You have a very odd reading of my comment Dang, how is criticizing the FBI's abuse of power nationalistic?

In many time periods in this countries short history, you would be dead wrong. But, I was more pointing to the bravery of these FBI agents, investigating this horrendous crime

What does that even mean? Plenty of people find farm animals adorable, why else would we have petting zoo's? Maybe it has something to do with the fact that humans eat meat, and we've gotten quite used to processing certain specie

Systems engineering roles are typically considers lesser / lower skilled than software roles as well. Which is absolutely ridiculous

The excellent PR opportunity is going to be the spectacular images it produces in 3-6 months time. I have a feeling some dark grainy photos of tin foil unrolling will pale in comparison to what the device will actually product

Could also be an aberration caused by the generally poor hiring practices used by these software companies. I have no idea what the talent pool actually looks like for these two industries. I have noticed there appears to be a huge divide b

You might want to mention your industry though, IIRC yours is quite esoteric (backbone/wholesale/IXP's). Generic software engineering roles have an incredibly high signal-to-noise ratio. Recruiting was pretty much required at

Which brings up a fun question; At which point does pressing buttons on a screen to play a video game while driving cause just as much distraction as pressing buttons on a screen to manage your windshield wipers / drive mode / HVA

But but but, automation! Americans have a very difficult time understanding how much blood sweat and tears it takes to get their food on the table, gas in their cars, planes in the air, etc. Increasing the cost to employ Americans in these

So that just means employers will cut hours to no more than 32 a week to avoid paying OT. Aren't progressives already complaining about people working multiple jobs to get by?

This might be difficult for the average HN’er to understand, but phone bans are incredibly common at blue collar jobs. Being seen with one when you should be moving boxes, flipping burgers, working the register, etc is usually grounds for r

I think the main problem is that stroads do not handle surge traffic well at all. They tend to end up sending blocks of cars 100-400 yards forward at a time, in intervals of 30 seconds to 2 minutes. With extra deadlocks happening when left

Same experience. Very very disappointed by the software, and now they are making it even worse by locking more and more of it behind a paywall. The device was nearly 650$ for christ sake.

Then none of this would be a problem. The issue is that frameless windows usually need electricity to operate

Didn't know that! The cars I've owned with frameless windows, the glass tucks under piece of trim. Makes sense that the miata design is a little noisy!

As long as you’re not heaving against the door as you open the latch the window will retract in time. If the battery went stone cold dead, you’d have to break the glass. But you would also have to do the same thing with every single other c

I don't know who actually thought Rivian was going to ship in 2021. This video from a year ago was in a completely empty factory with a single pathfinder chassis https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cACYuJ0jK_M They've

I would buy a car from a traditional automaker every single time when given the option between the two. I'm really excited to see how Rivian, Canoo, Lucid, and the like handle thousands of vehicles being reworked from their first year

And all the consumables that were specially manufactured for the processes used by each specific machine. Good luck finding whatever esoteric solutions you have to dump into the thing to get it to work

Nice link, looks like they still might have enough meat on the chassis to not require weird temporary structural bracing when unbolting the pack. It's almost like a body-on-pack, like the body-on-frame of old.

by waiseristy 5y ago
Unfortunately some OEM's have decided that structural batteries are the way of the future. Real difficult replace something that's a integral structural member of the car

Don't know why you were immediately down-voted, litigation is the wrong approach to use, since the litigation process is already captured by our national security cabal. I think many of us here writing walls of text plan to run for off

Definitely agree with all you said, and I especially agree with the implication that overeating is directly correlated with other aspects of your diet and lifestyle (sedation, anemia, etc.). I view weight as a function of calories-in-calori

I think you are reading too far into my McDonalds example. There are plenty of McDonalds without a drive through, who still overserve their customers. There are also plenty of people who are overweight just because they love to cook and eat
