Pro Tip: Buy a professional dental pick. I bought one on Amazon for around $35 about 10 years ago. I use it every day. It works great.
Yeah. I agree. I often tend confuse the terms "mirage" and "oasis" in my own mind. After all, they are both things one might perceive in a hot desert, although the first is not real; whereas, the second is real.

In addition, NH3 (ammonia) would probably first be used in cargo ships (which I learned in another thread here on HackerNews) which currently produce vast amounts of pollution. The main point is this: cheap, clean,…
You are missing something important. Uber is like a bit like Walmart or Costco. They all enjoy economies of scale; Uber simply has bad management.
