Actually, that picture makes you believe that so many people sit on top of trains. There are crazy people all over the place. The ones in India do crazy stuff like sitting on top of a train. I have never seen that but there is a possibility

Yeah, I don't understand how this is disruptive. Except for few improvements, this sounds very much like other cars in the market. The delivery process full of rituals is a standard practise in India, so that doesn't make Renault

Traffic speed in cities is usually so bad that you will rarely if ever meet with a major accident using these cars. That doesn't mean that safety isn't important. It's just that we are not talking about 70mph American freeway

The only time I ever witnessed that was when a public transportation company employees went on strike for a month and the only transport available were trains. Otherwise I have never heard or seen anyone sitting on top of a train.

Most Indian metros already have electrified trains. Only long distance trains are still run using diesel.

Redis provides data structures to be stored inside its key-value database. It also allows you to setup hooks to listen to whenever something changes. You can potentially use it to connect client/server. Wrappers around client objects w

As a developer, I would love to have something like this. If you can make the visualization easily traversable using simple text queries, that would make it even more useful. Heck, there is value in simply being able to query your runtime d

Fair enough. There is a difference between never eating meat and being responsible in eating it. The argument here is about not eating meat at all which makes the logical argument around greenhouse gases not applicable. With respect to ethi

One could argue that the national forests and parks can be a new home for these animals if we stop messing with them. So the argument that they won't survive is a non-starter. Can these many animals survive? Probably not, but the speci

Did you miss the part about sensitive sensors? A single sensor may not be enough to classify accurately but multiple sensors measuring different things can sometimes work. Such sensor fusion has worked incredibly well for IMU's and als

It does support search through SQL like queries. You can use existing functions or implement new ones in Javascript. If you want free text search, you would be disappointed, but otherwise it is pretty decent.

They tried that and even have a Google Shopping Express subscription that was intended to complement that. It's just Google being Google and not being focused in their efforts.

Given the number of leaks coming out of intelligence agencies lately, I am not sure if this information will be safe either. I wonder how many countries will topple if their politicians bank account details leaked.

Never and always are way too strong to use lightly. I guess, at the moment, if you value more than just profits, vote for Democrats. In the future, if there is a change in Republican leadership mindset, rethink.
