    They still teach Romeo and Juliet in schools, right? Couldn't their deaths have been prevented with a quick text message?

    They should be required to clean the ocean of 100x the amount of waste that was dumped in addition to a $200M fine.

    I believe this will be the first iteration of autonomous truck driving. > Then, truckers could go to work 9-5 and be home for dinner with their families every night. You seem to in…

    I'm American and I learned to drive in a stick shift. My first 13 years of driving was with a stick. But it got to a point where it was just too difficult to find a stick version o…

    Definitely a PR move. What 14 year-old is running a lemonade stand? I would guess there will be zero claims made.

    That sounds like more of a zoning issue. You can't just build an apartment somewhere because you own the land.

    Are you talking about people adjusting their clocks and their bodies to accommodate the change in time? Very few people have a big problem with that. The problems arise when accomm…

    I don't think programmers hate DST per se. I think they just hate having to write code that has to support the time change in general. If it doesn't change, it's not really differe…

    That will work until Elon Musk opens his Mars settlement. Then we will have to rename "Universal Coordinated Time" to "Earth Coordinated Time" and have separate "Planet Times".

    I suppose the cost benefit depends on whether they stay in the store charging their laptops longer because of that 10 second delay. If the customer plugs in their laptop at 1pm and…

    But the 10-key on the left-hand side is near useless. Most people who use the 10-key are trained to use it with their right hand. It's better to just get a keyboard without a 10-ke…

    "that and $3 would buy [you] a cup of coffee." That really sounds like a dick thing to say. Even if it were true (which I don't believe it is), It sucks to have someone who is in c…
