100% this. I got MLB.tv free via T-mobile. It's not even worth the effort to figure out how to VPN out my AppleTV. I've watched 1 Mariners game this year, and it was because it was on Apple's Friday Night series.
Whaddya know, make it easy to consume content, and people consume it.

Yea, I getcha. I wonder how much repair-ability limited the design. Chunkier components is probably much easier for the common person to repair. I wouldn't want to open up my iPhone or Switch as an example, but feel like I'd be super comfortable taking apart the Deck.

Mazda tried and failed, and decided to release it anyway -- see the MX-30 EV. 100 mile estimated range for $34k.

as an alternative to Tesla, I recommend a Polestar 2. Somewhere between a 3 and a Y. Way better build quality (it's basically a Volvo, after all).

To play devil's advocate, I frequently see people throw software and automation at problems that could've been solved with a system/design change. "We make 20 of these widgets a day, they take too long to make, let's automate it!" Unfortunately the first questions aren't always "why do we make these widgets?" or "do we have to?"
Lots of out of touch leadership types automate away system design flaws IME. Rather than automating for speed or consistency.

their sweep accounts are FDIC insured up to $1m. So like mutant said, if you open an account with both, you're possibly insured up to $2m
Re:Why the conventional wisdom on how to grow muscles is wrong

Darn, I can't find it. There's a guy who claims his only form of workout is just moving a massive pile of dirt back and forth in his yard. Significant because he's a pro athlete of some sort but I forget what he does -- NFL, UFC, strongman...
One day I'll stumble upon it again and come back here and share. Just thought it was funny to compare it to shoveling dirt when that's actually what an elite athlete does somewhere out in the world lol

Re:Realistic daily range of an electric vehicle: 50% of EPA range

Personally I've never run into this but -- a long queue would be fine, the car doesn't eat up much electricity idling. As for charger status, I mostly use the Electrify America app for finding a charging station (i get 2 years free with my car) and it's good for showing charger count and availability. So, if a charger was out of commission, it would just show 3/4 available.
Google maps will actually show similar availability of various other company stations.

> A lean Montrealer, with a gentle yet poised intensity that one might classify as medium-energy, Picard came at the question of vim and vigor from a near-cosmic vantage. His office, high above the Heights, had a commanding view down the Hudson, a receding sun-blanched shorescape of skyscrapers and tidal swirl that lent his pronouncements an oracular air.

Re:My indoor rowing tips after 15M meters

Depends on your goals. I personally prefer weight-lifting and think it's a bit easier to do when I'm low energy/don't feel like doing it. But thankfully is easy to snowball and keep up the momentum because the progress is quite obvious (looking better, feeling better, slapping more plates on the bar).

ugh, just remembered that this was kinda used against me as an internal candidate. I read about the new law and decided to exercise my rights. Turns out senior leadership in my department thought I might sue based and saw it as info gathering for that...

Not sure about other states, but in WA you can legally request the range once offered a position -- applies to applicants within and without.
