  • BYD has a factory in California where they make electric buses and commercial trucks.

  • I think ebike, scooter, etc. usage will increase even more if we mod infrastructure to be safer for everyone.

  • A lot of Brazil is in the tropics, so no, not winter kinda latitudes.

    But Brazil also extends to something like 33° South, where winter starts in June.

  • Someone should look at how much porn downloading and streaming bumps up when government employees are furloughed and have idle hands.

    Maybe the evangelicals can be swayed to avoid a government shutdown with that kind of consequence.

  • Off the ravine or into it?

    We've been in the ravine for a while I guess.

  • Is porn intake measured in sieverts or mW/cm² or what?

    What level is considered safe?

    Asking for a friend.

  • I guess for each rep it comes down to whether they think the folks in their district will be upset more because they let the government grind to a halt or they colluded with Democrats.

    I'm worried that in many districts, voters are so polarized that they would see working across the aisle as heresy. It's the same reason Jordan got 190ish votes publicly, but only 86 in a secret ballot.

  • I didn't read it, but my first thought was they trained it to associate speech patterns with wealth and/or education, which correlates with diabetes for all the usually reasons in the US health non-care system.

    Edit: I'm probably wrong:

    The scientists analysed more than 18,000 recordings and 14 acoustic features for differences between those who had diabetes and those who did not.

    They looked at a number of vocal features, like changes in pitch and intensity that cannot be perceived by the human ear.

  • I'm going to go look for an update on DeepSqueak...

  • Someone here is seeing this xkcd for the first time just now...

  • I think most computer vision cameras are fairly low resolution, so I'm not expecting the hit-and-run vehicle will be identified.

  • Maybe make the fines scale with the mass instead of linear size.

  • "Hi!" the automation greeted the man on the sidewalk. "You are being recorded!"

  • Wait comma did you dictate this comment?

  • Please join the livestream comments for deep insights and civil discourse.

  • If there was only some governing entity that would prioritize the good of the whole community instead of selfish interests.
