Information is definitely dangerous when people distort it and use it for political ends. You can publish verified data and facts with a very clear cut analysis but it is so easy for someone to take parts of that, add some spin and maybe so

Comedies and Cooking are pretty cheap to produce so they are under less pressure. Hmmm.... I wonder if a comedy series about cooking would bring in viewers? :-)

They certainly do know how to make right-hand drive cars. They have just decided it is no longer worth the effort for them to produce versions for the model S and X. Maybe because those models don’t sell in China? Presumably they do still s

This will give you the regrowth but the teeth will look like shark teeth. That might cause some odd looks and be careful not to bite your tongue. You’ll only be able to do that once! :-)

“caught red-handed” implies an intent that is not supported by the evidence. The design of the battery in the 6 turned out to be problematic once the battery reached a certain age. After lots of reports of iPhones shutting down suddenly, Ap

They were desperate for something that would heal illness and very limited in their means to do so. Controlled experimentation had not been invented, yet. This is a problem with many traditional medicines. It is the tradition that matters a

It sounds like a lot of potential but I’m not seeing a lot of actual even though I run a non-Chrome browser and web devs seem to have forgotten that not everyone uses Chrome, it rarely breaks things significantly.

Perhaps they were just not ready to demo any games. Trying to push games on Vision Pro would likely attract more attention than the other use cases they presented. We may see more gaming announcements closer to the actual release. Rumor ha

No, not every location. This means that the sum of the other areas not impacted by weather need to have enough capacity to power the whole, at least for a limited time.

Why do you want to restrict cardboard production? It is one of the best alternatives to plastic for many purposes.

I was still using a mouse when natural scrolling came out and it was a huge improvement. My brain immediately connected the scroll wheel to the content and it made a lot more sense. The unnatural scroll always seemed backwards and focuses t

Question: how do you see downvotes (or any votes) on a comment? I use news.ycombinator.com but all I see is when the downvotes are large enough to gray out the comment. I often see people talking about upvotes and downvotes as though they c

I meant that, in my experience, the backup camera screens in the rearview mirror have been too small and with poor tightness and contrast compared to those in the larger infotainment screens. I feel that a good backup camera system gives yo

According to: https://www.lehighcounty.org/Departments/Solid-waste-managem... . "About 65 % of America's aluminum is currently recycled." That's pretty good. Much better than most materials.

The reputation may continue but American cars are much more reliable today. They may not match the best of the Japanese but they seem to beat the European makes significantly.

I remember old crank windows breaking all the time. I'd take a modern, convenient and more reliable electric window any day.

and that is a much poorer backup camera than the large display in my dash that adjusts for dim lighting and shows a wider angle than I can see by twisting around to look out the back. The backup camera is safer than a back window in this sc

most people want a significant portion of those features but not everyone wants the same set of features. As a result all features as wanted by a significant portion of the customers.

In titles, almost all words are capitalized (except for small word like articles of speech).

I’m curious, what is the benefit from going “classless”? In my CSS usage, classes have been very useful. Why would you not want to use classes?

But why does that argue for “opposite” scrolling? Why add an extra layer of abstraction for no benefit other than habit?
