I think the finance rate is the biggest thing here. If you can’t beat the finance rate in an investment, buy it cash.

Smaller fuel tanks and make refuelling a thing again. Boom, necessary pit stops.

Let me tell you, no disposable cup is cool. It’s creating trash no matter what material it is made of.

Mclaren strategy: Run around twitchy and slow all month and then cop some dope bolt-ons the night before. Ummm OK #donttrusttheprocess

Jesus, man. This is harrowing. Like everyone else in the comments, I’m glad things didn’t go differently.

Yes, the article definitely does not accurately characterize what seems obvious on the video.  

Just be glad they didn't say "Until the Leafs reach the second round."

This is a remarkably stupid take. 

Not really. On the Saturn 5, the first stage accelerated to a touch over 6,000 mph. I don't know the exact speed of this craft but 600 mph is a reasonable guess. They aren't deleting the stage, they are having to lift it up on a plane.

“. In this way the rocket will not need the expensive and fuel laden stages to get its cargo into orbit (below). This plane intends to serve the same purpose as SpaceX’s Falcon Heavy rockets, but ostensibly to more efficient ends.”

It does no such thing. This system heavily incentivizes companies to work and improve their emissions because if you fail you end up subsidizing other car companies that exceeded the emissions requirements. So it’s simultaneously a punishment for companies that don’t meet it and a boost for companies that exceed it.

Not really. If inefficient manufacturers pay ev manufacturers, ev manufacturers become more competitive, can sell their cars cheaper, and so sell more efficient cars.

“Of course it is possible for children, even those who are not immunocompromised, to die from complications of the measles. But not that many.”

Refutation of point 1:

Problem with the AIDS vs. Measles binary: AIDS is very hard to get and there is no vaccine, while measles is very easy to get if you are unvaccinated.

I’m all for the inalienable rights of the Constitution, but the free exercise of those rights ends when they infringe upon the inalienable rights of another.

To that end, refusal to vaccinate oneself or one’s offspring infringes upon all three of the majors—life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness—because disease…

You misspelled “racetrack”

I want it because it allows me to play games on any device without having to buy expensive dedicated hardware.
