Let’s say an employee working for Bank A developed software there. Left Bank A to work for Bank B. Brought his software with him. Bank B has had to spend less money to develop that software and is more profitable had their employee not st

If I get Level-5 driving, so I really care how it was achieved? In order to get Level-5 driving, the car must be able to identify a construction worker directing traffic, versus a random homeless guy, drunk, and directing traffic into to c

I’m working on a way to design free standing domes using mortar-less bricks. The idea is to build a cut-list for each brick, such that when stacked, there are no gaps, and the entire thing is held in place with just gravity (maybe the firs

Suppose we spend $20B to discover that the standard model remains intact. Then, physicists request $100B for the next supercollider, only to discover that the standard model remains intact. At what point does a society say “no” to future re

Does this mean that the cops can’t camp out in a bar’s parking lot at 2am, watching drunks walk to their cars? Seems like they’re predicting that bar parking lots routinely have drunk drivers at 2am.... If a resident gets a drunk driving t
