  4. Here's an idea to cut down on requests on Chrome Now Reloads Pages 28% Faster (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Add the ability to put an ETag in the HTML document along side the resources, so the browser doesn't have to make a conditional "if-none-match" request to check if it is stale.

    You should let this guy and this guy that their research is wrong. Traffic is the leading cause of road deterioration, if you don't take poor construction quality into account.

  15. Re:An inefficient gasoline burning generator on World's First 'Solar Panel Road' Opens In France (theverge.com) · · Score: 2

    A road without piezoelectric power generation converts gasoline into heat instead of heat and electricity.
    All road surfaces flex when they're driven over. The flexing is what causes damage.
    Perhaps if some of the energy that went in to damaging the road was taken away in the form of electricity, the road surface would last longer.
