As far as I know they aren't learning in realtime, but they are still learning systems. I sure hope they are at least trying to failsafe around it as well, but clearly they are not doing a great job if they are. I admit I'm making some assumptions based on a combination of what they've said and how it's going, but I think they are reasonable.
If you DIY'd this you'd probably have half the hardware since it seems like many of even the most inexpensive grid tie inverter/chargers have a solar controller in them. I got a very inexpensive device with a 3600W 120V inverter which also does battery charging (~24V lithium, flooded, or whatever with a custom profile) and it has grid tie with boost. It doesn't do any of the intelligent stuff that would allow you to participate in a VPP, but it does have external control so that could be retrofit even onto it.
Solar panels are so crazy cheap now (especially used) that unless you have really absolutely nowhere to put them, they could potentially save you money even in non-ideal conditions. Grid-only inverters are very cheap up to a few hundred watts. If you have a core backup system with an inverter that works without the grid, they can make a contribution when you're using that as well. I somewhat recently got two high quality used 275W panels for $100, and I regularly see them cheaper if you'll take them in volume. We got our REC TwinPeak 2 panels for $0.44/watt, but it's harder to find top quality at those prices now because of you know what.
The Waymo vehicle knows zero of the traffic laws. It's just doing what it looks like it has done before. It doesn't understand anything including what it did before, so it can't do a sanity check. Sanity isn't even a concept which applies.
Drivers are really expensive. They cost more than the vehicle in short order if it's a car, but also over the lifetime of the vehicle even if it's a bus.
I actually think the ideal thing would be a casino plus a fast food restaurant but barring that I would suggest mimicking a truck stop (except for what goes on in the parking lot... and hopefully, the bathrooms.)
I gave those bitches some pretexts. Bitches love pretexts.
At least Soviet manufacturing turned out some spectacular trucks.
All Microsoft software is brittle. I use Windows 11 and 365 for work. Sometimes the ribbon just stops drawing correctly, especially in Excel but also sometimes in Word. If you lose network connection while editing files on a share for more than a moment (I presume the usual timeout value) then all the Office applications get bitchy about it. Word forces you to save to a new filename. Excel makes you confirm you want to overwrite. Teams blows up regularly and is slow at best. They did a tolerably good job with the chat part, but everything else is fragile.
As far as what's best to use, I find LO Writer to be approximately as bad as modern Word. Neither one is particularly friendly. Peak Word was 5.1 for Macintosh, which didn't try to be a full-fledged DTP suite. It was just a nice word processor that ran on almost no machine. It's all downhill from there.
What Microsoft really needs to do is start over from scratch with some of their products. They can afford to do it. They have the negative examples to learn from.
The question is, will they come all the way to the realization that the only thing you can potentially trust someone else's computer with is your encrypted data? Or will they just put their faith in other clouds which, when compromised, release the data of many parties at once?
That was really a quite gentle correction for these environs.
Taking the time to make it humorous makes it A+
Indeed. One could even argue that maybe the increased mileage and reduced emissions, which are forced on them via regulation, don't actually reflect the values of car buyers many of whom seem to have other priorities.
True. There's no shortage of dumbfucks out there who don't care about other people or even themselves. Imagine being against reduced carcinogenic and global warming emissions, what a fucknut you'd have to be.
To call someone a murderer. you have to have proof he has murdered someone.
No, to call someone a murderer, I must believe he has murdered someone.
He could sue me for slander of course, but then we'd get into discovery.
Kind of like how chief pedo hasn't sued anyone for slander or libel for saying he's a child rapist.
Are we talking about the same democratic party that always votes for more bombs to be dropped on children? The same one that helped create the DHS and kept voting to expand funding for ICE? Fuck them and you.
The pedo protectors are here to make the world safe for child-raping billionaires by modding down facts
The claim is that the increase in lift provides more benefit than the increase in drag takes away. If they are keeping their legs close together in the part where drag is a detriment (while accelerating) and then spreading out while in the air then this makes sense, and in fact that's what they do normally.
Heisengberg might have been here.
