If you shoot a gun out your window and kill someone who jumped off the building, you are still on the hook for manslaughter. That is to say, Cruise is still on the hook, even if they didn’t hit the pedestrian in the first place.

An EV has two power systems, 12V (typically) for the car accessories, and 120V for the drive motors. And if the 12V system is down, you can’t drive the car (can’t close the contactor that connects the 120V batteries to the system). So, in t

You'll need a ton (well, probably several tons) of water. https://space.stackexchange.com/questions/1336/what-thicknes... ^^ Interesting read on this very topic.

We can certainly push more data from Mars, but the entire point of the article is that we probably won't have the bandwidth to receive it. Unless we can convince congress and NASA execs to increase the budget and get more dishes built

That doesn't imply it should be manufactured out of false need though. Companies have proven too irresponsible to let the industry continue.

If you are gay, transsexual, or a woman, (or assist one of those groups with getting medical care) that "war" is upon you now. And, this war has been foretold for decades now.

I have to be honest, it doesn't change my answer. Advertising is a multi-billion dollar industry who spends millions yearly on figuring out how to manipulate us into buying things we don't need. The average person has no chance ag

No exceptions, particularly when it comes to your operating systems. Apple does it. Canonical does it. Windows does it. Google does it (kinda a duh, I agree). Stop this madness.

It's darkly hilarious how Amazon's motto of "Disagree but Commit" was originally about leadership bowing to the data and opinions of their direct reports, and now it's a cudgel used by leadership to shut down discus

I'm not sure a bucket would be enough to cool a person down if they have no other form of heat dissipation available to them - specifically I'm not sure feet alone could dissipate heat fast enough. If the water is too cold (around

And how many bath tubs there are per-capita. Many newer homes are built with only showers. You also have to worry about power when it comes to having access to sufficient water to cool a person in the first place.

Purely my own opinion, but it shouldn't take a leader going "Hey, SA is bad, so don't do it, OK?" for someone to have the morals to 1) not SA someone and 2) report SA if they learn about it. Then again, I'm often ac

The fuck is wrong with people? Over the 9 month long winter, there's only about 200 men and 100 women, and over half of the latter express that SA is a problem. That implies that a lot of men are also going to be aware of the SA proble

Nowhere in the quoted second paragraph is there indication that the crew did not receive training. Just that permission was not granted, with no reason given in the article.
