It looks like something I would use, so I hope you're able to get it out there. My 2 cents - "Tuskarr supports first-class subtasks" might be a fine description on HN, but an average user won't know what that implies

Is there something special about the brakes? Less maintenance needed makes sense, but I would have thought the brakes are no different than gasoline cars?

Better than a car? Mechanized individual transportation that isn't bounded in the 2d plane. I think Elon also asked the question of what could be better than a train and threw out one possible answer: Hyperloop Sewer? It doesn't t

It's not about the seat, it's about whether or not a driver needs to be in that seat. Lower levels of autonomy need a driver to be able to step in. That is self-driving, but not driverless.

Congratulations. Reminds me of the mobile game trainyard which has a similar logical task, but your game adds some nice depth, story, humor, and art. * http://trainyard.ca/

Ah yes, I am not aware of a logic converter shield at the moment, most are in an IC or a small breakout board like the sparkfun below. I tend to avoid shields in projects as they are more expensive, take up more space, and not as flexible (

This is a legitimate complaint at the moment, but with more and more development boards going 3.3v it just means you should always have logic level converters on hand. Luckily they are readily available, quite cheap, and small

An alternative to NASA is an odd and incorrect way of describing SpaceX. NASA is a customer to SpaceX, there is no intention of being a NASA alternative. You could say they want to be an alternative/competitor to the aerospace and def

No offense, but 100% stress would mean it is not possible to feel any more stressed. To me, it brings to mind an ER surgeon or fighter pilot. Lives are on the line. 100% should be a breaking point. It sounds like you've accepted your s

At 33x annual spending you can retire today. That is already passed the 4% withdrawal rate (can take out 4% every year and never decrease the principle), which is 25x annual spending in savings/investments. http://www.mrmone
