Considering that, as males age, they shed their pinnacle androgenic hormone or testosterone ranges. Furthermore, at this point, you'll take note. Since, that gets rid of your time and efforts, muscle building, and stamina. On top of the, reduced androgenic hormone or testosterone helps make unwanted fat settle around your center. Coupled lines and wrinkles, it is each one of inferior information. Presently you are able to retaliate, however.

There is simply no car that compares if you like tech.

And there is no other practical (ie road trips) EV in the US.

These stories tend to be outliers, most people don’t know what a panel gap is and would never think to measure the ground clearance.
See, that’s another way of disconnecting reality from your wishes. In most countries, determining guilt is the prerogative of the justice system as it used to be in the US. But that has been corrupted. Belief, that there was a witch hunt exceeds the belief, that the justice system is just. Which gives short-term gains for whoever benefits from the former while the latter undermines the society long term. I have no idea, who did what, but I know a country or two, that is strategically interested in undermining the US democracy in the long run.

The article says both patients were put on ventilators:

> Two days later, she returned to the hospital where she was put on a ventilator.

> A day after her husband was put on a ventilator, Carol passed away.

The real story here is how the medical system did everything wrong in trying to help these two patients.

Ventilators are still death sentences. The tragedy is how medical practitioners still don't realize they have options.

We are no where close to automating most basic labors.

The hard truth is the investment is huge! And general automation, sufficient to replace basic labors on a meaningful scale is still in development.

May happen some day. It will be a long while though. Plenty long enough for this discussion to remain relevant.

Secondly, say we arrive at that point.

What changes?

People have costs to exist and be humans.

I put this in another comment: if we truly do not pay those costs, people die and or do not show up for work.

Lots of dead people is not helpful or desirable.

I think think this is the actual bill. So it is minimum pricing on time and miles backed into by hourly wages after utilization.

So 1.33/mile, but I think the time is total time not idle time like taxis, if so assuming an average of 30 mph add another dollar which puts it right at taxi pricing, and probably doesn’t include ubers fee.
No, it isn't. Your argument is just veiled prejudice to disenfranchise your political opponents, without any basis of facts.
That's awesome :). I remember writing that defense. I was very young and certain of myself, apparently.

According to the ftc for predatory pricing to be illegal you need to use it to drive out the competitors and then gouge customers until you recoup your losses.

In the US anti-trust is absurdly focused on whether there is costs in the form of high prices passed onto the consumer.
I remember being so disappointed, when I was finally able to buy my first-ever new car, to find out that you CAN'T really get it the way you want it, not anymore.

Too many decades of Americans buying whatever car happens to be sitting on the lot today (usually in silver paint with beige interior) means that most vehicles aren't available with any real selection of options (they're typically packaged together), no interesting paint colors, and dealers that are uninterested in finding what you actually want. It's staggering to me that people apparently feel they don't have any power to get what they want when laying out a huge chunk of money.
I wondered when they would finally ditch the landing legs. It’s just an extra added dead weight.

One technique is to reinforce the rocket base with more metal padding, and then on landing, the ground-based robotic clamps would magnetically lock on to the reinforced metal padding.

Or they can do it this way, and have a magnetic picker lock onto the top of the rocket. Then it would gently lower it to its final resting position.

But I think they would have to hover the rocket for a few extra seconds, while the robotic arm moves itself into place to perform the final catch. This would require more fuel, which reduces payload capability.

There are a lot of differences in the way Toyota manufactures cars compared to, say, typical US manufacturers and the differences are extensively studied in the literature. These techniques have been adapted to other fields, even software development. If you ever heard the term “kanban board”, well, that system is based on Toyota’s manufacturing system.

One of the principles of Toyota’s process is that they will stop the assembly line to fix defects. This sounds simple, but other manufacturers will keep the assembly line moving, putting pressure on workers to complete their steps faster.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_Production_System

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Toyota_Way

One of the classic case studies is the Fremont Assembly plant in Fremont, California, which was run by GM until 1982 when it closed due to production problems. It was considered an embarrassment to the US automotive industry. Cars from the Fremont plant would come off the assembly line with major defects and they couldn’t be shipped to dealers. When I say “major defects”, think “this car can’t be shipped to a dealer, because it is missing a door.”

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fremont_Assembly

Toyota needed to manufacture vehicles in North America and created a joint venture with GM called NUMMI, which reopened the plant in 1984—manufacturing both GM and Toyota vehicles. The existing workforce was sent to Japan to learn Toyota’s manufacturing system. The defect rate dropped dramatically after Toyota’s involvement. GM attempted to take what they learned from Toyota and bring it to other factories in the US, but failed.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NUMMI

For various reasons, the plant shut down in 2010. It is now a Tesla plant.
That’s interesting about the 1.1.1.1 certificate.

