    They mention this in the article, and say there is very little evidence of this being common in ancient Rome.

    How do you think the hydrogen is produced? Currently it's either a product of petroleum or produced by using electricity to split water. So your argument of electricity not inheren…

    My understanding is that it's just talking about the pumps. 95% of the energy from the battery is turned into rotational energy by a motor in the pumps. This pushes the fuel into t…

    My guess is that the vanes on the top do something to disrupt the wind and stop it from reaching street level at such high speeds. The vines growing between the vanes could prevent…

    Since we are discussing Tesla solar roofs, they suggest your installation comes with a PowerWall, thereby storing power during the day to use at night. I personally don't think we …

    That was a great read, thanks for providing it! It's interesting that they mention studies in mice about using radiation to cure cancer. Sounds like the beginnings of the discovery…

    It's a trade off. In my opinion when using rebase you don't lose history or make it inaccurate. A bug would still be introduced by the commit that made it, so tracking down bugs wi…

    The boosters were actually parachuted back down to earth and reused. Though the general consensus is that it didn't save any money, and may have been more expensive than if they ha…

    Did you really? The fifth paragraph defines it: "The chronically homeless, on the other hand, are a subset of the homeless population that is often the most vulnerable. These are p…

    I can sorta understand how he got there. Historically, making a car company is very, very hard. It's a tough industry to crack into. So when you see a startup car company with a hu…

    That's a bold assumption about his accidents being his fault. Maybe he was rear ended at a light when fully stopped. And even if he was going slower than traffic, it's still the ot…

    It's common for cards to have a roughly $99 yearly fee that gives you nothing other than the ability to have the card. It's a stretch, but I don't think it's dishonest to say the c…

    Yes and no, it's important to know the motivation behind the messages people are saying.

    > Put another way, no blind person is going to sit behind the wheel of a Tesla and tell the car to take him/her to the supermarket. That's exactly what Tesla is marketing and worki…

    I liken it to the time period when Kodak had made the first digital camera, but allowed other companies to surpass them and eat their breakfast, and now Kodak is bankrupt. The germ…

    I disagree completely. Sure, the change in feel is related to the accelerator, but it's the slowing down of the car that changes. In a gasoline car that would be referred to as "en…

    Dang, just looked up the suicide doors. That's... interesting. The driver and passenger seatbelts look like they are attached to the rear doors, so when you pick up someone, and th…

    I think a couple of things will help alleviate this problem: If you are a real estate agent with irregular driving patterns, there will be other patterns that are consistent. For e…

    I'm not. My nexus 6 was fun when it was new, but I've kinda grown tired of how enormous it is. I feel like 5.5 would be perfect for me.

    But where is the 200km of track? You also have to deal with the atmosphere. If the track is on the ground or low in the atmosphere, then when you come out of the "cannon" you would…
