It's a somewhat common trope in TV and Cinema (Independance Day comes to mind, as well as any horror movie taking place near the south, The Hills Have Eyes and Texas Chainsaw Massacre for example) to give characters that are shown as s

Ha - let's freely dispense amphetamines to all, it'll surely help the economy! Edit: We're talking about amphetamine based production being non sustainable - by comparing with tea and coffee I imagine you mean that we should

Signal protects your messages while it's on the web, on the way to your recipient. During this time, it is encrypted - but while on your or the recipients device, its plain text (as you can read it). There are many ways to get to those

While I agree with your statement, I think you might be projecting a little - this is a simple comment, kind of like saying "nothing new under the sun". Not all statements are necessarily prescriptive. This is used to keep things

You might be interesting in reading about catalysors - that's what they do. Blocking more out of exhausts would choke the engine - although I'm sure there could be better set ups.

I've recently been made aware if the corrosion problems that were discovered in French reactors in 2022 - which were alarming, and induced the shut down half their plants[0]. Even a few months ago massive cracks were discovered in one

Separately from the rest of your comment, I think you should look into how crypto was used in the trucker situation - it did not work at all, iirc a lot of money just vanished

Oh wow! Thanks for the heads up. When skimming about Toyota, I'm getting unsafe floor mats and sticky pedals as the cause of acceleration, but maybe I'm not looking hard enough. The other commenter also brought up that it's a

Don't know that it's a fallacy, it's more that the question you ask is impossible to answer - it's impossible to have a number for how many crashes were prevented. But we do have a number for crashes caused by. So we wor

Would you have a link to that? I'd be interested to look. As a side note, I've never heard of confusing the pedals as an issue for ANY car, so if Telsa's get people to confuse them enough to bring them to court, it's pro

The rate of discovery in physics is pretty slow over the years - since it's a pretty old science (I'm being very broad) I think we have a skewed view of physics research because many discoveries were simply done by sharing betwee
