For that reason I'm annoyed at large SUVs losing their boxiness in recent years. Like, I get it for sedans and stuff, but if I'm driving a big SUV my main concern is utility (you know, the U in SUV) and a curved back side makes it that much harder to fit my grandma's kitchen table in the back when I give it to my cousin.

In theory a decent QA team will catch things being done by shitty developers. If your dev and QA is shit, management is shit for letting it happen.

Machine learning has some pretty cool potential in certain areas, especially in the medical field. Unfortunately the predominant use of it now is slop produced by copyright laundering shoved down our throats by every techbro hoping they'll be the next big thing.

Admittedly I use gas for both those things, so yes, I did forget about them. The point largely remains: it's highly unlikely that you'll have all loads going at full blast, and for that reason the load calculation is far more complex than simply adding up the breakers. It also understands that circuits are generally only partially used, and that the worst case scenario is a nuisance, not a hazard.

GM had a similar deal when I bought my Bolt. It was pretty awesome, since my panel is on the other side of my house from the garage and it would've cost about $1500 otherwise. Lots of horror stories with the middleman they used (QMerit) and people having "non-standard" installations over silly little things though. Hopefully Ford has a little better implementation.

That would be cool, but really? They could have also sold the car and nothing else. They do a promo that should make EVs a little more approachable for a lot of people, and you're demanding a (probably) 5-figure addition to that?

"up to" 60 amps per the original snippet means you could do less if a load calculation needs it. Really, damn near any panel installed in the last several decades can take an additional 240V 20A circuit, which is still a lot of juice if you math out the kind of use you can get over a year.

What are you talking about? 200A is a HUGE panel as it is. You're going to have a hard time getting bigger than that on a residential connection. If you go balls to the wall with the big stuff in your house, you'd be looking at about 30 amps for AC, 50 for stove and oven (by the way, that's all burners and oven running at the same time. Happy Thanksgiving?), 30 for a clothes dryer, and you still have 90 amps at 240 volts remaining.

Oh, and realistically that's two 90-amp sets of 120 volts. And really, most people charge their car at night, when demand and rates are lower. Maybe your AC is going to run occasionally, but you're probably not making that Thanksgiving feast while laundry is going

She's moving (moved?) to the new district, but constitutionally you only need to live in the same state as the district you represent

That's cool, and I'd love to see it. "wage" means hourly payment for time worked. Anything else is a benefit or whatever - but not wage. Wage theft is not getting paid wages due.

Vacation time is not the same as hourly wage.

I don't think we really disagree here. You're focusing on what people are. I'm focusing on how they see themselves. They're not necessarily the same things.
