My first thought is that it potentially could have a warning system stating whether the system guaged its ability to drive as "safe", "be careful", or "hey I can't do this, you should drive." A noise or c

On a sidenote, did anyone else notice the popup that only appears once you're going to close the page? I've tried to re-create it, but it actually appears to be pretty intelligent. I was initially annoyed, since that's the

10 years or so ago, a friend and I created a person with a pretty distinctive name and started peppering him throughout obscure wikipedia articles. I just tried googling the name, this article reminding me of it, and sure enough, the name

Just a sidenote, but why do some software projects consider 0.11 higher than 0.7? I remember when jQuery did this it broke tons of plugins that used a simple numerical comparison to see if the version was high enough (which seems sensible

Good point. If anything, the number of commit lines has as much to do with the verbosity of the language as it does its popularity.

I've been having terrible stomach issues for about a year now. I went to a nutritionist who suggested a FODMAP elimination phase to try to identify the problem. Nothing seemed to help. I don't really know what to do now.

What if the time movement was in a local area of effect, and when multiple players had overlapping areas, there was a multiplier effect? That'd be cool.

Do you know much about branch prediction? It seems pretty darn interesting. I'm just curious as to how something like that would work with a path that potentially has side-effects. I don't really know how things work very well

This is definitely what you ultimately need to be comfortable doing once you're familiar with a library, but I'm skeptical that it's anything close to the right approach when you are trying to learn how to use a monolithic co

Yeah, our past experiences create walls of thought around us and make it hard to see or imagine what things are like outside them. Logic is one tool that can help us, as well as imagination. There are probably others.

This is a really fucking cool idea and I hope it works out for you. It's been my opinion for a while now that something like apprenticeship should have a higher weight in the educational experience. And $5/mo is chump change if

Fuck Uber. I've only been gouged by their app -- never Lyft. Lyft clearly warns and all the additional money goes to the drivers as an incentive. If I'm paying more than twice the cost of a cab I could wave down on the street,

Seriously, what a bunch of dorks. We had a good run. I knew for the longest time it was inevitable. The convenience factor outweighs the negligible sales tax that I would have to pay elsewhere anyway.

Completely ignoring the point that Al Gore wasn't a public official at the time, let's not forget that congress was lied to just as much as the rest of the public.

Since when is "anti-social" and "nit-picky to the point of absurdity" equivalent to "expressing critical thought"?
