I’d personally love an ev bike, but it’d be wasted on me right now. I really want an electric car because you could run the AC all night and power a computer - I want a little hotel on wheels
To be clear: we’re going to use renewable hydrogen for some things, such as fertilizer manufacturing — there isn’t any other way to do them sustainably. There are applications for which it’s one of the most expensive choices, such as home heating, and a whole host of industrial processes and aviation sitting in between.
I’m just not seeing the risk here…“oh no, we wasted our time on a green tech that we didn’t need”
This is going to take time to learn to scale up, and even if it turns out not to be useful energy-wise, it’ll still create jobs now and have alternate applications down the road
Ultimately, do they care? Most shareholders are in it for the stock price, this kind of thing might affect it slightly but I doubt it’d shift the needle much
Just pause awkwardly for a second, long enough to be felt but not long enough for them to start talking again, and bring up something unrelated
It’ll hit them with the feeling of social rejection, but without the confrontation or giving them anything to latch onto. Nothing to get offended about or argue against, there’s nothing to react to there
It might take longer, but it’s not a request to stop - it’s training them to not bring it up. It’ll make them uncomfortable to talk about it - even if they force themselves it’ll be uncomfortable for them
(Unless they’re high on the spectrum, in which case direct is better all around)
Exactly… And ultimately they are beholden to shareholders. Which are largely in it for the stock price, not the dividends - they want numbers to go up, and they don’t care if it crashes the company in a few years when they’re no longer holding the bag
Money today is worth more than money tomorrow. With enough data and analysis, riding companies into the ground is the optimal way to make money
My older brother used to make me memorize random things. When he took me to practice driving, he’d quiz me on the color and type of cars around me. He’d ask me license plates of people in the parking lot or to remember long combinations of words letters and numbers
At one point, I could glance at an SSN or credit card number and remember it for a while… I can’t do it anymore, but my passwords are great. It’s amazing what the mind can be trained to do
We also came up with this stupid super long url, I still remember it decades later but he can never get the whole thing right. One of these days I’m going to buy the domain name and put something up there, it’s almost a password in itself
How is it a half measure? Not everyone can (or should) be a symbol
You could post your legal name and other socials on here… It would do nothing to make you more convincing imo. But by that logic, not doing so is a half measure
At this point? The moment I hear the heritage foundation is involved in anything, I either think “of course they would be” or “what hidden implication am I missing?”

When lawmakers want to take a bribe, all they have to do is legalize it. Or, skip all that and go for the goal - convince executives and the courts it’s legal, because you did bribery with extra steps. It’s a totally new thing I just made up
So I’m real confused at why people hate big polyamorous relationships? Like it confuses me because isn’t the basis of being poly. Loving others and loving multiple people. Giving dedication to multiple people? Which it never specified on what type of group or how big of a group. So where does the hate of big polys come from?...
Added zip code to the reseller portal when batch-creating transactions in <main-project>
I try to start off descriptive, in case I want to diff a few changes back. After that, sometimes I write notes or general reflections on life in there… Until yesterday I thought no one was reading them
I think long messages are a good habit. Start with something readable in the history, past that who cares? Most people rarely read past the preview, and if they do they want details
I think it’s great because it makes you reflect on what the goal was and what you did. I sometimes stop to make a quick change as I’m writing, or just collect my thoughts before mentally dismissing the task
Ditto. I’m not going to put in the time to clean up a project working fine for me just to have it ignored or complained about. It’s all expectation, very little reward
And even if I did get volunteers, I’m not coordinating people on my personal projects. Sounds like a great way to take all the joy out of it…
