Engineers are much the same. If you look on that site, under engineers it lists every single bullet point from agriculture workers except for the 3 hour rule.

However, despite not being entitled to it, it is typical to expect. It's just wild to not be legally entitled to it.

/s?

There was a plan to add one, just really late in the future.

At least, before it was cancelled.

1 MWh/mo is not out of the ordinary for an American home. The average is 0.87 MWh/mo. Inefficient appliances, bigger houses, and poor insulation are big factors. Of course, that's America, not China.

Am I weird for drinking neither? If you're not used to drinking them, you have to add so much to them to make them taste good, and I just never got into it.

Very occasionally I drink pop, so that and chocolate (a lot of chocolate) are where my caffeine consumption comes from, but the caffeine isn't the point.

Sandy Loam??? WHO IS SHE

Deflation is really really bad. On a societal level, if people expect prices to fall, they will withhold spending today in favour of tomorrow. This decreases demand, decreasing prices, accelerating deflation until collapse.

That's it, it's horny jail for you. This is an abnormal amount of horny.

Quebec swear words are almost all Catholicism-derived. The Tabernacle, the Host, the Chalice, the Virgin, etc.

The problem with UBI is it won't come without the power of the people forcing it. And then when that dies down it can just as easily be taken away. If you've got a mass movement with that power, why would stop at a bandaid?

Of course, that would never change in the face of changing financial incentives. The world as it is is the world as it ought to be.

I had one professor who could tell almost any calculator model from 30 feet away. Other than him I never had any professor care about the specific model of calculator during an examination.

It's not so much the force that is important, regardless of if it's normalized for body size, it's the pressure that does damage. psi (or Pa in SI) is the appropriate unit.

We needed to get this shit done 10 years ago. Any delay in removing all fossil fuel emissions now is just a matter of how bad we want climate change to get, rather than preventing it. Net zero by 2050 is a fucking eternity away and is a shit goal, and all the projections that get us on track to 1.5 °C of warming have us extensively using carbon capture which is entirely unrealistic.

Existing nuclear plants in France work, they can load follow to some degree, and renewables can make up the difference with minimal energy storage. But at a certain point you have to stop investing in renewables if you have minimal energy storage and your electricity solution is working.

I am going to emphasize that last part: IF you can't get enough energy storage, and IF your energy mix is fine, you must stop investment in renewable installations. Without enough storage, the baseload+peak paradigm works, you just have to regulate it.

France's nuclear plants load-follow to some degree, so it's not just fossil fuels.

Just in case you confuse him for all the other heads of state named Putin. There's hundreds of em /s

The logical structure doesn't hold. People don't eat meat for profit, they eat it for preference. You can't ask slave owners to be slightly less profit-seeking. You can ask people to tolerate small sacrifices like eating less meat.

Whatever the case, individual solutions to structural problems are not and have never worked, it's a capitalist lie. I intentionally said "ask people to tolerate small sacrifices" instead of "make small sacrifices". A reduction in meat consumption has to be imposed, whether at the distributor or the supplier.

It is the quadratic formula. It already is the solution. The problem is any quadratic of the form ax²+bx+c=0
