Get ready for no flu vaccines for similar circumstances as well!

You think they get medical care in El Salvador’s CECOT?

Sounds like the perfect first test subject as it’ll probably wrap up quicker than Luigis case.

If the government suspects them of doing this, couldn’t they pass a law requiring them to display the tarrif amount?

Not sure we could expect the government to do that either, but seems like an option.

I read one a week ago or so that started with Matt Gaetz (I think, if not him someone like him) going to El Salvador to see their prisons, and I thought it was going to end with some line about him being appalled by the conditions. Turns out the visit was many months ago and after seeing it, it was his idea to deport people there.

The new batteries are also durable enough to be recharged frequently for at least eight years.

That doesn’t sound super promising…

The battery warranty on EVs is 8 years and no one expects them to die after that. It should be much longer than 8 years, not at least 8 years.

Edit: I’d add I’d be okay with a battery that should last around 8 years, if the cost was substantially cheaper and it was easily replaceable. But I’m thinking something like 5k for a complete replacement all in, and that’s not what this would be. Like some cheap 25k vehicle that somewhere around 8-10 years you maybe replace the battery. So it’s more like a 30k vehicle with an expected maintenance item down the road. The whole thing would need to be upfront and part of the buying/sale process, and it’d need to feel like a 30k vehicle.

Next election on the ballot.

Ballot measures by the people cannot be revoked / overturned / undone or in any way shape or form be contradicted, other than through a future ballot measure at the following election. ANY ATTEMPT TO DO SO BY AN ELECTED OFFICIAL IN ANY MANNER WHATSOEVER RESULTS IN THEIR IMMEDIATE DECAPITATION IN A PUBLIC SQUARE.

Putin: How long would it take to seize Kyiv? Can we do it in three days?

YES MAN: THREE DAYS SIR! YES SIR!

I moved from a location that had fluoride where I grew up, to one that didn’t as an adult, and with the same oral routine, I went from 1 cavity to like a dozen and multiple root canals.

I’m not saying my routine was sufficient and I’ve gotten better at it, but if people are used to one thing and it suddenly changes, they’re gonna be pretty surprised at the impact.

Did you say Magnets?

That’s the exact kind of thing experienced developers want to do.

They don’t always want to just write easy code again and again. That can get boring and tedious. They want to come into a project with difficult problems and take ownership of them and solve them.

I’m a senior mobile dev, and I needed a website for the app which I’ve never done before. AI was able to help me make one. Is it a well programmed website? Nope! Does it work? Yep!

With my knowledge I was able to troubleshoot problems the AI created, and fix things that came up, but it would have taken me so much longer to do that on my own, or I may have hired someone to make it for me.

I might need to do it better in the future, but for now it works and gets me off the ground.

Android dev of many many many years here.

Android Studio with Jetpack Compose.

I’d also suggest you try doing kotlin multiplatform. You can take your Android app and end up with a iOS app, and if you want, a desktop app. You would need a Mac for the ios app eventually, but not for the desktop apps.

There is minimal work to get it set up to start, they provide a wizard, and there are a lot of libraries available now that are multiplatform.

IOS and Desktop are both considered stable now, but the iOS beta was pretty solid.

All the apps it generates are native apps.

Even if you don’t want to do multiplatform to start, if you use kotlkn only libraries that are capable of it, you could easily switch to it in the future if you wanted to as it’d be structured properly from the start.

E.g for libraries if you use Koin instead of Dagger2/hilt you could switch to multiplatform in the future without much effort. If you chose dagger instead, it’d be a big task to switch. And if you start it as multiplatform but Android only, you’ll know which areas still need implementation work later to eventually work on iOS.

At first I thought, this isn’t toooooo terrible as making batteries to store any excess would actually be great, although there could be situations where you don’t need excess due to excess baseload already…

This is just bonkers though. Wow.

If you didn’t actually finish high castle, it just keeps getting good weirder.

There are some autonomous cars with lidar out there where the lidar is so powerful it can wreck a camera close up, but is still safe for eyes.

Switch up FaceID to use a more powerful laser which will wreck the phones camera, and start making webcams for non macs that are required to have this in them for Teams to work.

A thing would need to officially be a flop to be considered squandered like the Cybertruck is looking like.

They might have a few failures ahead of them yet though, but you can’t call a mid flight project squandered.

Edit: e.g part of that loss could be attributed to them finalizing and now starting production at the megapack factory at Shanghai. Short of Elon backlash stopping sales of their commercial batteries, that won’t be squandered and will make a billion or two or three in profits this year.

I don’t know why I thought that was going to be a different ending, where it was him going there now and seeing things and being appalled. Turns out it was his idea. Sigh.

In Canada, we just give them the money, they twiddle their thumbs for a few years then say they’re abandoning the project and keep the money. Then we wait a few years, and decide to give them more money for the same thing again.

The article doesn’t say they’ve never made a profit on any of their cars. If that’s what you got from that, you should try reading it again.

Also, if you make 1 billion in profit on something, and then spend 2 billion researching and developing and setting up a factory to build a new product, you end up with a loss of 1 billion. That does not mean your first thing is unprofitable. This is pretty basic stuff.

The vehicles are profitable, they just didn’t provide enough profit this quarter to cover their R&D and capital expenditures for growth.

Edit: Sorry, and in case it wasn’t clear, their R&D and capital expenditures dwarf the ZEV credits every quarter.
