A very brief search resulted in my finding that Kia EVs automatically lock the charging plug in place while charging. My guess is other manufacturers do as well or will.

If he’s happy and successful, I think he’s fine. In fact, perhaps better then fine. Plenty of new CS grads go straight into Product/Program Management, and there are plenty of other roles such as consulting and sales that really value

I think the meant the earnest money, not the down payment. The earnest money is lot less- I did like $3000 on a $700k purchase. The down payment is between you and your financing, the earnest money is what you put on the table for the offer

I posted on the parent as well, but I find non-competes reasonable only if they are time limited (like 6 months to a year), very narrowly tailored and affect a very small number of job openings. I think Google blocking someone from going to

To put that in context, snow/water ratios are normal about 10:1, so if what was snowing you’d expect close to a 1.5 feet to 3 feet of snow- that’s a lot, as my snow shoveling back is telling me. If my quick internet search is correct,

I’m seriously wondering about Southwest’s software systems at the moment. I was traveling with a youth sports team on American early this month. We had a flight cancellation that resulted in about 30 people needing to find new flights. You

Late reply, but the nature of the HOA is self perpetuating. It takes 75% of homeowners providing in writing that they want the HOA desolved, and it has to happen in a window that is only available every 5 years. That’s not 75% of votes, it’

That’s a tough one as Brady wasn’t an investor or executive but a supplier. Will the media companies that FTX bought ads with also need to give back their fees?

If working in or adjacent to the Microsoft stack, .NET Rocks (running since 2002!) and RunAs radio are great. Not quite developer media, but the .NET rocks geek out episodes are some of my favorite primers on anywhere. Linear digressions wa

IMO a big part of the issue is that these media products simply don’t need a full theatrical experience like a more commercialized “popcorn movie” does, so consumers who want an “film” experience don’t go to the expense and hassle of going

In this case, it looks like the 3rd wheel also substantially increases payload capacity- 415 lbs versus 350 on a radwagon, plus a slightly better cargo set up and substantially better load, unload experience.

Which largely doesn’t happen only because the US congress passed at an early explicit liability shield for gun manufacturers. It seems reasonable that this might prevail in court given the arguments in the post. No guarantee, but as they sa

A strong conclusion from a weak study. I do think the way the police intervened probably wasn’t effective- a one shot intense enforcement effort. A counter example is my kids school. Their was a real problem with people speeding through the

It’s also substantially more expensive to add in than putting up a new speed limit sign. “Change the speed limit” by changing a sign and “reengineer the road” are just different propositions entirely.

You are right to skeptical, but I think for the wrong reasons. I'm not very familiar with other serverless options, but it sounds like Azure functions will be fine performance-wise. After all, if you run into any issues you can just pu
