This is still a local thing. The Feds don't have jurisdiction. You need to either 1) file a police report and an insurance claim, and let things play out, or 2) hire a lawyer. In either case, the Tesla has excellent dash cam video a

Mathematically that's wrong.

Again, sure technically, but it also Streisands everything about it. The cost-benefit for prosecutors and the other party isn't a slam dunk! Personally I'd absolutely do it and take the gamble. But I'm risk-thriving (hence

Technically, yes. But when the other party is breaking the law, I'd still do it. Then if the other party wants to prosecute on that, well, then discovery will become interesting and all of it will affect the other case.

No. Bessel functions are the solution to many differential equations posed in cylindrical coordinates. Legendre polynomials are what we are seeing here which are solutions to many differential equations posed in spherical coordinates. Clas

Actually it's a Fourier series (or even a Laplace transform) with a coordinate frame change - spherical instead of cartesian (another is cylindrical coordinates). Normal everyday stuff for EEs and Physicists.

Exactly! When I took inventory and supply chain course, JIT scared the shit out of me because it's was so obviously fragility.

No. Who could learn some of those as the project/product evolves in a few years.

Hopefully it's because they have morals and don't want to work for an immoral company (or any FAANG).

There's a phrase (every man I know knows it): "Life sucks and then you die" Which is in some ways a variant of Buddhism's "Life is pain". At least for men, there are always a number of times in one's life

Of course it would be trivial for an enemy to put a transmitter aboard a commercial jet that mimicked military RFI just to to spoof and cause a shoot down "by mistake" intentionally.

Nobody cares! But if it makes you happy, great. I'm sure those remaining in the UK will appreciate the choice in the long run.

So very true. Where I live, many people still rely solely on wood stoves because it's radically cheaper than the alternatives (propane, fuel oil, electricity). And when insurance companies refuse to insure their homes because of that,

It's "melting up" due to Fed QE injecting money into markets. It's NOT REAL. Just money that is increasingly becoming Monopoly money.

That's a major hit on Ford - Hertz has long been a "Ford house" and at one time (1990s) Ford owned Hertz and they were Ford's largest customer (#2 was Hewlett-Packard).

The problem with this oft trotted out theory is that: • Extraverts don't need college to network - the skill is to innate they never need an expensive excuse • Introverts won't learn to network even if put into an ideal environmen

Empirical evidence says you're wrong about that. And it's a very simple thing to prove: can you easily pay off the cost of your degree within 10 years or less? And is this generally true for most people with your degree? The ans

Some certainly know this. But easily NOT the majority. If they did know it, most people would stop getting worthless degrees or skip college! They are mostly lemmings told to run off the cliff and they gladly fulfill their personal financ

Sort of a rip-off of Aaron Clarey's books (written >10 years ago). It's specifically covered in his book "Worthless". https://www.amazon.com/Aaron-Clarey/e/B00J1ZC350%3Fref=dbs_a... https:

Yep! You have to learn how and when to KILL YOUR CHILDREN (your ideas)! I typically come up with a dozen ideas a week - most of them don't pass hurdles of basic physics or economics, or once you research "the market" you disc

They DO speak Mandarin there (and English) because Chinese-Singporeans tend to dominate and outnumber the other groups politically and demographically. Mandarian is a unique dialect of Chinese. Singaporeans also speak other dialects of Chi

Completely agree.

Plenty of this is "helicoptered/snowplowed kids" becoming adults! This is how kids crippled by bad parenting respond to the real world. We knew it would be dysfunctional but it's far beyond that.

It's all the same mistake made during the Dot Com era: "It's all free". But it's NOT free. The fixed or variable costs might be lower than typically seen before but "smaller" ≠ "zero" just like

Yes. This is why I live in a place where housing costs are so low that surface area doesn't matter. On 12 acres of land. Given the cost of marriage and divorce, it makes far more sense to live alone. I've been married twice and

This also assumes pure CO2 input. That's perhaps possible if you are collecting CO2 fresh off an engine or similar process. However if you are talking about CO2 already in the air, you have a MASSIVE amount of energy required to separ
