This seems to be the case with connected cars in general, not exclusively Chinese models. There are multiple reports of Tesla remotely disabling cars or reducing battery range, for instance. Also the fear mongering over subsidies being a violation of the rules of fair trade is laughable given that is the exact way the US car market operates too. I don’t even have the choice to buy a cheap Chinese car here in part because of government protections for domestic markets.
Speaking of not teaching things kids have to unlearn later, I’ve often wondered why we don’t just start teaching math with the expectation that you solve for “x”.
i.e. Instead of
2 + 3 =
Write
2 + 3 = x
This would prime the child to expect that math is about finding an unknown and you’ve already introduced the unknown that will be most prominent in their academic career. This will also reduce the steps necessary when teaching how to balance an equation as you no longer have the “well actually you were always solving for ‘x’ we just didn’t write it, so you didn’t know, also we’re never going to use ‘x’ for multiplication again.” stage.
But I’m not a teacher, parent, or child psychologist and this is just my blathering hypothesis based on watching my peers struggle with math for years.
Well there’s Senator Thom Tillis who was the only one who actually voted to keep Cruz’s amendment.
So that’s a registry worthy crime, right?
Can we strip people with, say, 34 felonies of their citizenship and deport them to an arbitrary country?
'Member that time France granted citizenship to someone that thwarted a terrorist attack?
Here the US be kicking out those who help.
Just watch the segment. He’s asked 3 times if he condemns the phrase which many consider to be a call to violence and 3 times he levies condemnation toward the sentiment. While he doesn’t say “yes, I condemn ‘globalize the intifada,’” he said it’s not appropriate to police speech, he’ll lead by example, he’s listening to the people of NY when drafting policies such as his significant increase in funding for anti-hate crime funding, and that his policies and the language he uses need to reflect respect for all people.
I’d argue his actual response is a much more appropriate condemnation than just saying “yes” and moving on.
Ah the Covid approach to hurricanes. If you stop looking for them they cease to exist.
You know how when you sit by a fire and the smoke comes toward you and it kinda sucks? What if the air was like that everywhere? With the power of pollution we can turn that dream into a reality!
I’ve used it to play Doomlings with some friends across the country. Pretty straightforward to set up custom cards and layouts. The UI is sparse, but has what you need.
As a virtual environment it’s unobtrusive and allows the actual game you’re trying to pay to be front of mind.
As a piece of interactive media there are some times that it lags or the physics is a bit clunky.
I’ve not used the proprietary competitors, so my comparison is just with playing the game in person. It’s free though so worth just trying it out.
It’s only trinitite if it’s from the Trinity test site. Otherwise it’s just sparkling melt glass.
Also no one around today really came from the Confederacy. It’s not anyone’s heritage. It was around 160 years ago and lasted less time than Obama’s presidency. Anyone claiming it today is just using it as a crutch for their hatred and bigotry.
Check with your local family friendly establishments like zoos or museums (or even hotels) if they have any old lost and found items they’d be willing to donate. That can be a good way to get reusable water bottles, hats, and umbrellas. Just keep in mind that many of them may have existing partnerships for this so if they refuse you can try to see if/who they work with and join forces with them.
Republicans keep killing kids :(
His grief is that in a bill that incentives building near public transit there’s not a requirement for private parking? That seems weak.
Another senator expressed concerns for the bill that sought to promote building near public transit saying that her district’s light rail went “from nowhere to nowhere.” Maybe you should advance a bill that incentives putting things near public transit?
Arrested … on investigation of charges ranging from blocking streets to resisting arrest
🙄
Idgaf. There’s already ways to see all my fucking comments, go ahead and run your precious heuristics on my vocabulary.
The only way I saw its use on Reddit was to see if someone used the n word. That seems like a waste of computational resources on a platform ultimately erected by volunteers.
Is a primary not “Democrats … [coming] together and [deciding] to support whichever candidate has the most support among them?”
