One especially hard thing for sentencing public policy is when every crime is compared to every other crime.
It is impossible, I think, to come up with a "ranking" of crimes that everyone can agree on. And because that's impossible, anyone can always point to a sentence of someone else who received too little or too much in comparison.
I understand the desire to scale sentences by impact. But, I personally think it would be reasonable to give SBF the same exact sentence even if he had defrauded people out of twice as much or half as much money.
It does fix that because I dont have to look at it while I wait the 2 seconds. On a touch screen my finger will be slipping as the car is moving and have to constantly divert my eyes as I wait for the lag - even if its the same lag as a physical button.

I honestly didnt know they are still shipping. Their numbers are very small (under 50 a quarter) which admittedly makes me feel like the rest of that post has some elements of bias/screed to it. Is it really a logical alternative to buy an EV truck from a bespoke manufacturer known for (criminally proven) fraud?
