Ford Will Keep Battery Factory Even If Republicans Ax Tax Break

news.ycombinator.com Neal E. Boudette 2026-03-06 05:37:47

In addition to giving tax breaks to consumers who buy or lease electric cars and trucks, the Inflation Reduction Act provides tax credits for automakers and suppliers that build battery plants in the United States. If the credits survive, they could offset about a quarter of the cost of the plant in Marshall, Ford executives said. The House version of the Republican bill would eliminate credits for plants that were built with materials or technology from China, Iran, North Korea or Russia. The

Donald Trump and Sean Hannity Set Off a Wave of Disinformation After Iran Bombing

wired.com David Gilbert 2026-03-06 20:33:31

President Donald Trump and his most vocal supporters have been using disinformation, fake videos, and mental gymnastics to try to spin the US military’s bombing of three Iranian nuclear sites as a complete and total victory that signals the end of a war instead of the beginning. On Saturday night, with the B-2 stealth bombers that dropped a dozen GBU-57 “bunker buster” bombs on the Fordow underground nuclear facility just beginning their flights back to the US, Trump declared the mission a comp

The issue was quite simple, developers wanted a way to preallocate a piece of memory and use it as mimalloc's heap. Seeing that mimalloc does not offer this feature, I thought: "how hard can it be to write a memory allocator to manage a preallocated region?".
