The only figure I found in the article is Elon “was responsible for more than 2,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions.” Is there a compilation of emissions comparing across private jet owners, commercial aviation and perhaps other industri

I don’t understand why you’re mentioning your perception and opinion that people in Korea have 0 concerns about theft. And thus it somehow absolves Hyundai. I suspect this was a money saving decision on Hyundai and Kia. Immobilizers were st

I've known about Basecamp since the 37signals days. Those billboards are a disservice to the product. It doesn't hook or command anyone to find out what Basecamp is. Also why billboards all over Boston? If your a project managemen

I loathe Jenkins and it’s Jenkinsfile, and the older XML or GUI configuration for their plug-ins. So I do everything in gradle and have jenkins run gradle commands. Just to share: there is value in the ability to run the build on any develo
