What's a skill that's taken for granted where you live, but is often missing in people moving there from abroad?

I was thinking about that when I was dropping my 6 year old off at some hobbies earlier - it’s pretty much expected to have learned how to ride a bicycle before starting school, and it massively expands the area you can go to by yourself. When she went to school by bicycle she can easily make a detour via a shop to spend some...

What do you delete yourself with in the desert? A water bottle?

Never before have a I hoped that a Wikipedia article is part of an elaborate joke.

OpenAI now tries to hide that ChatGPT was trained on copyrighted books, including J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series (www.businessinsider.com)

OpenAI now tries to hide that ChatGPT was trained on copyrighted books, including J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series::A new research paper laid out ways in which AI developers should try and avoid showing LLMs have been trained on copyrighted material.

To add to that, Harry Potter is the worst example to use here. There is no extra billion that JK Rowling needs to allow her to spend time writing more books.

Copyright was meant to encourage authors to invest in their work in the same way that patents do. If you were going to argue about the issue of lifting content from books, you should be using books that need the protection of copyright, not ones that don’t.

I would like to think that the opening time was delayed due to the Eiffel Tower guy showing up for work at 9, calling the police and then having to wait for the cops who had also just started at 9.

First U.S. nuclear reactor built from scratch in decades enters commercial operation in Georgia::ATLANTA — A new reactor at a nuclear power plant in Georgia has entered commercial operation, becoming the first new American reactor built from scratch in decades.

By my very very very rough calculations, you could build a large scale solar farm with 3x power output and have enough money left over to build a 33GWh battery. That would more than cover a continuous supply of 1GW.

Tbf that would be two dams and they did use the plural of dams, technically ‘dams’ could be a pumped storage facility.

Car companies like Honda, BMW, and Hyundai are banding together to build an EV-charging network bigger than Tesla's Supercharger empire (www.businessinsider.com)

Car companies like Honda, BMW, and Hyundai are banding together to build an EV-charging network bigger than Tesla’s Supercharger empire::Tesla has been building out its Supercharger network for over a decade. Now legacy car companies are taking a page from Elon Musk’s playbook.

AgentOrange ,

The article says they’re going to build 30,000 new chargers with two different charging standards. That’s not settling, that’s hedging.

AgentOrange ,

I guess the US is just okay with Tesla having a monopoly on EVs?

What is stopping Elon Musk having a fallout with an another car company in the future, pulling the licensing deal for the charging port and stopping their ability to produce cars?

Are all other cars in the US doomed to be 2nd tier? Why would Tesla share improvements to charging rate when it could use new versions of the charging system to sell Teslas?

How is it okay for there to be one price for electricity for Tesla owners and a higher price for non-Tesla owners?

In this case you’d be contacting yourself though.

Honestly, I’m impressed they’re selling to Australia.

That definitely seemed the like the most jank part of their production line. You’d hope they come up with a fix for that. I wouldn’t be surprised if a significant portion of their sales are DIY, so getting that right has to be pretty important.
