It is a paradox because there’s no objective, universal definition of tolerance. It’s literally impossible to be tolerant of everything. So you’re left with different forms of what intolerance people deem acceptable.
People make the same mistake about bigotry. It’s impossible not to be a bigot. You just don’t want to be the wrong kind of bigot. Now if only we could all agree on exactly what that was.

I came across today one of my own comments on Reddit with a search on duckduckgo. It was still intact. The problem is I used shreddit to randomise and delete the entire contents of my account. My account comments and posts all show empty on my account pages on reddit so there should be nothing....
It’s not fishy (at least not intentionally so). It’s a limitation of their database. It can only show 1000 comments. So it won’t find your very old posts when you sort by them.
So they’re not restoring comments. It’s just very difficult to find your old comments to actually delete them.
No, not directly. You’d have to divert it and only irradiate it for short periods of time (30 days rather than the 18 to 24 month cycles that current plants have).
Proliferation isn’t a significant concern for reprocessing within the US. It’s primarily a concern for other non nuclear weapons countries that start it because they can then create nuclear weapons.
The US has no need to do that. They have more plutonium than they need for current weapons and it has a half life in the hundreds of thousands of years so it will last forever.
That’s not a great comparison since I’d categorize the Bolt as being fairly inefficient. It has poor aerodynamics (wrong shape and no flsf bottom) which results in a larger range loss when range matters most at interstate speeds.
The Bolt is efficient in city driving, but not otherwise. I’d say a better comparison would be between the Mach e and model Y where you do see a meaningful difference in efficiency.
I want to read a recent(ish) fun fantasy series with an eighteen year-old male protagonist, that has immense worldbuilding and greatly-written characters. Any suggestions?
That novella is a different version of one release 9 years ago. That represents the entirety of what he’s written in the last decade.
I’d say your 10% is optimistic. It’s been long enough that even if he does release it, I’d place the chances of it living up to the quality of the first 2 and giving a satisfying ending as low.
That doesn’t make it a bullshit test. It makes it a different test. IMO range is more important than efficiency.
And if DCFC stations were everywhere, then I’d agree that would be more of a factor. But given that a 15 mile difference in range can be the difference between 100 miles between stops and 200 miles between stops, I’d still say range is more important than charge speed.
Doubly so since the highest range EVs are also among the highest charging speed EVs.
As I stated, DCFC stations aren’t available everywhere. They’re often 100+ miles apart. So it doesn’t matter if you can make it 185 miles between subsequent charge stops with a comfortable buffer if your only DCFC options are at 100 miles at 200 miles. You’re stuck stopping at the 100 mile stop.
Around town DCFC are irrelevant for most EV owners since they chsgre at some.
I don’t know if that’s an honest mistake or if you’re just making up things since there are no rest stops with DCFC. It’s against the law to do that on public rest stops.
I should have made it clear I was primarily talking about the DCFC situation in the US. Europe is better off since they’re more population dense and their trips tend to be lower mileage.
Do we ever give the death penalty to someone who kills someone by accident or in an unfortunate situation?
You analogy might be relevant if the DA knew the person was innocent and intentionally framed them and/or continued to prosecute. But it’s not remotely the same to have done so and been mistaken.
The difference is that we don’t give the death penalty to somebody who accidentally does something wrong. And we especially don’t do that in such a deliberate drawn out process.
I’m not sure why you act as if all innocent people are completely innocent. It could be that they made mistakes and we’re careless and that was a part of what led them to being falsely convicted.
Literally zero incentive is an extremely high bar and certainly incorrect.
I understand wanting to ensure there’s a better incentive than currently exists, but giving them the death penalty for false death penalties is just a roundabout way of stopping the death penalty. So you may as well just do that directly.
What I mean is that take a situation where someone was convicted of murder, but the reality is that was a false conviction and they were only guilty of manslaughter.
I shouldn’t have used the “innocent person” phrasing because that’s too low resolution for this discussion. You can’t always neatly put a person into innocent/guilty categories.
Nah, if Google maps says it takes 10 hours, then it takes 10 hours with stops unless you’re in the bottom 10% of traffic (such as if you’re a truck towing a trailer).
If you’re like most people going 5 to 10 mph over, then you’ll beat Google maps time by about 15 minutes per 2 hours of drive time without stopping.
