Great. Maybe all US digital communications could go through some kind of filter before publishing, to ensure that the speech is "free".

Don't give them any ideas...

The empty land doesn't produce power, wind does, and offshore it's stronger and more reliable, and it's in a location near big demand. All of the environmental issues are considera…

And eventually that arbitrage will be big enough to justify a pumped hydro/gravity/iron-air storage.

Also need to make sure you increase the speed going past floors 4 and 13 to avoid bad luck.

If the thing is going to blow up anyway, does it need to be light? Wouldn't you rather have more cheaper drones?

They should sell an add-on to your subscription so that if Claude is down it routes the queries to OpenAI. Then OpenAI can do the reverse for their subscriptions, and if both are d…

The author outlines problem after problem with private health insurance, then concludes somehow that they benefit the American public. Nowhere in this article is any reference to t…

According to AI, an equivalent would be roughly when Google maps shows you 10mi/20km reference scale. Turning off the labels, aliens would probably assume that the world is natural…

We should build a solar lens telescope. By the time we're ready to use it, we'll have a bunch of candidates to point it at.

You're being sarcastic, but literally every other developed country invests in trains and tens of millions of people drive EV's daily with no issues. If you want to argue that LLMs…

I agree with this. Tools are good, betting the farm on a single tool is bad. Example, cars are good. Betting the farm on cars to the detriment of bikes, buses, and trains is clearl…

I hope that becomes more common so long as privacy is respected. Fortunately my neighborhood is fairly quiet. I don't understand either, but I don't have a problem with people doin…

We could call the 13th month "Undecember"

I hadn't considered that aspect. Maybe sodium will see applications for hybrid diesel trains, medium haul trucks.

That's competing against LFP chemistry, so 33% penalty on a chemistry that itself has a penalty versus NMC. My understanding about sodium though is that the performance in cold and…

In my experience, the cycling and native-plant gardening types of Minneapolis are the ones ready to throw the tear gas cans back, and the fireworks-loving Texans are salivating ove…

Very cool finding. If it holds up even at a reduced factor when applied for to a whole pack, it could still result in a big improvement in cell life. That would make BESS more attr…

I disagree fundamentally. No, the president should not cut the "line". > especially if it doesn't hurt anyone else That's exactly the problem. Cutting the line DOES hurt other peop…

The Japanese Kei trucks have a cult following, so if this hits the right niche, it might be viable. I think these might have a slow start, but as long as the company can survive an…

This logic doesn't hold up. Should members of congress also get preferential access to experimental treatments? What about governors? We should not give any preferential access bas…

The fact that governments might not be able to stop people from using stablecoins affects the laws, though.

WONIBDFI (whether or not it's broke, don't fix it)

I'm still at step one. It's just unbearable. And the rage I feel at people who are apathetic or "there's nothing we can do" is so strong.

Would this be enough range for a typical bit of driving in CDMX? Seems like a painful road trip car, but you don't need so much range for a city car.
