Veritasium has made high production value drivel for years. The flashiness he insists on is deeply annoying and I kind of find his personality off putting lately. He wasn’t so smug back when he first started and I used to love him

I wish. They’re expensive af. They are intended as a car replacement for local driving and are priced as such

Everyone out here using a dice calculator, but can someone answer

  1. Given a value x in (0,1) is there a set of dice and AC such that sum(roll{n_iDv_i}) > AC has probability x?
  2. Is there a sequence of finite set of dice and sequence of some AC for which we can get arbitrarily close to any probability?

This is entirely correct actually. Number of items on day n = (13 - n)*n

The reasoning is that CA uses that tax money in addition to a match provided by the federal government to balance the budget. I’m not a fan of not making it permanent, but the flexibility of re-authorizing the tax each cycle has been very helpful to making sure the CA budget is level. That tax money is returned to the healthcare providers through Medi-Cal so they aren’t really losing anything I think, but the matched money from the federal government can be moved around. Something like that.

As you should. 50k for a base level electric vehicle with no physical buttons is a scam

Ford solved the price parity problem. Just make all cars cost 50k. Brilliant

That’s actually really clever!

 

Why are they always so horrifying?

 

I really only want English language posts and don’t want to scroll past dozens of results in French. Can we just filter by language?
