You’re 15 years late for Europe.

Do you have any special qualifications like a doctorate in something?

Slowly but surely grown over the years but Covid probably contributed a lot in a short time.

I’m fairly sure you would not want to break them down so your body could absorb whatever is in them more easily.

About three times the usual speed on a highway.

And a highway is about three times the allowed speed of a school zone.

So roughly the same as driving highway speeds in a school zone.

I’m no expert in trafficking but I generally agree with you.

Attackers get to choose where and when to attack. Defenders get to dig in and prepare defenses.

The attacker don’t want the defender to know where and when, because then they will just reinforce that area. Defenders don’t want the attackers to know where and when they are weak (eg troop rotation)

If you’re important enough they won’t let you send letters at all.

If you’re unimportant, well anything you agreed on beforehand should be okay.

Troll grade: C-.

What kind of sensor do you suggest for measuring that? I’m genuinely curious why they are not industry standard.

My guess is price and/or robustness. The RTCs we use are cheap and durable.

There are a lot of smart engineers that design those.

If you have an external temperature measurement it helps. But it can’t see the difference between a cloudy day and a sunny day.

If you connect it to an online weather service that helps, but it’s still hard for it to know how much the sun heats your home due to big south facing windows for example.

This is something AI could be useful for. Feed it forecast, inside, outside temp and let it figure out how to balance those against each other for your home. I’m not sure there are many systems like this on the market yet.

Does leasing the land pay enough to make it worthwhile? Gives you time to think.

If it’s fertile land you should probably use it, or lease it, to grow food.

Farming is not easy. Until you learnt to be good at it you’ll put in a lot of hours into making not much money after costs have been paid.

And the one big customer who has standardized on xlsx, docx etc and use one of the two features that make the file look awful on anything not ms.

By prosecuting people/companies who does not label their AI generated content?

At work we run some software that while you can get it to run under Linux it’s not worth the effort even for me to bother.

One supplier is slowly moving towards the runtime being available on BSD at least. They also somewhat decoupled from visual studio in the latest release, while still being mandatory still it’s a step in the right direction.

And to answer the other part of the question about trust: All stock markets are risky. If you think one exchange is more risky you will not buy any stock on it until it’s cheap enough to make up for the risk.

If it’s illegal get the law enforcement involved.

Mob justice is not a good idea.

Is there any example that shows it would work in practice?

Why would they not just be a democracy if people would choose to keep them in power regardless?

There was a few millennia where kings, chieftans, emperors and the likes were more common than not before we had media. So I’d argue it’s easier to be autocrat without media.

If I buy steel for $1000 and pay 10% tariff the total cost is $1100

If I make a car out of the steel and sell it I don’t pay any tariff. But I’ll charge $100 more because my steel cost was higher. (If someone abroad buys it their government may force them to pay a tariff, but I don’t see that directly).

If I buy an engine I’ll pay the engine tariff, they don’t care if it’s made of aluminium, steel, wood or whatever. The custom officer will look at it and say that it is an engine and therefore it will be subject to engine tariffs.

It’s always the total price of the thing you pay a tariff on. If you buy a car you pay the car tariff. If you disassemble the car and ship the parts in a box the customs official may decide it’s “car parts” and you pay the tariff on “car parts” which may be higher or lower.

A minority of the population benefits from an autocracy.

And/or they will be seen as traitors to whatever comes to power after the autocrat.
