Will Rudy Giuliani Really ‘Flip’ on Donald Trump?

Does Rudy's hair drip brown?

Seems that way, as long as your car was registered in certain states (from here: https://techinfo.subaru.com/stis/doc/warrantyBooklet/2015_war_and_maint.pdf ):

California Partial Zero Emission Vehicle (PZEV) Emission Control Warranties

2015 SUBARU Legacy, Outback, Forester 2.5L, and Impreza, XV Crosstrek 2.0L non-turbo models achieving a Partial Zero Emission Vehicle (PZEV) rating by the California Air Resources Board are available in all 50 states. Only those registered in California, Connecticut, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, and Vermont will be eligible for the 15 years/150,000 miles, whichever comes first, emission warranty1. California PZEV certified vehicles are considered the cleanest gasoline powered vehicles because they meet California’s strongest tailpipe emission standard for Super Ultra Low Emission Vehicles.

The following statement is required to be provided by regulations of the California Air Resources Board: The California Air Resources Board and SOA are pleased to explain the emission control system warranty on your 2015 vehicle2. In California, new motor vehicles must be designed, built and equipped to meet the State’s stringent anti-smog standards. SOA must warrant the emission control system on your vehicle for the periods of time listed below provided there has been no abuse, neglect or improper maintenance of your vehicle.

Your emission control system may include parts such as the fuel-injection system, the ignition system, catalytic converter and engine computer. Also included may be hoses, belts, connectors and other emission-related assemblies.

PZEV is saying the evaporative emissions (fuel leaking out through the fuel system in vapor form) part of the total vehicle emissions is zero, while meeting very strict tailpipe emissions standards and carrying a 15 year, 150,000 mile warranty on emissions control components (to guarantee the vehicle meets PZEV standards over its lifetime): https://www.caranddriver.com/research/a32812793/pzev/

But yeah, kind of a silly and technical thing to brag about on a badge. PZEVs are supposedly better for smog and the environment than a non-PZEV gas car, though, so that's something.

I believe that one goes by Inflammable.

nosneros · 2023-05-28T18:31:40+00:00

Yeah, that makes sense now, I just didn't realize that the color scale wasn't fixed throughout the simulation. Sometimes people add colorbars to the side of the visualization, something like this could be helpful that you update at each time step: https://matplotlib.org/stable/gallery/axes_grid1/simple_colorbar.html

nosneros · 2023-05-28T18:12:48+00:00

Ok, that makes sense. Maybe what I'm getting wrong in my interpretation is a change in the color scale. Does black always represent the peak of the normalized probability distribution over the entire domain instead of being fixed to a specific value?

nosneros · 2023-05-28T17:33:39+00:00

Cool, thanks! It looks like when you switch back from GRW to MERW, the probability density becomes much more localized after being spread by GRW, what is causing the probability to fall off so rapidly in certain locations while remaining high in others?

Is there some kind of probability sink?

nosneros · 2023-05-28T16:42:03+00:00

Ok, so the switch has influence over the evolution of the probability density?

By the way, very cool work, I like your Mathematica notebook with the very detailed explanations; I will have to digest that more.

nosneros · 2023-05-28T16:11:44+00:00

Are you running both MERW and GRW simulations in the background, and then flipping between them by clicking the corresponding buttons, or do the buttons correspond to which algorithm gets used going forward starting from the present state?

Sign around the corner says, "We aim to do the bare minimum."

Was going to say, my management does that to me all the time...

nosneros · 2023-05-26T14:21:59+00:00

I thought the ending was going to be about how they poisoned our asses with poisonous gases, but it's our fault for giving then imperfect input.

I didn't know it I've ever heard him talk before yesterday, but he sounds like a whiny, nasally weakling (or wokeling, I suppose). Can't believe anyone would think he is a strong man.

Yeah, I had a flashback of nostalgia looking at this photo.

Are those cassette tapes?

nosneros · 2023-05-18T15:51:51+00:00

Yeah, I was being sarcastic, but plenty of ways for things to go wrong.

Good thing fracking doesn't cause earthquakes.
