The car can take 120/240 V AC input. Internally, there’s a AC to DC rectifier that brings the voltage up to the internal battery’s voltage. For 120V 15A charging, this is pretty slow in general since EV batteries have a large capacity.

I’m always vimming!

Not because I want to though. It’s because I don’t know how to stop…

While this is good news, remember that this means that prices are still increasing due to inflation, just at a slower rate now. It does NOT mean that inflation has been reversed.

Yeah, that’s fair. There’s also plenty of other things that are bad for you in similar ways, like ultra processed food. Maybe the better way is to regulate the production and trade so the harm can be reduced, like what the FDA does.

I have a mixed opinion on this. One the one hand, I don’t like drugs because of the dependence it’s builds on its users, the harmful medical effects in the long term, and how many people use it while driving or doing other dangerous tasks (for those that cause incapacitation). This isn’t just my opinion for marijuana, but for other drugs such as alcohol and tobacco.

However, I don’t want people who do use it to end up paying massive fines or ending up in jail, because ultimately they are victims. Of course, the reason this isn’t the case for alcohol and tobacco is because of its historical foundation in the US.

So I guess I’m left wondering what is an ideal solution for this problem? My best guess is to decriminalize, but also help improve resources available for treatment of addiction and education of its medical effects.

I love how this video explains the differences between the voting methods. It’s what made me prefer STAR over RCV.

Or STAR voting. Or anything but FPTP.

We’ll never know

Low IQ: it’s not a straight line

Medium IQ: it’s a geodesic on a sphere, so it is a straight line

High IQ: it’s not a straight line

Oh, it’s possible. So much so that they made a TV show out of it.

Back when I was still doing JS stuff, switching to TS was so good for the developer experience. Yeah, there’s still JS jank, and types are not validated at runtime, which was a pain in the backend (pun intended), but still I much prefer it to vanilla JS

Will this be loss?

Where does all this money go? Naively, I would think ad campaigns and campaign tours.

Lol, it took me a while to realize it’s the compiler essentially saying “how high”.

Who’s Al? Is that Al?

I did not use one, but now I’m jealous

To the person who decided I and l should look the same in fonts, I wish you a pleasant eternity in hell.

Did it get it right?

Alright, I’ll admit. Who is May?

I wrote a brief manifesto on my hatred of Python because some refactoring ended up having a comma at the end of a line, which screwed me over for about an hour until I happened to noticed it.
