This article covers it well, including the fact that specific battery chemistries are trade secrets.

For battery tech nerds like me, the battery is a more efficient lithium-iron battery, called Lithium Manganese Iron Phosphate or lmfp. It has a theoretical energy density of 525Wh/L, compared to normal lithium-iron theoretical density of 325Wh/L

Don’t forget to toss in some finely chopped onions

if they’re healthy

Exactly. Innumerable health issues can be worsened by excessive heat and heat injuries, like heat exhaustion or heat stroke. The reason heat is such a big deal is the capacity to get hurt just by being outdoors. Climate change absolutely plays a factor in this equation, because the subtropical states are reaching highs of well over 100 degrees. There’s no acclimating out of a heat stroke.

Individuals don’t have control over the weather. You cannot reasonably expect everyone to adjust to the same acclimation as you.

Heat in excess of 80 degrees increases everyone’s risk for heat injuries, especially for workers. The heat in the last 5 years is undeniably caused by climate change, and creates a lethal threat to outdoor workers. It’s not “just a little heat”.

Well the real answer is that they should ensure only people actively helping are next to the person until paramedics arrive.

More often they’re causing a bigger scene

There are some, but as mentioned several times, the traditional car is too heavy for solar panels to be effective. There are some vehicles that are essentially enclosed motorcycles like the Aptera where it can be effectively used, though. Aptera can use solar panels effectively because even at their largest battery capacity, it’s still significantly lighter than an EV sedan.

A title is just something a company calls a particular job. A role is what that job actually is. So a lot of jobs might be called “QA engineer”, but not fitting the intended role

I’m thinking of it not as a title, but a role. Often times the 2 are not related

That’s what QA engineering is for. They are integrated into the dev team and they pull double duty with QA and code review.

I think QA engineering needs to become more widespread. The “extra pair of eyes” can’t compare to a department of people dedicated to code review and testing.

I don’t consider myself a tankie, because I’m an anarcho-syndicalist.

I’ve been called a tankie for suggesting that workers should organize tenant unions to kill the apartment bidding wars in NYC. I’ve been called a tankie for pointing out that their image of a tankie needs to almost have power to be any kind of threat worth warning against, and there are no tankies anywhere near power with the global rise of fascism. I’ve been called a tankie for asking someone to clarify what they meant by tankie. I’ve been told that scientific socialism both is and is not tankie behavior. The term is utterly meaningless. I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s part of a 3rd red scare in an effort to sow division amongst the anticapitalist left.

Capitalism operated almost exclusively as monarchies for the first 200 years. Hundreds of capitalist countries have failed, but why are only the failed communist states counted against the ideology? Vietnam, Cuba, and China certainly haven’t failed. Now I don’t consider those to be socialist or communist projects, but they’re undeniably different from the capitalist status quo. What specifically do you mean when you say a country fails in the first place?

The horrible things we see on the news, whether through traditional or Internet consumption, are being experienced by real people. The kids starving in Gaza aren’t ai generated.

I hope it inspires them to document their oral traditions in some way on the Internet. Most likely it would be a blog, but video documentation would be invaluable preservation

I hope NASA did an inspection. I’d be terrified to fly into space on Boeing

Antidepressants aren’t a silver bullet for mental health, they only bring you closer to your (healthy) baseline. The most difficult barrier to a healthy change for mental health is our obligation to waged work, and in some cases are the cause of poor mental health.

Voyager renders it fine, but it’s so compressed that I can’t even zoom in enough to see the pieces or the arrow

Well the saying goes “if you aim for the king, you best not miss”. I think going for check or checkmate should be 3 actions, same with capturing with king. Mostly because the king would likely be in check in most situations where the king can capture
