It’s not too late yet, just saying. (Not my rendering).

Because people are bad at budgeting. They aren’t doing the math to see what they’re actually making.

They could put it right in front of the driver, too. And if you move it around, it’d direct the car in a similar direction.

Bad drivers have been running into the backs of street sweepers long before cars ever had “Autopilot”. I think the new rule moving forward should be if a car has a steering wheel it is your fault when your car hits something.

Welcome to the workplace you created snowflakes. You pushed to have Damore fired for expressing nothing but conservative opinions based on cited scientific studies. This is the workplace you wanted, it goes both ways.

And this is why people were fools for not defending Damore, even if they disagreed with him. Expressing opinions that someone will take offense to, will now get you fired. And there is always someone there to take offense.

I realize the scrutiny is targeting the company, but let’s remember their primary clientele are people with bad credit. Circumstances will vary as to why people wound up with low credit scores—and some percentage of low credit folk are there because they made bad decisions (as opposed to the responsible people who had…

IMO what you’ll find is that people this would aim to help will quickly turn those refurbished cars into crap at a least as often as the default rate. Some people will be helped but I think there will be such a large proportion of disheartening work it will be difficult to keep people doing it long term. 

While doing penance in summer school 1969 I was constrained by the rule that only let you miss TWO days of summer session. Having already lost one with feeling crappy, I was up against losing two to attend the 1969 Watkins Glen Can-Am/six hour FIA race. I needed to pass the classes but, hey the GLEN!!! Solution? Use…

In San Francisco, if there is a flat surface in public it is either a.) a homeless campsite b.) a public bathroom (feces not urine) c. both.

Precisely. Most of these things are there as a response to a problem that hinders the use by the most people or creates an unsanitary/destructive condition. Plus at least one thing they show is there for the protection of pedestrians, an example being the metal poles that prevent someone from driving a car into a…

After living in NYC for so long, I’m not surprise by “hostile” urban design nor offended that they exist.

I am so tired of the shaming of these installations. They’re usually put in place to address an existing safety/health or damage problem on PRIVATE PROPERTY. Even in instances where they’re used or sanctioned by the city it’s totally understandable.

Most of the images on this dumbass hashtag aren’t even geared towards…

Not going to lie, a lot of the stuff they showcase I find genius. A lot of the things they show are to reduce skateboard damage, which last I checked skateboarding isn’t a human right, and people who damage property as a result of it rarely ever pay to fix it.

Anyone bother to look at their gallery..? They are making HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE leaps to make things that either likely arent or 100% arent “hostile…

US dollars are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States of America. Not by physical things.

Of course. That said, it’s a bit different here. US legal tender is (supposed) to be backed by physical things (Gold/Silver and other precious metals). We assign in a value in relation to that. You can’t do it anymore, but you used to be able to exchange bills for their value in those. Bitcoin does not have this…

California Politician is ‘Outraged’ at Elon Musk’s ‘Terribly Insensitive’ Flamethrower Sees Way To Get Name In The Media

norway continues to whale and is the second largest taker of whales after japan.

Because the second they resort to any kind of real violence or physically effective tactics they’ll be (at least somewhat credibly by maritime law) branded as pirates, pursued and prosecuted accordingly. The whalers get to go back home and paint a sympathetic story to the only people who will ever actually have a…
