Sure, but nobody promised kWh offsetting would remain in place forever. $ offsetting can still save you money.

Also, because you entered the solar market first, you might have easier access to credit to upgrade it with batteries. So you'll benefit from price arbitrage more than the late-comers who have just taken a loan to install a solar roof and can't afford the batteries right now. Or you might buy a plugin car, charge it cheaply when the sun is high, and save on gas expenses (that's what I do since I work from home, :) and it's possible to both top up the car and charge the 4 kWh solar batteries in most sunny days with a very small 3 kW installation).

Which brings up another problem especially in Europe: taxes on gas are financing roads and the like in ways that sooner or later will have to be covered by increasing electricity prices. Right now, early buyers of electric cars are having their purchase subsidized because effectively they pay fewer[1] per-km taxes than owners of ICE cars.

The fact that veganism is not about solely harming animals, it is a philosophy which encompasses a wholesale rejection of animal subjugation; this includes suffering yes, but it also includes commodification and exploitation en masse. It is ethically extremely questionable to claim that you support animals, but to want to pretend to eat them.

I agree that's the short-term effect (although a carbon tax will likely start out small and increase over time so as to minimize unpopular effects), but in my experience this analysis is too sophisticated for most of this "sanctimonious environmentalist" group. I.e., people who tend to believe that the environment hinges on converting people to vegan cyclists are not likely to understand economics well enough to understand a carbon tax. This is a big and unflattering generalization for expedience sake, so I'm trusting readers to understand the larger point and not get mired in "this is a generalization!" counterarguments.

I wasn't looking at the original quote when I wrote what I wrote above, FWIW. And I wanted to avoid the instinctive inclination to write "he", so I went with "ze" because using "they" for singular case always feels forced and awkward to me. But yes, that would have been fine as well. It was a choice I made at a moment in time, not something that I spent a lot of time analyzing and debating. :-)
If anyone is here who works in the field of evolutionary biology can answer this: The article seems to be saying this result goes against the mainstream thinking that mutations are entirely random. But is that really the mainstream thinking of modern evolutionary scientists? Or just the simple high-school explanation which is devoid of a lot of known nuance?
>> Similar requirements in US have been revoked back in 1986 and trucks now can be much longer.

Why did they do that? Ugh. I'd much rather have the shorter and safer trucks around than the current US designs.

>> In Europe Semi-trucks are limited to 90 km/h

55 saves lives.

>> Cities in US have wide streets and interstate highways are very straight and wide.

#notallcities Too bad Boston doesn't have the authority to regulate truck designs allowed in the city. Or maybe they do and just aren't doing it because of the economic impact of requiring transshipping from highway semis to local delivery trucks outside the city. I wish they would anyway.
This is a fair observation. Interestingly, what you describe (a system 3x larger than your average load) is essentially what the grid has to have. Looking at the California data, here in Winter, today's peak usage is about 28 Megawatts and the overnight low is about 20MW. However, the peak all time usage for California is over 50MW. Our entire electric grid has to handle that 100% delta in usage; it's not surprising that a personal grid would have to handle at least that much delta. That's just what is required to have 24x7x365 electricity; you can't hide from that reality.
And you genuinely see nothing ethically questionable with supporting products which pretend that they are made from animals?
Me being sloppy, of course you can have 2-stroke or 4-stroke diesels. Edited to improve.

The main thing going on here isn't the cycles, it's the lack of a throttle plate. With these designs the amount of air entering cylinder doesn't relate to your throttle position.

If you come off the throttle every compression cycle a "full" cylinder of new air gets compressed, then decompresses and pushes against the piston. In normal operation the energy is re-transferred to the crank (with some loss). It sort of "bounces". But with a compression brake, you force the engine to do the work of compressing that air, but then full open the exhaust valve to let the pressure escape... much more energy lost each cycle, which transfers through drive train and slows you down.

In comparison to typical ICE: in that case when you come off the throttle, the intake is sealed off, so the cylinder on intake stroke is "sucking" against a closed path, which loses energy. Similar effect, different cause.

So, "we" might currently view the BJP that way. But at what point did Western consensus about "what nationalism in India is" change? I'm thinking about the Intermediate Value Theorem here. I think it started with, "anti-imperialism, yay!"

Or -- another example, because I don't want to pick on India. "We" now tend to view China as a Han-supremacist ethnostate (I think?), despite the Communist trappings. Nevertheless, at a point not long in the past, French students were carrying Mao's "Little Red Book".

North Korean "communism" is supposedly like this too -- very ethno-nationalist in character -- if you believe the analysis in The Impossible State.

Somewhat likewise, Soviet Internationalism turned into Soviet Imperialism and Russian Nationalism. Somehow now it's Putinism and the Orthodox Church is involved.

So then you move to other "leftist" and "indigenous" movements in South America, and, sure, there might be some red stars, but it seems to me that the force actually binding people together is ethnic nationalism. This is especially true for "indigenous" tribal identities. It's hard to get more "blood and soil" than their rhetoric. Hell, "#LandBack" is literal revanchism.

And every country that "fought (Ottoman) imperialism" in the Balkans, under the banner of "self-determination" (pop-quiz: What is the collective "self"?) did so using nationalism, which, half the time, quickly turned on local minorities.

