Overhead. Two one-person escalators next to each other require more space than one two-person escalator.

There are areas in the world that don't have the necessary infrastructure for traditional toilets. Given the funding by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation the goal is probably deployment in those areas.

It's just my first impression. The experience when using it may feel very different.

Netflix doesn't have the streaming rights for their own content in some countries because they have sold that to others in the past at least temporarily.

Battery life is not only increasing due to improvements in the battery itself but also due to software improvements. It would be interesting to see precisely who much software and hardware improvements contributed to increased battery life.

Indeed but he can be manipulated by his family and his lawyers just as easily as by the investigators. He simply can't be relied upon so you have to look at the evidence instead. Based on that I don't think he's guilty, there

I think that cuts both ways though. The "confession" is a joke but his performance on the stand isn't convincing either. Whatever he says at any point can't be taken to be the truth.

Actually you can. In Berlin it costs 1.50€, if you're paying without using cash so using a CC, EC or something like that.

I'd also question how Uber defines job here. Something tells me those thousands of jobs they're thinking of might not be full-time jobs providing a wage you can live on.

The only thing Uber has a problem with is encouraging people to play taxi with their private car using private insurance. That's not allowed for very good reason, the other services they offer work fine. The taxi market is heavily but

Indeed. You should keep the complexity to a reasonable level, lines of code tends to correspond to it so it makes sense to keep the number of lines of code per function low. The author doesn't understand the relationship, he blindly fo

Learning about autotools is an amazing source of fremdscham. The whole compilation/packaging stuff is hard to get right but autotools looks like someone completely gave up on producing a good, decent or even bad solution and just tried

I'd assume that you would only hide in such a tunnel temporarily and not in sight of an attacker. Just stay in there until it's night, the situation calms down and it's easier to slip away completely.

Many of these conclusions aren't actually from archeologists. The actual research is often very explicit about what is unknown. It's just as you get further away from it that people fill in the holes with guesses to get a picture,

You question a change to a status quo but ignore that the status quo deserves to be questioned just the same. The terms are clearly, obviously and unquestionably inspired by actual human slavery. That's in bad taste at best. Using the

You do realize that slavery is a current problem, right? Slavery is a multi-billion dollar industry and there are tens of millions of people enslaved today in the entire world.

In any country with reasonable regulation it's going to be especially illegal, if you're a doctor and certainly not something you can opt out of.

You forget politics. Especially in Germany the hacker scene is very political and fairly well connected. If you're product is essentially spying on people and selling the results (Google, Facebook, ...), you limit the pool of employees

There is no way to reliably revoke certificates. Therefore it's crucial to keep a short expiry limit. 90 days isn't short, it's about 89 days too long.

CoC do explain who to contact for help, the equivalent to 911, if you will.

No and probably not. You're underestimating just how large the German software development/hacker community is.

Getting an accurate enough sample from your breath without cooperation and breathing into a tube is probably impossible. Even then there still is the question of whether that sample is actually human breath from the driver. Apart from that

That's a feature. What is the point of contributing to a project, if someone else can effectively destroy all your work at their discretion?

LLVM is written in C++ and I'm assuming that the Swift compiler developers are also very familiar with C++. It's also fairly straight forward to write binding for any language to things written in C/C++. The latter makes it a

Doctors have been working to advance the field for centuries certainly but for pretty much all of them science by any reasonable definition wasn't involved in the process. Evidence-based medicine (what else would it be based on?) is ac

In Lisp basically everyone starts to develop their own languages. Given that most people can barely get a reasonable API together that's just a bad idea.

I admittedly haven't been that close to one but we do trust or are seriously considering trusting software to control heavy machinery like cars. Is is truly so out of the question that we might be able to make them safe enough for that

The drone could hover over the sidewalk in front of a building, you could signal it with your smartphone similar to how the sign is used in the first video. The drone could then drop the package or it could have a mechanism that allows you
