Toronto uses the [Deep Lake Water Cooling System](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_Lake_Water_Cooling_System) to extract "cold" from lake water before it is treated and used for drinking water.
he just wants free-er speech for his OWN political views
The median spend might be zero $ per year.
> If their property taxes had risen with the rate of the area that they bought a house in as we grew up, we would have been unable to continue living there and forced to leave. The same thing goes with my grandparents.…
The object is not a point mass at the end of the arm, it's a line. Different parts of the line are moving at different relative velocities & accelerations relative to the centre of rotation, and thus when released the…
If you have higher capacity batteries, you're carrying around extra weight you're not using. The long range model 3 has a 480kg battery. Unless there's a massive revolutionary discovery in battery technology, for 10…
When a central authority is in charge of adding transactions to the blockchain, ie: DMV issuing licences, what's the advantage of blockchain over a standard database?
A EV is a much simpler device than a ICE - it's a battery and an electric motor, it's much simpler than mechanical power. Gone are oil pumps, transmissions, etc. On top of all this, you can now route power through…
Walmart and Amazon raising wages allows them to exercise their huge scale to further crush their competitors. With their huge efficiencies of scale and deep cash reserves, they are better able to offer higher wages than…

Matterport does this and uses it for real estate listings all the time. https://matterport.com/gallery/bclm-tollhouse The "dollhouse" view is really handy for being able to get a sense of the space.

I think you're underestimating the value of "you can breathe the air" and "water is easily available via melting snow" when comparing it to Antartica.
How big is this tank? Water is heavy, and we're talking about an insanely massive tank to generate any reasonable amount of energy... that can also move and be used as a gravity battery. Anything you build the tank from…
The discovery of the alternate route by "everyone else" means that the roads are now in more usage. Unless the bridge collapse resulted in increased traffic levels afterwards, the same traffic that used to go over I85…
Not all battery storage needs to be electrochemical - hydroelectric dams work amazingly as pumped storage batteries (although site specific).
I'd actually argue that Android users have more options, thus the market price for apps is reduced by the amount of supply. When you're looking for a "Todo" app, there's 1000's on Android, and many or most are free.…
Cinder block construction can also be difficult to insulate and hide services such as electricity and plumbing behind. In addition, brick buildings are a bad idea in areas subject to [seismic…
Even then, a lot of the "I was talking about something with a friend and never even Googled it then got an ad for it" can be explained by Facebook leveraging their social graph to target ads if your friend googled…
The tax deduction on mortgage interest is one of the most regressive pieces of tax policy. Those with more expensive housing benefit more from the credit. Non-homeowners do not benefit at all, and renters tend to be…
Toronto's deep water cooling system is the largest in the world, and air conditions a good chunk of the downtown core. http://buildipedia.com/aec-pros/engineering-news/torontos-de...
Does something like this exist for USB-C devices? I have to plug and unplug a certain device to change it between machines. Not full emulation and remaining "connected" - just the ability to press a button and change…
Most of the electricity usage is due to the drying cycle of the dishwasher. If you want to be super efficient, set your dishwasher to skip the drying cycle and either prop the door so that the dishes can drip dry, or…
Why would they though? If their customer retention is already super high, the only reason to make an onboarding curve more shallow would be to acquire new users. Given there's already a social appeal to getting a…
Removing the splash screen for Unity is a feature - Unity has a pretty bad rep (perhaps undeservedly) because so much shovelware uses the engine.
