    Technically all framework 13 laptops always have four things plugged into it because the ports are modular such that the user can choose which ports they want. Unless you're crazy …

    The institutions and trust that generations of Americans carefully built has been gleefully torched by cruel incompetents in the space of a handful years. The damage, physical and …

    It's funny to see all the commenters who didn't read the article closely enough or at all. This is basically the bluetooth device equivalent of "left S3 bucket open to public". Tha…

    Effective as a social signal, absolutely. Not for anything substantive. Again, besides the point.

    That's what it means to you, most users mean "something liberal/progressive I don't like".

    That's a fair point. Is it actually common for CEOs to live on a company property? I can see how transport would be company controlled.

    No one can even agree on what woke even means. "Woke mind virus" 99% of the time is uttered by extremely unserious and contrarian people. It's a fantastic signal that screams "Igno…

    If you look at the graph I linked, you can see that the world average for that statistic has consistently been higher compared to the US, though the two series have been converging…

    The people who doubted the sustainability of dot com era bubbles were correct even though the tech was actually transformational. Personally I expect roughly the same outcome.

    Yes, standardizing on a handful of designs will help immensely, as well as building two or more reactors on one site to share the overhead costs between units. For example, buildin…

    I mean the LWR fleet has proven to be incredibly safe by any objective measure with deaths per TWhr as good or better than wind/solar. The very incident you mentioned had a direct …
