30% on sales up to 10 million, 25% on additional sales up to $50 million, 20% on sales above that.

We went to school together :) I would agree with Prof Sayood's "Signals and Systems" was a great class. I would agree that many TAs, including myself when I was a TA, were confused and/or overwhelmed.

I've been in some good coordinating calls for widespread incidents. Many unique individuals (15+) talked in a ten minute period, sharing context on what their teams were seeing, what re-meditations had worked for them, etc..

Some EVs start with capacity “gated off” to limit the depth of early cycles and provide a more graceful degradation.

But a lifetime of 3y doesn't jive with why my 7 year old vehicle is mostly fully functional. Even with 10% over-provisioning (amazingly expensive 7y ago), that's only a 15% reduction in 7 years.

The statement "The life of the commonly used chemistries is only around 3 years" is completely misleading and probably inaccurate.

I don't know about the 3 years number, but generally speaking battery lives are estimates/averages based on statistics. If you have a battery that was well cared for it will outperform the average. Also sometimes it's just dumb luck. One aberration isn't nearly enough data to throw out the entire premise

Decline of the stay at home mom. Both parents tired from work means less quality attention, less consistent meals, etc..

Sounds like we need to shorten the work week

My wife made very good money. She still quit her job to be a stay at home mom. Being a good parent to multiple children and taking care of yourself is pretty much impossible if both parents are working. Not every family can go single income but I think more could (and should) than do.

I gave this LOVE framework a try a couple years ago, but was dissuaded by the amount of spritework needed for my game. But looking at your prototype games here, they look pretty good and playable as is.

I would love a restaurant review site that could tell you “your brother’s friend from college has been here once and liked it”.

I'd definitely use that, though I'd prefer a social graph protocol which restaurant pages just sort of tap into, rather than having a dedicated site. That way we can use the same trust graph for many applications rather than having the restaurant review graph be separate from the scientific peer review graph which is separate from the trusted mechanic review graph etc...

The union could hold shares in a trust, pledging not to sell. Then vote with the shares, and distribute any dividends through to the workers.

How does that fix the issue? For every marginal dollar the workers would rather receive the entirety of that (through wages) than for that same dollar to be paid out as profit to shareholders, of which they'd only get a fraction.

I think you’ve just invented the ESOP.

A 32" computer monitor is awful similar to a dumb TV from 20 years back. Projectors too.
