You can buy "skylights" that are essentially internally mirrored tubes that accomplish essentially the same thing. I don't believe they're super cheap right now, but I imagine they could be if they became more widely…
I think that's a good idea in theory, but it still relies on the car knowing when it's looking at a solid object with 100% accuracy.
I couldn't help but hear this in my head in the voice of Montgomery Burns.
It's been a while since I've rented, but I assume this is covered in the agreement when you make a booking. I'd guess their butts are covered from the fraud perspective. Maybe misleading advertisement though?
Could you say more?
How many places in a densely populated city can you precisely drop a bomb with no risk to civilians? Yes, technology has improved, but my point is that better tech doesn't just automatically make war less awful. I don't…
That would be great, but why would one think that?
Terry Pratchett had a plan for things he was working on at the time of his death: > Pratchett told Neil Gaiman that anything that he had been working on at the time of his death should be destroyed by a steamroller. On…
Their government programs have hit some snags recently too. The KC-46 and Starliner programs have not exactly been smooth money-makers for them.
I think you may be slightly misinterpreting the parent comment. When they say the NIF's task is weapons research, I think they meant that the facility was built with that task in mind. When I read your comment it sounds…
Is there a reason you feel they are less prepared than any other organization?
The practices you're describing largely seem sensible, but I think they are also beside the point made by the article, namely that Texas seems to emit more gas per unit of production than a neighbor. > gas doesn't have…
You can't use classical physics to calculate the momentum of a photon. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photon#Relativistic_energy_and...
So, perhaps a good time to start a new business selling inexpensive RISC-V based micro computers?
Non-meta Answer from user @bruce511: "Russia doesn't have much in the way of non-polar coast (well, not today European end) so they've been breaking ice since forever. The US by comparison has very little polar coast…
What makes zippers such a tough problem?
Perhaps I'm out of the loop, but why do you need a smartphone for gym access?
I agree that making a clear demand seems more effective if possible, but I don't think disorganization necessarily implies that displeasure is only momentary and involves no risk. Many people can be upset about…
I think that's good advice in principle, but the practical limitation is the ability of a bunch of redditors to come to an agreement on point #2 on short notice. Maybe they figure the implied message of "you are doing a…
Can you please elaborate?
Tangentially related question: I've always wondered why afterburners on more modern Soviet/Russian engines seem to glow blue, while European or American jets seem to have a more orangey glow. Anyone here know why?
To sail the ship around? I'd think the smelting operation would cover those costs.
I agree with what you say, but for me it's easier said than done. There's a disconnect in my brain because it feels like the rewards for taking the extra time and effort to care about the product tend to end up mostly…
Certainly I would agree that letting go a lot of experience folks would have an effect on the product. However, I think this comment could use some more justification: > But unlike previous generations though (heh),…
I'd second the idea that this was not the major thing holding back adoption of the metaverse. Frankly, even if they announced a program to give free Oculus headsets to anyone who wanted one, I still wouldn't want to…
