It'd get much worse because they aren't even supposed to be flying currently.

Besides that, wouldn't they have to have patented a specific implementation? I can think of thousands of ways two implementations can differ for those features.

The fact that they haven't is baffling. before amzn had their own logistics, the hardest part of Amazon's business (free 2 day shipping) was handled completely by them. Join up with Walmart or other mega retailers (just for brand

Most cars will limp to the dealer (except BMWs but they get as much flak as teslas for the behavior). Most cars will absolutely not die while parked or turned off (I'm sure some will, but it won't be a common occurrence). Most lux

Ford would give me a loaner for regular service for my shelby gt 350. Literally 4-5 hours, and they'd let me ride around in a newer mustang GT or bullit.

It's a focus, I don't know why people expect luxury service for a 30K car. I had a shelby 350 and ford would even give me a loner while in regular service if I wanted. The tesla in the article is priced at 57k, I'd expect pre

The problem is we don't trust Boeing to develop these automated systems, considering they developed a system with enough authority to crash the plane into the ground. essentially 0 sensor redundancy (alternating between sensors is non-

I'm as confused as you are. He's doing Trump's signature move, pointing at the evidence and saying: "see, there's no evidence"

The car still worked and managed to limp to the dealer, so it's not close to the same event. C&D is stating that they had never had a car become 100% useless while parked and turned off, and that every other luxury brand had offere

They would absolutely bother writing about it. They do a ton of long term car reviews, many good, some bad, some horrible (like this one). You can search their long term car reviews, they tell it exactly as is, including any maintenance cos

If pain killers worked for your migraines, they were extremely mild migraine. OTC pain killers (and even prescribed pain killers) don't really do anything for the 3 people I know that get migraines. These people have to lay down under

My insurance paid about 60k for an angioplasty + 4 days of ICU in Mexico for a pulmonary embolism from a DVT. Granted this was in a private top of the line hospital with a US trained doctor, but still, good medicine is expensive everywhere.

As a nuclear proponent... Considering the current state of the Argentinian economy, is it wise to invest billions into extremely advanced research projects? They should focus on low immediate cost alternatives and invest that money into ind

5.7 billion people refer to it as football, 300 million refer to it as soccer. Any time you see the word football and any non American person, it's probably talking about association football.

On the server it depends. For front end servers, where you are running many connections with no shared state, AMD crushes Intel so bad it's shameful. On the backend, for things that are not highly parallelizable or memory sensitive, so

Honestly, anyone with the know how to build their own PC should. The savings are not only substantial (usually, unless you find some crazy black friday discount), you can actually spec it to what you actually need. Pre-builts usually have a

That's like saying that blizzard and oracle are competitors because they are both in the software industry. If you can't substitute the product from one company with another, then they are not competitors. In this case, if you can

Caches improve performance, Intel is banking on adding another cache layer between RAM and SSDs/HDDs. It could work very well for databases (being able to store 500GB+ indices in RAM without spending tens of thousands of dollars for RA

That's the thing about these non tech companies though. They have fixed costs per transaction, something pure tech companies don't. So tech companies can grow at a loss because their marginal cost for each customer is zero or clos

It also enables high level manager to visit stores and come back in the same day. Or visit 3 stores in two days. So those same managers are more inclined to go actually visit the stores they are in charge of. Imagine having to visit 5 or 6

More than windows it was the GUI centered developer tools and server setup. With powershell and the dotnet CLI things have improved massively. Now that we can just run on Linux I'm absolutely in love. I still use Java for some projects
