I've replicated this test over the years on inefficient gas guzzling American sedans, fuel efficient econobox hatchbacks, and sporty performance SKUs of mainstream product lines. These are hardly Shelby Cobra and Bugatti vehicles.

Since you're someone who tracks numbers, you might try doing a run with 91 or 93. I've done the comparison on every car I've owned and in every case the dollars per mile (not dollars per gallon) is better with the higher octa

Every car I've owned, I've done a compare and contrast on 91 or 93 vs 87 octane gas. Each time I do the comparison I find that the cost per mile (not cost per gallon) is lower with the higher octane gas. The only time I buy 87 is

As someone who's built this kind of multi-player undo/redo in the past all I can say is this looks amazing and I can't wait to try it in one of my projects - Thanks for building this!

If you go back a bit farther, I think you'll find the work on nuclear winter actually came out of work done at Cornell to try to model the result of a large object impacting the earth 65 million years ago to kill off the dinosaurs. Ama

WW3 almost certainly also means no more communications satellites and no more weather satellites, in addition to no more humans in space. It would likely also mean nuclear winter and many other bad things, but permanently denying use of sat

I suspect we're encountering a planning vs logging fork here. If you primarily use a daily page to log or track what you did, then terms like journal or diary seem most natural to you. If you primarily use it to plan or list what you n

In the US we commonly call both of these "calendars". If we need to distinguish between the two, we'll generally use "day planner" to refer to the book you're calling a diary.

Has anyone seen stats on what fraction of their source material for the recycled plastic is post-consumer waste vs manufacturing waste?

by yodon 4y ago
The issue isn't whether people put plastic waste into recycling bins, it's about whether any of that plastic gets taken out of the bins and re-used in commercial processes. Today, across the entire world, that answer is essentiall

The market for post-consumer recycled plastic materials is arbitrarily close to zero. Plastic recyclables just go into a different landfill than regular waste. The recyclable symbols on the things you buy are there to make you feel better a
