Look at the Hyundais, ~300 mile range, 15 min battery charge, and they have a sedan and a cuv wagon thing. They are also some of the cheapest leases you can get, and dealers are overflowing with them. It's basically the EV wishlist, but for some reason I don't see many on the road.

You probably already know this but a level 2 charger is actually more efficient than a level 1 charger. It's counter intuitive, but the reason is that the car being powered on to accept a charge runs at around 400w, so immediately 1/5 of your draw on the level 1 charger goes to just keeping the car on. It's better to charge faster and let the car sleep longer if you can.

It would have deposited the funds in an account "foobar123" and been lost forever

*$700,000 in 2054 money. By 2054 a new car might be $150k, and 700k won't feel too bad.

Nah mobile homes are built to poor standards with poor materials, while most tiny houses are built to the same standards as a stick-built regular house. It's more like exchanging size for quality.

If your friend paid a competitive wage with the other company using the same equipment, while also providing an equal or better working environment, he would be able to retain the employees, and find an equilibrium for those moving to and from his competitor.

The only reason he would need a contractual limitation is if he was offering worse wages or a worse working environment.

Unscrew the aerator on the kitchen sink, bend the paperclip so it makes a loop that holds it tight inside of the faucet, and push it up inside the faucet. Then reinstall the aerator.

You can't metal detect it, it won't affect water flow, and it would be simple to retrieve.

We used it to heat our house growing up. But only on the very coldest nights, normally we'd use wood since the coal would actually put out too much heat. This was the 80s through early 90s in New York state, us.

Hey this is vanishingly unlikely. We don't eat many turnips in the US.

I'm in the market, and the answer is kinda, for non Teslas. I do a road trip up the east coast a few times a year and the Tesla will reliably add about 4 30 minute stops on each half of the trip. A non Tesla also requires four stops, but they could be anywhere from 20 minutes best case to 1 hr plus, depending on the availability and status of the unreliable chargers.

A lucid with 400 miles of true range would probably cut it down to two stops, but I don't have $140k

You said they don't have exposure. Exposure is everywhere in the US. I'd argue that Americans are exposed to far more Spanish than the average Italian is exposed to German. I suspect you'd find few Americans who don't know what Agua means and would be confused if someone said Adios to them.

Most US citizen, never interact with people who don’t speak English as most Americans never leave the US.

Well, except for the 68 million people inside of the US that speak another language. If you live in New York city, California, Texas, or Florida, it's damn near impossible not to be exposed to languages other than English. And statistically most of us do live in one of those places.

It's changing, but not because of the education system. 22% of Americans speak a language other than English at home, and many, many more are likely bilingual enough to speak to immigrant relatives.

It's hard to find numbers on third generation immigrants, but anecdotally seems very common for grandchildren to be able to speak to a non-english speaking grandparent. Almost 1 in 3 are either an immigrant themselves or are a child of an immigrant parent, so it stands to reason that the number having at least one grandparent to speak a language other than English is significantly higher, perhaps 40-50%.

I experienced this too, and landed at a smart company that paid me for the time I spent on the take home project. Yes, it's less money than I might earn at a more prestigious company who abused my time, but I've also successfully selected for a company that has a good working environment.

They have an engineer for probably 30% less than what I demanded from another company with a dumb hiring practice. The dumb company was willing to give me the money too, but I was annoyed with their process so I told them I would not work for them unless they put a four day work week in my offer.

Spending a few hundred a week for the two of us to eat a basic equivalent diet to that available in Europe. I brought back all my shampoo, body wash, moisturizers, etc in a 50 lb suitcase which I loaded up at carrefour on my last trip to France.

You are right about not getting Facebook to pay for the data, but each time a company pays you $2 to be referred to their site, that's $2 Facebook didn't receive. Anything you earn on TARTLE comes directly out of the purse of big tech.

Disclosure: I'm affiliated with this company.

There's a platform where you can add personal data in the form of questionnaires, documents, and integrations that pull profile data from social media, then allows you to sell the data to buyers at your discretion. The platform does not own your data, does not access it, and simply acts as a broker directly between you and the buyer. Not a ton of activity on it at the moment, but it's picking up as clients shift spending from big tech to pay users for their own acquisition.

Now that student borrowers aren't getting a "free ride", I want PPP loan recipients to be required to pay back the full amount, plus say, 9% interest, retroactively. Why should my tax dollars pay for your free business loan?

They will still ask him to invert a binary tree, just to be sure he can code
