I hope people don't take from this that no parking at all is necessary, since that's not what they found. They simply found that you have have a bit less parking than what the code required if you implement it in a way where you n

If that's even true it's only because they are so limited in what they can build. Remember there's a limit to how many of those can be sold. Once you've sold them all they'll build sometime else But only if the gove

Completely unnecessary. With prices that high developers are very happy to construct things. All that's necessary is for the government to get out of the way. i.e. dramatically reduce zoning and permitting requirements.

But you would have to add that price world wide. And so far that's not possible. Without having that tax worldwide you need a very complicated and impractical scheme of calculating CO2 from imports, and giving a tax credit on exports.

I assume the use case is to charge the phone and use it at the same time. Otherwise just put your phone on a table or something to charge.

If someone else wants to try this, I strongly recommend against using WiFi for the plugs, instead use Z-Wave or Zigbee. Wifi is just not meant for this use case, it will be unhappy if you start adding a lot of devices, and it will slow down

Regulation. This is one of the market failures caused by excessive regulation. To make a chair you requires so much paperwork that only a small number of business can do it. I especially like the regulations that make sure only those who ne

Something I don't understand is why private equity would destroy a business they themselves own. It doesn't make any sense - they paid billions for Red Lobster, they made some money, they could make even more by having a viable bu

According to an analysis I read the real issue is too much Government spending which is driving the economy. The Fed is trying to slow the economy while the White House is trying to stoke it. The Fed reached their limits on what they can do

Leaving aside the decay part of things, carbon makes a crystal structure of a diamond, other materials don't. So they would refuse to assemble into the right shape.

If protons do decay, their decay product would include a positron that would in turn annihilate with the electron. Leaving a universe with just photons and neutrinos. If neutrinos are their own antiparticle then they could react with each o

Yup, that's exactly it. I've always wondered if the almost universal preference for women to have long hair is linked with their ability to have long hair, while for males people (not you :) typically want it short, which matches

It doesn't. Hair grows for a certain amount of time - time, not length. Then waits for a while unchanging, then falls out. growth (3 to 6 years) -> static (2 to 3 months) -> fall out -> rest -> start over The maximum length

"on sale" = "available to purchase". But if you want to define it as "on sale" = "cheaper price" then buy it right after Passover and stock up - it will last for more than year, so you can buy a lot.

Yes, it's correct, but it's not the oven, it's the flour and water that control it. Basically in the past matzo was made the day it was used because it would spoil otherwise (like any bread), but making matzo came with the ri

The definition of the word Matzo is "unleavened bread", so your question is not well formed.

It's not really necessary to advertise Matzo to Jews...... And there's nothing in the article that distinguishes this brand from any other.
