    You can probably also add windows to the list of complexities/costs you've already mentioned. I think it's pretty rare to have an apartment where you can't open the windows... imagine how much it...

    This is just flat out wrong. It takes more than 2 gallons of petroleum to make a gallon of gasoline. So if you're right that it takes slightly more than a gallon of petroleum to make ethanol, then it...

    I'd take a lot of this with a grain of salt, especially the residential phase. That doesn't even start construction for 5 years. It won't open until 2031 if everything goes to plan. A lot can change...

    Then don't go. Problem solved.

    I disagree that it's valuable, and I think the lower ridership supports that assertion.

    I'm all for funding public transit. I just hate that Gilbert and Co dangled their money in front of us so...

    I think there's a huge glaring issue with what is happening with the QLine. It's not a serious mode of transportation. It has way too many stops. It's super slow. It gets stuck in traffic. It doesn't...
  8. I think you have a LONG way to go before you are...

    I think you have a LONG way to go before you are acutally demonstrating that single parent families are causing workers to be lazy and not take pride in their work. For starters, you haven't actually...

    That's a big if. I bet your grandparents thought your generation was lazy. It happens to every generation.

    I'm guessing on your age... but I bet you were of one of the generations that could...

    "new production operators, hired as part-time supplemental workers, begin at $15.78 per hour...when they can make $17 per hour working in a restaurant or $18 per hour at a food warehouse."

    The...

    This article is about how in a time of abundant job opportunities, one of the lowest paying jobs you can find is attracting the lowest levels of talent. Sounds like an efficient market at work, if...

    And then you went on to write something to the effect of "it might not have been a thing in Detroit, and maybe it's not on google, but my uncle had one, so let me ridicule you for not having heard of...

    Can we get a source for this? My company is run from a home office for years and no one has ever suggested that there might be any zoning or homestead exemption issues.

    Most programming skills are learned outside the classroom. You're probably right that these boot camps don't get you 100% job ready. But if they get you interested in programming and give you some...

    I was curious about what it would look like in winter, so I found a video of the building in Milan that shows it in every season. Does it look better in summer? Yes. Is it horrid? I don't think so at...

    For many companies today [[including one that I used to work for), getting phone calls is a BAD THING. Phone calls cost money. We actually used the volume of phone calls we received as a barometer...

    I bet you would also find it economically unfeasible to build your own coal or natural gas power plant for your house. Maybe let the utility companies deploy solar? I mean that's literally what...

    I posted a graph from wikipedia that is backed up by data. And the data you posted pretty much mirrored that data. I really don't understand how you posted something showing that solar is pretty much...

    Seriously? We're posting memes now? I mean if you've got an end to end environmental impact analysis of different energy sources, that would be fascinating to see. But that ain't it.

    Also, the...

    Well sure, this is complicated stuff! But that seems to show that solar [[as long as we are talking about utility power plants not home installations) is generally cheapest, with wind and gas...

    I'm not sure we're actually spending billions of taxpayer dollars on solar... but I do know it is the single cheapest source of electricity we have.

    You know that gas pumps use electricity too, right?
  23. Rare earth metals are rare earth elements. Not...

    Rare earth metals are rare earth elements. Not sure why this matters though.

    We already have $35,000 EVs. The Bolt starts at $31k, and that's without any tax incentives.

    I'll leave it at that...

    Man, this thread is getting ridiculous. I'm not sure why you think you're the only one who is aware of China's impact on the lithium market, and that somehow all of the automakers have no idea about...

    I am going to fully admit that I didn't read your entire post because it sure seems like you're arguing against something I didn't say. Of course the car companies aren't these benevolent, altruistic...
