Stop transfering people from sales to engineering!

I can edit my street as a dead end to lower bar traffic, cool!

So the homework is encouraging kids to explore a real life tool and the teacher can look at the result and corrects any issue with the result thus guiding the students towards a appropriate usage.

It’s a good thing.

Fuck cars

If you go into the detailed explanation (and can read French) they do have some hydraulic pumping included in their “batteries” section.

In their 100% renewables scénario on a peak consumption (105gw) hour and peak energy production (sun at zenith) they would store the excess production like such:

• 7.2gw to water pumping
• 22gw to static batteries
• 2gw back to the grid (chatting electric vehicles I guess).

Also even in their most nuclear scenario (50% nuclear, 50% renewables) they still include 7.2gw of water pumping.

I’m curious of why you put so much value in water pumping? As a Quebecois I have a small notion of how disruptive (flooding of vast areas of land, massive amounts of concrete, dead rivers downstream of the dam ) water reservoirs for hydroelectricity can be and I have a hard time imagining a viable way of relying extensively on that technique.

It’s pay walled but how would China enforce that ruling? Ban all of Intel’s transactions with Chinese entity? Fines?

He was reacting to alerts, complying to them by simply touching the steering wheel. He did that 150 times during that 45 minute trip ( not all the trip was on auto pilot).

So if the guy died the car would of disengaged auto pilot (I’m not sure how this works).

You can check the video in the article. It’s quite informative .

Edit

I saw another video and it takes ~60 seconds after taking off your hand from the steering wheel for the car to safely come to a full stop.

Here in Montreal we have a very popular car sharing company that allows many of us to not own cars.

It’s biggest issue at the moment is that the company can’t buy cars as quickly as demand increases. This type of cars would be a great addition to their park since a lot of the trips their customer do are short inner city trips.

Looks like it fits on the filter

They article mention it’s more about discouraging teens from starting smoking than making current smokers quit.

It kind of make sense since you start smoking by receiving a single cigarette not by buying a pack. I know at my high school a lot of smokers started smoking by buying individual smoke from the smoke pusher
