I mean, if you don't like the slope of the line on county level (included in the article), the state level lines (click on the graph to get to the tableau) have a stronger slope. But overall, you're accusing the author of bias in cherry picking the data or you're doubting statistics because the data is significant but not eye poppingly so. Really, the weakest link is the title - searching for race war isn't an act of white nationalism all the time, and may be searched by both pro and anti factions to understand why it is trending.
Overall, I thought it was really cool to not just publish the data, but also present the graphics in a way you can confirm yourself.
The Gov. of Texas called for PMs this spring to be cut short due to an early heat wave. That means that some plants lost 1/3 of their planned PM time to be back online.
That is the Texas model... let miners drive up the average price for consumers across Texas, with the idea they will voluntarily stop mining and free up capacity when there is a power surge event. The Governor is so into free market ideology that instead of pricing capacity into the system, we are relying on private groups of miners to 'do the right thing' when needed. Meanwhile, the energy companies are seeking my permission to auto-adjust my smart thermostat to keep the miners running.
I think this has to be seen in the larger context. The broadcaster was trying to be helpful, but broke the rules. No conclusión presented if he was actually helpful.
But aside from intent, if the government didn’t enforce this strictly, it would open up the opportunity for all number of ‘helpful’ folks to chime up in the future, which could have a slippery slope. They don’t want to be in the business of carving out a ‘helpful’ exception and then have to draw the line on how helpful is worth it. Seems like a recipe for inconsistent enforcement.
And just like that, I find that my love I developed a love for robusta mixed in espresso came from a lie (or lack of reading closely). <sincerely> Thanks for pointing that out. </s>
I came by my love of robusta in northern Italy / southern Switzerland, where the local roaster made a blend. Most other coffees just lacked the pizazz.
You’re looking to mock ‘gender’, how people choose to view their natural state. Sex is the biologically based one, which includes male, female, and a couple other ones such as intersex.
Disclaimer: I’m only about 80% sure of this comment, but thought it would be helpful to make the distinction known.
They (Toyota) did make the only successor to the Volt - the RAV4 Prime. I literally just made the upgrade and it delivers on the promises the Volt made.
Read your Retail Installment Contract - it will call out all the fees and things. Most dealers pay the origination fees, but often make up the difference in something call 'participation', where they charge you a higher APR and share the extra interest charges with the lender
like this generation migrated from Africa? Cause that seems awful close to saying that folks that had many systems tilted against them for a long time aren't up to par with folks that had systems working for them. As a higher post pointed out, catching up takes more resources than coasting on the hand downs from systems of generations past.
I've been really struggling to see the benefit from autodiff... I work with DAGs, where the data processes are batches that could be processed in parallel and I would love to speed that up, or to enable some gradient descent style optimization.... but I can't figure out how autodiff plays into it.
Do you know of a good place to help learn how it could apply to my domain?
My only issue with slides is that indention is super strange. You can be editing a list of nice tightly indented bullets, and then bam - one of them is suddenly an inch away from the rest. And that little bullet is contagious, it will eat and infect all the other nicely formatted list bullets like an out of control zombie movie. Internally, I assume the feature is named "We're all already indented 3 inches".
Unwelding is just grinding out the weld and maybe some of the other heat affected zone. It isn't super uncommon.
Perhaps you didn't have the right tool to remove the nails, or they had just been freshly installed. Their grip strength in particle board / chip board isn't that strong, and with just a little play it is easy to slip a small pry bar under the head. Something like the little one here will help a lot: https://www.homedepot.com/p/Dasco-Pro-7-5-in-Ultra-Bar-II-wi...
If you want to be 100% on image capture, you will need some redundancy. Plan your budget for two cameras and backup systems. Local caching invade wifi goes down. Which is more important, that the image is taken or the if taken it is transmitted? That answer will inform where you apply additional redundancy. Maybe plan to take many images plus/minus 5 minutes of your target time in case there is something standing there to block the camera.
I’m always skeptical of anything based on ‘revolutionary new technology’ established as the credible source of the claim, without a deep dive or explanation of said tech.
Like literally, the amount of instances where the government is weighing life/death is very small, even smaller at the federal level (most death penalty cases are against state laws). If you're meaning in the 'government programs can greatly affect my quality of life', then private companies can totally do that too - through targeted advertising.
In Texas, we say that feeling is what guns and dogs are for. (note: if you go too far down the rabbit hole on the former, the government may impolitely take care of the latter.)
Thats 1 in 14. Still seems high (like apparently 1 in 14 people). I suspect it is very clumpy, especially if you put a time period restriction on it (which would likely lower the percentage)
This is a good response. I think California already does things like this, by having a non-partisan redistricting process. Texas, on the other hand, could barely more embrace parternship.
Make districts competitive. As long as the measure (votes in an election district) can be shaped such that winning the primary (initial election to determine the rep. for each party) basically promises a win in the general (an election where one rep from each party competes), polarization will go up and moderation will go down. Once districts are competitive, reps will face more pressure to the will of the people, as opposed to the people in just their party.
I think it will only hurt 401k's if they have over a billon in assets, or pull out $100M/annual. In which case... I think I'm still ok with it. I remember someone has a billon+ Roth IRA, and at some point that is just getting really lucky and then abusing the structure.
For illiquid holdings, the plan only taxes them at time of sell (which, by definition is when they are liquid). The only thing that is taxed continually are things like stocks, that are pretty liquid (though can be put into structures that make it illiquid, which may be a tax avoidance strategy?)
I don't think I've ever seen a more clear setup of a straw man than this; "Let me offer the briefest overview of the core beliefs of the Woke Revolution, which are abundantly clear to anyone willing to look past the hashtags and the jargon."
It even comes with a side of looking-down-on to anyone that refutes the strawman as 'not looking past the hashtags'.
