Yes. These are the design constraints. Really it should be 2 or 3 different, almost certainly cheaper, aircraft.

I'm struggling to find analogies here. Everyone, you need to drive the Ford 35 Mustang. It's not the fastest car but it's pretty fast. If you strap a trailer on the back then sure it now loses all it's maneuverability bu

Yes and it's insanity. Entire books have been written about this.

"Doesn’t seem like a great way to tell the age of a skull." The confidence of people far away at a different time without any relevant knowledge to dismiss an experienced local on the ground based on flawed high-level logic never

I think it's 5: Go, pop-up, 4-star, bookstore, whole foods.

You literally give unasked advice in your other thread. I'm not sure we can run open discussion boards with the principle that you can't insult anyone for any reason even unintentionally.

I meet people all the time whose sole source of information is their doctor. And, I said 'FWIW' as the very first word. I realize this is the internet but that's a stretch to find an insult.

The recent uproar about the NEJM issue containing only marketing is the counterpoint. Dr Fung pointed out that there's no wonder people turn to GOOP when the system is so broken. So while I understand and appreciate your point, I don&#

FWIW there are a fair number of people who report good results for this and the original post issues with keto, fasting and related things on Reddit. A bunch of claims around gluten too.

Competition on high volume routes plus larger aircraft on those routes to amortize the costs. This is exactly what happened with trains. High volume routes saw a lot of competition and were very cheap and local routes were very expensive. S

And, you can get a lot of the benefit "for free" by just buying BRK.B shares, without all the pain of drinking cherry coke all day and reading SEC filings.

Why hasn't the FAA been privatized anyway? It looks like most of Europe's air controllers and even airports were long ago privatized.

Exactly, and put better than I could. It appears that the simplicity of the explanation is itself a problem. Surely - all these chronic diseases can't be that simply explained? Dr. Wahls essentially claims carbs are the root cause of M

The much simpler explanation is they're both caused by carbohydrates and especially sugar.

I have an XPS 2-in-1 and I open to 180 degrees sometimes when laying down and using the touchscreen. It sometimes works in economy seats as you can rest the laptop on your lap and then the screen is kind of like a seatback IFE. But if you o

Humans will always need to move around, yet it's not clear how we'll move around in the future. While self-driving cars have potential it's not clear that dense urban areas will make a ton of sense for them, and so perhaps

From memory; pitot tubes froze over and airspeed became unreliable. Autopilot disengaged and they had a stall warning. One pilot went full nose down, the other wanted full nose up. The latter probably believed the flight envelope protection

Trying to find real data that amazon prices are going up: Is it this product? https://camelcamelcamel.com/Dr-Elseys-Premium-Clumping-Litte... It looks like the price has been roughly the same for 4 years with jumps up and d

I agree if the prices are now really higher. They don't "feel" higher to me. Here's cat litter that's $17.49 (one of the root comments mentioned this but it might not be the identical product): https://ca

So you saved $4.40 to go to Walmart. * There's a non-zero chunk of the population not near a Walmart or similar. * It costs time to go there * It costs vehicle depreciation So if you were going to Walmart anyway, or walked there with n
