Hyundai might have some great EV offerings that are cheaper, but Rivian does not have anything even close in terms of price, unless you only consider Plaid models. You can get a used model 3 for $20k now, which is good…

"Smart" TVs seem to fall into the same category. Manufacturers realized they can make much more money and hit a (much) lower price point by packaging telemetry and using/selling the data. Nowadays "dumb" TVs either…

While you're correct for 2/3 words, "billionaire" is the fifth word in the article: > Joe Liemandt is the billionaire founder and CEO of Trilogy Software and ESW Capital
Not entirely true. From the article: > The Federal Reserve's easy money policies have also kept mortgage rates near historic lows, pushing up demand for housing That said, I agree with your sentiment more than the…
For that figure to be true you would have to ignore the requirement that you maintain awareness and control of the vehicle at all times. Autopilot !== FSD. Your car did not "drive itself," you were in control of the car…
Personally, my sell threshold is when my BTC is worth enough (after CG taxes) to pay off my student loans. Given the latest price increases, it's getting very close :)
> But look at the last 15 years of foreign policy from "statesmen". We had two wars, Obama missed seeing the rise of ISIS, Syria is a humanitarian nightmare, we had a huge financial crash, and terrorism is on the rise.…
Valid points, but the i3 still has a niche in the market in that it's the only series-hybrid offering out there. For certain buyers that's enough to tip the needle, 200 mile range competitors or not.
I see the current crop of "half-assed hybrid cars" as a necessary step on the road to EV market acceptance; Public charging infrastructure is not at an acceptable level for the average consumer, so automakers found a…
FYI, you can change some settings for google ads[1] so that you're not shown targeted ads at all (for example). You can also block ads to have them and related ads never be shown again. [1]…
I fail to see how them building a photo organizer app has any relevance in his wish for a security minded email application. Sure, the company might know what they're doing, but nowhere in the introduction video did…
Great point. But speaking from experience, if you're using Us-East exclusively, you're [eventually] gonna have a bad time anyways...

It's more of a plot hole than fan-fiction. The article is an exhaustive look at provable (written) arguments that can refute the eagles as a possibile solution to the Mordor trip. The author is trying to prove that the…
I agree, but the author's note about the Council of Elrond is extremely convincing. If Tolkien wanted to strike this plan as a possibility, he could easily have added 1-2 lines into the Council talks where they discuss…
Given that the people in question are there for just days/weeks per year, their "use" of the services seems in line with the taxes they pay. Without knowing specific numbers it's hard to get exact math, but if someone…

Even if they do understate the issue, It's limited to US-EAST 1, and is an EBS issue. Saying that EC2 is "down" because of this is totally off the mark - I've got dozens of EBS volmes in EAST 1 that are unaffected, plus…
It's degraded performance for some EBS volumes in a single availability zone - isn't this title a bit sensationalistic?
