Users with Administrator access do not have permission to enumerate directories / files inside other Admin users home directories. So any per-user files are not counted in this scenario.

I suspect that Fisker was spending a lot more per delivered vehicle than their direct competitors like Tesla, Audi, BMW, Polestar. Maybe breaking even on the car itself but having their operating costs (sales) digging a progressively bigger hole each month.

A slug about 2 inches in diameter, 1/4 inch thick, is worth about 1 USD at today's copper price (weight = 1/4 pound).
So it might almost, but not quite, work as coinage. Maybe in a very poor country populated by body-builders.
The real difficulty lies in:
1) Noise in the on-turbine wind speed and direction measurements and/or robustly (see point #2) operating LIDAR or met masts in front of the farm to try to avoid said measurement noise.
2) Actually arriving at a robust, operational in real-world conditions, fully closed-loop control system. A commercial wind farm has to operate 24/7 for 25 years without a bunch of engineers and scientists babysitting it, which is what is likely to end up happening if the cool control system relies on offline simulation results, topographical data, and/or human-supervised calibration & tuning.
It's not all doom and gloom: Ongoing improvements in sensor price/quality will probably make these kind of global control systems more and more practically feasible in the future.
In a typical real life scenario where the GPS / antenna malfunctions, your server clock will just slowly.. drift.. I.e. the crystal runs a bit too fast or a bit too slow.
Here in Denmark, at the turn of the century, I took a 'classics' class in our equivalent to high school.
A bit of Plato and Socrates, a bit of ancient Greek / Roman architecture (different types of columns?), a smidgen of archeology review.
I imagine it was some kind of condensed and simplified remnant of the broad set of classics courses that would have been compulsory in 'high school' before the democratization of secondary education here (i.e. ~50 years ago our 'high school' was mostly populated by future academics and the children of the upper-middle classes).
[] It always struck me as one of those propeller-head features that GCC & co. love but which the MS and Intel compilers avoid 'just to be on the safe side' :]
Sounds like something Dr. Sbaitso would say.. And he's a lot cheaper! :)
It's cute and retro-cool but also very Japanese, and thus almost entirely unknown in the west.
I'm no bible-thumper but I think the man from Galilee had a GOOD point or two.
I switched at work because Google thought our proxy was evil or something, then I switched at home just because, and I honestly haven't missed Google at all.
The only thing that strikes me as obviously worse (maybe?) is that Bing isn't very good at guessing what you mean when you misspell something badly.
