Self-driving cars are the necessary but not sufficient condition to solve traffic problems. Start with that and remove 1-person-1-car model [0] There's no need to have self-driving cars to stop 1p1c. We've already got mass trans

‘The people who suffer most at the hands of Daesh should decide what they are called’. Also, if you read the whole article, it does explain that it's a bit more than just calling them something they don't like. I tried finding a

Short term: food and a safe place to sleep. Longer term: end the Middle East war(s), stop treating everyone who looks like they're from the Middle East like they're terrorists (or at the very least terrorist supporters).

but what are we supposed to do? How about we put the terrorists we can find in jail (after a fair trial), help the refugees who flee the conflict zone and convince the various "powers" covertly involved in the conflict to stop p

Here in Sweden, we pay about $230 per month for two kids, full time. The oldest one has after-school care, about $50 per month. Tax subsidised, of course. Of all the ways tax money can be used to create a more level playing field for the ne

IMHO there's a difference between two parties negotiating from a clean slate, adding and removing things back and forth, and someone sending out a "take or leave it" contract form with clearly no intention on modifying the te

If you modify a form letter before sending it back without notifying the other party of the changes, I'd say it's reasonable that the contract is either invalid or should be treated as unmodified.

It does, and there's apparently something in it that's not what Avahi expects, which causes Avahi to spam your syslog with "invalid packet received" maany times. And there's no option to tell avahi to shut up about

You should also include external costs to your cost of producing coal power; then is what the CO2 taxes are an attempt to do. That someone else is forced to pay to handle the effects of your pollution doesn't mean that this cost should

About the "Text-to-Speech" section there, I was really impressed with the updated Swedish "Alva" voice in OSX El Capitan: it correctly pronounces "tomten" in different ways in the first and second occurrence in

When restoring a device all apps are downloaded from the App Store, and if there's one app that's no longer available there it's not getting restored. So it's not simply "upload it all to iCloud backup"; maybe

You can get the text-only cached version here: http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:WpRJJJ-... The normal cached version still tries to download images and whatnot from the original server.

Nitpicking the submission title ("ARM7 dedicated servers for 3.40 per month"): ARM7 is actually very old ARM cores running ARMv4; these servers are ARMv7.

We use NXP MCUs that have a few different code protection modes. The mode we use in release code disables JTAG and Flash access, but allows erasing the entire Flash. This makes it hard(er?) to read and modify our code, while still allowing

The thing is, you are not allowed to talk about it. Really? Then how come I get the impression that politicians and newspapers are full of talk about the topic? Sweden currently spends half their health care budget on immigration costs.

The sad thing is that those $720 have provided no lasting value for the user; had it been spent on albums it would have been enough for 50-ish CDs that will last "forever" (at least if you rip them). Or 720 individual songs. That

It's because the script is barely a proof of concept that would need a bunch of work to be useful in the real world. But if you're feeling adventurous (sp?), have a look here: https://bitbucket.org/m_eiman/mdn
