This is definitely true for me. I take my car to the track, and my spare wheel/tire combos are stacked right next to where I park the car. When I take short trips around my town with my track wheels on, the TPMS light never illuminat

I don't think the poster buys a Tesla, drives it for a few months, and sends it to a junkyard. I'm pretty sure that just because the other person stops owning it, the Tesla does not stop being useful to SOMEbody.

Wow, the ability to mobilize and execute that mission on short notice, not knowing when the rains will return and resubmerge the city is awesome. I wonder if that's the closest that real archeologists will get to Indiana Jones style ad

I watch a lot of ATC videos on YouTube and these low passes happen a lot in emergency situations. The two scenarios I've seen are: 1) Pilot thinks there may be damage/malfunction and does a low pass so that the Tower/Ground

Why wait until after the acquisition? Have Twitter also announced a hiring moratorium?

They should pay for it but an independent body should be responsible for building, launching, maintaining, calibrating, etc. What we need is an incentive for the O&G companies to be squeaky clean and to rat each other out. Align the inc

Generally speaking, someone on a PIP is not eligible to move to another team, so the sole reason is to fire the person.

So wait, you're supposed to swab your throat and your nostrils now? So what's better, getting your throat spit up your nose, or getting your nose mucus in your throat?

Like the other poster said, this is the first time I've heard of it, but I've only been using for about 3.5 years. As far as I can tell from some of my automation, the outage started between 1 and 1:15pm Eastern and the outage was

My main hobby is taking my car to the race track and driving fast. Learning the line, finding a pace buddy and following each other, critiquing each others' lines. Trying out different tires, brake pads, alignment, etc. It's a

Wow. I didn't realize he had died. In early 2018, I came || this close to working for Zappos as a Cloud Architect to get them moved onto AWS. Presumably because Amazon had owned them for several years by then. I wonder what it was

Neat article, but I have a question that's kind of a tangent: what are those rose-colored lenses that the pilots have flipped down to look through the windshield of the plane in the picture?

How do you propose we vet office holders?

by joncrane 5y ago
