I mean, he accepted Mary Magdalene who was a literal prostitute.

BMW EV surpassed Tesla sales in Europe for July.

You sure about that?

So how do you figure there is no competition without China?

That’s not what I was saying. What I am saying is that if left unanswered, those cars would kill all of the current competitors over time and then after that we’d be at the mercy of whatever the Chinese car manufacturers would want to charge and we’d be unable to stop it.

Ugh, that is true but no way should we compromise on that IMO

Literally didn’t say any of that. I was stating how the US could be competitive.

The main problem with BYD cars is that they are heavily subsidizing by the Chinese government.

If you remove those subsidies then those cars aren’t going to be very competitive. But the problem would be that by the time the Chinese government stopped subsidies, there wouldn’t be any competition left.

Our best ways to counteract this would either be through heavy tariffs or by subsidizing our own companies in the west.

MAGA wants to do the tariffs route which is basically a bandaid solution that would prevent the Chinese companies from owning the US market but it wouldn’t do anything outside of that. Plus it doesn’t solve is being competitive, it’s just covering its ears and “lalala”’ing the issue for later generations to deal with it. Which honestly, that tracks for basically their whole platform.

If you do the subsidies route though, we’d have to make sure we’re not just constantly lining Musk’s pockets but Tesla is the company has the biggest head start. And Musk is a PoS but the devil’s credit is that our EV market wouldn’t exist without Tesla.

IMO, we need to diversify our EV makers and help provide the capital to bootstrap it. And while that’s happening we need to not let cheap Chinese cars flood the market to undercut any chance we have. So basically we need a combination of both solutions.

It seems like it used to be 35° but now it’s ~34°.

I don’t have access to the actually study but I would hypothesize that it’s likely because we are seeing more studies about things like this and as we collect more data that’s changing these values to be closer to what we see in the real world.

It’s also at 100% humidity in case that wasn’t clear.

Edit: ok so what he posted wasn’t wrong but the study said that it could be as low as that for some groups of people. For the average person it’s almost 10 degrees C higher which is lower than it used to be.

However for heat sensitive people (not sure what that means) it can be disturbingly low

His ass. This is a conspiracy theory that’s been going around for ages with dubious sources at best.

My only regret is that I have but 1 upvote to give you. This is a fantastic summary!

This is a threat to any neural network that is being constantly trained. Hell it’s even a problem with our brain’s NN. We just call it “believing your own bullshit” or “getting high on your own supply”.

The issue with NNs looking for cures or diseases (or anything that isn’t trained off of the internet) is that they are basically out of training data. They’ll need orders of magnitude more to get better and we just don’t have that. We haven’t figured out a way to get better off of less data and there’s no real movement on that front either.

What we have right now is essentially a culmination of research that has been going on since the 1960’s that was finally able to be realized with us figuring out:

• We can map our NN variables to a matrix
• We can use linear algebra to optimize the loss on that matrix
• We can leverage video cards to crunch the linear algebra
• We have the largest data set ever created in order to get our loss lower than ever before

Honestly, everyone else has it spot on with the retirement advice. Even people that are north of $10M net worth follow that same advice.

For personal day-to-day stuff I would recommend You Need A Budget.

This is a fantastic way to keep a budget.

Honestly, these are the photos that we need to be sharing. The guy is a joke and needs to be made fun of to take him down a few pegs.

I misspoke. I meant this isn’t in front of the Supreme Court currently. It might be making its way up there though.

This isn’t going to the Supreme Court. You might be thinking of this https://www.vox.com/scotus/367701/supreme-court-arizona-rnc-republicans-mi-familia-vota

If that doesn’t sum up the path that this crazy ideology leads you down I don’t know what will.

At each step they just keep doubling down 🫠

Honestly the apps on my phone that do this are amazing. I bought an adapter that adds a 1/4” and an 1/8” jack so I can listen to it through headphones and it’s beyond anything we had just a few years ago.

That was my first thought as well. I love that thing but I hate that it requires the app to run

Some filaments will clog a lot and may even destroy the nozzle. Anything with carbon fibers in it I would avoid.
