Dude. Did you read the summary? The latency is so low that packets arrive before they're even sent! Seriously, what's it going to take to impress you if violating causality isn't enough???

You can't have a latency decrease of more than 100% (at which point latency would be zero).

And in many places, if you dont answer/aren't home/whatever, they can just tape the papers to the front door and their job counts as done. There is usually no need for personal interaction.

These people virtually always show up with police accompanying them anyway.

Using a computer to systematically generate every possibility could work for patents, but not for copyrights. Different laws apply.

The law is clear that anything that is published can be prior art for rejecting/invalidating a patent claim, regardless of the author.

Yes, a private residential building would require all that if it was a multi-unit apartment or condo building with the same number of units as the hotel. Conversely, a hotel would not be required to have all that if it was a small building equivalent to a single-family house with only a few guest rooms (like a Bed and Breakfast in a converted house). The only possible exception would be having the fire evacuation map posted on the inside of the doors, but that didn't apply to the hotel where I worked because our rooms all had doors that opened directly to the outside and the evacuation maps were only required if the rooms opened to an interior hallway. In any case, although we did our best to comply with code, we were never "inspected" by anyone other than the city codes inspector who signed off on it when we had the roof replaced (which, again, would be required of any building).

The newest V3 Tesla Supercharger stations charge at 250 kw per car with a single cable. 1 MW doesn't seem so hard to imagine...

No one is suggesting replacing a long-haul 747 with an electric airplane. But there are plenty of short-haul puddle jumpers that take off with 40% fuel, fly 40 or 50 miles, and land with 32% fuel. For those sorts of flights, electric could be far more economical.

I used to work at a hotel. I don't know how things are everywhere, but in my city there weren't any special fire or safety regulations that didn't apply to every other house and business. There certainly wasn't such a thing as a "hotel inspector." You might get inspected by the fire martial, but that's true of any building (did you know that fire maetials have the authority to inspect residential houses if they want to?). If you are imagining that hotels are held to some higher standard or inspected more often than any other building, you are mistaken.

Anyone who writes headlines in the form of "Uninformative short statement. Another uninformative short statement." should be sent to a work camp.

There's also the problem that some of the qanon stuff is so wacky and irrational that it practically defies debunking. Take pizzagate; they decided that some totally innocuous emails were "clearly" coded references to unrelated things, based on nothing. How do you debunk something like that?

The last time I went to a local indie bookstore intending to buy a book, it was $50 vs $27 on Amazon. I want to support local stores and am willing to pay somewhat more, but come on! Almost double???

The huge Barnes & Noble near my house has a large "local" section that has more local stuff than most indie bookstores. It's a very small percentage of their shelf space, but they have so much shelf space that even a small percentage of it still ends up being a ton of stuff.

No, parent poster made the strained analogy that it was like a store charging just to get in. But there are indeed businesses that charge just to get in. Ever buy a book? Did you know exactly what was in the book before you paid, or did you have to pay just for the chance to see the content? Did you have any guarantee that you would like the book, or were you taking a chance that the content would be worth the price?
