> Shanghai translates to "upon the sea"

Does it? "Upon the sea" would be 海上, not 上海. 上海 would have 上 as a verb, something more like "get onto the sea".

上 preceding the name might also be interpreted as "upper", as in 上卷 "Volume 1 (of 2)" / 下卷 "Volume 2 (of 2)". Is there a paired 下海 attested somewhere?

(Chinese place names involving some kind of spatial relationship are extremely common. But note that they all use normal grammar: 关中 "within (中) the pass (关)" / 关外 "outside (外) the pass"; 山西 "west (西) of the mountain (山) / 山东 "east (东) of the mountain"; 湖北 "north (北) of the lake (湖) / 湖南 "south (南) of the lake"; etc. etc. etc. etc.)

My backup broadband is 25/3; speed tests come in at 35/3. On three weekdays in 2020, there was a major outage on my primary (gigabit) connection and our home network failed over to the backup. This is during COVID, with three family members on video calls simultaneously. We barely noticed each time. A solid, actual 3mbit up is perfectly adequate for home use if you don't go overboard.
And what about the remainder that hear it and reject it? Are they not considered?

I'm Latino myself and I find that almost no one that actually speaks either Spanish or Portuguese (or another language commonly spoken in Latin America) as their first language adopts it. The few I've seen adopt it at those that are born and raised in the US and have relatively literal cultural connection to the country of their ancestors.

If Spanish or Portuguese are truly your native tongue, Latinx feels incredibly awkward. Personally, I'm uninterested in the opinions of those who aren't native speakers of one of these two languages when it comes to using the term Latinx or not.
I don't need to reverse it to imagine it - I'm a woman who has worked on teams that were otherwise all men, and I've never once felt excluded by a "hey guys", or even "hey dudes".

You know what does feel super awkward though? When someone says "hey guys" in the chat, and then immediately trips over themselves to "correct" themselves, because they're afraid they've hurt my feelings or that they will be called out for uttering "wrongspeak". It's absurd to assign ill-intent to someone for simply using a slightly different dialect of American English than yourself. I'm from the south, so I say "y'all", and nobody gives me a hard time over it.

Also - who cares if your coworkers have different tastes in things than you do? You're not at work to talk about TV shows or trade gifs. The whole "you should bond with your coworkers like they're your friends" thing is a toxic myth that companies promote for purely selfish reasons.
No civilization has fallen because they depleted the available energy. Some have failed because their use of energy outpaced their ability to extract available energy. The amount of energy available on just our planet is unfathomably large (e=mc2). The entire planet could run for 100 years on just the toxic waste from a single US nuclear plant. We could run the entire world for millions of years just on nuclear material filtered from sea water. And that is just using current nuclear technology.

We are not really energy constrained and simply using the available energy more efficiently can leave all parties better off on all but maybe billion year timelines.

I hope this is just sloppy writing on your part, because the sentiment your comment is actually conveying is downright dangerous.
1. Except your model is missing an extremely important figure. Modern economies thrive off of the energy variable. This is not some missing detail, it is critical.

2. No it is useful and highly practical. See here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26352352

3. Energy is limited in the amount that arrives from the sun per day and the amount we have the ability to extract from the earth and the sun and the wind per day. The limit is evident by the fact you have to pay for it. If it were unlimited, your energy bill would be zero.

There does exist products on earth that while not technically unlimited can be practically considered unlimited. One such example is the air you breath. Energy is NOT an example of this.

If I read this correctly, the point being made is that Honda got approval to allow drivers not to look at the road when in a traffic jam, which makes it technically level 3 when the car is in a traffic jam?

It's a bit of an overstatement to say Honda is leading self-driving. This seems like a great regulatory win in Japan, but not a very interesting technical achievement.
That is where this movement is being counterproductive -- it's injecting racial division into places where there was none (neither systemic, nor overt, nor covert) before.

One particular strength of male humans is their long reproductive years. There are many cases of 80 and 90 year old men reproducing.

Are these Honda cars using Cruise’s self driving system? I thought they had partnership for development and Cruise cars were suppose to enter Japan in 2021.

The parts I read that I could directly relate to from my own upbringing (a mix of Middle and mid-to-upper Prole, between the two sides of my family, with my own strong coating of Middle and accidentally-adopted Upper-Middle thinly painted on top) were very accurate and insightful, even when funny. I'm inclined to believe very little of it is manufactured or even exaggerated for entertainment value, despite the wit of the book and the way it sometimes reads as jokey, even when I know for a fact it's relating plain truth.

[EDIT] That is, I wouldn't take it as a straightforward academic effort or something like that, but I wouldn't dismiss it because it happens to be entertaining. Not one thing I had first-hand knowledge of in it make me go "oh come on, that's not quite right". I'd guess if it contains such, it's a very small portion of the book.
What makes you think their speech isn’t policed as well? Is your victimhood that ingrained that you believe the other side doesn’t play by the rules, they’re only out to get you?

I assure you the “woke left” polices their own —- it’s a constant source of tension between unity of political power and unity of beliefs.

There are a lot more people with "special needs" than people think.

In Australia, the (reported) rate of Autism in the general population is 0.7%. That's pretty huge, over 170,000 people. That's Autism alone.

Vogtle and Hinckley aren't cherry picking expensive plants, it's cherry picking middle of the road.

