It’s in the middle of a very wealthy neighborhood filled with people who can’t/won’t ever put their phones down because they believe themselves to be very important. It’s as if they built a race course between Brentwood and Beverly Hills.

Not too sure, but whatever it is, I like it.

It can be the Brazilian Endurance Championship or a São Paulo State “Força Livre” Championship, where the concept of “classes” is quite wide and things from Radicals to TCR to GT3 and GT4 and old Brazilian Stock Cars race side to side with Mercedes CLA/C Classes, homegrown prototypes like the Metalmoro cars from…

At least no one was hurt, so there wasn’t a need for a May Day.

They weren’t able to pull it a way from the Jaws of defeat.

Not really. The towers left should be safe. The absolutely most dangerous part, and difficult part, to safely take down has fallen. From the pics I’ve seen, all of it.

It's hardly something you can use any old Knick-Knack you've got lying around for.

If they want to raise some funds for the remaining science going on there, let people buy little pieces of the Gregorian Dome. Create some jobs for some locals to cut, package and ship them to people.

Radio astronomy sounds like an Odd Job to me. 

Well you could find that version of the story on really any other website talking about this. You just happen to be reading it on site whose main focus is videos games and other pop culture which undeniably non-science community people are most likely to know this from...so you know.

Forty seconds when you’re going well over 100MPH isn’t much time.  100 MPH = 146 feet/sec.  

“Autopilot caps you to within 5 of the speed limit”
Thank you for this. I couldn’t imagine that AP would allow that rate of speed.

Am I missing something or does the article not really have anything to do with the crash? Yes L2 systems should be avoided for this exact reason, but in this particular case, AP is not involved at all and the driver had 40 seconds to react and not deliberately accelerate to well over 100mph. Autopilot caps you to…

tomato, potato

You sure you don’t mean a U-Pick gift card and rust accelerator?

Love how this site has lost so many staffers that a huge chunk of the “staffers” contributing to this roast aren’t even current members of staff.

Yeah, a lot of staple writers are moving on since the shake up.
I don’t blame them, and I hope this place retains the spirit, but it is hard to look forward to good when you see the talent jumping ship.
It is getting hard to keep track of where everyone ends up but at least I still see Andrew’s insta.

Will the last blogger out the door turn off the lights?

“I wish I had a chimp sidekick or something.”

“Just a wandering stranger, with a truck and a ridiculous Chinese old-man’s microcar, not looking for trouble, but somehow always finding it.”

So are you David Carradine’s Kwai Chang Kaine wandering the American West or are you The Hulk? Either way I’m all for it!
