I've had an overage charge once. The driver hadn't selected in the app that he'd dropped me off, and drove for about an hours afterwards. I messaged Uber about it when I saw the overage charge, and it was refunded about 30 minutes later.
It’s a team sport so they don’t optimize for fantasy leagues. If they are pulled to avoid risk of injury on a blowout their stats look worse. Essentially, a 2:0 win could look worse than a 2:3 loss.
In effect their a RNG that happens to make people dislike them.
The energy cost of sea transport is like 50 less per distance traveled than on land and it has being like that for the last 3000 years. So the cost of shipment to Netherlands is just a cost of transporting to the nearest sea port from Sahara.
Iron is heavy, dense as a material, but the cost-efficient of moving it around as an energy store depends on it's energy density (and it's initial cost), not it's basic density as a material.
I think an iron-powered ship would have to be a steamship.
There are still a small number of steam-turbine-powered merchant ships being built- specifically LNG carriers, where gas that boils off from the cargo can be used as fuel.
While it could resolve ambiguities when discussing two objects that happen to have different grammatical genders, it seems it would introduce more anaphoric ambiguities when discussing a person and object with the same gender.
For example:
"George a laissé tomber le livre et son dos était cassé."
Which back was broken here, George's or the books?
No genuine ambiguity here, it's the book (and I suspect that's typical). Even if you increased the ratio of theoretically ambiguous sentences, if that comes at a decrease of actual, practical ambiguity (uintended and unnoticed by the speaker) that's a win.
What is the basis for your belief that smaller groups of people will intrinsically care more about the environment than larger groups?
In an anarchic society, what mechanism would be limiting these cooperatives to 10,000 employees? How would this be enforced, and what would the consequences be for exceeding 10,000?
I would say it's the fact that despite humanity's initial state being anarchy, all over the world human society has developed along basically these same patterns.
