There's a saw at home depot (and probably Lowe's) and they'll cut your lumber for you. I think it's one cut per piece of lumber for free. Home depot lumber is super expensive to begin with, so it's kind of baked in

The part you are missing is the gyroscopic procession from the wheels. When you try turning the wheel to the left, you create a force that is 90 degrees to force. If you just turn the handlebars (which would cause the bike to lean in the di

That's not true at all, for instance a number of the records that are part of the download were indexed by Google.[1] So it's more like going in to your library, using the card stack, learning about a book, going to the shelf it i

It's not necessarily a problem that the older generation can only think about technology in a metaphorical sense, the problem is that the metaphors they are using are idiotic. I think, by and large, people are constrained to thinking a

Do they have to sell the data for Zillow to figure it out? I assume at a certain point you get enough data from enough sources to make those inferences yourself.

If the harness is anything like the harness I bought from Home Depot to do work on my roof, it would be nearly impossible to get out of quickly. The nylon is the super stiff abrasion resistant kind as well, which I cannot imagine cutting th

The thing is that most driving deaths don't occur on the highway with dry-well lit roads, and current vehicles can't drive for shit in bad weather. So they shouldn't have autopilot on at all, they should just have the collisi

Chicago doesn't stripe most of the roads. Most of the roads that have stripes in Chicago are administered by IDOT. Chicago even has this codified in the traffic code; while the rest of the state has "improper lane usage" as a

Man, that's incredibly bad. I drive that route all the time and it's not even remotely difficult to follow the highway there. Considering Tesla's must have driven through there hundreds of thousands of times, they should have

Funnily enough I actually look at the KORD weather reports all the time and took the time to learn how to read pilot reports. I think the difference is that captains are dealing with currents in the ocean and in the air. For the most part p

They should at least place a large warning stating that the data is not safe to use for navigational purposes.

That makes a lot of sense. Thanks for the explanation

That seem plausible to me, but aren't memory pretty tightly integrated into the design in a modern processor? How would you be able to take advantage of the additional RAM? Second question, do modems exist that could handle the bandwid

The problem is that a lot of people that complain about actual issues, like Facebook stalking, also try telling people about a lot of things that are totally conspiracy theories. On top of that, as someone with experience in database mark

Plus a satellite doesn't have intrinsic value. If a moving truck lost all my stuff I didn't intrinsically value I'd just contact my insurance company and buy a new one. Obviously it takes time to build a satellite, but it&#x2

There's an interesting theory, which I can't recall the name of, that says that poor people understand the rich because they can empathize with them, but it takes too much energy for the rich to empathize with the poor because the

My understanding is that the bigger issue is that Tibet is bordered on the West by a geographical barrier in the Himalayas, whereas the Eastern border with China is relatively unprotected. Given the tensions between India and China, it make

I never said there wasn't regional variety. I said I'm probably expecting something from Southern Mexico when I eat Mexican. Either way, Tex-Mex isn't really "Mexican", it's definitely a fusion, so if you are e

Furthermore, if there are street lights, and you go through an unlit area, you should be able to detect the presence of an obstacle because it will be obscuring the view of the road ahead. Uber's technology clearly sucks, to the extent

They don't have to discontinue a product to massively screw with my workflow. All they need to do is change how the product is accessed, or the settings and labs features that are available. I mean, point being I don't trust them

Google is taking naming cues from Microsoft now. Microsoft's naming conventions are maddening if you are trying to search for documentation. I have spent a lot of time developing for Access and Excel, and trying to search for VBA solut
