Actually a magnetically holding cable would make sense in the context of a loading station for electric cars. Some stupid guy will drive forgetting that the power cable is still attached.

I remember in movies about old times, you would arrive with your horse-powered cart at a such station, they changed the horses, and off you go. I guess this is similar. Make batteries standard shape and size, just the power may vary. After

Can you give some more insight of the project? What problem was trying to solve and why was Watson chosen? I am curious, because I got approached by a company to work on a project and when I went to do my evaluation I met the Watson team on

And let's not forget Autonomy which sold to HP for ~10bn USD. This _is_ big.

The car and the road are actually parts of a giant dynamo, I guess. Like the car having a coil and under the road a giant magnet, thus generating current in the coil. Nice idea.

This sounds like the perfect application for a MotoZ mod.

I have one single big advice: learn how to be an entrepreneur and go with this as early as possible and keep it running. Don't wait 10 years to realize that no one will ever implement your ideas. In IT times, this is similar with an et

Indeed, the brain consumes about 20-25% of the energy and dissipates around 40% of the body heat. ( I swear I need of of those [0], my head - short hair nonetheless - is sweating like hell in the night ) [0] https://www.amazon.co

But that is exactly the point: the brain draws its cognitive power from the number of inputs and not from mass. Just think of the human hand or the mimicry we can express and how many muscles and associated sensoric feeds our brain continuo

I think is a matter of semantics, not of functionality. A smartphone is a computer per design, but no one is calling it like that.

While everyone else here is proposing to try different players, I liked the idea, found at the end of the article, to certify a program for efficiency. We move our digital life on the mobile and efficiency is quite crucial. Android can show

Let me reply to this too. The lands you mentioned are excelling at other things: tourism. Normally 10-30% of the workforce serves tourism in this countries. Romania, while being a gorgeous land, full of virgin places of untouched beauty, is

I think that was the idea of the parent comment, just put anything else in the hole in the ground. Fiber is welcome :)

How is an _optical fiber_ affected by _magnets_ ?

except Romania, you land a job in IT in less than a week if you have minimal experience. The OP can confirm, he lived a considerable time there ( not sure where? Bucharest maybe? )

Some zeros are definitively missing. I know a company which paid around 1M euros to get such data ( and some software ) for just one industry.

If you are British, still EU, then Germany allows double citizenship. But, since you need 6-8 years to live in Germany until you get your citizenship, by the UK will be no longer EU, so..

Munich is becoming increasingly expensive for young, unmarried people. Or couples with kids. I don't have actual sources for data, but most of my friends are complaining. I am living in a town 80km south west of Munich and I pay for a

Actually, "Back to the Future" did a really good job. However, not sure how many of us took it seriously. Since then, many of the things predicted have come, more or less, true. I wonder, which SF movie we should pay attention to.

Sorry, didn't wanted to sound like that. Just changed the work accordingly. There was no intention of offending anyone, so bear with me.

Thanks for pointing me this out, I have a circle of people who regularly use this adjective to describe this kind of strange, never changing, routine type of activity.

It feels very ... rigid. In contrast to this, my mornings are a total chaos: kids. They obey rules if they arr funny. So I have to be funny, which means I just can't be that rigid. So we just have fun every morning, which makes my work
