Well, there is some data/rumours out there, stemming from a Dutch Tesla forum, that suggests that some fast charging might be beneficial for battery longevity. This seems to corroborate that. I can't remember the case for always fast charging, though.

It shouldn't be a surprise that LLM wants to get to the resolution of the plott quickly, all literature they've been fed always leads to the resolution. That it is in fact the suspension, the road to the solution, which is what keeps the story interesting isn't something an LLM can understand, because it never analyses the stories. Only what words are used.

Although Paris has already reached the milestones mentioned here and then some.

That has started to come under question, though. With vertical east-west facing panels the same effect can be achieved, although the effect might not be as drastic. That doesn't put a limit to machine height, although care must be taken to find an optimal distance between the panels.

You mean to say that Facebook isn't the main distraction of the -10s? Before Facebook it was TV that was the circus and low prices and no/hidden VAT provided the bread.

To keep Americans from leaving the country...

Vi frågade familjen vad vi ville ha och sedan delade vi upp tilllagningen mellan oss.

Well, I guess I do a bit of the same:) I do (70+2)(10+3) -> 700+210+20+6

Unfortunately i think it's the same old extortion we've seen before. Trump Jr already posted "I wouldn't want to be the last country to cut a deal", so I guess we will see more if this. Ukraine stood up against it, I hope the rest of the world does to, but I'm afraid most wount.

I don't know how we define "enough" in this scenario, but as you allude to: in the end the USA is just some 400 million people buying things from overseas. Absolutely those who buy the most, and that is what drives the economy in many countries. It is what has picked up countries in SE Asia from poverty to industrialization.

Problem is that now when everything is more expensive in the US, the same people will stop spending. They might have spent the same money on products made in America, but those are precious few and just increased in price. So in effect everyone in America can now buy less for the same money and the industry capacity to produce what's demanded doesn't exist in short term. And in real estate, short term is 3-10 years.

The rest of the world? Well, most of the world just lost their biggest market. Of course, the demand that can't be produced domestically in the US will still be seen, but at a reduced rate, which will reduce the economic development world wide, until new markers are found. China still needs to sell, but the market for the high margin stuff is reduced.

In the end? I wouldn't be surprised if this stunt reduces world trade to such a degree it might be viewed as a notable side effect that carbon use went down. Trump might have managed to stop overconsumption like nobody else and with it energy demand. So despite doing the oil industries bidding and go against renewables, the shipping industry stand to loose enough trade that it might affect oil use world wide.

Inflation is defined as the increase of prices over a set period of time. It is in itself nothing, doesn't do anything and its singular purpose is to be able to say how much something costs today compared to yesteryear. If the price difference depends on a supply chock (something that affects the ability to produce, like a shortage), or a demand chock (suddenly everbody rejects Tesla) is all the same, it results in a price change and can therefore be compared using the measure inflation.

The internet as we know it is dead, we just need a few more years to realise it. And I'm afraid that telecommunications will be going the same way, when no-one can trust that anyone is who they say anymore.
