That last one isn’t bad advice, but it is a little misleading. There are plenty of 20 amp receptacles in anybody’s house. You can tell them apart from 15 amp receptacles by that extra horizontal part of the neutral plug that nobody’s every used. (It’s for a NEMA 5-20 plug, and if you are going to run a 20 amp…

Was expecting FTX to be on this list...

You know an organization which has been on the forefront of fighting pretextual traffic stops, policing for profit, and civil asset forfeiture for years?

That... was a very well crafted post. Thank you.

This would take so much away from F1 that I don't think I'd watch anymore. 

Well, those are some great n=1 statistics for ya. Don't worry about all the other cities which have adopted VZ and seen the exact opposite results.

Anything that prevents Redflex from getting paid is fine by me.

Yes, it’s extremely frustrating, and drivers need to be trained to keep right except to pass. But this is such a wasted opportunity in automated vehicles. Only Lexus has come up with the proper solution (check the publication date).

Jalopnik has already done an excellent job of showing how those driver-attention-monitoring systems can be defeated.

We can call it “the Segway effect” or “Kamening.”

Smugness.

This may sound pedantic but it’s really important: “Science” doesn’t know anything. Science is a process that allows people to figure things out to the best of our abilities - which themselves are ever-improving thanks to rigorous scientific investigation.

Yeah, came here to post that the traveling salesman one is particularly poorly phrased. What it should say is, “we don’t know how to train computers to solve the traveling salesman problem efficiently.”

Speed humps are an ineffective band-aid approach to a problem that in most cases simply does not exist but is rather an invention of overanxious neighbors or of speed limits set too low statutorily.

So your only arguments are that some of my stated positions align with those of a larger group (fallacy of guilt by association), that I use the modern definition of a word instead of adhering strictly to its etymology (pedantry), and that you like to call people names (ad hominem)?

I mean, I’m absolutely amazed that Marin County, home of the anti-vax movement, went so all-in on COVID vaccines. They got to 90% in no time flat.

Wanted to bait with a misuse of "begging the question" but thought this was funnier.

While you’re defining things for me, would you look up “ad hominem?”

Do you really trust technology that much to be infallible? Why should everyone in the US have this fallible, breakable device in their cars? What are the resource use implications?
