I can put in the source -- but I read somewhere that EVs use twice the number of "chips" compared to conventional cars. edit: - here is a source -- but not the one I read in past. https://www.scientificamerican.com&#x2F

No, India will not let its financial graph be owned by China. US or EU its a different matter -- even then, as India becomes stronger economy would carve its own platform.

When I didn't know better I thought them as some kind anarcho libetarian group, but behind every effective cyber offensive there is always a powerful actor.. mostly a state or private interest.

Any throwaway account from Google current or former higher ups can chime on this? I can think of one reason is to be keep employees in few locations concentrated to get some political leverage. Mr.Senator from CA, if you are doing this X, t

You are right -- there are 5 refineries in LA county and 60% of the California capacity. The possibility of them having $1 gallon in CA did not feel real given the taxes and fees per gallon are near or exceed $1.

The LA in the previous comment is likely Louisiana -- where many refineries are based. Also, CA has its own refineries that have additional blend restrictions (if I am not wrong). You cannot legally sell, gasoline that is refined in LA or T

I am willing to pay for no noise -- straight dope twitter just like I do for YouTube premium. But, Twitter has to remind of some fucking celebrity, some fucking political meltdown, so cultural gossip bullshit and days outrage. There is no w

The gas station analogy is a bad analogy -- understand that demand and supply are being balanced real time on the grid. That is not same with a Gas station or a group of gas stations. A bit more sophisticated thinking is required here -- if

In Texas when you are filling information to your RETAIL provider, you can notify them that you have health equipment that relies on electricity. I do not exactly know what kind of actions they take -- when you provide that info but I am as

Insane probably, but there is always going to be some friction and gap between policy and implementation. It is good to inquire and understand where the gaps are. You are doing the right thing but shining the sun light and trying to recruit

This Crypto bullshit has to stop -- ConstitutionDAO did not give ownership to its stake holders. It was a glorified IoU, a private fiat version of stock/equity into the so called Constitution copy. All the power was held by an LLC and

I feel you -- I have family that is waiting for GC. But this is not the thread to despair -- take a look at his strategy pick the elements and execute. Also, understand sooner or later there is a legislative exit for this issue. I am sure,

A quick search revealed that in 2019 88% of international transactions were made in USD. So even if Reserve Bank of India was doing this analysis -- they might likely take USD as a global reference instead of Indian Rupees.

The question is do the economics of self-driving cars work when you have to add and integrate all these additional equipment. Correct me, if I am wrong but aren't LIDAR cars supposed to cost you $200K+ ? Tesla is imitating humans in a

Slightly side question -- does this bi-directional interoperability improve Swift adoption to multiple platforms. Swift when it was released had much fanfare and definitely looked like a balanced language but as time passed has been limited

Not complete speculation - its a view of a by-stander. I have family working in Fabs but do not fully understand things and trying to piece things together. I know the fact Silicon does not come from Sand but mostly from Quartz. That is not

Coming to the main topic -- 1. Every major design corp has India campus, so India definitely has the talent for design 2. Coming to Fabs -- India lags big time. Why? I am going to give a half-informed answers -- please fact check and correc

I would not put INC and consolidation in one sentence. Actually it is the other way, INC fragmenting into regional satraps - that gave BJP enough wind behind its sail.

Every day is a campaign day in India -- every year there is election of State legislators or Municipalities/Panchayats/Zilla Parishads. Modi mastered it -- more than others. I went to India recently, every Gas Station has a big as

You want redundancy in the system, you have to pay the piper. What is the point for me to run a redundant but operationally more expensive system than my competition - when at the time my redundant infra is the only option, I do not get to

Original Content just goes against the fundamental appeal of YouTube that is "anyone can be creator". Of course, their investments in Shorts to compete against TicTok proves that they are no longer only game in town for "crea

When the legal guy tries to make the case -- it may be the right thing from Companies perspective but to me this a tad bit above PR with linguistic gymnastics of Legal. Not buying it, not going to waste my life reading these vacuous hocus p

I do not know if @EarlKing is part of solution but I can guarantee the smug douchebag who wrote the article is going to be a problem for Miami. This guy was drooling with contempt in his second sentence.

Correct. A freelance jurno making $40K in NYC has more social status than a Plumber with his own LLC making half a million a year. The former is closer to the cultural elite and the later is 'blue collar'.

It is consolidation of small time middlemen with a mega-corp. Some people do not have a dog in this fight, but Reliance is already so big in India, I do not see it as positive in long run but the infusion of technology and just in time supp
