Trucks operating in fleet on the same route are called "the railway". That's what that your driverless fixed route trucks will have to compete with.

Yes but they are usually really small. Like a village with 20 person permanent population small. Get it to 50 and a tiny shop will spring up.

They still have all kinds of incomes, nothing that Lidl-like discounter grocery store could not use. I attribute this to bad urban planning where these poor districts are kept small, too sparse and isolated, and shops are actively zoned out

You do not have to have food deserts, that's self-inflicted. If you are working multiple jobs, at least you should afford to live somewhere near. If you work multiple jobs and is forced to live very very far away/in ghetto, then y

I believe this is an unique US situation where you are unable to scale down Walmart. Just make a Walmart Lite with no jeans or TVs but only food. Then these can be built practically everywhere, offering the same competitive prices. There ar

I'm just not sure how you get these problems unironically. What's so hard about having a grocery store and reliable transit to downtown? The notorious St. Petersburg's Murino district is located outside city's boundary b

They also have second book miniseries so definitely worth a look!

I was thinking more of tectonically active ice giants with large oceans under the ice shield. To explore space, you will have to drill your way out first.

Maybe the actual sentient life in universe lives deep within those rogue worlds. It is also trivial for them to hop worlds - either wait for a flyby or put nuclear reactor on a blob of ices and drive away. They use stars as beacons and can&

We have three Dunes at this point, suggesting the attention may be shifted somewhere else. Hyperion, anyone? Or perhaps some Vernor Vinge? You could also obvious film Barrayar space opera. So surprising why it was never done. It's so

I can read a novel idea, get excited by it, remember it and return to it later without being convinced.

If you are an ordinary person, this is the way to go. You are not in business of evaluating arguments. You need to live your life and for that accept the most reasonable view on everything, verified by your peers. However, if you have a sho

Maybe the matter is still spread smoothly across the whole cosmos, but the observable universe is tiny enough so that it is not completely smooth and some we see some local artifacts, which would have been smoothed out / insignificant

Google Translate is thoroughly confused by Russian word order Title verb Name . Of course it was the Old Man who shot him. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kurochka_Ryaba

Вот плачут дед и баба, но напрасно - Всё предначертано, яйцо должно разбиться. Зло порождает зло в наш век ужасный. Ты хочешь знать, чем эта сказка завершится? Старуху ту Раскольников зарубит, И не со зла, причём,

But hey, The Guardian does not see any reason to not be ignorant: > The declaration of Republika Srpska in January 1992 triggered a civil war and a campaign of ethnic cleansing of Muslims and Croats, in which 100,000 people died.

We cannot describe the thing you are referring to. We are quite poor at contemplating "massively complex distributed interactions". It's all noise to us.

Yesterday I learned that Bosnian 1992 independence referendum where a second largest community has refused to participate and the remaining ones are told to have voted 99.7% "Yes" is considered democratic. Of course that plunged t

I would not overstate their complexity. State economy is different from your household budget but its understanding is well within the abilities of an average college graduate. The problem is that most of economy experts are in fact snake o

When run unchecked, capital will happily suck all the money from the economy and into its coffers, and the fun thing is, it has no idea what to do next. Next it would very likely invest these money in the worst possible way and cause a big

But does it beat curl? The main sellong point of bash is git and curl nowdays. Developer tools can craft curl invocations for web requests. Can they do powershell snippets? UPD: I've just checked it and yes - Chromium developer tools

PowerShell was a fundamentally new thing 15 years ago, years pass and I still use zsh and have no desire or motivation to use PowerShell. It is no longer hyped but also never got a killer app, so it is stuck at "exists" phase.

It is likely that it does not exists, otherwise we will be seeing these nucleotides in earth crust.

In Russia they have passed a law some time ago that you can never post dead children faces in any mass media (so they pixelate or draw over). I was thinking that it is most stupid law, but now I don't. Oh boy how right these lawmakers

I wonder if you do not have more interesting things to see in Paris than crude Space Invader pixel art. That would be really neat if it was all over Chelyabinsk or Sao Paolo, or maybe some derelict US suburbia. But Paris? Come on! Same thin
