I see your point, but that is definitely not the only cause of American economic dominance. The U.S. has been the largest economy by GDP since ca 1900 – i.e. before the wars.
> Huh? Every EV uses recuperative braking, how is this special to Tesla?
It‘s not. But there are some newer EVs (e.g. Mercedes and VW) that track brake usage and will periodically switch to using the disk brakes when there‘s danger of corrosion.

Hi! I’m a Senior Software Engineer and project manager with over 16 years experience in the industry. Full Stack, with a strong focus on the front end side of things.
I’ve co-founded and led a music and messaging focused start up as the CTO for 5 years — from the first MVP until it got acquired in 2019.
I’m very much a product builder with a keen eye for detail and UX, a strong sense of responsibility and ownership. As a team leader I consider myself empathetic and pragmatic.
just as a little side note: while it really isn‘t regarded as a typical mac game nowadays, Halo was originally planned as a Mac-exclusive, before Microsoft bought Bungie. If memory servese me right, Jobs even presented it as an exclusive at some MacWorld or Expo.
their site says it’s 90% efficient [0], which is impressive, but I agree, still sub-optimal for large scale installations.
The other thing is that it needs to be perfectly aligned. If you can’t be bothered to plug in a cable, can you be bothered to align your SUV in your garage perfectly with a charge pad?
Heh. I had one of those MacBook Pro i9's as a work machine. It was absolutely awful. I remember running an npm / node build and the thing would sound like an airplane was taking off.
Nah. I used a phone for two years running Linux with FVWM and mostly VTE apps. If anything keyboard driven UIs are nicer on touch screens since the controls don't slide over each other all the time.
Most people think they would be bad because they haven't tried them.
Imagine if iPad gains a Windows Continuum-like morphing desktop functionality when docked with peripherals and a monitor. They could name the feature . . . Continuation?
Agree that react isn’t the best implementation of the concept, both in terms of ergonomics and efficiency. But a react-like framework is still very much needed to create complex apps in the browser. So IMHO react is a solution to a very current problem, only not an ideal one.
