So explain the never ending cases of batteries catching fire. This is actually a big scandal, shows that the NHTSA has an agenda and no credibility at all.

Modern direct fuel injection systems today can compress fuel at almost 30,000psi ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_rail ), so 10,000psi is nothing. Hydrogen is much safer than batteries, this is a fact.

Clicking feedback is very bad, sometimes it's instantaneous, other times it takes a couple of seconds that makes me unsure whether I actually clicked. Product pages loads fast but any other page is a lottery if it's going to load

Try using the Facebook ads and Google Adwords interface for more than one week. Those are the worst interface I've ever seen. Slow and disfunctional, every click you get a spinner, I'm surprised it went to production, using that f

If someone gives people free beer while driving out competitors or preventing potential competitors form starting a business, then it's dumping. No company should be entitled to decimate competition using dirty strategies.

People always criticize MySQL, then when asked what is the problem, they always mention the same thing about column length, which is just a default that can easily be changed and it's not even the default anymore for years.

It's very telling that a rule needs to be created to allow users to perform an otherwise obvious action. It shows that big tech don't have even the minimal amount of ethics.

Well a truly bizarre thing happened, the Mapfit staff just altered the text on their pricing box from 100,000/day to 2,500/day (Google cache confirms). Doesn't look very professional.
