You're not making any sense. If things worked like you say, the industrial manufacturers would just put solar on their roofs, save a bunch of money, and that'd be the end of the story. If rooftop solar power were so…
I can't help but wonder if publishing this was a desperate but calculated play for attention. I bet it's their most shared and discussed article ever. Genuine or not they abandoned their readers who genuinely wanted to…
Come on, some things just aren't worth reading. Political content masquerading as science is at the top of that list. >Instead you doubled down on remaining ignorant. Not even that, but you think it's worth bragging…

The company had a valuation of about $500million USD (converted from INR) before the incident. Now it's likely worthless, because of an incident that could have been prevented by hiring one competent person. Moral…
Absolute statements like this are just nonsense. Companies really will undercut each other on price to get customers. How much this happens depends on how competitive the market is. And one of the ingredients of a…
The privatized water companies were not the ones responsible for the Furnace Brook pollution. Morgan Farms is burying waste on their property and failing to contain it while the EA (government regulators) are…
One year of the data center's water use was equivalent to half a day of the city of Lincoln's water use. These arguments about data center water use are so dumb they distract from actual water conservation efforts too.
In the economy of the 70s you could walk into a business with a high school diploma, ask for a job, and get offered enough pay relative to housing costs to save for a home. Now you have to spend 4 years studying and go…
Expected damage(broke with pet) > Expected damage(broke and no pet). When a person doesn't pay for damages, how much damage they did very much matters. Why is that hard for you to wrap your head around?
It's an insurance premium of sorts. They are statistically much more likely to have a problem, so they adjust they rent to make the deal a positive expected value again. Urine soaking into a subfloor can easily cost…
How many of those 64% had their accident because of phones/drugs/recklessness and claimed to be distracted instead? With all the liability and shame involved in fatal crashes there's absolutely no way people are going…
You're wrong! [I'm sure you won't have any desire for me to explain my position and will regard this interaction positively.]
What do you want people to say? "Yay, the terrible law that threatened to make free computing illegal has an exemption for Linux. Now we only have to deal with unwanted mandatory age verification on all our non-linux…
Discount tire estimates 70% of the current tire options will be illegal to sell in CA. Millions of people will be pushed into different tires than they have based on a limited list of options. Many of those as…
Good Lord. You know that Anduril industries will keep making drones no matter how many discussions about retro gaming you ruin right? This backlash can hurt modretro, it can affect the author of this game, but the…
I think you misread...the quote is about recycling the adhesive itself with hand sanitizer, not pieces assembled with it. Running an industrial recycling process with unwanted hand sanitizer as a solvent is peak comedy.…
Early Firefox was the example. Looking at Firefox's market share decline since Eich got replaced reinforces the point though.
Hey man, you made a successful product, wrote a great article, and are now getting attention for it. You don't need to respond to every person who wants to nit pick at your title :) I think there's a lot of people…
I mean mods are always about tradeoffs. You're generally not smarter than the team of engineers that designed it, but you probably do have different goals, that's where the opportunity to improve an aspect of the car…
The author doesn't do that either. A 50 year old got excited about a Toyota Corolla and everyone is blaming him for the decline of fucking society.
Dude...gp comment was making the completely inoffensive point that politics has more complexity than pro/against Trump. It's almost too obvious to say, but it wasn't really being factored into the discussion so it was…
From the details I read in the post you are almost certainly wrong, not to mention being reallying condescending. The interviewer has control over the room. They steer the conversation. They could have stopped this at…
If you've ever driven more than 5 miles an hour, you risked hurting someone for your convenience. Acknowledging life has risk tradeoffs doesn't make you an American, but denying it can make you a self-righteous jerk.
