    It depends on how the battles are wired.

    If the battles are wired in series (think train cars) it increases the voltage of The circuit. Which means if the electronics require the higher voltage this may not work well, if at all.

    If the batteries are wired in parallel then this is basically half a fuel tank.

    Yep, companies give “unlimited PTO” because it’s a way to actually reduce the amount of PTO employees take.

    Give them 20 days PTO/year? They’ll take around 20 a year.

    Give them unlimited PTO? They need to justify every bit of PTO, so probably only get to take 4 or 5 for important days.






  • Both.

    The top 0.01% are able to exert more and more influence over the world, and are using it to concentrate wealth even more into their own pockets.

    And regular people have access to smartphones that allow them to communicate worldwide instantly. The cost of more basic smartphones has plummeted, so more people have more cameras connected straight to social media.

    But it’s also that some things are genuinely worse. I am fairly sure that there are still more slaves alive today than at any other point in history. However as a percentage I believe it’s lower, it’s just due to the world population being so high.
