Well, not sure whether you'd call it statistics. It's a mathematical fact from probability theory. And it doesn't matter how often you sample: the distributions themselves are the same.
There appears to be a white disc at the end of the removed runway with unnatural dirt patterns. Maybe that's a launch silo? It almost seems like there used to be a runway there to bring in materials and build an underground structure (white disc). The structure does not appear to cast a shadow, potentially indicating that it is flush with the ground.
It looks to me like "First Class Parcels" includes Priority Mail, since there's no other category that could reasonably cover Priority Mail ("Package Services" can't since it shows much slower delivery from one side of the contiguous US to the other than is advertised).
I used to ship a ton of First-Class parcels and Priority parcels about 10 years ago, and learned that they had roughly the same delivery speed (2-3 days anywhere in the contiguous US) with First-Class just having a higher chance of delay.
As I never paid attention to letter delivery speed back then, I didn't realize that letters are much slower (except local). So seeing these maps today is informative.
The maps show the standards only for services, such as First Class Mail, that are classified as “market dominant.” Priority Mail and Priority Mail Express are “competitive” products.
If you click the text in the second paragraph at the top (that doesn’t look like a link), you can find the projected transit time for a specific shipment and service.
I did a ton of eBay up until this last year and there isn’t much difference between first class and priority other than priority gets well priority during sorting but usually they all end up together. Important to note for those unaware that first class parcels are limited to up to one pound.
> I think some teslas now even show a message warning that cruise control will not brake in some cases?
In my experience, that warning about not braking occurs when you are in TACC mode but are pressing on the accelerator to go temporarily faster than the set speed.
Unfortunately some people may have gotten into the habit of hovering their foot over the accelerator to be ready to override phantom braking, so maybe some even rest their foot on the pedal without realizing.
Fortunately, removal of radar will reduce the frequency of phantom braking, so hopefully this habit will fade.
I don't think it was available until after hours, but don't kill me if I'm mistaken, I didn't try to buy any, nor have I paid that close of attention. My understanding is that it should be available on most brokers tomorrow AM.
> The resistance of a 400 volt, 250 Ah NiMH battery is around 180 milliohms. The same battery built with venerable NCR18650Bs (original model S) is 68 milliohms. That's a full 7x improvement
Power dissipated by resistance is only linearly (not quadratically) related to resistance when current is relatively fixed: P=(I^2)R. So reducing the parasitic resistance from 180mΩ to 68mΩ is only a 2.6x improvement, albeit still quite significant.
