Those are solid. The Windsor 302 engine is bulletproof. They are actually swapped into mustangs because they have a set of better flowing engine heads (named gt40p) and intake/exhaust manifolds.

I only buy toyota vehicles. Our household and immediate family are toyota owners (at least one per household, two at mine). I'm not a fanboy though. The cars are cheap to operate and last a long time. Plus the resale value is decent. T

The hybrids are very area dependent. Like you have experienced, service shops are not common. Although those things are reliable because the whole hybrid market would have tanked if they were lemons. So they were forced to overengineer the

Great point. The whole process seems alien to me. More so when its forced by one of the biggest computer companies in the world.

The data is good. I have been in the auto repair industry (in various forms)for a long time and can attest that the results are correct.

Note that Chrysler sold the first generation Jeep Liberty with mediocre ball joints. They had a big recall and never did fix the flaw. I know because my dad owns such ca. Ive replaced them more than 5 times

Weird thing is I was writing the code in my head a I read the instructions. Hard to believe people would fail that but years of hiring have shown its true.

I wish it were that easy. Sometimes you need to be in every platform to be considered by your market. Its simply sucks.

Android definitely has issues. But its simpler than browsers. I'm not saying people should abandon browsers. Not at all. My point is that the browser gets treated poorly and web standards are simply ignored. Ultimately we end up with a

It does make a couple of interesting points: 1. The cost of building an app can be calculated in the back of a napkin. The cost of a web app that works consistently across devices? Not so much. 2. The cost of building backend services has b

I'm still a bit shy when people ask about what I do. My answer is always: I fix and program computers. They don't probe anymore. To be honest, programming is not glamorous or even "cute". I find it really challenging (in

Well, that's how it starts. Then you get Uber paying people with Vans, pickups, and vehicles capable of moving lots of stuff at once to move things from town to town. And so on until there are Uber commercial trucking drivers.

Thank you for providing the list. Its more open that I would have imagined. Do the current Uber imposed car requirements still apply? (I mean the year / type of car allowed).

I wonder how the market leaders will react to this. They are essentially challenging UPS, FedEx and the USPS. Its going to be interesting. Is there a list of allowed deliverable items?

The romanticised idea of being a founder focuses on the lifestyle. Getting coffee is akin to "Let's play tennis sometime!" in other social circles. People want to be seen as founders but not a lot of them are willing or capab

Imagine for a second if this service was provided through another medium. Let's use radio for the sake of simplicity. The old design was full of information. It was akin to a common radio station talk show. Few pauses. Lots of informa

I tried this like 3 years ago. Few people would show up and ultimately it ended being like another work meeting. Everyone also reported not having improvements in their socialising. Try it out. It helps understand the limits in online inter

I've been toying with roughly the same idea for some months. I've come up with new URL schemes for JSON objects[1], and (Iot)hings[2]. They differ in what they do but the purpose is to explore how specific URL schemes could open t
