Well maybe this is different in the US but in Europe electric cars are easily 20% heavier than similar models. The traction idea is not absurd. Tesla owners claim the tires last around 25000 kilometers instead of 60000…
There are other problems arising for electric cars: road tax. Electric cars are way havier than most cars and have so much traction that road maintenance will be much more expensive when everybody has an electric car.…
And it is estimated world population will grow to 11 billion max.
Your comment is absolutely unhelpful. What is your point? Should we kill everybody over 70 years old? Because: there is no overpopulation, and if there was it is not caused by too many babies but by people living…
I guess I will be downvoted for this but it always amazed me that so many people in HN are religious when it comes to mindfulness, Buddhism and meditation. There is no scientific proof that there is any difference…
The same is true for digital audio. We are so used to see the visual presentation of samples that look like a bar diagram, that a lot of people think analog sounds better because the curves are smoother. Chris…
I have a comment in this thread about stress that might help you. About anxiety: talk to a psychologist and keep doing things you like.
Your stress is the result of responsibilities or the feeling of responsibilities you can't control. First step is to figure pout what you feel you are responsible for but are not. You can quit that part immediately…
Some time ago I had a long period of intense stress. It is amazing how much it changes your mind and body. Muscles contract causing all kinds of insuline problems, your hormones become a mess, and all this is raising…
What is now also known, and not very clear from the article, is that sipping water throughout the day is not very good. As the article is pointing out, a lot is happening when you drink water. And sipping all day means…
It is most likely made of welded titanium particles as others point out. Imagine a thin layer of titanium dust. Then shine a laser on the points where you want to weld. When done, add another layer over it and repeat.…
Dell computers are very easy to open. Desktops even don't need screws. Laptops might have some screws but that's about it. That is also how they keep repair costs low. I always think they are better designed than Apple…
With Dell I got the same experience. My power supply stopped working. Next day they came to my office and replaced the power supply and main board as well, just to be in case.
The first comment is about the constant Tau. I never heard of Tau so I had to look it up and came across this: "pi is a confusing and unnatural choice for the circle constant." So now I am confused. If a cicle has a…
Yes but it has more costs involved than just this. For example the statistics of the brands Sony and Canon are now wrong and the budget of advertising is still as it was yesterday. So the bookkeepers have a lot of exta…
Yes. It is a little more complicated than I posted earlier, but the point is that not all parties agreed on the arrangement so there was no arrangement.
Here an example (in Dutch): http://uitspraken.rechtspraak.nl/inziendocument?id=ECLI:NL:G...
In the Netherlands this also happened some times on webshops. And everytime a judge ruled people had to bring the goods back or should pay the full amount. The reason is that it is very clear for the buyer it is a…
I believe the article is false. As far as I understand [1] Firefox will notice you if the domain was breached and your password is older than the breach. [1] https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1559365
What works but can be hard to do is to direct you to the person who was interrupting you, look them in the eye and say something like: sorry I was talking and you interrupted me. And then continue where you left off.…
I even believe in ten years the world will be completely different. When a country like India lacks drinking water a huge mass of people will be on the move. In Europe food production is in trouble. This will also cause…
Might this be a memory issue? I run it on Xubuntu and noticed it sometimes uses all my 8GB RAM so the PC starts swapping.
The game is most about traffic management. This is not very surprising because the company behind it was focused on traffic games. I like the game a lot. But to be fair: you must download a good traffic control mod to…
There is a lot of talk about it and the conclusion is that there is no need to take action. The estimated max is 11 billion because the birthrate is very low right now. The 'problem' is that we live longer.
Well you can implement a solver in hardware as well which will be very fast.
