Sorry, I copy pasta'd the wrong article. I meant to link this one (and didn't see the news guidelines, found the ShowHN ones):

With respect to government will make more permits - historically the government has reduced the number available (and does 3% each year by design) when they weren't used due to NG/coal switching (see 2014). If this goes completely nuts, then yes, the government would likely make more but the permits are still funding renewable energy so having it go nuts also spells doom for coal powerplants. It's like having coal powerplants match your investment in utility scale renewable energy:

Big fan your handle - I used to build rocket engines for Blue Origin

True! done, thanks :)

Hi HN, I'm Evan. I was tired of traditional carbon offsets not impacting the source of carbon emissions so I started this company to enable r/WallStreetBets style pressure on coal power plants' bottom line. You won't get rich, but at least coal power plants won't either.

The login is great but I was referring to another option that just uses email rather than Facebook or Google.

I've used python, matlab, and javascript. Python certainly makes the most sense for machine learning but might be nice to also be able to learn a new language at the same time if there's another language that makes sense for machine learning.

This looks amazing, nice work. I'd love to use this without a social log-in. Seems unnecessary and you might be losing users(about 80% of our users avoid the social log-ins on our site).

Can you add time estimates for the tests and lessons so I know what I'm getting into?

Do you have plans to support tests in other languages?

Have you thought about an upgraded service to have you review students data manually? Customers might pay a premium to have a human look at it so they don't have to choose between looking at it themselves and trusting your AI.

This seems aimed at coders who have to do the implementation but the people who have to use the product are the Sketch handlers (aka designers). Is that correct?

I have yet to meet a designer that knows code. It's a very rare coder that knows design, is that your intended market?

I wanted to love the value prop here as a founder that just had our first professional design refresh. It's a great price for a lot of inspiration but too busy to use. Quirkiness impresses first but then starts to distract.

As a technical person, I've always wanted a design 101 best practices guide that could help me make better decisions on the fly. I'd definitely pay for an hour course/chapter that solved this problem and I was excited at first when I thought this was going that way!

Took a look and couldn't find an answer to the following: Is there something that differentiates this from many of the other UI kits out there? Many of which are free?

If so, would be good to clearly call that out on your website. Overall the website tells a better story as to why than most other UI kits, but it doesn't state what is different other than "ours is better than doing the colors/style yourself".

This might be a big ask: but can you tie some sort of bias rating in by tracking legislation they sponsored or supported that was tied to a stock they also traded? Maybe with some relationship on time between those events?

Cool idea: how are you planning to handle multiple view points or postings for the same job type?

If it's mostly focused at news, why doesn't it work on google's news tab?

Took a quick look: how is this different from having a notepad++ file open? What happens to the tab if chrome crashes? Are the notes saved?

fantastic. thanks! don't know why it took me so long to look for this

This site might find a better niche by growing it's own market through education. I.e. a buyer visits that wants their next car to be electric but doesn't know where or how to start.

Additional Feature Ideas: 1: Maybe add resources for new EV buyers, FAQs, etc.

2: Maybe also a Q&A for how users need to use their current car (range, seats, homeowner, renter, charging installation budget etc.) to filter for existing EV cars that would suit the majority of those needs (both listed on the site, and a database of existing cars not yet listed).

3: As with any marketplace, more listings makes it more useful so maybe could grow it by finding EV listings on other sites and encouraging them to list on your site too.

4: Don't be afraid to host new cars too if prices are high enough! Might be tough to keep all the rebates straight.

5: Add city/state combos into the location filter in case zip codes aren't known for a location that isn't yours (corner case probably).

6: Plug-in Hybrids like a Volt may also help people get involved that are nervous about dipping their toes in and likely make up the majority of the used market right now.

Nice job on the interface, slick UI builds confidence in users over some other EV focused news sites. The Elon fanclub can be intimidating and not always welcoming so this could be a huge option for less intense EV buyers.
