It could be owned by, like, multiple people? Also, a lot of companies in the world, and especially the ones managing costly infrastructure assets, are owned by states (which are a form of “multiple people”).

No, the Troika changed it when Germany took control of Greece 10 years ago.

Unless you plan to retire very early, you should try to learn guitar long before retirement. Learning something, especially music, is much harder when you get older.

I believe they took this into account when they designed the thing.

For trains and subways, you can build the stations slightly above the rest of the tracks so that a train will naturally break when reaching the station, and accelerate when leaving. Efficiently storing energy in potential gravitational form. I’m not sure how frequently this is done, but at least in my city the subway does this at most stations.

Good thing it happened in Japan. Here people would have burned with the plane arguing over who gets to get out first.

It also checks periodically that you’re in control of the wheel, or else will disengage.

Disengaging autopilot when it detects you are not in control of the wheel sounds a bit dangerous.

Depending on where you live, you might find them in a university library.

OP might also be interested in the reverse operation. If s is your number from 0 to 1, the corresponding position in the “real” space is min + s * (max-min), which can also be written as (1-s)min + smax . This is sometimes called a linear interpolation, or a weighted average. Note that you can also use the same formulas with s smaller than zero and larger than one, thus performing linear extrapolation. Finally, these same formulas apply in higher dimensions, just think of min and max as the coordinates of two vectors, and appy these formulas for each coordinate, and you get linear interpolation between your two vectors.

He didn’t need to buy them off, they’re all neoliberal shitheads, they’d lick his ass for free.

Except when it’s very cold outside, which is what was discussed here. Heat pumps are great (have one in my home), but it might not be ideal in very cold areas, especially if electricity prices are high compared to other energy sources.

I have two kids and use a bike (for ecological reasons). I realize I’m incredibly lucky my area has very good and safe biking infrastructure. Had to upgrade to a electric cargo bike when the second one came about, but I don’t regret at all, it’s more’confortable and safer for the kids. I do own an old ICE car, which I considered replacing with a new EV, but since I drive maybe a few hundreds of kilometers per year, I figured it’d make more sense to keep the old diesel than to replace it.

Turns out there is another trial in France right now, for pretty much the same thing, concerning the centrist party. Left-wing parties have had similar practices too. As much as I hate Marine, this was and is still a very general behaviour of all political parties to misuse available funds for their benefits.

Black market cigarettes is a very real thing actually.

I don’t think cars are cheaper.

I considered it seriously even though I am fertile. The process is so complex, long and uncertain in my country (western Europe) that we chose to make new ones. Still considering to adopt when we get a bit older.

Suddenly going down seems to be a constant in my self hosted services though…
