It can provide power when solar and wind are not generating, and while doing so also provide base generation that allows the grid to be robust against fluctuations in solar and wind.

I guess we now know what someone at Flock likes in their whiskey glass.

I see you haven't experienced USFoods and Sysco.

> The "Crypto and Privacy" village at Defcon demands you agree to the privacy policies of Salesforce, Google, Microsoft, and Discord to interact with them.

Do you have a citation for this? I am not seeing anything on their website and they did not come up to me and demand I sign anything when I was there?

I think you got them confused, DEF CON is the more counterculture and Blackhat is the corporate conference.

I grew up in rural Oregon, if there was rain forecasted and the farmer was in the middle of a alfalfa or wheat harvest, they would be up in the middle of the night with a combine or bailer to get the harvest done before it gets soaked and potentially destroyed.

> Here on the west coast I'd say most jobs start at 9am

If you work on things for banks, financial markets or the federal government, you may be starting as early as 5~6am on the west coast.

You can also grow up exploring the woods in an area with a lot of poison oak like me and it just does not react on your skin.

That subreddit complains about trash dumping the other 11 months of the year, its just for a little while it can all be blamed on Burning Man.

(Also, despite having lived in Portland, Reno seems to be the worse city in my experience with people complaining about everything on Reddit.)

So, one of the problems with leaving trash in Reno is that even if you do it in a way you think is ethical, moral and correct, your trash can be part of the "Burning Man Trash Problem", things I see _every year_:

1. Burners drop trash with people offering to dispose of it for $5 a bag or so, they end up dumping it somewhere else.

2. Burners drop trash at the major hotels and casinos, who buy dumpsters to attract the burners and then people from the local area toss the dumpsters scavaging for things.

3. The normal trash dumping issues Reno has are, for two weeks a year, blamed on burners instead of the locals. I seriously doubt trash bags full of baby diapers, mail and construction debris (all examples I see on the Reno subreddit every year) are from Burning Man.

There are already legit places in Gerlach, Reno, Lakeview and Ceaderville where you can dump trash and know its going to be disposed properly, but not everyone going is really hip to spotting the trash scams and all that.

Unfortunately all this mixes with the percentage of people going to Burning Man who don't dispose of their trash respectfully and it becomes a large, hard to quantify issue.

How exactly does Boeing drive up the cost? The cost of the aircraft is less than 20% of the lifetime cost of operating an airliner and a lot of the maintenance cost is not related to the cost of parts from Boeing, since most parts that get replaced on an aircraft are not made by Boeing and airlines do not go through Boeing to buy them.

Flock can also fix this by validating the description of the target vehicle against the detected vehicle.

The dispatch backend can fix this by annotating this warrant with a warning that its not this particular vehicle.

Police themselves can fix this by being a human check on dumb entries in computer systems.

Costco has the same sourcing issues a lot of other companies have, they do spend a lot of effort on due diligence when sourcing Kirkland Signature brand products, but sometimes what they get in a production run ends up being something else, or there's unexpected issues with the products once the public gets them.
