@hwinkler4real And it's the likes of you who put skin color and reproductive organs above competence that are responsible for making that a valid question.

@TheLaurenChen Reading's pretty important as well or are you just assuming it's being taught?
English
This may be an unpopular take amongst the right
But art and the humanities are important
Beauty and entertainment are important
Education should be about more than rote memorization

When theology was the queen of the sciences, universities were built with otherworldly beauty. When the university became centered on the hard sciences, the university itself became ugly.

@Reik3r @MrDanielBuck North Korea wasn't "genocided". The Communists attacked under the assumption it would be a walk-over. It wasn't.
NK is still a rogue regime so its sanctions are earned.
Lastly, like every other nation governed by socialist principles, NK is dirt poor.
And it is longitudinal.
English
@MrDanielBuck North Korea was genocided, had every single settlement bombed into rubble, and has been under crushing economic sanctions ever since.
If you have to influence your "experiments" so much I think maybe you're trying to hide something.
Also this is latitudinal not longitudinal.

Let's try a longitudinal experiment where one half of a country tries capitalism and the other half tries communism, see what happens

Peak racism.

@ASpecs99314 @frammdo @FrankLuntz Nope.
Math and engineering determine what's doable, not what's acceptable to the buying public and it's the buying public that has the final word your unhappiness not withstanding.

@AllenMajorovic @frammdo @FrankLuntz Actually the math and engineering decides what’s optimal. And for the most advanced technology and features EV architectures are optimal.

@ASpecs99314 @frammdo @FrankLuntz Upset? Why would I be upset. I'm getting what I want which is the collapse of the EV market as public resistance mounts and the grip of the fad looses its grip.

@AllenMajorovic @frammdo @FrankLuntz I’m sorry you are upset. Maybe don’t wade into arguments that are out of your depth.
English
@frammdo @FrankLuntz No, we don't got it.
"We" are carefully avoiding my point which is that I don't like mandates and I especially don't like mandates when they're created by people with no accountability for the damage their mandates cause.

The article was about the superior production process of Chinese automakers in general. They are much more productive than the rest of the world.

@PaulDMauro Yes but what if you have the best of intentions and all sorts of really clever rationalizations? Is race-based wealth redistribution unconstitutional then?

So says a race-baiter who grew up richer than all those metrics put together -- and who won't lose a dollar under that plan. Oh -- and race-based wealth redistribution is sort of unconstitutional as well.

@EVCurveFuturist What percentage of Denmark's electrical production comes from Swedish dams, German coal plants and French nuclear reactors?
English
Denmark didn’t “transition” its grid—it replaced it. ~15% → 92% renewable electricity in 25 years. Wind did the heavy lifting. Solar is scaling. Interconnection balanced. Flexibility solved variability. Wind built it. Solar is scaling. Fossil lost it. This IS system replacement.
English
@frammdo @FrankLuntz Okay, so other countries are trying to shove EVs out the door. That's not a vote of confidence in the technology.
That's a mandate.
English
Did I stutter? I told you that they have fleet requirements, as many Western countries do. These requirements apply to manufacturers. They set targets for the composition of fleet sales. If a manufacturer sells too many internal combustion engine (ICE) cars, they have to pay a fine for every ICE car above the limit. However, these limits don't prevent buyers from purchasing an ICE car from the same manufacturer next year or from a different manufacturer with remaining capacity.

@MissyPurcell Where do I go to collect my Nobel Prognostication Medal?
Yeah, public ed's become, effectively, a law onto itself and that sort of privilege is hard to give up. The public's decided it's impossible to give up which is why school choice has moved relentlessly forward.
English
“Education advocates in Georgia have told me that although the law declares that the science of reading shall become the standard in Georgia, the state education department is reluctant to force school districts to change their practices.”
As one of those advocates, I can tell you, that’s exactly it. We passed strong laws. But we didn’t hold the line.
Too much flexibility has turned into too many excuses. And now we have 180+ districts all doing their own “reading plans.”
Kids don’t learn to read 180 different ways.
If you want change, don’t just pass the law, enforce it!

If the decision's not being made around the dinner table then the child's best interests become just another consideration and not a very important one.

@frammdo @FrankLuntz You didn't do much research - news.mit.edu/2021/chinas-tr…
The peaceful religion's Falun Gong and the ethnic groups targeted for genocide are the Uyghurs and Tibetans.
But the Chinese Communists are the same as any other Communist nation. They're all built on piles of dead bodies.
English
I told you that what you're saying is BS. I researched the Chinese EV transition extensively. It's an interesting case study, at least.
Exterminating a peaceful religion? Do you mean Islam? Islam is not a peaceful religion. That's just nonsense.
Islam is not being exterminated in the PRC.
The Hui are the largest Muslim ethnic group in China. There are around 10 million of them. The Uyghurs are second, followed by Kazakhs, etc. The only ones being suppressed are the Uyghurs, who are known for their extremism. A disproportionate number of Uyghurs joined ISIS, for example. Compared to most Muslim populations around the world, more Uyghurs per capita joined ISIS.

More than 350 million vertebrate animals are killed by human driven vehicles every year. In general, autonomous vehicles are much better than humans at dodging animals. A compilation I made of @Tesla’s FSD stopping for animals, and often saving their lives:

@frammdo @FrankLuntz I did look it up and it really is on brand anyway for a dictatorship.
After all, China's currently engaged in the extermination of a peaceful religion and two ethnic groups. I don't think it's much of a stretch for them to mandate which car people can buy.
English
@AllenMajorovic @FrankLuntz It is simply wrong that China mandates electric cars. Look it up. Just because you want things to be true doesn't mean that they are true.
A blue car doesn't turn yellow just because you say that it is yellow.

@Electroversenet Trouble is, wind turbines are nearly at their practical size limit and that's the only economy of scale for them.
English
Wind turbines are getting bigger, more efficient, and are delivering higher output. That sounds impressive, but it isn't compared to other sources.
A single nuclear plant, for example, produces around 1,750 megawatts. To match that, you need roughly 150 large turbines.
Wind uses over 100X more land than nuclear for the same output. And turbines, of course, only produce power when the wind is blowing. Nuclear is constant.
Then there's the storage requirements.
To make wind reliable, you need batteries. At grid scale, that becomes impossible with current technologies.
Wind power remains an expensive pipe dream, lining the pockets of a few at the expense of the many.
