   Collapsing and not being able to breathe sounds like something more serious than a panic attack.

   Such a massive unscrollable top bar that I had to open my browser's Dev Tools and remove it from the DOM it before reading the article.

   "Unfortunately, our site is unavailable to European Union visitors while we work with our partners to ensure your data is protected." And I'm not even in the EU (but close to it).

   "Nobody got fired for writing unit tests", and this makes it hard to justify writing less of them, especially to people that are exposed only to development side of software business.

   And yet, you'll be astonished to learn how many times each video is lossy-lossy re-encoded on its way from camera to end viewer.

   The soundtrack fits the video perfectly.

    I use "go to a vacation" as a euphemism for that.

    LIDAR works by shining a laser beam of certain wavelength. If some object completely absorbs that wavelength, there's no way LIDAR can see it.

    There is a big difference between checking every service one by one and scanning them all at once. OptOut is indeed what I needed, thank you for the idea.

    Shadyness is relative. I felt quite ashamed of having an account on some of those sites that HIBP considers "non-shady".

    If the use case is only checking YOUR OWN email address, then why not require a verification of the email before providing the results? E.g. you enter your email and get a results link sent to this same email address. Because now HIPB appea

    Where do I read about the outdoor air conditioning? This sounds somewhat viable to me, if we are talking about some semi-enclosed spaces, and there is no wind at all.

    Look at the differences in product-market fit between Model 3 and its closest equivalent/competitor, the Chevrolet Bolt. Model 3 is obviously a much better fit.

    But here we should remember what internet ads were like before the appearance of textual Google ads. They were image banners of standardized sizes, much more intrusive and way more pointless.

    Let me nitpick a bit: these characters are not Russian, they are Cyrillic. There are some Cyrillic characters that are distinctly Russian (i.e. used only in the Russian language), but these characters can't impersonate Latin letters be

    Could you please explain to a non-American what do you mean here? Sounds like something that is interesting to know :)

    My car (gasoline Euro-5) smells only when the engine is cold. Once it warms up, I can't smell anything. I guess it probably means that the catalytic converter is working as expected (it needs to be hot enough to work properly).

    In the second point, did you mean "not through the internet"?

    This is what Turkey recently did, but this has no sense in my opinion. If you want something that's happening at 8 AM to be like 7 AM, why not just do it on 7 AM?

    Would that screen hurt the front passenger in case of airbag deployment?

    I'd like to have a touchscreen "bleed area" - a border zone around screen edges that would be insensitive to touch.

    OK, let's rephrase: some percentage of people will still be ready to pay extra to be able to control the car to some extent.

    People tend to get less motion sickness when they are in control of the motion (i.e. drivers are not as susceptible to motion sickness as their passengers). So in this future world you might still be allowed to hold the steering wheel (if y
