It's probably a good idea to put solar panels on car parks where we're going to have car parks anyway, though. In addition to agrivoltaics and using, as you say, substandard land for large scale solar. Also put it on roofs. Basically anywhere it doesn't do any harm, I say.

Does this study account for the obvious: poor people eat more UPFs and are more depressed?

Did the study do anything to account for alternative causes? It seems immediately obvious to me that economic status could influence both weed use and academic achievement.

IIRC, third cousin is pretty close, n times removed is just generation gap. I mean it makes little difference, genetically, but being that close to a royal within written history is probably a good indication of generational wealth.

People who believe (because they've been lead to believe) that driverless cars are safe still have a right to live without injury. Being credulous or fooled doesn't remove your rights.

IIRC, their existing stuff is a white labelled mullvad, which is based in Sweden and, as far as I know, generally considered a good or even the best VPN for privacy.

Full-contrast black-on-white is also a common eye strain and/or migraine trigger.

I don't like that this is an ad. Really undercuts the seriousness of the message.

This is Tesla sales, not EV sales. It strikes me as indicative of people finally deciding that they aren't willing to give money to a company whose public face is Musk.

In my experience they've significantly tailed off over the past year, exponential growth would mean the amount they get better per unit time increases over time. What has gotten better is our ability to run the same level of things on cheaper hardware with less power, again just in my limited experience. (Also this is not the definition of exponential growth, just a property of it. Polynomial growth has the same property)
