What is the point of Autopilot? It's not self-driving. You're not supposed to let go of the steering wheel and you have to be completely alert to take over if there are problems. Isn't it easier to just not use it in the f

Isn't Engineered wood a pretty big improvement over plain wood? I'm thinking wooden I Beam joists, LVL, and OSB for sheathing.

Studded tires make a significant different in ice, and can help to get our of those ice ruts as well. I went down enough times in the ice to move to carbide studded snow tires and it helped a lot. My bike commute is a lot farther now thou

I'm in the exact same scenario. Mikrotik Router and a Ubiquiti API. I do have an older 2011, the 3011's are much faster. The 3rd party firmwares aren't as powerful as mikrotik's RouterOS, and the Mikrotik hardware is r

I had it as well at 100Mbs before Google fiber. The service itself worked great, but it had to be subsidized by taxpayers throughout its lifetime - it never broke even after the subscribers fees.

That has been tried in a few places, and I'm not sure that it has succeeded anywhere. Municipal fiber was laid where I used to live in Provo, UT and it had huge funding problems. ISPs could compete, but all the value is in the last

I think every SR-71 story I've read has been engrossing, and this one is no exception. Thanks for the link!

Wouldn't this make it pretty easy to have browser clients unknowingly participate in DoS attacks?

I don't agree about -10 C not being a big deal. On my previous bike commute my winter travel time was under 25 minutes. With the right studded snow tires I had enough control over my bike unless snow was very deep. Clothing was man

While I was figuring out winter cycling in Utah I did fall a few times on icy sections. This was never a big deal because those sections were walking and cycling paths. However, falling while riding on sections of road that I have to shar

Nissan has a different take on solving this problem by having variable compression on their new VC-T engines that were on here a few weeks ago. That approach is nice because you don't have to fill any reservoirs and can still get high

If I'm reading this right, most plug in systems currently are a third of the 20kW rating of this charger, but this wireless charger is 90% efficient. So the extra 2kW is just lost to heat? That's a lot of energy to lose - I&#x27

My experience in endurance sports is with cycling, and I have a friend that used a "ketosis" diet to help lose some weight. My understanding of the fat burning process is that it can only happen so fast, so with fat as your fuel

This is such a huge advantage for the approach. It makes it so much easier to build a query with variable filters than using SQL text.

There are plenty of shave soaps that moisturize and smell great. I've got a couple that smell great and produce a fantastic lather. I don't trust myself with a straight razor, but the DE razor works really well for me. Plus it s

I really don't understand how "3) Penetrate and Patch" is a bad idea. The argument is: > Your software and systems should be secure by design and should have been designed with flaw-handling in mind I'm not sure I wo

That's a really interesting article. It is fair to point out (which the article does as well) that the athletes were running at 75% of V02 max, which is lower than when racing in cycling. I ride a lot, and anecdotally I had a cycling

Mogreet only does short codes for MMS, though. I've been looking for a service that has MMS support for long codes/full phone numbers for a while so seeing this news today was pretty exciting for me!

I'm not sure about the carbohydrate concentration part, though. There really is a lot of Maltodextrin in Soylent which is a simple carbohydrate and pretty close to straight glucose.

For what it's worth, the Windows Phone OS for me has been great (Nokia 925). The maps will be much better on the 520 than the Firefox OS Phone, and you can download them do your device so you don't have to have internet for navig

The city has been looking to get out of the financial obligations from iProvo for a while, it'd have to end up being a really bad deal for them to say no to this.

I'm in the same boat. My insurance premium changed this year to $950 a month. We have 3 younger kids and are all healthy. I would be paying almost $12,000k a year for the privilege of being able to pay "less" after the deductible is met.

This reminds me of a topic that had come up earlier last year: Intermitten problems with 32bit programs in go. If I remember correctly programs would crash intermittently if the initial 512MB memory block requested wasn't contiguous. Doe

I wonder if the people who say to not do this have ever actually worn headphones while riding? I used to wear headphone on my commute but just found them uncomfortable so I stopped after a few weeks. I very rarely ride on MUPs (Multiple Us

I bought my commuter bike for about $550 new. I've had it for 6 years and commuted daily on it along with other 30-40 mile rides on it as transportation (not recreation). The only parts I've had to replace are the tires, brakes and chain

Even at that, branching isn't hard at all on Subversion. I know that before 1.6 it was more cumbersome, but making a branch for my work and committing a lot of small changes and then merging back when done isn't hard. There's also the bene

There is also the advantage that trading in a car to the same dealership you buy from will deduct this from the sale price of the to-be-purchased car so sales tax can be reduced to zero depending on the trade-in.
