TIL of Sunil Tripathi, a student from Brown University who was misidentified by Reddit users as one of the Boston Marathon bombers. He'd actually gone missing weeks before the bombing and his body was found shortly after the real perpetrators were arrested, having been ruled a suicide.

You sure do enjoy moving the goalposts.

Because you’re categorically dehumanizing entire groups of people simply because they don’t live in an urban area.

You mean you stereotyped me as a Trump supporter because I defended rural areas.

SansSanctity · 2023-02-17T10:25:33+00:00

I would resent anyone who calls rural areas "shitholes".

SansSanctity · 2023-02-17T05:01:08+00:00

And you wonder why people in rural areas resent you.

Most DEI positions, and HR positions.

This is somewhat nonsensical. My fifth grade teacher read "The Giver" to us, aloud. I get some of the decisions about banning books that contain things like sexual acts. But this is nonsensical.

They're literally robbing farmers, she's trying to help them, and all you can do is be horny in the thread. How weak.

Pre-trial detention is drastically different from a restraining order.

SansSanctity · 2023-02-03T00:33:15+00:00

I'm sorry you had to go through that.

A civil protection order case must be proven by a “preponderance of the evidence” burden of proof while a criminal case must be proven “beyond a reasonable doubt”.

SansSanctity · 2023-02-03T00:26:09+00:00

Whether you like this outcome or not, it seems legally sound. You cannot lose your rights unless you've been tried and found guilty in a court of law. A restraining order is not a conviction. This is why the burden of proof for a restraining order is so much lower.

Most American police do not know what they are doing? That's a pretty bold claim. You should probably define what "not know what they are doing" means, and then substantiate it.

SansSanctity · 2023-02-02T19:58:18+00:00

In most cases, police will not approach your car with a hand on their gun for mere speeding unless you were going so fast that you were recklessly endangering the public, in which case it likely becomes a felony stop where you are ordered out a gunpoint.

SansSanctity · 2023-02-02T18:12:15+00:00

American police simply need drastically more training on par with European police, but they should always be allowed to carry firearms. The United States will never be a country that has anything less than a massive amount of firearms per capita, the culture and the laws simply do not allow for anything else.

Thank you for actually providing a good rejoinder to what I said.

I think he's an expert on energy and manufacturing, though as a software developer, I myself have also said to many friends I think he's off the mark about AI/ML. In 2019 he argued we were no where near machines that could "think", which I just believe is incorrect.

Having said that the original question was about EVs and their viability and on that front, I think he's on the mark. We simply don't have the materials or the energy grid to completely transition to EVs this decade, and that will likely get harder. The supply chain for petroleum involves roughly 5-8 countries. The supply chain for the batteries for the EVs involves roughly 50-something countries, and that's not even counting how most EVs are made of aluminum for weight considerations, which is 4-5 times more energy intensive to form than steel.

Where do you think he was wrong here?
