5. Backup cameras. They're legally required in some jurisdictions (so I heard), and genuinely contribute to safety, but they require a screen. Once the screen is there, there's both less space for buttons and a virtual hook for fe

If you want an airliner airport with a wide selection of time and destination options, as opposed to somewhere to base your private airplane, consider starting the search around those. Look in the opposite direction than the big city it s

I'd be smart of Blizzard to fix this issue ASAP least they deter the next heavy spender from giving them large sums.

Interesting, but there's one thing I didn't get. Why does each piece need different keys?

True, but if you really never had it, that's money, not jail time.

e.g. if you knew one or two sign languages, wouldn't you list it under languages? What if the job involves in-person communication with masses of people?

Perjury laws. Once a judge has commanded you to give the same AI, you either give the same AI, or truthfully explain that you can't. Any deviation from that and everyone complicit is risking jail time, not just money. "this is the

Don't forget the part where returning the original devices takes months or years, and of course you can't download a copy of the data if you lack a backup or the backup was also seized.

I don't think that analogue watches demonstrate the continuous nature of time. They tick . That's discretizing time. Sure you can omit the seconds hand or even make it run smoothly, and some do, but that's not reflective of

I was very surprised that anyone at all would find digital displays harder to read than an old-style clock face. Learned something new just now. I'm 37 too.

The people who buy a lot of tickets are overrepresented among the winners, to the exact proportion of the size of the ticket pile.

If someone is willing to keep it going after the governments of the world no longer are, why not? If there's more than one, an auction sounds reasonable.

The ISS routinely discards thrash by placing it in returning Soyuz capsules which would otherwise return empty. I wonder if there's a market for this thrash.

My guess is that your idea is right, but the gradient is just not smooth enough.

The ISS is a microgravity lab, and allows experiments in i.e. growing crystals. That's far out of my area of expertise, but it wouldn't surprise me if it eventually yielded some application in microchips.

I definitely don't have any knowledge on the topic. Here are my crackpot opinions: 1) Maybe many or most infected have a single strain each, and a targeted vaccine to each's strain could work as a treatment, similarly to the tetan

For a whole computer stack, that's true enough. Injecting malware in a single small widely distributed program and remaining stealthy for any length of time is a lot harder if it's open source.

Whatever you'd like to accomplish, if destroying a city of millions with a nuclear bomb would give you pause, extinguishing humanity should give you more pause.

Great explanation, thanks. I'd like to add that the cost for two would be much less than twice the cost for one, due to the design reuse of all the custom equipment.

Very interesting. Could this be the full explanation for the mysterious bee hive collapse phenomenon that's been making the news for several years?

How much more would you be willing to pay for the same car if all chips in it were guaranteed to be available 50 years from now, at today's price plus inflation?

Nuclear power had huge setbacks due to environmental concerns accepted by a majority of the people. Also, the ban on supersonic flights over noise pollution.

It does look to be about double the work, which is less bad than a larger multiple, but still well worth optimizing.
