I wonder if the secret is Musk not creating a huge layer of bureaucracy above engineering on top of a decent amount of funding, so they can really accomplish things.
Na, he just makes a randomly selected engineer ride up with every Falcon 9 first stage booster. Half of the engineers are hoping they get picked, the other half are scared shitless, but they all give 110%.
I have to clear the lens of my backup camera of road salt residue once or twice a week at this time of year where I live, otherwise everything looks like a big whitewashed blur.
It should never be lawful to go through a red light. Especially now that technology exists to make the lights green for the emergency vehicles. I've almost been involved in an accident twice where a police cruiser was going so fast through town that I barely was able to react before he blasted through the light that was green for me. Due to buildings and other obstructions, I had like 1-2 seconds tops to slam on my brakes to avoid a high speed collision right in the middle of the city. And guess who would have been at fault?
But honestly, the types of jobs where this is implemented probably are exactly the kinds of jobs that are going to be automated away before too long. Kind of screwed either way.
The common sense aspect goes out the window once the bean counters get control.
Of course, if unfettered control were given to the engineers, a phone would probably weight 6 pounds and the battery would last for several months, so it's really a lose-lose situation.
Me too. Clearing like 8 kb of bitmap RAM with a BASIC loop and POKE command was a joke. After I saw how fast you could do it with assembly language, I was hooked.
I think you're mixing your metaphors. Maybe he's burning a bridge, bearing a cross, or grinding an axe.... but I'm pretty sure he's not burning a cross.
What about the pre-owned market? A lot of people buy used BMW's because they like the cars and it's a way to own one without selling an extra body part.
T-Mobile asks the FCC to re-examine the proposal because it "will be challenging for Administrators, the Commission, and licensees to manage". In other words, hey guys, do you realize how much fucking work this is going to be for you? Are you sure you don't want to see it our way?

It says they are probably going to pass a law to resolve the issue. Maybe this is just a preemptive strike.
It's not needed right now. I generally only use a pencil or pen to sign my name or, increasingly rarely, fill out a paper form.

I advise a bit of patience before reacting strongly to this.
You're absolutely right. I'm taking my strong reaction over to reddit.

I'd rather trade in gold pressed latinum, since it can actually be exchanged for a different currency.
The plan is to avoid black holes.
and here we are.
I made a fair amount of money on that game. Monopoly money, of course. Parlayed the over with an Eagles win.

Yup, always under promise, over deliver. I mean over promise, under deliver. Or... fuck, just say whatever gets them to write the check.

So, punishing success will save capitalism? Removing the incentive to succeed will simply encourage people to... well, not succeed.

Or, they could just... you know, charge people who get in more accidents higher premiums. Just a thought.

Theoretically they should have no reason to pull you over, other than something like a burned out tail light.

Big 'A' little 'i'.
Unlikely. Even Walmart pays $11/hr to start.
We need to buy a Senator.
Are you referring to the artist formerly known as Prince?

I think the carriers wanted people listening to streaming services using their data plans.
