Oh yeah they (we) do, in the long run it matters. Driving around town, to and fro work, driving around for groceries etc. It adds up. A bike's gas is essentially free because nobody actually factors in the calories. I guess the biggest

Maybe a bit off-topic but I enquired on Quora a few months ago on how one would go about simulating the CP1919 Cover. (I wanted it laser cut on my MacBook Pro through the services of uncover.com) and here's the answer: http://www.quora.com

In 2008/2009 I was browsing Brian Gossett's website http://since78.briangossett.com/ . Back then he had a digital mood board, which was simply a giant collection of JPG files on a white background with appropriate spacing. I saw these sam

In theory there should be only one high street per locality. There was a story on Russian news a few weeks ago how there are multiple streets with the same name in the city of Sochi. They are tackling the problem before the olympics arriv

This is somewhat related. I remember watching an episode of "Stan Lee's Super humans" on the Discovery channel. They were with a man who was also able to do lightning fast calculations, not of the complexity as described in the article, but

I turned off the feed, but I kept hearing a lady with a distinctive Russian accent speaking English, so I suppose that it's the other way around. Although maybe that's just for the spectator feed. Edit: I listened to it again. The Russian c
