That's a waste of gas. Parking will still be needed as much as ever. The exception to this will be autonomous taxis, of course.

He was the chosen one , but can someone inform me of the major achievements he himself did? As far as I know, many others could have been chosen to make the historic first steps. Note: I'm not trying to make a comment phrased as a question

I feel the same way about my early 2009 Macbook Pro. One reason I love it is because I have easy access to the battery should I need to replace it, and I even have easy access to the hard drive bay.

That's pretty awesome, and it works exactly the same way in Chrome. I just modified the concept for my own use by making a custom search engine for https://www.google.com/search?btnI=lucky&q=%s+site:developer.mozilla.org+docs li

No, it's about booleans all right. Scrub through the lesson and you'll see how.

The videos for CS are brilliant. I don't think programming videos could possibly be more perfect than this. For example: http://www.khanacademy.org/cs/booleans/839898911 So you can scrub through the lesson and play and pause it, and the i

And of course, the number will be higher per-person for people who actually use Facebook, because you have to exclude those without it or without internet.

The example of the suicide attempt with fake medication causing the subject's blood pressure to drop to dangerously low levels got me thinking. If the belief that (s)he would die was almost enough to actually kill him/her, would it be possi

Oooh, this reminds me of something similar I made when I was 14 or 15. I made a program to do just this, but only with bitmaps. No Twitter Bootstrap or filepicker.io, though ;) Web interface: http://minipenguin.com/bta/ Standalone source
