The fastest a car, with suspension for cornering, can go on the highest banked part of the track is 240 km/h. A Boeing 747 takes off at 260+ km/h.
So the banking would have to be increased to prevent possible tipping but approaching a runway on a bank, or taking off, seems like it would have serious stall issues.
A non banked runway could avoid this but what kind of suspension would an aircraft need (could it be done with a tricycle?) to handle the amount the aircraft would want to roll. Plus on approach, you would have to slew with the rudder, at those speeds is there enough force from the air to keep the aircraft from sliding sideways or would you have to slew twice as much as the runway angle or more so the engines would be driving the turn?
I would say Mint as well for a basic user. If you plan on needing some more advanced software over time, I've found Ubuntu to be a good balance between simplicity to start and easy compatibility with more advanced software (I'm developing Intel Fortran, OpenMP and FFTW for a college project and Ubuntu seemed to be the easiest intersection of the packages). But with no need beyond the basics, Mint works nicely.
The government may be crooked and bloated but if we don't pay for the government, those bitcoins would be worthless in the US anyway. This is the land of the free, as in the people are free to do as they wish (in theory) as long as it doesn't effect anyone else. Not a place where the land, or any other property, is free of any obligation.
For the most part, avatar did 3d right. They only had something jump out of the screen a couple times. Avatar as a movie just felt like Mass Effect 3 to me in a way, good concept and good parts but if it had just been done right...
1. Meh, saw Avatar in 3D, 3D wasn't bad but I will not pay the premium for 3D again... should not have paid the price in general for Avatar. 2. Very nice, though at the same time there have been significant home theater picture and sound. 3. Meh, don't think any of the local theaters ever installed this. 4. Ebbeh! This innovation leads to more Netflix. 5. Meh, I've never purchased tickets online, if the theater is so packed I need to, I don't really want to be there.
Though to me, a Matrix sequel/reboot/whatever is a major risk with the amount of effort to get it right. Though I don't think this is the kind of risk Hollywood cares about.
The story makes me wonder a little if there was a mistake in the safety lockouts or general software if the machine that killed her was never supposed to work in the area she was in. However I agree most problems are with not following safety procedures. Stating someone has worked safely on certain machines for years says nothing about how safe they are working with them. Someone can cross busy roads not on a crosswalk many times before getting run over.
Just sometimes though. My company in the US only requires me to be on site for in person meetings (not all require being in person). The rest of the time, it doesn't matter where I work, so long as the work gets done.
Haven't had much issue with that. The spam mail shows up after I give my address to companies like Bath Fitters, who seem far less reputable in my experience. They turned out to me a massive waste of time. YMMV.
Shouldn't have provided your e-mail to them if you don't want them to use it. Plus most of these stores seem to honor a remove from list request. Yeah having to opt out, rather than opt in is painful but this still differentiates from real spam.
I haven't seen many that are very good at that. Providing prototypes and asking how it should really be done doesn't seem to result very well. I get much better feedback from clients when I ask them, you haven't said what the software should do under these conditions. So most of the time is spent finding the gaps in the specification for them and ask how to fill it in, rather than giving them the prototype and asking how to improve.
Yeah, this is why I said the AI is not replacing my job. My job isn't writing code most of the day, most of my job is taking the specification I was provided, talking to the people who provided it, and turning it into something that wont collapse under its own weight
C was invented as portable assembly IIRC. If you cant sort out a buffer overflow then dont call yourself a programmer.
Real programmers see their job as making the computers job easy, not the other way around.
And one way a real programmer makes the computers job easy is making sure there code is as easy to work with for those who make updates after they are gone.
I'm pretty sure news cameras already do a pretty good job on this topic. Most people at protests seems to want to get their face on camera as much as possible.
Slashdot Mirror
But I stated it incorrectly, thanks for the corrections...
I was talking the top speed without any steering input. Any faster than that and the suspension has to start working in the turn.
I could be doing my math wrong but the Nardo Ring is about 4KM in diameter https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...?

So your best defense of NASA's budget is that we also waste money on other things that are even stupider?
Sure, NASA budget needs fixed. Before projects throwing, what, two orders of magnitude more money away?

But you can't see all the continents at the same time to compare them on a globe... and measuring is far too complicated.

Amusing list of innovations though.

Most of the young people that get hired where I work (a contract house) were first co-ops, as well as for a majority of our customers.

Not to mention it seems like any Windows app takes forever just to load.
I'm doing just fine on ~3k a month after expenses myself. Can't really sympathize.
Yep, and a majority of the time the result is the customer saying this isn't what they wanted.

Recategorized as force of nature...

And yet Walmart doesn't seem to have a problem finding employees.
The Border guard was just being sure the guy wasn't trying to sneak any climate data into the US
I'm pretty sure that was an executive order...
