I've tried Affinity. Unfortunately a literal lifetime of photoshop has made it basically impossible to switch. It's like getting into a car and all the buttons are rearranged and behave different. The jokes on me. I pirated photos

Hopefully a cure comes as a form of vaccine so some folks can be totally against that. I don't think mental stimulation correlates to the development of alzheimers anyway. The papers I've touched on the subject seem to suggest a m

Files will always exist conceptually as a way of expressing data. The notion of sharing exists because of sandboxing and the need to exchange data between apps. This has been extended beyond just apps to sharing between multiple users or en

Right. That's what I added. You have to reverse engineer what's going on. As with anything if you don't know how it works. If your IC is producing crazy readings, or you look under a thermal camera, probably can blame the chi

It depends on the manufacturer. Some are better than others. Some document pretty well but are overshadowed by crap manufacturing. Personally I really like how Tesla did their online service manual. It's a good balance of technical but

Newer cars do have lower maintenance and repair costs. This is why vehicles with over 100k miles still fetch a fair amount of money. Computers are very good at doing the same thing over again indefinitely, unlike fully mechanical implementa

Same thing that happens if a brake line pops, steering wheel locks up, or the throttle gets jammed open. There are ways of designing redundancies into those systems. Multiple communication channels, reserve sources of power. A lot of new mo

Not so much snow, as you have rapidly changing road conditions such as ice and freezing rain. And then factor in poor road markings and not always abundantly clear path finding. The nice thing about EVs like they're using now. The elec

From what I can tell it's using a neural network to derive an image from the interference patterns of light. I imagine you could do this using a standard computational model, it would just be very intensive. So I guess it would be

Yeah. I'm familiar with the harsher climates aspect. The salt isn't really for the snow, it's for ice. Temperatures above like 10F, the sun will still cut through an untreated road surface and glaze over. Even with snow, beca

Because the goal is to get the road surface exposed so it'll heat up and melt off the snow during the day. And then the residual salt will leave a residue which will help prevent refreezing.
