I like the analogy of the carpenter building the form that the masons used to build the bridge. I think it is pretty accurate for today's software construction based on a lot of posts here and on other forum threads. Software programme

>All of the notorious BMW V8 twin turbo issues were related to the early design and were solved in N63TU in 2014. That's great! It sounds like the early engine had lots of problems but BMW iterated until they solved them, and ended

Thanks for the added context. It made me think. I guess I should've qualified my comment with a note about those vehicles being American-made V8s. Diesel engines tend to have higher lubrication requirements thus they have larger oil p

I've owned and driven V8 engine powered vehicles since the 1970's and have never owned one that used more than 7 qts of oil for an oil change. Most use 5 qts plus a filter. That is why oil is sold in 5 qt jugs. That's all tha

I saw this mentioned somewhere several weeks ago. I used my driving data and maintenance records and projected mileage forward two years for each vehicle and bought the amount of oil I would need to service each vehicle for two years of dri

Nice dashboard. I have built a spreadsheet that I use for tracking weather that is fairly similar to this though I only have 25 years of data that I have collected so far. All of it was collected on my property though and I am up in one of

I wonder about those first adopters and where this leaves them with future support or warranty issues. The system itself looks so different from standard panel-based rooftop solar that installers will need to have been trained to install th

That was a long two hours. 15 minutes longer than two hours actually. It was well spent overall since Gamers Nexus covered the privacy intrusions that LG has built into the OS for their smart TV line and likely all of their other smart home

A better target would be the oil and gas industry. When you look at this diamond situation it looks like in approximately one generation, demand for natural diamonds dropped low enough that the effort to mine new diamonds became uneconomica

I agree with other posters that kids need to learn critical thinking skills at an early age. I hope we don't see Texas educators trying to take the opposite side of the coin and mandating AI teachers at all (or any) levels just to try

With less legacy infrastructure to connect to and to support, solar makes sense in developing markets, especially as prices continue to decrease. This leaves the oil and gas industry with a clear disadvantage and begins to tie their surviva

Yep. If we're dependent on SF tech-bros to build useful robots we're already screwed. The Chinese robots can literally run circles around anything I've seen come out of the US. Maybe ours are not public. Don't count on t

Private actors are inevitably part of groups. Those groups need to hold the individual members accountable. That obviously doesn't work any more in SV among wealth-obsessed tech-bros. It still works in other parts of the economy though

Based on the video evidence with the eyes widening down the page I suspect that this robot can do that for you. I think if it rotated that wrist-cam around to be on top that it can even simulate flipping them off with the other hand. Legend

We can fix this by holding each other accountable. Peer pressure and community sanctions of bad actors will result in the changes we need.

Unusual. Nice concept. I ran the demo. How does it select the vehicle used in the demo? Is that something that I can change? Overall I ran it on my old workstation desktop under LibreWolf with no issues.
