The law makes sense, the details where things don't make sense

Not really because houses and business have different physical needs that are hard to retrofit after the building is designed. Zoning limits what your neighbors can do, building design limits what you can do.

Depends. The more niche you're interest the larger you need in general. Everyone needs food so you only need about 1000 to get those basics. Though at that size you are making as monthly trip to the big city where they have better sele

You risk that someone wants to make an example of you. You might run for mayor and your past is dig up and exaggerated

They use Bluetooth to configure WiFi. Most people call that Bluetooth, but technically you are correct.

3g was turned off long ago, 2g is now disappearing worldwide. I decline to speculate how how long they will keep that theoretical 4g active as devices using it disappear

I have regularly taken two-day trips in the US because the cost of an airplane for 5 is much more than the cost of my car even including hotel rooms. Lately I've been taking Amtrak, which is a little bit cheaper, but it's still an

There are certainly more trees where I lived than there were a hundred years ago, but there are also more trees than there would have been a thousand years ago. I live in an area that should be natural prairie and humans have planted a lot

People want to live with their services and things to do. There's a reason why developers are building suburbs around all the existing cities, but they're not going to middle and nowhere places to build suburbs. Even the land woul

That is not how Europe is actually built though. You'll see those four to five stories with shops retail on the ground floor and then the others above on the main street. However, if you get off the track and go behind those streets, y

The world is producing far, far more food than we need, though, so your worry is not realistic.

Very few people are willing to accept a, "sane global environmental policy" if it means changing their lifestyle. Thus, anything that allows people to keep (or better yet, improve) their current lifestyle while making the environm

What do you mean by farmers? Of the rich farmers, yes, most do have a second job, but the farming does pay most of their income. It's not just a hobby. The second job is something that they can do in between the farm work. The other th

But your high-speed train enables a lot of things that are not really feasible to do on an airplane. speed train enables a lot of things that are not really feasible to do on an airplane. You should be thinking about a train for things wher

by bluGill 2mo ago
A large advantage of the train is all the places on the way. I don't actually want to get from New York to Los Angeles. However, I live in the middle of the country between the two cities and by stopping near me, I could get on that tr

The US rarely builds new highways anymore though. They expand existing ones a lot, but it is rarely a new build. Where they are built, it's on the edge of town where the entire farm was sold to a developer who specifically reserves som

Nobody who had looked at it believes that. Even the well known critics admit it is energy positive. The ratio isn't very good, but it is energy positive.

Normally you can use Android Auto on an Android AutoMorph head unit, however that's not required. GM regularly disables Android Auto on all their head units even though it's included in the base Android automotive OS. I have such

That's true for most cars, but some, particularly the older cars, they weren't as concerned about security as they should have been. And so sometimes the radio can talk to things that it probably shouldn't be able to talk to.

How long until the 4G networks are turned off? There are a lot of cars that have a 3G sim or even a 2G sim. They can do nothing because those networks have been turned off. At least I'm not aware of any car where they updated the radio

by bluGill 2mo ago
It's a good idea actually, but it's also really complex to get right. Early version of Android Auto could transfer over USB 2.0 instead of Bluetooth, which works, but it's not near as high bandwidth.

there is the problem. We don't know what country is in question. There are some countries where the truth is not a defense against libel. Thus, depending on where the author is from, or for that matter the publisher or other people who

Sometimes the biggest impact you can make is just changing the spelling of T-E-H to T-H-E on a very visible page. Hopefully that's not a staff level problem in your company. I get your point. Staff levl engineers should be working on r

You can get to be a staff level engineer doing that. However, beware that to really make it up the corporate ladder, you actually have to reject that. Note that I didn't say reject doing the things assigned. I mean reject it as in you

Oil has its own infrastructure. That infrastructure is producing things for airplanes almost as a byproduct. Both of the oil we pump from the ground goes to cars. If cars switch from using oil, that's going to raise the cost for everyt

One more reason cars should not be internet connected. They last for decades and manufactures don't want to support their cars that long. Always proxy to a phone and the attack surface is limited to things that are updated.

It is unfortunately that the choices didn't have counter China in the list. It was status quo or trump. I wasn't happy with either option there.

It's okay, but it would be a whole lot better without the constant laughter over things that aren't even funny. Makes it really hard to follow what's actually going on. I mean, I understand a laughter when someone says/d

You assume there is one. My 'local' covers high school sports, road construction, but none of the important issues that I need to care about to be an informed voter. I need someone to be at the library board meeting, school board

Remember in 1990 (the pictures are from around then) there wasn't unlimited fast disk space. There was a good chance you were saving to a floppy disk which not only was slow, but might not be in the drive all the time. At least in 199
