Unless I'm much mistaken, the Porsche Mission E hasn't actually run the Nurburgring yet. It's a non-functioning concept that was shown at the motor show, too. Is this article implying it already has in the first two paragraph

Very interesting! Thanks for pointing that out!

Interesting, but there's an awful lot of UFO and remote viewing mentions in there.

Is that actually the thunder front travelling at the speed of sound? My understanding of how Blitzortung works (and similar sites like Lightningmaps.org) is that animation was just a visual cue to draw the eye rather than trying to replicat

This game was so over-hyped. Maybe moreso than any game I can remember. As others have stated, the novelty quickly wears off. The procedural generation is a nice tech demo, but it doesn't actually generate anything... interesting. Occa

'The Dirtiest Race in History' is a very good book about this race written by Richard Moore.

This is a year old, just in case anyone is thrown by the date claiming the 15th August to be a Saturday.

Indeed, China Mieville has spoken about it as an influence when writing The City and The City.

I think they're being downvoted because they're a new account with no submissions and no other comments bar this one, which looks a little... ah... suspicious?

“We had traffic jams, people were honking. It was pretty harrowing.” "Harrowing"?! Man, I hope this guy never has to experience anything actually bad happen in his life.

This is not an apology or admission of guilt for conning people with his ridiculous stories. This is an enigmatic exit, complete with him still tacitly claiming to be Satoshi. Quite pathetic.

Goodness me, that's a lot of bloviation. I think there's a point buried in there somewhere that has been made far more succinctly by a lot of other people.

Indeed - and I also fail to see what was so "insightful"/"good"/"fascinating" about it either, just some relatively old stats and some copy badly in need of an edit. Clearly a voting ring.

Very Iain M Banks-esque name for that drone ship. Is Musk a fan?

Agreed. It had so many stylistic tics - intentional or otherwise - that I found it testing my concentration. A shame, as it was quite interesting. Maybe I'll give it another go tomorrow.

It's neat, I guess, but it's really no different to Dark Sky, Forecast.io, RainToday, etc. and so on.

Yes. Or at least, I found it interesting and engaging despite have almost zero knowlege of baseball. That being said, I'm a huge fan of many other sports, so that no doubt contributed to the enjoyment.

Her bike or not, it simply being in the pits/paddock area of her team is enough for serious punishment [0]. It doesn't even have to have been ridden in the event. It's collective responsibility, basically. [0] http:/&#x

Regardless of the veracity of the article, there's an unsurprising amount of pro-Russian astroturfing occurring in the comments.

Really enjoyed this article, was great to see the process and thinking behind something like this.

This reminds me very much of the Chine Mieville fiction book 'The City and The City'[1]. Worth reading if this has piqued your interest. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_City_%26_the_City

Excellent site and very timely - the UK is currently undergoing a series of serious flooding incidents, especially in the north of the country.

That's an awful lot of Vice-y words about a Facebook group.

Confused by this. Can you expand on what "higher value" and "experience" the audience would gain from this being on Twitch?
