Any suggestions for surnames with only one letter? They exist, and would still be ambiguous :)

One character names are quite common, but 3+ character names exist also, especially for ethnic minorities. This applies to given and surnames. Any 'always' cases with names are never to be trusted. https://www.kalzumeus

I'm excited by any research that brings our understanding of animals closer to that of humans. Switching from human-centric (if it doesn't match how humans do it, must not exist) to species-first analysis over the past few decad

Rent and food plan (generally required) is usually between 5-10k per year, maybe more now. Add in books, travel, and so many other expenses, and we are edging up to the 100k mark

This will probably be huge. Minecraft is still super popular, and being able to show off cool real-world footage on YouTube will fuel the fire, engaging others.

It doesn't seems to have been mentioned here that this happened over a year ago, in March 2018. I believe that the time between each crash is lengthening, even as the number of cars with AP balloons. This would speak to the regular imp

Ford is in debt 154 billion as of 2017, with an unclear path to an electric future (other than Rivian's help). I'd be more worried about them making it in the next 5 years.

The past year has had a ton of papers that center around unsupervised 'creativty'. I'd say this solidly falls into that category. Semi-related note, if you don't already watch Two Minute Papers , start now for great sum

Most cars at that speed will get significantly reduced range, due to engine inefficiency and drag. Even then, a battery with 220 mile range should still get well over 100 in reality .

It is currently manufacturered in Fremont California. Nothing in Fremont is cheap, it is no different than manufacturing in Manhattan, since employees need to pay for super high housing costs and deal with high costs of doing business. Manu

I don't think they were hoping to buy, I think they were hoping they wouldn't have to compete.

It has been 7 years since initial release. Super excited that it got an update, right when competitors are somewhat catching up. Only took them that long to almost compete.

It's also technically an initialism, not an acronym ;)

It is actually the first letters of the romanized Chinese name. 比亚迪 Bǐ Yà Dí. 'Build Your Dreams' is just good English marketing.

I've read similar articles before, and yet I still feel the need to follow all the suggestions. I floss daily and brush a little more than 2 minutes each time. Still get dental issues, but I feel like it would be worse without it. Mayb

It works when you are the founder or super passionate, if you want to. It doesn't work as an expectation for every employee.

If you are a large target many actors will be looking for your weaknesses. One bad actor will eventually find it, or just trick your employees to give them access. Companies should make a solid effort to prevent the possibility, but I'

This is a great article. Common tools/utilities should strive to be instantly understandable and consistent. Hospitals are a mess, public transit is usually unnavigable, and almost all websites have so many friction points in the name

Most people don't even know that this happened. I talk to people about it often and most don't know that there is a Tesla floating in space.

Better range, doubled charging speeds, improved braking distance... It is a real case of downloading more RAM.

Battery degredation seems to bottom out between 85-90% capacity on most cars after a lot of miles. Likely will never need a replacement. If I recall correctly, most of the lowest performers are older S and X. The 3 is expected to degrad

Charging throughput was recently bumped to 150 kW for Model 3 and a bit less for other models. It essentially halves the total time any car stays there, doubling daily capacity. A full station was already rare, this change helps keep pace a

You can easily recognize 500 words (~750 characters) within a month. Picking them up after you learn everything else becomes even harder. As a person who learned and teaches it, don't skip the characters.

Learning to recognize the characters is super important. It unlocks so many fun native resources to use as study material. Memorizing how to write characters is a waste for most learners who aren't really invested in it.
