The amount of conflation between "The Web" and "HTTP" is way too high in here. "The Web" is not a protocol.

A PHEV battery is 1/10th the size of an EV battery typically giving about 50 km of range. 90% of most people's daily use is less than 50 km. We could build 10 PHEVs with the battery from one EV. This means instead of an EV cutting

Technically, ALGOL-58 lead to ALGOL-60 which led to ALGOL X (1966) then to ALGOL W (1966) and then to Pascal (1970). X and W were proposals by Nicklaus Wirth and Tony Hoare as successors to ALGOL 60.

He's an idiot who hires smart people who do great things in spite of him. He's not really an engineer. It's merely a title he probably bestowed upon himself.

A taxi driver in Vancouver had a 2004 Prius and drove it 1 million kilometres with only regular maintenance and no failures. Toyota bought it back from him and took it to Japan to study it.

The parts Matthew and Luke didn't get from Mark, but match, are considered to be from Q. There are some parts of Matthew and Luke that neither come from Mark nor Q so they each also have one or more other sources unique to themselves.

Sure, but would they all make the same error? Either there was no error or they all inherited it from another source or Matthew and Luke inherited it from Mark. There is some evidence in Matthew that it could have originally been written in

In Aramaic, the language Jesus spoke, the word for camel is gamlo (ܓܐܡܠܐ) while the word for rope is gamla (ܓܐܡܠܥ). Mixing these up would be an easy mistake to make. Matthew and Luke both took some info from Mark but also took some info fro

Yes, some aspects of Islam seem to be based on the views of the Ebionites, an early Christian sect who used a Hebrew version of Matthew (instead of Greek) and whose beliefs about Jesus (not God, didn't actually die, etc.) ended up in I

If it hasn't been used, I would suggest it hasn't been compromised. If it wasn't used for 10 years and suddenly became active, then I would suspect it has just been compromised.

China's coal plants are a temporary measure until they can get enough renewables built because they don't want to lose all the global manufacturing they do. They will shut them down as soon as they can. China knows it has a lot to

They can't switch to renewable energy fast enough to keep up with their energy needs. Those coal plants will be shut down as soon as possible. It would help if other countries moved more production out of China.

Sodium-ion batteries will be a lot less expensive once production ramps up. The cost of sodium and aluminium is a lot less than the cost of lithium and copper.

Even though the C64 (1982-08-01) hit the market about a year after the IBM PC (1981-08-12), it outsold the IBM PC series in 1983 and 1984. At the end of 1985, the IBM PC series was only slightly ahead in total unit sales. Of course, the IBM
