Could one imagine a material that would absorb solar spectrum and emit the preferred frequencies? Something like a polymer one could stretch over fields to get more from the suns rays.

Can it read windows symbol files (pdb)? I understood they are complex and undocumented.

In my BMW i3 I hardly ever use the brake pedal. But releasing the "go" pedal all the way seems to add braking to the regen. I know because my brakes are noisy at the moment.

How about the teacher can't correct the students posture, grip etc? Not to mention they can't play together without lag.

Job seekers have some competitive salary information though : if they can obtain multiple offers, or the salary is advertised.

In a simplistic free market model, both employer and employee aim to optimize their gain. The employer sets their wages only as high as necessary to attract, motivate and retain, and hires whoever provides the most value over that cost. Wag

I am not able to fully pick up on emotional cues without video. There is a reason we use facial expressions when talking in person. For a technical discussion it doesn't matter - for a personal connection it does. Another advantage of

The author makes it sound like a warning label is missing from the C++ tin. Maybe. But what tool should he have used? I haven't seen this code but is there any doubt it would look just as bad in Java or Python, maybe with fewer segfaul

In my case switching to a keyboard with each hand at an angle (Microsoft Natural Keyboard) changed my life as the pain went away like a switch.

Or just make the task smaller and smaller. Can’t finish 5? Do 1! Too much? Just get on the floor and hold the position. This strategy can’t fail, as you can always reduce your goal (and next time have to reduce it less)

Yet billions of years in, until we arrived, there was no failure to be sustainable. We're the first species to potentially cause a global extinction event (arguably we already did)

This was done as you probably know [1] but it's not clear that the road surface is a good place for solar panels. They get dirty and damaged. It's certainly orthogonal to charging vehicles on the road, given we know how to transmi

The idea is predicated on autonomous control and presumably the vehicles communicate in real time...they all brake together at the delta V of the least capable member.
