If you like this sort of restoration, the BBC show "Repair Shop" is a lovely and wholesome show where master craftspeople fix people's family heirlooms. In the US it's all available on YouTube, elsewhere on various services.

Or if it was just valuable tracking data for them to have.

You don't need a law where there's profit incentives. Rewards programs track plenty.

But won't someone think of the shareholder value?

Take a look at "A City on Mars" https://www.acityonmars.com/ for a detailed analysis and a pretty entertaining book!

Really? I use active elevators in SF literally every day. Embarcadero and Montgomery Bart stations. Where in the city are you with no active escalators?

It is unlikely that the amount of debris would reach Kessler Syndrome-levels of orbital pollution, which is what you are describing.

6.5 minutes is soft boiled for a large (in US egg sizing) egg. Soft boiled eggs don't have fully set yolks or firm whites. These are the kinds of eggs you use for ramen.

If you want a fully set yolk you need more time (about 10 min or so), but that's a personal preference.

See: https://www.thekitchn.com/how-to-boil-eggs-perfectly-every-t...

I read this as "what caused this statement to appear in the summary". Was it the source materials or the LLM base model / hallucination?

Interestingly, Washington State (US) banned this back in 2017. I remember when I was younger actually getting these kinds of farms pointed out on a boat trip. The boat captain mocked them because they still legally called themselves "wild caught", since they existed in open water instead of farms.

LA is one of the most car-centric cities I've ever seen. "we can have less parking" would require a fundamental shift in culture.

Doing it right after a major fire where people are alive precisely because they were able to put themselves and a few belongings into their personal vehicle and go where they could shelter with friends or family is bordering on an impossible ask.

Not arguing, but what is UE in this context?

By that logic, also the CO2 footprint of manufacturing and transporting the fuel for an equivalent ICE vehicle, which is always conveniently left out of such calculations.

Sometimes headlines change after publishing. In this particular case it matches for me (without translating).

GP started with the premise "we don't need one printed in the 21st century".

A more generous reading of that argument might be "we don't need one authored in the 21st century", not that textbooks would never need reprinting and last forever through two dozen owners

I suspect "MRI-strength electromagnet" falls into a different budget category than "medical grade and certified imaging system", including but not limited to "MRI removed from hospital and junked because it's no longer maintained / useful / accurate enough". They are pretty resourceful

I don't mean to post a low-effort response, but Betteridge's law of headlines seems to apply here.

If the answer to the question posed in the headline was "yes" they would have stated it as such.

Instead it seems that "don't change things despite the world changing, decreased availability of resources, and increased completion for said scarce resources" is the main thrust of the post?

Maybe I misread but I tried

Seasoned product manager (17yrs as a PM) looking for next gig! Spent the last 4 years in startups (including hypergrowth). Lifelong learner, strong technical background (former dev). Worked with companies from 5 to 5000.

I'm no expert, but I'd assume "cleared for emergency evacuation in space" means "if the alternative is imminent, certain death - this option is better".

My understanding (correct me if I'm wrong) is that the tariffs are based on the source location of the battery components. Assembly doesn't matter unless you start mining lithium in NAFTA? That's why it's gonna hit some ebikes and the like.

I've known more than a few ex-religious of varying types who in young adulthood have to find an explanation for why:

- they are not at all who the faiths they were raised by said they should be - they know there's not actually anything wrong with themselves (or others like them), despite what their faith taught them

Squaring these two deeply personal realizations is challenging. People take many paths. Your interaction is an outlier, but by no means the most extreme I've encountered.

This is typical of displays - but not of holograms, which have historically been able to display only a single static image.

Chop shops to steal what? Tires? Window glass? There's not much to part out on an EV.

I get value from not having to carry keys. That's less bulk for me. I carry no keys at this point I my life, and it's great.

Locks are a societal agreement, not an impenetrable shield. My car is not a fortress or a safe. It's covered in glass. Having a mechanical switch inside a glass box is no more secure if your threat model is "someone technically advanced and highly motivated".

So the business school awarded money to develop a morally ambiguous (but likely profitable) "study aide" app, and the school ethics board said that creating and using it violated their cheating policies.

Sounds like the most realistic lesson that business school could have taught?

If we are doing anecdotes, a single tab Google doc with Grammarly running can easily surpass 4Gb of ram, especially if the doc is over about 30 pages. Use cases like that are not particularly uncommon.

Surely if you're concerned about privacy, an indelible public record of all transactions you made in and out isn't the way to accomplish that?

All Teslas have this. There are several "helpfully automatic" features that do not make for good times in a car wash: windshield wipers, folding mirrors, touch to open charging port, regenerative/automatic braking (on the moving track car washes). Can even temporarily disable the touch screen for cleaning. Car wash nice just disables a bunch of stuff so the windshield wipers and charging port don't get ripped off by spinning brushes and you don't have to remember where all the settings are.

Lots to make fun of on the Cybertruck but this is actually handy.
