The only thing different from this list is the ceramic separator. It’s not polymer. However, the ceramic is ultra thin to the point that it’s flexible so volume expansion isn’t a p…

Ah yes, the old - it’s too complex to understand by outsiders argument. And claims of racism to boot. Taiwan is Chinese, they don’t have this system. So spare me the crocodile tear…

Correct, so long as there is a state controlled media and no independent media and we can only speculate on where people who have “disappeared” from public view are, this is exactl…

This is just Chinese propaganda and you’ve swallowed it while. China is undergoing a massive recession and they haven’t protected citizens. They won’t let citizens be refunded or c…

Again, the govt was responsible for pushing this framework in the chase for gdp growth. They’ve paid for it now. They’re deep in a recession with signs it may be a 1990’s style Jap…

Nope they didn’t. They refuse to let citizens cancel the mortgages even though developers haven’t delivered condos for years and they haven’t bailed out the little folk. Moreover C…

Not at all what’s happening. China’s government privatized real estate and was the engine of the bubble by disallowing localities from taxing and only allowing revenues via land sa…

China is undergoing a 2008 style financial crisis due to real estate speculation and deflation due to very weak domestic spending. They have drowned their municipalities in debt cu…

There is some weird obsession on the internet about proving the U.S. is the worst at everything. Believe me, the majority of “The rest of the world” does not protect its citizens f…

Home ownership is not the definition of economic class. The s&p has vastly outstripped inflation, this isn’t even an argument. It’s a very bizarre and uninformed opinion to say “in…

Is it ironic? Or did you just read the comment incorrectly?

Feelings aren’t fact. A lot of data shows the doomerism is not reflected in the actual numbers and much of it has to do with rapid inflation and continued vibes. Consumption has ri…

NYC was built without alleyways and much of NYC is single vaulted sewer systems due to its age. There is no space to put underground trash bins. NYC is also non-uniform, so there a…

5 minute swap is not needed for this.

As someone who suffers from a complex autoimmune disorder which has caused dysautonomia and suspected mitochondrial dysfunction, stress flares and exacerbates symptoms. This has a …

Only someone trying to silence any dissent to their position would use platitudes like this rather than addressing why the OP mentioned antisemitism out of nowhere.

It’s very clear that comment is agent provocateurs trying to sow discord. They have a lot of comments about “the west”.

I’ve seen minimal gains trying to adopt agents into my workflow beyond tests and explanations. It tends to be distracting. It’s so interesting that engineers will criticize context…