I wasn’t refuting jackewiehose‘s comment about HTTPS hassles. I was just sharing a specific example of a hassle.

2. Core soft skills (for eg. Negotiation, selling, connection, etc.)

3. Developing Classic virtues (patience, focus, determination)

4. Long term relationships with solid people

5. Healthy habits and knowledge (exercise, diet, skincare, stretching)

6. Investing your money wisely / using debt wisely

7. Getting Adequate Sleep

8. Going on an “information diet”

9. Releasing past emotional trauma

10. Assessing your own strengths and weaknesses accurately

11. Hacking your mind’s experience reality to see through the subject / object duality

12. Avoiding addiction to stuff that doesn’t add value to your life

13. Thinking bigger

14. Regular and thorough Hand washing

15. Practicing gratitude
Your recollection sounds about right to me.
It seems this logic could just as easily be used assert that entitlement programs should be reduced to match minimum wage, just as well as raising minimum wage to reach parity with entitlement programs.

I'm not saying we should; but it seems like there's some other component that needs to be added to your logic, and a quick brainstorm by my non-economist brain doesn't seem to be able to fill it in.
I've got mixed feeling about this page.

1. It does list some completely valid options which are good to know. All of them are interesting both from the perspective of learning about more Linux internals and actually locking down access where needed.

2. It mixes security and privacy. Some privacy things may be interesting, but going as far as removing your machine-id? What's the scenario here exactly?

3. It tells you what you can do, but often doesn't say why. What's the threat model? It bounces between things that could be useful for the desktop and for the server. If you're protecting yourself at home, what exactly does blocking ICMP provide you, given it's likely both a flat network and you're registered in both upnp and mdns?

4. Some points I find really questionable: It says to avoid distros with systemd, however systemd was the first one to really bring service sandboxing to the masses. So many issues could be avoided if we used PrivateTmp years ago. Some points are really bad: Avoiding distros that freeze packages (I guess vs rolling distros) is not a trivial change and is not obviously more secure.

5. https://xkcd.com/1200/ - Sure you can put all of those extra options in kernel boot, the extra layers of service separation, spend time hiding identifiers and network options. Unless you're specifically targeted, nobody will ever try that. You'll be owned by some XSS which pulls your login cookie - and the list doesn't even mention Firefox tab containers which can separate that content. Or if someone's targeting developers, your SSH key will get extracted - and the post doesn't even mention hardware SSH keys.

Overall it reminds me of CIS policies. "Here's a CIS certified docker image. It has aida and tcpwrapper on it, because security."

It's possible to configure a car to your specifications, but you have to find a dealer willing to commit their order quota to it and wait a few months for the car to arrive. Do not expect much haggling if you take this path.

> Door fit is a major issue for anyone and everyone. You simply cannot engineer doors to fit right, the assembly line guys always have to pull it, twist it and ‘align’ it.

I know nothing about manufacturing for cars or anything else, but ... why can't doors be engineered to just fit? In terms of absolute tolerances, I'm guessing all the stuff in the engine or transmission for a typical car is far more stringent, right? Is there something specific to the manufacturing process for doors or frames that is less controlled or precise?
> most people don’t know what a panel gap is and would never think to measure the ground clearance.

That doesn't excuse poor engineering. You also might measure ground clearance if you can't park your car:

"
His car has a 12 cm (4.7 in) ground clearance, which will not allow him to enter his parking spot – hence his concern about it.
"
In which language? Is there still significant gaps between languages?
Most of the ideas are good but I think you need a pretty big team to sustain your systems if you're flipping all the security switches to non-default values.

It would be fine as a one-time activity but it creates an ongoing stream of work to deal with breakages, particularly during upgrades.

Your OS ends up in a configuration that no upstream devs have tested compatibility for and you end up shouldering that for each component of your workload.

The recommended security options (given you have opted to tweak all the things) change over time as well and that creates additional work.

I think for many (most?) teams choosing a minimalist OS where an upstream does this kind of maintenance (say COOS or BottleRocket in container world) will produce better real-world results.
> A living wage for an individual with no children in King County, Washington is $16.09 per hour worked. If you pay less than that, the government via entitlement programs makes up the difference.

That isn't how a NIT/UBI works. There is no making up the difference, everyone gets the same amount from the government in all cases.

Moreover, the frame you're using is that the employer owes the employee a living wage. It assumes that if the employer can't stay in business paying $16.09 then the employee will get the higher wage regardless. But if that alternative was available, why wouldn't they have taken the other, higher paying job to begin with? And if the alternative is instead unemployment, you are obviously doing no one any favors by prohibiting them from making some money rather than none.

