   It's not illegal to stop on a bridge or tunnel if required to not crash, surely?

   Thanks for sharing this! Much lower dv budget if you can do gravity assists, but you have the obvious downside of a 30 year mission! High risk of failure. It has to compete against landing on Titan, landing on Venus, etc.

   It's a really challenging goal. It'd take probably more delta-v than any other spacecraft launched. Oumuamua orbit wasn't characterized until after it was already heading away from the solar system, which makes the requiremen

   You could also reveal the location or number of sensors as well, which they may not want to reveal.

   It's not very useful as a technical reference. The text is so de-emphasized in comparison to the graph, it's impossible to read.

   On my car, all of these occurred frequently. It definitely is erratic with the speed, speeding up and slowing down slightly, which is annoying, but not so dangerous. The dangerous parts are driving home from work, 6 miles, at least two very

   I think the current state of Tesla's self driving is more dangerous in this respect than I am.

   The rate for me was approximately 1 emergency brake maneuver per 6 miles of driving. I doubt any of them are as bad as the Tesla system.

    Autopilot does emergency braking for nonexistent obstacles. I'm sure it's contributing to rear end collision risk. I stopped using it for this reason.

    The terms are not well defined enough in the dialog to know whether this is reasonable or not.

    Even without a rip, swimming where the surfers are is just going to get you knocked in the head by a board or yelled at.

    Mars and Venus are not tidally locked. Earth, Jupiter and Ganymede have magnetic fields, and Mars used to. Do we know that these exosolar planets don't have moons, don't have magnetic fields, and are tidally locked?

    Apparently those attestations are relatively recent in their history, but also not very convincing: https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2021/03/30/tether-takes-ste... "as noted later in the article the

    "Dana Peterson, chief economist at the Conference Board, told CNBC this week that 98% of the CEOs it surveyed are preparing for a recession, up from 95% earlier this year. She explained that Federal Reserve's interest rate hikes a

    They merely claim it is fully backed.

    If all the CEOs believe there will be a recession, and the Federal Reserve has stated that unemployment is one of their goals, it's hard to see how we're not going to have a recession that gets willed in to existence.

    It would be less racist if software engineers instead disliked Japanese things? I eat sushi, but I don't think it makes me an expert in Japanese culture. I don't think it's racist to like good food.

    I would wager that there aren't many trade secrets (I'm sure there are some) that a security guard (from the link) could bring with them.

    If your channel covers certain taboo topics it can be "demonetized" which means no revenue from Google. Those channels often have other sponsors.

    I came in to make the same point. You can reserve a small part of your crop for the experiment. This is exactly akin to how social media companies do growth hacking. Try something new out on x% of the users/crops, measure the results.

    Planet Labs captures ~30 megapixel images (usually though, these are quoted in terms of pixel size, eg. 5 meters per pixel) and has hundreds of satellites on orbit. I don't know about Digital Globe's capabilities, but they are als

    It's certainly not a habit for me, but the story is about things posted to tiktok, might as well go to the source. But besides that... many people on HN are employed at social media companies, including tiktok. It does not surprise me

    I took a look at some of the videos on the tik tok. One video in, I see the a bunch of factual claims about a relationship between the professor and one of the students (which the professor denies) with no reference to them being opinion or
