For sure games since they offer a lot of replayability. Maybe some reaading materials since they also don't occupy a lot of space.

Worst thing for him to say after that. Makes it sound like he was wrong, and thought he could get away with it. It wasn't a flawless debate from his side, but still better than Trump's trainwreck with Kamala. I'm hoping they have another debate.

NPR did a podcast on those "bumpers" (there's a term that I don't recall). HBO wanted to change theirs for the reason you indicated as well as the fact that it was rather long compared to Netflix's and others. They paid a lot of money to develop others and also do testing\ polling with end users. The original beat out all the rest because it's been their bumper for so long.

Nah it would. I've spoken to a lot of Republicans that don't like trump a lot, but feel he best aligns with what they would like the government to do. Giving them a saner option would probably siphon off votes from trump

Is that white man in those pictures Harris's father?

Bro for real, I need some examples of in which ways are things politically and the general state of things worse. There may be some things that have slightly regressed, but I can only think of 1. In almost all ways things have bettered since the 40s.

  • Not everyone has the budget to openly spend 20K plus on a new vehicle, which means lower demand
  • Since not everyone will just buy a new car, companies need to make as much money per unit sold which means luxury cars make more sense These points together should make sense. They are marketing to people that have a lot of disposable income. If they have a lot of disposable income, they probably want a luxurious car. People with 200k+ annual salaries want to keep up with the Johnses so a 20k EV car they can easily afford doesn't look as cool compared to their neighbor's 80k+ car. So they want a 80k+ car with all the bells and whistles.

The reason we stop China is not related to supply and demand so much as stopping companies that China has given unfair advantages to. If BYD was making cars without signifcant Chinese subsidies, then yes I would be bothered by these tariffs as well.

Yeah this is great information I appreciate it!

Thanks I appreciate the advice. I'll look into those questions you've asked as some I can't answer confidently. The first 3 are more or less questions I have been asked in interviews.

I mean the tech is still new as well as the point that SSJMarx mentioned. To add to the list of reasons to make expensive version of cars first:

  • New tech is more expensive usually
  • Not everyone has the budget to openly spend 20K plus on a new vehicle, which means lower demand
  • Since not everyone will just buy a new car, companies need to make as much money per unit sold which means luxury cars make more sense
  • additionally lowering demand is the fact that not everyone wants an EV or feels comfortable driving them (due to its different fueling method)

I do expect that over time manufactures will begin to release cheaper EVs over time that are aimed for average consumers.

 

I’m doing interviews for companies that would involve API integrations. I’ve done a couple now where I was given some general API information (some intentionally unclear, some more clear) and I felt I didn’t do well. Mainly I was nervous, and felt very pressured just to understand how the different parts of the APIs interact with each other and should be interacted with. This is despite doing this for work and myself not feeling as nervous doing more common coding tests which I don’t do as much at work(thanks to doing examples on hackerrank, Leetcode helping me feel more comfortable).

So what are the resources I should leverage to practice API integrations? How should I go about practicing? Especially considering that I do need to perform in a certain way during interviews.

Having a unique issue where steam is not logging in for me. Its stuck on the logging pop up and stays like that. Is anybody else having this issue? I'm on Ubuntu, it was just working about 10 hours ago. I made and reverted a change thinking that's what caused it but that doesn't seem to be the case.

I had to run steam through terminal using the command: steam -tcp and got it to work.

 

I was a bit pessimistic about this being possible, but to see that we did this in the 1984 Olympics without any light rail is pretty amazing to hear.

I literally can't find anything. I have no idea where to look. On the dota client, I can only find stream from as recently as... TI3. I can't see any other competitions showing up. I don't see anything on youtube either that ALSO is a full match. NoobfromUA has matches, but they jump around.

So my question is, where do I find streams with commentary? The reason is because ideally they'll go into the reason players are making certain decisions.

 

This is amazing news. I'm hoping we continue to get more news like this in the comings months and years.

 

Interesting article that talks about the similarities between now and 1938, and the sort of lessons we can learn from history.
