I wish search could be hierarchically visualized so I didn't have to page through several hundred articles of the exact same thing being reported for the exact same quotations for the exact same events. Deduplication, hierarchical

This feels like added complexity to the runtime where the long term goal appears to make Javascript into a sort of opt-in Typescript runtime. Not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing - but it certainly means added complexity. Tha

Targeted advertising isn't all that bad if it provides useful choice in an otherwise crowded market. Where I disagree with the premise is when advertising becomes predatory in a lot of ways is when it preys on psychology and emotion -

I used facebook for a brief period only because I was trying to sell some stuff on the marketplace. That being said marketplace is a crapshoot most of the time it seems so it ended up not working out. Every time I visited that cesspool of a

> So the role of the regulation will be actually to forbid certain types of contracts, that limit the right for repair, not to grant this right. That's actually what I think the title should of been. But that's my own opinion.

I wish these things were re-worded the other way. It's a sad state of affairs that a law has to be encoded to grant the people permission to do something that should be the default state. Right to repair is about targeting the manufact

Making friendships is actually easier when you are enjoying something you like to do. I recently got back into scuba diving in the last few years (used to do it a lot years ago) and I've met a number of people in the community. A lot o

Dive light? Gotta support your local dive shops buddy! The big ones I check are DiveGearExpress, LeisurePro and your local dive shops. The dive shops usually don't carry a lot of different dive light brands unfortunately so I get it.

This isn't particularly new, you could do this before so long as you designated that you were a passenger. A number of the games don't work unless it is in full screen mode - in which case it won't allow you to do so unless t

Your CV can sometimes show the whole person. As a result, side projects can give some insight into the personality a bit and generate subjective interest in addition to general “box-ticking” as it applies to the job description. Never under

I will say that I've gotten a quote for an entire conversion kit that includes a Tesla Model S battery pack, motor, controllers, custom couplers for about $20k for my Jeep Wrangler. It's obviously not going to get good range since

Certainly you can contact some of these companies to get quotes but it's so costly to convert classic vehicles that you might as well just go buy a recent electric car like a Bolt or Focus. It's mostly a cost thing. Also you need

I find it reasonable that given the warranty claims, they should be contractually obligated to provide you with the terms they have agreed upon. If they find out with new research and data that given the usage the battery will not last as l

Just buy an old Ford Electric. The range is pretty decent and you can sometimes find them for around $13k or less if you're lucky. (Perhaps rarer these days with used car prices going up) The alternative route that I've looking in

People are weird and unusual, consider how much people were rushing to get to California to find golden rocks. Money honestly makes no sense at all to me.

I think it’s entirely possible that they simply don’t have the necessary scale. As far as I can tell the only remaining competitors are Intel and Tesla given that both MobileEye and Tesla have actively accumulating real world data.
