Here is a list of cars that have more power than the Ferrari 488 GTB

This looks to be levelling out.

Acceleration - 10/10

"The concept's design marks a radical shift in direction for Toyota, taking the "fun-to-drive" qualities of its cars to a higher level."

It's not a particularly new thing. Lamborghini did it with the Miura at the 1965 Turin Auto show, so we're talking 50 years at least.

Certainly not.

It's legally required on all cars produced after 2007(ish). My base model Mazda 2 has it, I'm sure the BMW M4 has it too.

When I'm driving around in the boonies in a rental car at 11:30 at night, trying to find my hotel in BFE Nebraska, dimming the dash makes a huge difference in actually watching the road. It depends a lot on the dash design. My Mazda 2 doesn't need to be dimmed as the gauges are all red, and thus don't mess with night…

And?

Current cell phone charging iterations have quite a lot of heat conversion loss. Scale it up to a 20+ amp, 240V application and you'd likely have a lot of car fires. Cool tech, but not ideal for the application.

That is one of the best turning radius descriptors I've read in a while. Thank you.

I like to make up a crockpot pulled pork. Just throw a pork shoulder ($1-2 per pound) in to the crockpot with some salt and pepper (plenty, it's a big chunk of meat), set it on low in the morning and leave it there until you get home from work. Once you get home, heat up your biggest cast iron skillet, pull your pork…

Every time a gated manual is snicked into gear, an angel get it's wings. The want is strong.

It's really not horribly different than an Oil Pipelines, which carry very high positive pressures for years at a time, and those are very well understood and established. Also, the original Hyperloop paper addresses emergency considerations very well.

These are way overcooked. Scrambled eggs should be soft, not rubbery. Pull them off the heat (much) earlier and you won't have any liquid left at the bottom of your pan.

I know how that is. The worst is the completely unrelated car thought that pops up from a convoluted place in your brain, those are always fun to try and explain.

If only I could have ended it with "ran when parked."

It's the same F1 that he's crashed, and subsequently repaired, twice. He crashed it twice because he drives it all the time, on racetracks, near its limit. Worst is not a word associated with Rowan Atkinson's car ownership.

In the US, Engineer in Training is a designation stating that you've completed your general test. After that you do a multi-year mentorship including a certain amount of continuing education, and then you take your specific test for full PE certification. Like I said before, it's only really needed for safety-critical…

Don't forget your fire protection engineers. They need to take the test too. I'm personally glad I went into Metallurgy, no tests for me.
