I drove vehicles with manual transmissions for nearly 50 years. The last truck I had with a manual transmission I had to special order because that was the only way to get it. No dealer within 100 miles had anything available with a manual transmission unless it was a sports car or a sub-compact.

I agree with the camera helping when pulling in backwards into parking slots. The style of mirrors helps too. Trucks are equipped to make it easy to position them accurately when backing up. You need accurate positioning to hook up a trailer.

Another part of the problem with parking is the longer wheelbase and larger turning radius. If you are facing forward in a parking slot then when you leave you cannot start turning significantly until you've backed about half way out of the parking slot. When backed into a parking slot you can start turning almost immediately as you leave.

I suspect the difficulties when parking is part of the reason why most trucks you see in the city are the shorter wheelbase variants.

I agree this is a dumb proposal.
Just wait until the AI that generates your code gets compromised.

After a quick internet search I'll leave this link here:

In the long run, we would be getting that supply from the Moon or asteroids. This initial step is needed though, but I don't see it being profitable.

How the fuck is 550 meter accuracy, let alone 2 nautical miles accuracy, better than GPS.

I suspect it is accurate enough to find the airport if/when GPS fails or is jammed. Landing the plane will be up to the pilot.

The *concept* sounds interesting (allowing 3rd parties to no longer have to have their own background updater running in the background could be a net positive). I want to know more about the details.

Yeah, I'd hate to miss out on my malware updates.

At least for me there are other factors too.
I skimmed the paper and didn't see what questions they wanted to ask in the survey. For only $5 or the 1 in 20 chance of $100 I'd want to know what the questions are up front and what they will do with the answers and if they collect any personally identifiable information.

Advertisers will love this. I suspect the QR codes won't just have the information proposed in this article but embedded links that you'll have to follow to get the information you are looking for. Along with that you'll get advertisements and tracking cookies.

I was a child prodigy who skipped a grade, not dissimilar to Sheldon Cooper, except I was better socialized, and excelled at athletics and was a leader in the Boy Scouts.

I had a real problem getting to sleep at night and waking up in the morning. I would read in bed until late at night and be late in the morning.

At some point in my early 20's I experienced a period of unemployment, and at my doctors advice I started tracking my sleep. We determined that I had a 27 hour biological clock. He said it was unusual, but happened to some people, mostly young men, and that I would grow out of it as I got older. Which didn't really happen, but kind of happened. I have a 24 hour clock but I only sleep 6 hours a night, sometimes less.

This is only because Google Play does not exist in China, and there is no authentic Microsoft Authenticator app for Android.

In the US maybe. In Greece 40 hours plus a very small amount of overtime is allowed. (150 hours a year of overtime (+2.6 hours a week on average)) is the absolute max allowed by law.

Yeah, its pretty impossible to promise that prices will never go up. Inflation happens.

That said, their guarantee to pay your last month is nice, but their advertising certainly didn't make clear what they were promising.
