He was talking about mpg (miles per gallon). He seems to be a hypermiler.

You mean banning humans from piloting drones or planes?

Human cognitive biases are easy to exploit too.

There's still Computer vs Computer, we also might see Freestyle Go (just as in Freestyle Chess).

I would assume the development will continue.

"Whenever a user opens the email without proper protection" is the caveat here.

"hidden images" don't work with most clients. I guess it was some link with a token they were clicking.

Is it safe to use finger for cleaning ears?

Well even Google still has tons of bugs (including XSS and XSRF).

Nowadays it's not possible to write applications without knowledge of XSS, XSRF, SQLi, redirects etc.etc. The security amount you have to understand is just getting ridiculous.

And let's not even mention DOS. No-one is securing against that and most servers can be made inaccessible by a simple script that just opens connections.

Yes, Tesla demonstrated wireless power in 1891

Truth to be told - I'll buy one

I'm actually more excited about the small scale generation. Solar is the only viable method for generating electricity in 1 watt to several KW. Wind also comes in handy here. I'm wondering what news technologies this will allow.

Most people I know in US consider diesel dirty.

"domain privacy" is just another extortion scheme.

> If I could do so anonymously, I'd do it in a heartbeat

Even if you did they still could identify you if e.g. one of your relatives also submitted a sample.

It's actually funny - BBC probably tried to convey a message that "age doesn't matter", but in tech circles this gets translated to "only a young person could achieve this".

Sounds like survivor-ship bias. We also have to account for all broke/dead/etc "Marks Zuckerbergs".

Someone with a stop-loss order doesn't seem like a retail investor to me.

Retail investors buy and hold till retirement.

I have always wondered whether it would be possible to remove alternator from ICE cars and substitute it with a chargeable battery.

You might try installing led lights there - that might decrease power draw by a factor of 10.
