IIRC the contract manufacturer, Steyr Magna, historically produced mainly small-run, expensive cars, trucks and military APCs (!). I suspect that Fisker was spending a lot more per delivered vehicle than their direct…
I did the back-of-envelope calculation [and now you have to read it :)]: A slug about 2 inches in diameter, 1/4 inch thick, is worth about 1 USD at today's copper price (weight = 1/4 pound). So it might almost, but not…
Cracked fuel line? Might let air into the system in certain operating points; might make the fuel pump unhappy (refuses to prime) in some situations. I figured mine out when it finally broke completely: All the other…
It has been done earlier; multiple times, by every serious manufacturer. :-] The real difficulty lies in: 1) Noise in the on-turbine wind speed and direction measurements and/or robustly (see point #2) operating LIDAR…
Thanks to our old friend Baumol [1], cleanliness is not the norm in any typical grocery store in the 1st world. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baumol's_cost_disease
Thirded - Like many of the less-touristy museums in Rome, it's a museum for grown-ups. I think the average HN'er would appreciate it :)
Doubtful of the last paragraph: What kind of clock oscillator 'learns' to keep better time by being adjusted from a better source? A normal crystal doesn't have any memory effect AFAIK. In a typical real life scenario…
Howdy neighbor! Here in Denmark, at the turn of the century, I took a 'classics' class in our equivalent to high school. A bit of Plato and Socrates, a bit of ancient Greek / Roman architecture (different types of…
I wonder if this causes a performance penalty on position independent code, which seems to be used a lot on non-Windows platforms []. [] It always struck me as one of those propeller-head features that GCC & co. love…

Kinda-sorta like a mashup of a DOS PC and a Japanese game console of the SNES / Genesis era. It's cute and retro-cool but also very Japanese, and thus almost entirely unknown in the west.
Utilitarianism is incompatible with Morals. I'm no bible-thumper but I think the man from Galilee had a GOOD point or two.
HTTP.SYS is the core of a Windows NT native web server; the async listen/accept loop, IOCP-based data transfer, etc. IIS is built on top of HTTP.SYS. I presume that it ships with Windows for ease of servicing; it is…

Lovely. This kind of article always ignites some obscure desire to become a professional writer, even though I would probably be crap at it :)
Quite. I suspect many, like myself, mainly know Maigret from the television series starring Rowan Atkinson (yes!).
