Reply to comment by M8dude in There’s just as many numbers between 0 and 1 as there is from 0 to infinity. by Resinate1

Ok thanks, didnt realize that with the different corresponding function. My logic would be that y=2*(x+1/2) can be used to define every number in both sets (where y is 1-3 and x is 0-1). But there are numbers outside of the set 1-3, say 15. So if I made a different set, inclusive of 1-3 and 15, then there are more numbers in this new set.

I guess I understand that I'm wrong since mathematicians smarter than me have come up with theories/proofs to what you're saying, but I think there's logic in my argument.

Reply to As electric cars become more common, teenagers will no longer have as many issues sneaking out. by HackPorpoise

Expect cars to very soon implement bio-security measures so that the car can identify the driver using more than just which key they are using. If a teenager sneaks out and takes the car then it may be the car that snitches on them. They will probably also implement parental controls so that junior can't turn the car on after 10pm unless mom or dad is with him.

Also, make sure you get it back in time to fully charge it before your parents need to drive it to work. It's not as easy as topping off the tank in an ICE engine car.
