So was Brienne of Tarth!

I welcome the athleisure movement to men. It will make my shorts-all-the-time socially acceptable outside of brogrammer dens.

Tax credits close the immediate price point gap between ICE and EV. It’s a pretty simple mechanism, and with phaseout it should push multiple fronts: EV manufacturers to drop prices, ICE people to get out of that business.

The Metro isn’t too bad, or it was pretty functional back when I lived there a decade ago, but suburbs are gonna suburb and clog up all the lanes.

When I was there, during rush hours there was a highway that you had to be HOV3 just to use. Not a lane for that, the whole highway.

You forgot about the Washington Monument rule that restricts high rises in DC proper, so that suppresses housing density.

On the flip side, last time I visited DC was a fantastic bikeshare city, maybe the best I’ve ever been in. All the monuments around the city were shrunk down to 5-10 minute pleasant trips, no…

Why is that either/or for battery research and charging infrastructure? It’s all convergent, and the government should pursue multiple fronts.

All the electric car progress was pretty much Tesla for pure EV, and Toyota for the Prius. We’re talking about an industry where putting a plug on the side of the car by the…

Psst, did anyone tell Shilling or George that this is good for Tesla? Such a strange positive tone for the leading Tesla haters.

OMG IT’S SOOOHARD TO DO EVZZZZ! MAASSIVVVE INVESTMENT! ERMEGERD SO HARD!

You mean, the engine in the example that is 1/12th the number of parts, 1/4 or 1/3 the weight, and commodity battery parts (actually the hardest part, but not THAT hard)?

Of all the Tesla hate on this site, the fact that EV engineering is…

They just need a game or two of distraction where the road team wins, and the other team to hold serve with referee-advantaged home court.

Giannis can beat any team. He’s a guy that could theoretically score 60+ points on 100% shooting from the field in a game if he just went to the rim every time.

You laugh, but he…

Let us all know when you’ve graduated from writing Excel macros to VB.

“If you believe that Magic was key to the Lakers signing LeBron—and there’s no real reason not to, given that LeBron himself cited Magic being one of his few historical peers as a major factor in the decision”

That strikes me as pure marketing fluff to tell the less saavy or apathetic press corps. No way Lebron made…

Well, are the chickens still in the coop? Yep, the same shitty owners are there. Yep, the same shitty players. Fired the GM as a fall guy, I’m waiting for them to hire Grunfeld.

Gentry is a good coach. Not amazing, but definitely upper-third of coaches in the NBA.

The future of the franchise is known: their management sucks. The team will suck. And will probably be moved within a decade.

I watched the Timberwolves for two decades. I know. Towns will demand a trade in a few years, and he should.

If you get that level of a talent, you have about four or five years to show you can…

The writers have little material now that they passed the books. What do you expect? Even GRR hasn’t figured out how this ends yet.

poorly distributed housing is bad. you’re actually making my point

Counterpoint: Highways facilitate suburbs and suburbs are BAD.

I hope footage of all their exploits is thoroughly reviewed and punished for the most minute infraction.

There basically have a wrestling scrum under the basket for every rebound, and that goes utterly unenforced and unreviewed.

Yet a nanosecond of possible contact after an obvious poke out of bounds gets analyzed to death beyond what is possible. Basketball being a noncontact sport is a contact sport. Will every little…

Because people never drive the top speed of these things, or even drive them? Because a top speed attempt would probably cost $40,000 in tires?

0-60 is only 2.5? 

How many cars do you own? Yeah, you can probably float an EV with no charging network for daily driving.
