There was serious concern with some evidence a few years back that the Dropbox client was touching files in folders that weren't shared. Not sure if that is what OP's concern is. But I agree with your point, the client is only one

A lot of skepticism and negativity here, and I get that. But it's exciting to watch science play out. This could be a huge discovery, or it could be crap. I love seeing the methodology in making each test more and more definitive by re

I'm still looking for a static site generator that's as easy to use as Wordpress (so with a UI, not markdown). Anyone know of something that fits the bill?

> In general I think the space of "real life + tech juice" sort of things is a pretty under-exploited market segment. Spot on, IMO. If you haven't heard of it, Topgolf[0] is taking on this role in the driving range world.

You wouldn't even have to cause a crash. All it would take is to stage a couple of car breakdowns at key points in one or several highways. Heck, even simultaneously driving slow on all lanes with conspirators just long enough to not g

A lot of comments here seem against the "racial angle" of looking at the drug war. But the fact is that the majority of drug users are white, and the majority of the incarcerated are black. I don't think you can address eithe

My car was totaled in a near identical situation last month. And this was avoided with only automatic emergency braking... I long for the day when fully self-driving cars are the norm on roadways.

It's really surprising to me that these are big enough to be seen from space but are only now just getting recognition. Looking forward to hearing about what we can discover from these earthworks!

Working inside of a self-driving car in the future will be much different from working inside a normal car. Current vehicles are primarily designed around the driving experience. When you don't need a steering wheel, gas/brake ped

I think self-driving vehicles will make projects like this even rarer. The two benefits this project achieves are: 1. Safer travel on rails instead of trucks (accidents & environmental) 2. Faster transport between regions (saving 1 - 1.

I'm curious how much cost is added to the flight to Mars if they build a tether/rotating system on the spacecraft to simulate gravity. Seems like too much of a health risk to forgo this and spend years in micro-gravity, although r

Excellent point about one file update invalidating the bundle, totally missed that in my argument. And I like your approach in bundling by update frequency!