So I am deeply skeptical of claims, by anyone, to be "on the left", or, even more than that, an "anti-imperialist". I think it's just a temporary and contingent thing, representing instantaneous balances of power, not fundamental principles. I am much more comfortable with liberal universalism.

Even the Nazis themselves marketed themselves as anti-imperialists to the left. Lots of people fell for it. People as smart as the ones in Robert Oppenheimer's social circles. "Yeah, we don't like the Nazis, but we'll use them to break the back of the British!"

So when, say, well-meaning white people go "Yeah! Africa for Africans!" I go: "Wait a minute. I mean, I get it. But have you really thought about this principle?" I think they cheer because, subliminally, they think the place isn't worth going to; they don't feel they're losing anything. They are also unaware that this means "expropriation without compensation" from a large class of South-Asians.

So I'm saying that a lot of this ethnic, "blood and soil" stuff seems to exist quite happily on what Westerners currently consider "the left". And then it grows, and then it gets powerful, and then later, retroactively, they go, "oh, I guess that was bad (== right)".

There's a blindness to this that I get tired of.

So to finally get back to my point, not only is there modernism on the right; there's anti-modernism, and even (barely-concealed) ethnic nationalism, on the left.

And then I worry about these centrifugal forces.

If Cloud Imperium Games thinks the answer is limiting what parts of their roadmap to share with the public is the answer, they are sadly mistaken. At this point, this is not a unrealistic expectation of their user problem, it is a CIG can't develop a game problem.

The team itself needs to ruthlessly cut features and develop a MVP game concept and execute it. At this point Star Citizen is already the next Duke Nuke'em forever, and it is now well on it's way to creating a class of it's own in the over-hyped gaming vapor-wear category.

Frankly, this type of conflict with and blaming of their own fans is a portent of the beginning of the end.
The early PS/2 line, at least, would still boot into BASIC, if I remember correctly. I'm fairly certain my Model 70 386 would do so, but I can't remember if I had to disconnect the hard disk or what. Anyway, I definitely remember the Model 25s doing so, but of course they were closer to XTs than they were to "real" PS/2s.

Like any movement, Nazism in Germany was a coalition, not a single thing. Hence it could absorb former-communists with a nationalist bent, monarchists, anti-modernists, reactionaries of various stripes along with radical futurists, etc. I never lumped them all together, just pointed out that a particular strain of thinking in pre-war Germany (including Heidegger, Steiner-types, etc.) laid over and let Nazism roll over them and in fact many became either ardent Nazis or quiet sympathizers.

It obviously also wasn't a stable coalition, as it included outright internal murderous purges and later after military defeat an almost total disintegration.

Similar things can be said about fascism in Italy, or Francoism in Spain. What united them was virulent anti-communism and nationalism.

As someone who hasn't played this, 5 years ago when I looked at videos, the UI seemed comically bad. Interacting with something brings up some flying UI text that gives in front of you until you disengage or select something. Recent videos show that same UI. Is that UI actually usable?

'novel' is a perfectly cromulent term for covid-19. what's not cromulent is the unreasonable and extraneous reaction to a 'new' cold virus. every new virus will have outsized effect until we settle into steady-state (which depends on the dynamics of the virus).

what leadership needed to do was identify the dynamic threat--mainly to the elderly & immune deficient--and mitigate for them, not run around screaming like discombobulated chickens promoting throw-everything-against-the-wall safetyism. we could have had highly targeted mitigations and minimal disruption to our lives; instead, we got incessant debates over useless masking, lockdowns, and vaccine mandates.

even including the elderly and immune deficient, over 99% of people get covid and recover just fine. this isn't the black plague by any stretch of the imagination.
A Jake brake is for long descents, it essentially uses the engine to slow down instead of the brakes to avoid overheating them.

Normal diesels do engine braking just fine, but not aggressive enough to shed speed on a long descent without over-revving, and you really don't want to do that with a diesel engine.

Depends on what drives the requirements. The cabin over engine design is probably a bigger PITA to service. If that adds $, people would move away from it.

The other thing to consider is driving distance and how it drives design. I would imagine the count of trucks that need sleeper compartments is much higher in the United States, and adopting a design that keeps parts more consistent for sleeper cabin and non-sleeper models probably has manufacturing benefits.

That's not true at all, as people use more electricity, aggregate usage gets higher and the grid eventually needs beefier interconnections, beefier transformers... The delivery charge would actually be fairer based on peak usage, as it has more relevance to the sizing of the grid.

Many ISPs do have peering agreements with Netflix[1] and the like. So they may be they are able to shape the traffic that way as well. All your Netflix traffic is going through that connection, so even if its not on Netflix side your ISP knows to throttle to the bandwidth that will get the resolution they want you to have.

I did exactly this. Started using T-Mobile Home Internet (5G "trashcan" modem) back in 21.02 (same month I ordered Starlink); TMHI service has gotten progressively better since that time. 21.12 I received my Starlink ultimatum ("if you don't cancel in 14(?) days we're sending your HW and billing you $100's more") and I decided TMHI @ $50/month (yes, completely unlimited) was sufficient. Also Verizon now has competing 5G and LTE offerings, so I figure worst case I (who have NO wired ISP option) at least have a strong backup plan. As another redundancy: everyone in my household has migrated to Visible cell phone service, which provides unlimited (but throttled at 5-10 Mbps) hotspot which we use maybe 2-3 times per month when TMHI service gets sluggish.
