Any red blooded amedican would specify 45acp, and mention if the weight is the bullet (projectile), or the entire round (bullet, case and propellant). I have never heard anyone use a bullet to compare weight however, its very strange.

Facebook is alredy all of those things though, and nobody pushed back. Thats the root of the problem. Too many smart but socially myopic jerks decided their SV projects funding was more important than human decency. YC is part and parcel of

Bose were almost always panned after the 301 by audio people. While they have good design, their performance always seemed secondary. They were more of an 'I can afford it' thing. While I dislike their products, their branding is

The alternative, tire boots, are equally asinine and more likely to damage the car. These seem fractionally better up to the point where they are hacked. Unessarily connected devices are a liability beyond measure, and it floors me that nob

I used to dabble in model aircraft. A 'drone' is just a computerized one. I could regularly cobble one together for a few hundred, most of that being electronics. The body was balsa wood with shrink film covering, super cheap. Not

What if the shoes were nothing more than adaquate, and the marketing alone increased the athletes performance? It is already a very self-selecting subset of many elite athletes with the inherent bias that brings. But shoes are only going to

Most motorbikes overstate speed for whatever reason. Usually by 2-5%. I would agine your estimate was more accurate. There is a whole industry for correcting motorcycle speedometers.

I see a lot of comments saying they would be afraid of skin in the game. I ask those who feel that way; why on earth would you work every day toward something you don't see yourself in, breathe and beleive in? That sounds utterly soul-
