Writing about media coverage is not the same as writing about the person, obviously.

I will drive it everyday. I don’t usually drive more than 300 miles in a day.

If only electricity was ubiquitous in this country.

If this is a list of quirks, then shouldn’t there be a Doug Score?

For those who don’t know, the Suzuki Samurai sold in the US in the 1980s and early 90s was a version of the Jimny with a 4-cylinder engine instead of the 550cc 3-cylinder mandated by the Japanese kei class.

You really shouldn’t expect more, though. The cheapest 365hp Stinger is just a hair under 40k, just a few thousand more than the cheapest V8 Charger (which it is almost certainly likely to be more refined and feature-rich than), neck-and-neck with the cheapest V8 300, and a few grand less than a Taurus SHO; these are…

I think you underestimate how long and expensive it is to design and build a new plane, and the priority of airlines have in their aircrafts (hint, it’s fuel cost).

The Jones Act is terrible. It’s a major reason that Puerto Rico is bankrupt. The island could be a major shipping and trading hub, but it’s precluded from earning a living. Then what is supposed to drive its economy? Tourism alone isn’t enough.

That would actually require the SAAB to run ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

But what if the car had spun a different way and hit the pole on the other side? The only safe place to sit is smack in the middle.

The guy with the 2 stroke Saab thinks you’re stupid.

Did you know that Saddam did not originate “the mother of all...,” or are you the moron?

Ok, ok. We get it. You’re still into a thing that should’ve been over by the late 90's, you feel the FBI is out to get you & your leaders, and you’re probably sticky to the touch. But why did you have to schedule your rally the same weekend as the Juggalos?

“We are aware”.

Just got done seeing it and I honest to god feel like Aranofsky was legit trying to alienate people with this. It’s like 90 minutes of an off-putting Brechtian chamber drama followed by some of the craziest shit you’ll see in a mainstream film. Who the hell was this weird ass movie for?

Me!

I give it 5 stars out of 5.…

Brew local, buy local!

If you can, buy directly from your local craft brewer! Distribution laws are usually a goddamned mess and getting local beers on the shelves of local stores is an uphill battle at the best of times. Find a brewery local to you and go when they’re open. Chances are, you’ll meet the owner/brewer and other like-minded…

But on the other hand... Who cares?

Was about to get all mad about using discrete iterative approach. Kept reading and saw proper differential equation approach. Top job Mr. Tracy.

David, I am loving these long form engineering articles. I may only be a civil engineer but reading an in-depth article about these upcoming car technologies that goes into the actual engineering behind it all instead of just stating some facts really scratches that innate curiosity itch that engineers tend to have.
