I thought the Economist used to have much higher quality articles. Where is the historical analysis? Is it more apocalyptic now than during the cold war when kids hid under their desks? Did America really win the space race because of a p

They would generally be single lane tunnels so no merge issues. Breakdowns would be rare since these are well-maintained but if one did occur, the fleet would be programmed so the car behind simply pushes the AV through to the next exit. T

1) The "attach" would likely be virtual, just meaning a tight following distance. You could have optional shock absorbers if you're really worried about collisions in the tunnels. Most likely not needed though. 2) Yes I&#x2

Imagine if the subway car you were riding in could detach from the train, take an exit tunnel to the surface streets then drop you off within a block from your house. AVs in tunnels allow for a wide range of density from 2-seater to high de

And which countries does this work for? They all still somehow still manage to have palaces. There's also a strong argument that charity transfers to the poor does far more harm than good. How do you price a field worth of wheat, a m

It's not that sad, it'll probably go away. Anyone remember when Google first got popular and for like 5-10 years after everyone did the same with that, there was even the "let me google that for you" meme + site. It was

It depends, if you want the best possible colonoscopy quality, do the liquid/"sludge" prep, the general consensus is it cleans you out the best and gives the best possible view during the procedure. However that's only

I wonder how quickly airlines will adopt sanded/rough wings. It's also interesting that the efficiency of winglets were known for quite awhile but only somewhat recently have nearly all airliners adopted them.

I did read it, thus my comment. Did you actually read the methods? This is what you're defending: "Methods This study took a qualitative approach, using semi-structured interviews with n=15 industry leaders" .. "Partic

Papers like this should be called opinion surveys. Calling it a study is a disservice to science. As Feynman said, anything where they have to put science as a suffix is usually not science.

They already demonstrated that entire tiles can be removed without wrecking the spacecraft. The quarter thing may have been true for the space shuttle, that doesn't make it true in general.

This could be true if labor were ever the bottleneck in construction projects. It almost never is.

Did FiveThirtyEight really get that much right other than the 2016 election? I remember thinking they were the best data journalists out there, and they had some nice visualizations but did their other predictions actually hold up?

> Every battleship is a hospital not built It's sad that this is believed when it's most often the opposite. Especially in this case we have a literal historical example. You'll never guess what Henry Kaiser built before
