Good thing they stopped emptying train toilets on the tracks.

Where’s the fun in that?
All those terrible stories during the cold snap. Hopefully, a thing in the past.
Ed is getting good at lobbing these darts at hype bubbles.
The thing that this writeup ignores is that the object isn’t to show short-term revenue, but to put all competitors out of business, be the last one standing, and create a monopoly. Either that or get bought out so the investors can move on to the next thing. But at $150B valuation, only MSFT or Nvidia can afford to buy them outright.
Google, Meta, and Amazon burned through cash for years, but they eventually outran all competition and then monetized the users who had nowhere else to go.
Dangit, copy-pasta from an unrelated comment. Fixed.

If you use github pages, you can create, deploy, and host static websites for free. Only cost, if you want your own URL, is for a custom DNS name.
You can use their default Jekyll static rendering engine, and create the content using Markdown. And with github actions, all you need to update the content is create markdown, then push the change to the same repo. After a few minutes, the new content shows up.
Hugo can also be used, but it takes a few extra steps: https://gohugo.io/hosting-and-deployment/hosting-on-github/
You can also find ‘themes’ to customize the look and feel of the site, specific to the site generation tool.
If you want a lot of extra features, Docusaurus is pretty much as good as it gets, and you can set it up to push out to GH pages: https://docusaurus.io/docs/deployment
My favorite tell is when a write-up starts with a verbose explanation of given knowledge on a subject. Yes, we all know what ‘World Wide Web’ and ‘Internal Combustion Engines’ are.
Get to the f’ing point.
So many $$$$$$$$$$$$$, no doubt, for a single record in a database.
They’re just trying to learn his dance moves.
Don’t believe in ‘retirement.’ Already have plans to transition into full-time writing.
Last time, it didn’t go so well for the robot:

The problem with Chinese EVs is that they show it’s possible to innovate, keep prices down, and mass produce.
Ford, GM, even Tesla, are spending all their time whining about how it’s just not possible to compete. They point the finger at worker wages, instead of improving engineering and design, materials, manufacturing processes, and not chasing stock-market gains.
Stop making $70K SUVs and start making $20K Taurus and Escort EVs. You did it once. You can do it again.
Thanks! Looks like lots of options out there.
Our power panel is old and we’ve been advised it may need replacing. I briefly looked at Span panels, with built-in energy monitoring, but they’re not cheap. These monitors look like you at least get the data at a much more reasonable price.
How did you get the breakdown? We have a really old panel and may be looking at getting a new one in the next year. Would love to be able to see the breakdowns and figure out where it’s going. FWIW, in PG&E territory.
Anyone who has played the ‘Risk’ board game has an idea what the next moves should be.
I had the same issue, but my wife loved it. We have agreed to disagree.