Meanwhile it doesn't take into account the cost differences inherent in different forms of employment. If you work across the street from where you live, you have no commuting expense. If you work 60 miles away, at $.59/mile you have >$70/day in commuting expense, equivalent to $8.85/hour in wages. After taxes. And you lose two hours a day to sitting in traffic. It would be totally rational for someone to prefer the job across the street for $7.50/hour to the one 60 miles away for $16.09/hour, but your position is that they should be prohibited from taking that job even though it would be better for both them and society.
To be clear I’m just playing devils advocate, but how can we be certain the virus originated in Wuhan? There's quite possibly information I'm not aware of that refutes this, but isn’t it equally likely that it was first discovered there and it originated somewhere else given the number of asymptomatic cases?
What exactly does make Tesla a tech company compared to other car manufacturers?

Nearly all car manufacturers have adaptive cruise control somewhere in their lineup - they just don't claim to reach FSD with the currently used hardware. But almost all are actively researching FSD with different hardware.

Making EVs doesn't make you a tech company. ICE are even more complicated than electric engines and Tesla doesn't make their batteries themselves.

I'm getting strong WeWork vibes from Tesla's claim to be a tech company.
On the bright side, unless VMware's interoperability database is mistaken, vCenter 6.7 U3 can manage hosts back to ESXi 6.0, so this is at least "retrospectively true" unless you're stuck on an earlier vCenter version.
I really don’t know more on the subject than Graeber writes. He describes it as a fairly regular occurrence in some societies, associated with upheaval (like citizens getting angry about overburdening debt or a new regime wanting to ingratiate itself).

Sort of like the current debate on college debt.
This is, in some sense, like comparing a factory to a product. HTML5 is the barebones of technological tools necessary to build something that does what flash can do, not the flash itself. Being content-first is up to YOUR SDK, not HTML5.
Regarding single-file apps, when did the ability to use inline scripts and style vanish? Nothing prevents a tool to generate genuinely cross-platform "single-file" htmls.

Don't blame HTML5 for the fact that no one bothered to make a content-first studio out of it.
Didn't the Model 3 ramp production incredibly fast and sell for less than any comparable EV?
> And wake me up when you can think of a coherent criticism of the law of comparative advantage.

In exchange I would like you to tell me exactly how in the world you can claim "US manufacturing post NAFTA has been stronger than ever". I've heard about the benifits to consumer prices sure, and that a certain amount of manufacturing has returned due to robotization, but even if that is factored in I'm a bit confused as to how this claim is even close to reality.

1. CA assumes particpating consumers and businesses have knowledge of location of lowest cost, which isn't always true.

2. CA ignores transport costs which can easily offset the raw CA numbers.

3. CA fails to factor in lack of or monopoly on economies of scale.

4. CA also fails to factor in rates of inflation, subsidies, lack of or high import controls etc.

5. It fails to take into account non-price factors such as brand loyalty, item quality, etc.

6. Exchange rates can undermine raw CA numbers.

7. CA ignores IP legal issues mostly surrounding R&D investment.

8. CA still fails to take into account second and third teir effects needed to institute CA. So as I referenced before, Guatemala as an example, had to have a coup performed against it first, with massive amounts of suffering and theft from people to pave a way for the "free-trade" state needed for CA to come into effect. That loss of life and wealth as a prereq isn't factored in.
This is weird to me because it seems much easier for a mfg company(read, all other car makers) to throw cash and catch up in tech, than it is for a tech company(tesla) to nail manufacturing. AutoPilot aside, for now.
Yeah it's as if we evolved to have a brain that is good at learning itself. We aren't good at any one thing except learning.
> If your business cannot afford to pay what the government defines as a living wage, it does not have a viable business model.

Is that what you are really saying?

Because there is a difference between a government-defined living wage and the true economic value of any particular job.
All that 'HTML 5 video' did was move responsibility for the media player from an extension and into the browser, and wrap it in standard markup.

Same! What’s especially misleading is that most of the car manufacturer websites have a “Build your own” tool where you can select the features and options that you want, only to discover that no cars exist in that configuration.
Interesting, so which technologies do 16 and 17 year olds learn in HS CS courses?
This list is cool, but I think it would be more useful with some quick notes on side effects. I think all but the most hardcore Linux lovers won't have enough breadth and depth to understand the full ramifications of many of these config changes.

I'm no Linux expert but even having used it for a fair number of years, I only have a shallow understanding of most of the things that are tweaked here, if I've even heard of them at all. For example, it says "kernel.kexec_load_disabled=1", and points out the threat which I can understand, but I don't know what that's used for in the first place. Perhaps it isn't really ever used for anything, but it'd be nice to be told that, because my initial line of thinking is that these defaults must be defaults for a reason and that makes me hesitant to actually make any of the changes.
