Thanks for the info. I hope you told PG&E not to kill people, if we’re all giving each other advice :-)

You’d just need to tell the car, "make sure I'm charged up by 7AM tomorrow" and it would optimize charging for grid reliability and your own cost.

It’s the difference between “TO limit power use between 4 and 9 PM” and “limit power use TO between 4 and 9 PM.” Easy mistake to make.

I’m pretty sure you mean NOT to charge between 4 and 9 PM. That’s when our power is most expensive and dirtiest relative to demand. Waiting until after 9 means getting out of the peak.

Exactly! I don’t want to push this all onto capitalism writ large (it’s a decent way of allocating certain resources within strict limits), but this whole notion of shareholder/management capitalism which really took off with Neutron Jack is bringing us to a perilous point.

OK, this is probably just a problem with Vox not bothering to translate the PDF (it is in German...), but a 3% decrease in car trips is much different from a 3% decrease in congestion.

Also like creating a huge rental housing shortage where one in every ten rentable units is illegally off-market.

Or, to keep the theme, provincial?

Was this a member of government or a professional hockey player?

3.5.

Ok, so I’m doing the thing of commenting before listening, but:

Geologically? Do we have drivers from the mantle playing?

Bott’s dots are not reflective. The reflectors aren’t round.

Well, this can be summarized as follows:

We should probably subsidize car ownership, then. Make it cheaper if it’s the better option for people.

It’s because a lot of public transit advocates aren’t really advocating for public transit in a vacuum - they’re advocating for urbanism writ large and see the personal car as the enemy of dense cities.

Legalize the California stop!

Correct conclusion. HSR is too slow to serve anything but a few city pairs, which means it will always be politically unpopular (too few beneficiaries) and expensive (no economies of scale).

How could you possibly know if Indycar drivers could make it in F1? Like, seriously, what evidence of any kind do you have?

I mean, Newgarden essentially used Grosjean to make the turn.
