Most homes in the EU have a three phase connection and can support 22kW wall charging. Homes in the EU can draw more power than homes in the US as we use 240V with the same amount of amps. That’s also part of the reason…
Americans pay more for worse outcomes, so this is clearly a political/priorities issue, not an issue with wealth. Other counterexamples are the other European countries with the same safety net which are not petro…
What a lot of people find refreshing in podcasts, etc. is that they don’t hide their biases. They might tell the truth, or maybe they lie, but at least they tell you (or clearly signal) their position. People I’ve…
I agree with you, although I would put it differently. Learning requires feedback, not necessarily failure. The issue with watching a video is not that you can’t fail, you can certainly fail to get the point made in a…
The argument being made is that once people are tearing out nails you’d tell them you’re the Easter bunny if you believe that that’ll make them stop. You’d tell them that you’re guilty even though you are innocent…
Dutch bicycle infrastructure didn’t just happen, our postwar governments were all set on building car infrastructure. They were even planning to demolish huge parts of old Amsterdam to build a highway right through the…
Turning the power off would work, but is that feasible? Even if we’d be able to spot the CME, would then have enough time left to shut down the entire power grid? The time between detection and the CME hitting us would…
Historically being fat was a signifier of wealth, as it implies that you can afford a lot of food. Some cultures also see it as a sign of fertility. This was also the case in the Western world until recently. Another…
It seems to flow from the idea that “might makes right”, but you replace might with money. If you make money you’re doing well. That idea can be extended to imply that being poor means you’ve done something wrong. To me…
