Two reasons why this works. Some of us have packed garages that we use as storage. A car that parks itself gives us more room. Secondly it's on private property and it allows people to get comfortable with self driving cars without t

This rings true for me too... in winter if I go to sleep when the sun sets I'll wake up around 12-4am and stay awake for an hour before being able to fall asleep again.

Exactly! In the same vein I find beat boxing to be interesting but I have yet to find a full length album I'd listen to. It seems the novelty wears off so quick with this form of art.

Jesus's historical existence does not mean all the miracles attributed to him are real or that all details of his story are true. The story on him was written long after he died and you make it sound like it's enough to justify e

Do we need to list the countless times they embraced something before using it to lock us all in to their own platform?

Is your time worth more that the cost of an upgrade? I'm not happy with the price but I upgraded to avoid wasting hours doing that juggling.

It's unclear what the profiles are all about. Is it for me as an individual or my company? Posting something cannot be deleted without sending an email. It's not ready for use imo....

I'm using Paypal to pay for whatever I can right now and once my account is at zero I'm never using the account ever again. You see moving my funds to my bank account was impossible and no one at paypal would explain it to me afte

I can't trust them. They have 0g of cholesterol yet it's an important part of a healthy diet. This rings of "marketing diet" to me.

You're using a throwaway in what seems to be an apparent troll. For newbie programmers out there the reason we don't use global variables willy nilly is because it is very easy to lose track of all the places where one can be acc

Whenever there is a thread about Apple development someone pipes up and says that HFS+ is horrible. Can you explain why it's so problematic? I never once thought to myself that the filesystem needed an update. Ok maybe the .DStore f
