Senior people like Raymond Chen (or at least the good ones) often get to where they are by doing some amount of work that's "below them" or outside their scope in order to keep their understanding of the full stack up…

In my jurisdiction a battery development is just about the only kind of development that can tell the evil rule and restriction people masquerading as do-gooders to GFY (though of course it still gets kicked in the dick…
Approx one fire per 100 vehicles per year sounds about right based on my unscientific dealings with auction oil field trucks. My gut feel is that vehicles of all types seem way more disposed to fire than stuff from the…

"joke's on you it's a civil infraction so you have basically no rights" -the officer, at least in his head if not out loud
Around here they're based off GPS plus time. To many cops got splattered because they had their lights set to day at night and the traffic couldn't see the officer.
The sad part is I can already imagine the useful idiots hand wringing in the comments about how it's such a travesty that we allow old cars that don't do that on the road and we need to "incentivize" those people to…
