Good roof space may become a sales argument for houses in the future. Mine happens to have a huge flat roof slightly sloped to the south. I have 8 kW solar and that’s less than half the roof covered.

Jup, that’s what I meant. Your nerve cells sensing where things are as opposed to other external senses like skin touch being used to figure it out.

I've always learned that proprioception is a standalone thing, not based on the air moving over the skin etc, but really just your own nervous system telling you the position of your joints. Which together tells you where your arm is.

If you use solar power in a climate like Germany you will get that kind of math. Let's say you use 8000 kwh per year, and you have the solar capacity to create 8000 kwh per year. Assume you already have a normal home battery of ~14kwh

To have only one version of the control unit, saves money on logistics.

This car apparently doesn't have the separate temperature per area. So the button should just do nothing.

But that's not nearly clickbait enough

Indeed pretty standard, even in non-government it would be 40 hours but all other terms the same and most likely a company car + private use of it instead of the train. And I'm also sure they have a significant on-call setup of the IT

The Dutch railways said (in Dutch) themselves that it was a problem with the scheduling software which also has a role in safety. Apparently this is also used to route around for example a stopped train, so when it's not working it&#x2

How likely is it that one of AWS / GCP / Azure will deploy these? Nvidia has some relationships there for the A100 chips.

Did you read the article? They guarantee a 10 seconds manual take over time and remain responsible in those 10 seconds. That's not the same as the instant dropping the ball that Tesla, Volvo, GM etc all do.

Your "huge supersonic drone" is in reality a subsonic one, that's smaller than an F16 and flies no higher than 19,700ft while a typical airliner cruises at 35,000 to 41,000ft

But a month from now their storage will be full so they could be a lot more desperate. Full storage was one of the factors for the negative oil prices some time ago happening in the US.

It could be doing reverse lookup on the IP you connected to? That's what a lot of network monitoring tools do.

I think a lot of oil import comes from countries which don't need these practices? Saudi Arabia being an example of a place where the oil almost comes out of the ground on its own, no need for fracking.

Belarus may be at a higher risk here, the local army is weak and the political opposition was quite strong last election.

I also don't understand why they're complaining that Amazon doesn't pay for damage to the vehicles. I mean... If I hire a small business to do something for me, I wouldn't pay for their car damage or insurance either, th

It just got cheaper... It's something like $ 100 now.

The reason the big 2 do it at the same time is also that there is a very significant payment risk for any counterparty of Aeroflot at the moment. The Ruble is falling and the Swift block is making payments even harder. So I'm guessing

Nice! And very cool to see the photos and videos done with KLM.

Yes, that's the cheaper version they have on the BMW 3 and 4 series. Purely mechanical, but then also not speed dependent.

It changes how much the wheel turns, but it's subtle / intuitive so you don't notice it's there. Unless you drive the same kind of car without the option, then you notice the steering seems not as nice. It is also used b

BMW does this (it's great), and they did not remove the physical linkage to do it. It's done with a planetary gear system: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_steering

That would be quite useful for a home office. I now only have hallways / bathrooms set for automatic light because you're always moving there. Do you have a link?

What I really dislike about the "you don't own this, the cloud does" is apps changing without me having a say in it. Spotify is great, but if they decide they want a videoclip-playing-background then my phone at some random m

Indeed, nobody knows this term or rule. But looking out before opening a car door is definitely a thing. Parents also tell their children to do this.

Dutch cyclist here :-) you slow down a little, look over your shoulder to see whether there is space and move over. If there is a car at slow speed behind you they see this "look" and typically slow down or make some space as well
958.
by t0mas88 5y ago
Same here. As far as I know this isn't an official rule of any type in the Netherlands, it's just what people do because we have lots of cyclists. And every kids knows because their parents look before opening a door as well.

I don't think bombers typically fly around war zones with their ADS-B on :-)

I expect they'll gladly sign a support contract with Daniel. As a commercial SaaS vendor we received these same emails from all of the major banks / insurance companies. It's interesting to see that we got some on the Monday
