Couldn't you just make smaller trains that fit in the same tunnels? Sure tons of cost for R&D but just because the tunnels are smaller doesn't mean they could only be used for cars in the long term.

ACLU has written and refined very good rules for proper bodycam use that protects both citizen and police officer privacy. It's not that black and white but it's not that complex of an issue either. Act - https://www.ac

No thank you. My salary is private. I do not want my family and friends to know how much I make. I also have never told a potential employer my salary. I believe it stopped things from going on to the interview stage but the way they took m

I'm surprised to see so many people saying they will miss TouchID. I still find the idea ridiculous compared to a much more secure PIN. But I'm still using a Galaxy S3 so I'm not in the target demographic for sexy new phones.

Not all apps are like that. For instance Sago Mini makes amazing apps that do not use addiction techniques to hook you. They are just fun and let your explore however you want. https://sagomini.com/apps/ I completely a

Educational TV has come so far too! Daniel Tiger is amazing at teaching social skills compared to any show available in the 90s. From research it seems the biggest issue with kids watching TV is just that it takes time away from other forms

I know some people strongly disagree but my toddler learns tons from her tablet. She has Amazon Freetime and can pick and choose whatever apps she wants to play (we can remove apps and control what age range is available). The apps on it ha

So along that line of thinking, everyone knows the McDonalds is there so there's no reason for McDonalds to ever pay for advertising.

Kinda seems like putting the cart before the horse though. Despite what the mountain of "Autonomous vehicles are around the corner" PR articles say there's still a lot of problems to be worked out before we see any fully auto

So it says here you've worked with pipes in large commercial buildings and small residential buildings. But this position is primarily for pipes in park bathrooms. Do you have any experience with that type of pipe?

The problem here is the that person thinks they are talking to a technical person when they are actually talking to a non-technical recruiter. IMO the recruiter should have basic understanding of the technologies they are recruiting for. Bu

Just because something does social harm doesn't mean it should be illegal. I think alcohol is a great example of this because we made it illegal and saw that the consequences of it being illegal were far worst than the consequences of

I get what you are saying. A lot of media has been "oh this was fine" under Obama but "oh no this is horrible under Trump". The TPP is an interesting example given a lot of liberal media was very against it until it beca

If you work in IT use something like PagerDuty or OpsGenie and set it to harass you until you acknowledge. Then you don't need to worry about missing something. Automate all the things. Seriously only way to manage complex systems with

I'm not familiar with modern VFX software. But couldn't you just take a snapshot of the server and then load that onto a box in the future if you wanted to re-render it?

But Cook is wrong in saying "the jobs aren't coming back". The situation has been rapidly changing because of automation. Imagine if a clothing company could have new product responding to trends available in a week. Nintendo
