Nah, there’s a _very_ explicit shot of Jessica expressing shame and uncomfortableness/awkwardness as she looks at Paul, that wouldn’t normally be there between a mother and her son, who have both almost certainly seen each other naked before (certainly she’s seen him naked many times). This is the thing that people…

My take on that scene was it was supposed to call attention to Jessica transition of thinking of Paul purely as a boy/her son, someone she doesn’t need to be ashamed of nakedness or vulnerability in front of, to a man and lord of a great house, someone she does. Like, it’s fucked up on many levels of patriarchy, but I…

Even more confusing, there is already a publicly traded Porsche holdings company, Porsche SE, which is traded as POAHY. This Porsche owns 50.7% of Volkswagen AG, who in turn owns Porsche AG, the part of Porsche that actually makes the cars.

Yeah, that’s fatter even then the rear tire on a GT2 RS. Them some big meats.

C&D has the price at $95,000 to $97,000. It’s still a pretty amazing value considering you’re getting GT3 RS performance (in a straight line, closer to GT2 performance) for a GT4 price.

The Atlantic actually as a pretty decent article that talks about this more macro viewpoint. That is, that what we are seeing is the natural effects of free market economics being applied to logistics. So yeah, it’s not that the supply chain is broken in the sense that somehow capacity dropped. It’s that we’re in such…

It’s somewhat ironic that an article in theory about Intel decides to exclusively name drop products that don’t feature any Intel components in them :p

Indeed. It’s almost like the driving age in many states has nothing to do with “is this person responsible and mature enough to engage in this activity at this age” and everything to do with “at what age is someone legally allowed to start working, and thus need transportation?”

In Maine you can drive unsupervised to…

From a brand identity standpoint, in the US, sure. But at the end of the day, Acura is still Honda. And Honda is leaving F1 because the Honda brass wants to invest the money on electrification, and aligning the brand identity with electrification. If Acura takes over the branding, then Honda is not saving money to…

As the 6'6" owner of a sapphire blue 991.2 GT3, I agree with this advice. I got a 911 because it was the only thing I could both fit in comfortably and see under the rear view mirror so that I could actually see the right side of the road while driving.

As a 6'6" man who bought a 911 GT3 because he didn’t fit in the other things: I agree with this statement.

Given that most true exotics cannot fit someone over 6'2" in them, I would say no.

Yeah, they actually list the maximum height, and there are only three cars that can fit someone over 6'2" at those experiences:
* The GT-R, though that’s highly leg-length dependent, as its point of maximum leg room is not its point of maximum headroom thanks to that sweeping roofline
* The 911 GT3 (and thus any > 991.1…

As a 6'6" person: Yes, the 911 is your answer. You will not fit comfortably in any of the other options (the ones you listed, or the ones listed here. Especially that Ferrari. Those are designed for 5'10"Italians). Even if you manage to fit without your knees obstructing your steering wheel motion, or your head being…

“See these people making more than you? How dare they ask for more? You should resent them and feel sorry for us” is from the playbook of management 101, regardless of industry.

That sounds like _furlough_, not layoff. It’s an important distinction because a furloughed employee is still, well, employed, where as a laid off one isn’t. Ex: A furloughed employee isn’t eligible for unemployment (except from the special COVID adjustments when white collar salaried workers were furloughed so there…

Correct. Like the insurance risk monitors (Progressive Snapshot, etc), this system is actually measuring environmental risk, not individual driver performance (though the two may be correlated). Because Tesla wants to deploy their FSD software in situations where it will be least likely to encounter situations it…

Yes. Because the point is not to select good drivers. The point is to select low risk environments, where FSD will be less likely to be called on to handle a situation it can’t yet.

People keep confusing this kind of thing the same way they confuse what the risk monitors for insurance are evaluating.

Er, not as presented in the article it isn’t:
