You can apologize AND simultaneously it can be true that such other person is also a jerk who purposefully gets offended by stupid things and takes everyone out of context for their own benefit who leads a march to cancel you.
> different kids have wildly different resources/home lives and those differences cut across racial.
One of the largest impacts on a child's outcome is if they have two parents that are involved in their lives, and even more if they are involved in their education. The classroom has little to do with parenting. There's other reasons why kids dont have two parents though.
Have insurers determined if touchscreens result in more accidents? And have premiums accounted for this?
I was told decades ago that insurance companies analyze vehicle make, models, and colors for accidents, and adjust the premiums (heard red cars were often at fault and white cars were often hit because they were missed by other drivers while merging lanes, not sure if that data is still true in 2021). Surely they also include these features into their analysis
I find that even more disingenous than OP. That first link shows the Top 15 picks of the $VTI, but IIRC the $VTI is an index of 3,000 companies across the whole market. Picking 15 heavy-weight stocks is not even the same realm as an index fund.
She weights APPLE at 18.7% while VTI weights VTI weights the top 10 holdings for a total of 23% of the portfolio.
Thanks for building this. I had not heard of it before, but it looks great Are there more tutorials elsewhere on the Internet you would recommned, besides what is in the documentation?
> Yes, they are CHARGING power plant operators who rushed to bring capacity online.
A negative cost incentivizes the operators to turn it off, no? I imagine those power plant operators can easily turn it off in an hour? 9000/31=290.3, so there is plenty of margin to break even.
The article picks on this amongst other items, but I want to know: who HAS had a successful rollout of vaccines? The US, the UK, and the EU have all failed. Is there a model state, province, or nation that has been doing 'great' at rolling out of vaccines?
> When COVID hit and we moved to work from home - a huge amount of complaints began around why cant employees expense food since they are not in the office. While most "real" people were worried about keeping their jobs or finding one, many employees were complaining about expensing their food on top of their salaries/stocks/bonuses. This entitlement continued everywhere - while Google is BY FAR the most employee centric company giving tremendous hard and soft value to its employees, they keep creating imaginary problems to complain about, instead of appreciating the hand they have been dealt.
That level of entitlement is incredible. I feel very fortunate to make a well above average salary, and I keep reminding myself that it's unusual, and that I should increase my savings for when the faucet is eventually turned off
> Even today, ERCOT is also not completely isolated from other grids — as was evident when the state imported some power from Mexico during the rolling blackouts of 2011. ERCOT has three ties to Mexico and — as an outcome of the "Midnight Connection" battle — it also has two ties to the eastern U.S. grid, though they do not trigger federal regulation for ERCOT. All can move power commercially as well as be used in emergencies, according to ERCOT spokeswoman Dottie Roark. A possible sixth interconnection project, in Rusk County, is being studied, and another ambitious proposal, called Tres Amigas, would link the three big U.S. grids together in New Mexico, though Texas' top utility regulator has shown little enthusiasm for participating.
> My idea would be to craft laws saying you can't capture any video for anything off of your property.
That's a terrible idea. That would make video taping police brutality illegal. Or what if you watched a bank robbery take place and wanted to record the getaway vehicle? Under your ideal law, any hero who catches the criminal would also be a criminal.
> It's some student's final project in design class, and has no business on the front page.
There's been worse things on the front page. The concept art is nice and well done, I enjoyed scrolling through it. But the subscription price is laughable
One of my university professors taught us this incidet, along with a number of other failures, as an ethics lesson. It shook me and I think of it whenever I see automated medical machines, self-driving cars, etc
I thought this was going to be a Clippy joke, but the truth was much more disturbing. Why is Microsoft sharing this level of information (from a corporate account) with third parties?
> Last I checked Twitter is not a state-run operation that will arrest or kill people who report information that it doesn't agree with.
This isn't Pravda, that was KGB. Pravda is a better analogy as it was a newspaper. Your comment just flamed with additional hyperbole. There's no need for that here
