> I think it's completely reasonable if we tell people that their Sur-Ron is for private property use only. Anywhere an ORV can be legally used. That's not just private property.

Ultimately the reason cold water drownings are survivable is because the lower temperature decreases the speed of chemical reactions. If chemical reactions are happening (e.g.) 10x slower, then the amount of damage that occurs 10 minutes af

On the other hand horse employment has taken a significant dive from the pre-electrification era.

I think it's primarily for designing chemical processing systems, though I know it through the pipe layout software being used off-label to design vehicle electrical harnesses.

FYI there is already a product with a very similar name, CADEM.

Just after takeoff is the worst time to have a problem. Hopefully they had the minimum crew. Also hopefully it wasn't carrying a nuke and/or it wasn't compromised.

Having four wheel motors solves any issues that compromise a single unit, but I don't think they've answered how they would mitigate potential system issues that might bring them all down at once.

I don't think anyone expects Ford to directly pay owners for warranty work and just send them the instructions to do it. The issue is whether a bonded and insured independent mechanic can be paid out for the warranty work.

It sounds wrong. It's okay for it's placement to be off by thousands of times it's size?

It doesn't have a nuclear reactor, it has two dozen natural gas turbines.

YASA claims their integrated brake/wheel motor is lighter than comparable (supercar) disc brake systems.

Though (at least to my knowledge) Zuckerberg doesn't have a history of abusing his authority to make deals that advantage other companies he owns at the expense of Facebook. E.g. SpaceX buying up large numbers of Cybertrucks Tesla coul

Probably because there is no plan to develop a commercial plane.

Yeah it's bad when it's abused, so don't abuse it. But not having operator overloading when dealing with vectors is maddening.

It's Starship that's supposed to do the landing on the moon. If the next few test flights don't go well it won't be ready for Artemis III next year.

You've mixed up the ship and booster.

As long as capital doesn't get involved in some kind of highly financialized spiral getting further and further divorced from the real economy, we should be good.

They're available. Though you probably shouldn't invest to heavily in gen1 (production) sodium-ion batteries. It's looking like they'll be obsolete pretty quick. https://battery-tech.net/battery-markets-n

Yeah, a van is the real sport utility vehicle. And yeah, people hugely misunderstand needing 4WD. If you aren't off-roading it's not doing much for you.

This is something that could be demonstrated rather than just argued. Train an LLM only on texts dated prior to Newton and see if it can create calculus, derrive the equations of motion, etc. If you ask it about the nature of light and it d

Ford has had a similar design (sharing patents with Toyota) since the first Escape Hybrid in '04. But they never stuck with a high mpg platform, they're using it to build 34mpg small trucks and SUVs, not 60mpg cars.

Yeah, a better comparison than the smartphone would be something like a table saw. You don't assume everyone has one, but it's not very unusual to have one in the garage.

I feel like this should really be something people should lose their license over. By deeming something not medically necessary they are (in my opinion) effectively practicing medicine. If they aren't qualified to practice that speci
