I remember reading this in the physical magazine. Super interesting article around physics and harnessing the wind. Spoiler: They went almost 5x faster than the wind propelling the craft

Animals/Humans/Living things are really similar to the high level concept of computers, with countless input/output combinations which all seem to be valid.

Haven't had to do that yet. My uh-oh case is VR. I just typed 5 chars at a time in the headset and then looked at my phone. The occasional cost is worth it though, only adding ~30 seconds

A huge number of chargers (the people) ride the scooters and stack them on the one they are riding. Even if a vehicle is used, it is nowhere near the fuel consumed by all the scooter trips combined. It collects multiple and is only after se

Scooters occupy ~5% the space as a car. Dedicating 2-10% of the spots on each block/public lot to bikes/scooters should already be built in as a public service. If you've ever biked as a mode of transport, even in most US &#x

And being in public. Can't do the same to private ones because there are far less sitting in the open. People complain of them parked on the sidewalk with rows of car parking all around, or riding on the sidewalk where on the street wo

Shall we compare this to car injuries/fatalities? Wouldn't it be great if there was suitable lanes without potholes that weren't 'shared' with cars (cars don't share). Injuries are to be expected, some users wi
