineering salaries by renting out 2-3.

"Existing supply" has nothing to do with building the apartment rentals, though the apartment operations economy would get hit and they might have to actually do some work somewhere. I believe the parent comment is about how man

That's what the money is for. They signed up to do a job and they are paid to do it. If they don't want to do the job they are free to quit anytime. It is frowned upon to selectively do parts of your job when people are relying on

Wow, how horrifying. The more I read about the Nixon/Kissinger era, the less I wish I had. Also of note is the fact that the original compound was used as a pesticide for years. Pesticides in general give me paranoia as they try to del

Makes sense for objects, but I think they're classifying these goods as services. Would you call it "renting" a massage, because if something happens and they have to stop part-way though you don't get the full massage a

It is sad to see more tech stuff get political. I make this assumption because there are plenty of services that can post to multiple social media accounts, and even cross-posting really wouldn't take that much effort- maybe an additio

They purposely did not make the Chan Zuckerberg Foundation a non-profit so as to not be encumbered by all the laws that affect those organizations.

Seems like one anti-Tesla (or EV in general, we can't tell from the article) group is leveraging their network of existing Union pacts and loopholes in the law to withhold license plates from waiting customers. Are the "independen
