The only threshold that will automatically get you a reckless driving violation in CA is over 100 mph

Texas has no defined speed threshold

Alabama, where I lived previously on the east coast, has no defined threshold

The guideline for officers in CO is to consider a reckless driving ticket at 26 over the limit and above

I could keep searching individual states but I guess my point is there are many states where 20 over is pretty much a common thing among drivers and not typically punishable with a reckless driving charge. I haven’t spent much time in the northeast, perhaps things are different there.

Lol no, you have to be going something like double the speed limit most places to get arrested

You might get a ticket, but almost any judge will throw the ticket out if they write you up for going 5-10 over. Some places will write the ticket anyways in the hopes of making some extra revenue, but generally speaking it’s not a ticket that is worth writing because it’s so easy to get tossed out.

What part of the country are you from? IME that’s far from universal. I have gotten pulled for 20+ over in multiple states and it’s often just a warning, if I do get ticketed it’s just a ticket and that’s the end of it:

When I had first gotten my license in CA I got pulled over while doing 105-110 in a 65 mph zone. The cop wrote it up for 99 mph, which was a simple speeding ticket without the option for traffic school. I went to court and the judge knocked it down to a <$200 ticket with traffic school so I didn’t get any points on my record.

85 mph in a 65 is normal in a ton of states, they’d be they’d be writing up people for reckless driving in every other traffic stop if 20 over were the threshold.

They collect a tithe of 10% of members’ income from the entire congregation. Most people accumulate less than 10% of their income as net worth annually

So yes, quite possibly they do.

I have tried the ones you are describing and they’re still shit. At that point, just skip the dang straw and design your cups to work well without.

The most annoying thing is most places giving out paper straws still put their iced coffee in a big plastic cup.

I work in the industry and know people who work dream chaser.

I’d honestly rather take my chances with the Boeing capsule than sign up for a ride on Dream Chaser.

We don’t need to understand cognition, nor for it to work the same as machine learning models, to say it’s essentially a statistical model

It’s enough to say that cognition is a black box process that takes sensory inputs to grow and learn, producing outputs like muscle commands.

This, and cultural diffusion is a normal part of human society. It has been for countless thousands of years.

I understand why cultural appropriation can be problematic but the fact remains that the usual mode of cultural diffusion has been, “that’s really cool. I wanna have that too”

It’s not a zero sum game because there isn’t some finite limit. By wearing a kimono or whatever you aren’t taking someone else’s right to wear one away from them.

N1 had 30 engines on the first stage

It was partially staged. The main benefit of staging is dropping dry mass during the burn, and the Atlas I dropped engines
