   you don't have to talk about me in the 3rd person man. I'm right here. you can ask. If i pushed the accelerator instead of the brake, you can sure bet I would have done more than just "bump" the taxi in front of me. Th

   my car is a toyota innova minivan. year is either 2011 or 2012, dunno which (no, I didn't buy it for my pleasure, thankyouverymuch). i mention in another reply: i thought it was the computer's fault, and only months later did I

   indeed. I tried to recreate the scenario afterwards by pushing both the brake and acclerator at the same time (on an empty road of course). The car didn't try downshifting to compensate for my pushing the brake and it stopped the car

   fyi, services like PhantomJsCloud (mine) exist that let you avoid rendering SPA/Ajax yourself. Here's a link with all the nginx config you need to make it work: https://phantomjscloud.com/site/docs.html#advan

   i know you don't have any reason to trust me, but I own a Toyota minivan (in Thailand) and I had this unintended acceleration happen to me. I was in stop-and-go traffic, so I only ended up rear-ending a taxi at <5mph but its incred

    that's an extra 0.7% for you. For a population of 300m (about the pop of the usa) that'd be an extra 2.1m people getting cancer.

    Square, not Stripe. i just signed up and got my Stripe account approved for live transactions, and they didn't need any of this fishy stuff. just "normal" things like a bank account.

    I started web development 8 months ago. First I started by reading "The good parts" but honestly it's not really a good book to learn from 0 with. The thing that really got me going? Typescript. Not only does it help with ab

    I personally love mercurial (simpler than git), and have been a bit nervious over the last year or so with the mindshare shift to git. So hearing about this (FB all in with hg) ensures that hg won't be falling behind... at least in th

    for what it's worth, i wanted to buy your crosswords on android, but your version there is incredibly dumbed down. I finally got an old ipad a few months ago so finally bought it there.
