I was really doubting my perception of time for a minute there lol. T2 already felt like an older movie when the new minimum hit

Really both of those models show 60% as about the limit to where you're still effectively at the baseline for latency. 80% is just about the limit to where you're up there in the exponential rise, any higher and things become unusable.

0-60 and you're still at minimum latency. 60-80 you're at twice the latency but it's probably worth the cost savings of the extra compute density since it's still pretty low. Higher than 80 and things are already slowing down and getting exponentially worse by the request

Well duh! They got a kafkaesque promotion using their upgraded resume!

It's not the same as the current setup, as it would provide justification for control over every aspect of your life.

Like skydiving? Too bad, it costs us in heath care dollars, so we have to ban it. Competitive sports? Can't justify the cost. Oh and of COURSE you can't have free choice in your diet and libations. People make unhealthy choices and it costs all of us, so your choices will be made for you.

It won't go all the way there day one, probably won't go there fully in the end, but the effect will be real. Just look at how every aspect of our freedom was restricted over COVID, with the justification that your choices "impact other people".

It will put overly cautious or even just overly controlling public health individuals as having control they never should be allowed to have

"Single payer" really just means "no choice, and no competition". I wouldn't really expect things to get better under such a system, and worse it would put a much larger percentage of our freedom on the chopping block.

Just look at the all the stuff they pulled over COVID. It would usher in a terrible era where everything you do is free for someone else to say no to, because "we all pay for that".

I give it 10 years under such a system until we have a similar supreme Court ruling to the one we got for interstate trade. Except this time blowing out their scope of power to anything and everything, with no more limits

Seems like setting the stage ripe for a supply chain attack if something like alpine were to be hosted under those conditions

But he's a Republican. Why would a Google search for "fash" clear that up?

There was a good defcon talk of someone going way deeper than that https://youtu.be/5CzURm7OpAA

Groovy running on jython

What parts of the code did they write?

Not to mention the one most eroded by governments and private corporations in the name of "COVID"

Not achieving an unachievable fools errand isn't a failure. No matter what anyone ever did in any country would have ever had any chance of containing COVID whatsoever. Other than China in day one...

Have we passed the turing test?

Try a tenth of that in the US. Looks like at first glance there's 4,150 gas station fires a year

I never said it was common. But it's undeniable that it happens, and the consequences can be extremely expensive if not deadly.

Lung cancer is extremely rare, regardless of your risk factors. Yet people are still told not to smoke because of the risk increase over it.

> But what's the cost?

Exactly. That's why you're masked right now.

Oh you're not? Well then please tell me why not, and you'll have the answer to your own question

I'd say way less than half the people I see at gas stations actually go in and buy stuff, the fueling time is the limiting factor the vast majority of the time.

But that's besides the point anyways. Electric cars take forever to charge. So the turnover rate is a fraction of a normal gas station, and thus a lot more stations would have to be built out to accommodate the demand. That's the point, whether or not someone adds an extra minute buying a drink to their quick gas fill up has nothing to do with it

The times I've seen it happen will suffice

Well the reality is that sometimes the pumps don't shut off. I've seen it happen. It's not a statistics thing as much as just simply reality

Except that doesn't solve the problem. Those gas stations have an exponentially higher energy transfer rate than the chargers would. The delays will stack up in only that footprint. Not to mention those gas stations need a tiny fraction of the power. So there's no guarantee the electrical infrastructure is in place

That's how I give advice and it can be a huge struggle when working with people out of their element, or in a job they frankly didn't earn.

It's really the only way a productive design conversation can go, but those who can't contribute from their side of the fence will get frustrated. Saying things like "you just need to tell me what to do".

On the flip side, those who think they know better will have pretty much already made up their mind. Which makes things even worse if they don't know better, but for the competent ones this is the easiest and most effective setup of them all.

I find sleeping on a plane more comfortable with a seat belt on actually. I hook my thumbs into it and it gives me more support for my hands and arms.

Might not be great for my thumbs in that kind of situation though...

I didn't see any mention specifically calling out the left wing fear and rage machine either. So that makes sense! Or did I miss it?

Well without some form of locking you have a race condition. Two updates done at the same time can have the overwrite the other

That's just trying to keep from being bored during the long wait times using an EV introduces to the same routine road trip.

Changing behaviors would be like breaking the trip into shorter days, charging at night while sacrificing some days in the man destination

> That debate is pretty much over.

In what world and in what way? I don't know anybody who would rent an electric car and I certainly would not

> If you really don't have anything else to do, you'll probably just catch a tv show on your phone.

That's not changing behaviors, that's distracting yourself because refueling takes forever for an EV

They correctly understood it to mean abolish the police. As was made very clear by those who created the statement as they carried it the BLM riots in 2020

It came out of the BLM riots, and very much meant complete police abolishment. All the long winded after the fact redefinitions was just people wrapped up in it stepping in to save face. Since at this point they're linked to it and know it looks bad now that they've had a second to step back and think about it
