I imagine that the drivers can't look at the wheel when they are using it, so everything has to be distinguishable by touch. This happened only the other day to Maldonado: http://www1.skysports.com/f1/news/242

I have never found it to work in visual/interactive development. A lot of the time you are working on something you evolve as you develop, try, iterate again. I can see it's benefits if you have a simpler I/O for your code.

This would only work for a while, and then, "nature would find a way". Sometimes I think no one even bothered paying attention to Jurassic Park.

They added that at the very bottom of the albeit short story. Event the BBC aren't immune to baiting. Then again would I have read a story about drunk on plane arrested?

A curried function is an implementation, a factory is a concept. I think you're being a bit over the top, a bit like the OP.

Funny that there is a link in that post back to an original earlier post on Hacker News: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7360296 Interesting the team used GWT. I would like to see a post about how they found it, and if

You would think a warning email would be worthwhile. If someone was really name squatting they would write a script to log in once a week. So if you genuinely want to release unused names an email to the person informing them would be the l

Less dense increased the chances of off street parking doesn't it? Also I don't see how the size of a parking lot changes things, if anything it means you could incentivise by having the EV slots closer to the attraction, plus hav

I could see you getting free charge or subsidised in order to ramp up interest. Could be a good incentive if you got free parking, or prime locations because you had an EV.

I live in London and this is an issue that a lot of potential EV owners. Having seen how the councils have added "club car" spaces for car rental schemes I could see them adding charge parking spaces, potentially with free electri

It's a bit like saying we wasted millions of preparing for heavy snow in the UK this year as we got none. If H1N1 or derivatives caused a serious pandemic I would much rather have some Tamiflu than not, even if it's effectiveness

I don't think H1N1 was a scam. You can argue it was exploited but not that it never existed.

Not from my experience, you normally have a thermostat, and then a boiler with a timer on it. The boilers often have temperature settings (for the boiler not the house), which allow you to set a seasonal output.

Why not power up some tesla coil on the rear of the car that produces cool electric arcs all over the track. Lets face it, some of the coolest parts of high power cars are dispersed excess energy, glowing brake discs or flaming exhausts and

Wow, someone is really pushing the boundaries of what is possible on the web and all you care about is old browser support. That's it guys, lets pack up and go back to getting CSS to center vertically.

My understanding was that Safari used JIT which is prone to security issues with how it executes that code. As to why it's safer to do so in Safar that in a webview must be because the only API to safar is from the JS/HTML/CS