VC Summer is expensive, many billions spent and nothing to come of it ever.

Where do your cost numbers from Taishan come from? How do you come to costs that are believable from massive Chinese construction, or at least a cost that might be transferable at all to the rest of the world?

The history of nuclear is very clear: keep on increasing costs throughout construction, just enough that, taking into account the sunk cost fallacy, it makes sense to soldier on. VC Summer overshot that, and had massive corruption in the auditing of all parts of the project. Somehow Vogtle continues.

We literally do not know how to build nuclear in a cost effective manner any more. We can't structure contracts in the right way, we can't perform engineering to a high enough degree to make constructive plans. At Vogtle they literally poured the wrong concrete, and had to go back and get the design recertified with the NRC, because the original design was impossible to build, and on site they just plowed ahead with what they thought they could build. This is the level of incompetence, ball dropping, and bad contract structure.

Perhaps this sort of thing is fixable, but not on any reasonable timeline. The management is rotten from the top, so there's nobody that we can even order a nuclear reactor from.

Suppose you had $7.5B and wanted 3GW of nuclear at one of the many sites in the US that would welcome nuclear and its jobs. Who do you even bring that money to in order to build it? Rosatom? Are they going to meet NRC standards?

I was reading my old Dr. Seuss books to my son a few months ago and came across those depictions, so the announcement to stop publishing the book made sense to me. I had been debating about censoring my copy to skip the worst pages.

I'm not sure if we'll ever come back to that book (it's part of an anthology) but if we do it'll be when he's old enough to understand a conversation about why it's not okay. And then we'll skip the pages, because the book is better off without them anyway.
Fully agree with EFF here, and what's most frustrating is that Google could actually be on the side of banning tracking, and win big over Facebook.

Google had a fully working, very lucrative business model in search term based ads. You search for "office rent Arizona", and Google shows you ads about offices in Arizona. No privacy violations.

There was no other problem with search term based ads except that Google wanted to pump up shareholder value faster than what that could give them.
In this particular case, saying that the books were “cancelled” or banned is false. The publishing company was set up by his family and they are choosing to no longer publish or sell more copies. For them to be forced to publish those books again would actually be against free speech.

> BOSTON (AP) — Six Dr. Seuss books — including “And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street” and “If I Ran the Zoo” — will stop being published because of racist and insensitive imagery, the business that preserves and protects the author’s legacy said Tuesday.

> “These books portray people in ways that are hurtful and wrong,” Dr. Seuss Enterprises told The Associated Press in a statement that coincided with the late author and illustrator’s birthday.

> “Ceasing sales of these books is only part of our commitment and our broader plan to ensure Dr. Seuss Enterprises’ catalog represents and supports all communities and families,” it said.

> The other books affected are “McElligot’s Pool,” “On Beyond Zebra!,” “Scrambled Eggs Super!,” and “The Cat’s Quizzer.”

> The decision to cease publication and sales of the books was made last year after months of discussion, the company, which was founded by Seuss’ family, told AP.

Sue. That’s creating a hostile work environment. Civil rights laws are still based on actual equality and not critical theory, and racism against white people is a cognizable violation.
I have no problem with books retiring to respect the original vision instead of revise it to be more palatable to the zeitgeist. Modern society should move away from those things that actively made people feel less human and indoctrinate their children with those ideas. You will still have access to the materials. And Dr. Seuss estate is free to do what they want to highlight the positive while reduce the tarnish of Dr. Seuss commercially published racist works.
Let's be fair, this is just an opinion, and very subjective at that
We all keep talking about providing more facilities to working mothers but no-one talks about providing the social structure to keep previous generations together with current generation. Its like a taboo to advocate grandparents staying with parents and children.

There was a reason my parents could devote their energies towards whatever they were doing outside of raising me without having to go to extremes of waiting till their 40s etc - my grandma/aunts were with us. I was basically taken care of by a different loving person every few hours whenever my mother was busy. Granted my parents didn't have to deal with the stress of startups/corporate grinds but I'm sure they had their own share of stresses of a different kind (e.g. none of the technological comforts/tools we take for granted today). But atleast they got to deal with those stresses without just having each other for support. Sure, there were conflicts but then those are everywhere anyway. Unfortunately with people growing up in nuclear families, they do not have the background/emotional tools/training to deal with such conflicts creating a self-perpetuating cycle.

Its a little more than that. Amazon immediately pulled it and ebay stated they will start delisting auctions of the books. Sure, its not the government, but once big tech groups up to stomp something out it may as well be banned. I would be surprised if the hosting company pulls the plug on this site.
Just fyi, Nobody banned Seuss. Seuss Enterprises stopped publishing a few unpopular Seuss books.
Define "the wrong things." I see a year or two of productive work before I'd have to reach for anything with genuine doubts about business value. I might not read my stakeholders' minds exactly, or hit their preferred ordering, but I know they'd be consistently happy with the changes.

Ownership and vision are kind of the point of midlevel and senior roles. If you'd fall off the track in a matter of weeks, something is seriously wrong.
The utility is your kids being raised. For example, it doesn't make sense to pay you to clean your own room. People get pay because they provide value to another person, not because they provide value to themselves.

> It is not sustainable for everyone in the world to use the same amount of energy that is used by the United States. This is literally the definition of zero sum.
