I think you can reassure people by taking us how you handle and treat the data and also how you guys make money off of it.

Does this still apply to carbon fiber body planes like the 787? I know aluminum has can only be flexed so many times before it cracks but if the plane is made from a different material, would this rule still apply?

This is also a stroke system (Wubi) that's more popular and faster in China too. Maybe it's a related system to the one in Taiwan. Pinyin makes sense only if you're already familiar with the Latin alphabet and how they sound

Can anyone verify if this thing is actually built and not just some rendering? The shallows in some of their pictures don't seem right so I was wondering if those are pictures of an actual craft or just a Photoshop.

Is this a well known problem? It has never occured to me that this could happen but it makes a lot of intuitive sense. Do you know if anyone has measures this effect? Very curious how much this contributes to the Bay Area traffic problems.

My personal experience with this is that the real benefit for me with minimal shoes is that I forced myself to shorten my stride. I had to retrain myself by using a foot pod and a heart rate monitor that would beep if my cadence goes below

Wow. That's a good guess because that's pretty much what happened to me. Someone hit me turning right while I was in a crosswalk. Because drivers are so car centric, all she did was check that there were no cars coming from her le

I would be very interested in seeing those data. If you're going to cite Lieberman, I would say that he is a lot more cautious and nuanced than most articles have make him sound. He doesn't make overly generalized bold claims. Mos

Yes. In fact, after that fad it swung the other way and the Hoka shoes started becoming very popular. I will say that, however, over time I've gradually switched to less supportive shoes as I've become more experienced as a runner

That pretty much has to work, right? If your transmitter and receiver are set far apart, anything that interrupts the transmission will cue someone to an object being in between. But I wonder how practical that is.

I can't speak for the original poster but both Chinese and Russian tactics have in the past largely depended heavily on ground based guidance. This is partly the reason for or perhaps because of their planes having inferior radar or n

Not saying the hypothesis you put forward is wrong but I've heard a very convincing complementary one: Kim's goals are: 1. Survival of the Kim leadership 2. Reunification of Korea To achieve the latter (and also the prior), he nee

Yes! Actually, a lot of the older port cities were eventually bypassed because of this. For example, SF and NYC are no longer ports for shipping because rather than deal with the unions and their power, new ports such as Oakland and Newark
