How much does it weigh? I didn't see its mass listed anywhere.
Nearly all luxury car companies use this pricing strategy (and this certainly is a luxury car). The base models are often quite stripped, but the dealerships expect you'll want the options and stock accordingly.
1. Tesla dealerships? Except for the battery, I'd expect this car to be more robust than average, due to the relatively miniscule number of moving parts. They also don't require oil changes. I think that lack of maintenance is a big deal. Most of the time, it recharges itself overnight, so you never need to go to a gas station.

2. Your mom would probably like no oil changes/gas fillups and less maintenance. For many outside the tech community, a car that looks and performs like a Maserati helps. Tesla is also planning on putting Tesla showrooms into malls, to act like Apple stores, which should generate a lot of buzz. I think their brand is going to be really, really strong among average consumers fairly soon. It may not be affordable, but it's going to be an aspirational car for lots, which should help a lot when Tesla finally launches their low end car.

3. Yeah, not sure about plug installation. I imagine that this is at the top of their mind. Perhaps partnerships with affiliated electricians set up by the dealerships? In most of the houses I've lived in, the breaker box was in the garage, so it should probably be relatively simple in most cases.

4. Addressed well by another commenter.

5. Heh no idea.

Motorbikegames
Motorbike games such such stunt games, racing games, drifting games arein a huge demand. There are different games which fal l under the motorbike games category. There are different games such as dirt bike games, racing games in our bike games category.
Excite bike is one of the games. In this game, ExciteBike has three modes of gameplay. In Selection A, the player races solo. In Selection B, CPU players join the player. They act as another obstacle; hitting one from the back will cause the player to fall off the bike, while any CPU riders hitting the player's rear wheel will cause them to fall off.
In Design Mode, the player has the ability to build his or her own racing tracks. The player can choose hills and obstacles of various sizes and place them. The player can also choose where to finish the lap, and how many laps there are (up to nine). After it is finished, the player can race the track in either Selection A or Selection B.
In the excitebike game, The player controls the position of the red motorcycle with the Y-axis of the directional pad, and controls acceleration with the A and B buttons. Using B causes greater acceleration, but also increases the motorcycle's temperature shown as a bar at the bottom of the screen.
When the temperature exceeds safe limits the bar becomes full, the player will be immobilized for several seconds while the bike cools down. Driving over an arrow will immediately reduce the bike's temperature.

Ha! This is nothing. I actually know why my adsense account doesn't work. Google thinks I'm trying to scam them by creating multiple accounts because they have another account on their database with the EXACT same address and phone number.

That's not a duplicate account Google, it's called a brother!

The problem is that there is no decent alternative to Google Adsense. I've tried to find one about 2 to 3 years, as I had problems to get accepted in the Adsense program, but could not find anything that matches Adsense.
This is probably a little bit late for this release, but have you ever considered allowing arrays or strings with spaces on the value side of the events hash? This would allow you to define different functions to call in order when an event is fired, instead of just a single function that has to call them itself. I've run into a few situations where this would be useful, and seems like a very small change. Should I send a pull request?
Haven't tried these yet but they're HTML5 so no installation. School computer support maybe be a little difficult. One is pay for and the other is free.

It's this sudden turn into becoming a real company that has shocked and angered lots of people and burned up most of the good will capital they accrued till then.

If being a "real" company means only thinking about profits, well, then it is only fair that you lose the goodwill capital that you accrued by not only thinking about profits if you stop doing that. Is this the case with Google? For me the jury is still out, but it is undeniable that my OnyProfitsCountRank(tm) algorithm is getting a lot of signals that Google might be trailing the lots of Microsoft, Apple and Facebook.
The problem is its not just who has the most votes, but in the US, companies have a legal obligation to do what is in the best interest of the shareholders (even minority shareholders) over all other claimants.

California just created a new corporation type that allows 'public benefit' to take precedence over shareholder interest:

Google Adds Emergency Alerts to Google Maps
> Good voice recognition would also work, but I haven't seen this yet in a car.

Ditto. This seems like the obvious solution to the future of UIs, especially when driving or something else that occupies your main concentration (walking, etc). In the age of Siri and Google Maps, you'd think your car could handle simple commands like "find 123 StreetName" and map to it in the city you're in or close to. I've hated the concept of voice recognition for a long time, primarily because I don't speak clearly enough for most of the technologies to understand me, but now that it's getting better I truly believe this is the future.

Now it's like (press button, wait for beep) "Find 123 StreetName". Response: "Tuning radio to 1100 AM". "Wait, no..."

For the future think Star Trek: "Computer, where is the nearest gas station?" (note: addressing the computer to activate instead of pressing a button on the steering wheel = genius). Then a kindly female voice responds: "There is a Chevron and a 76 at the next exit, would you like me to route you to one of those?". "Yes, route me to the Chevron", etc.

Got one job offer, took it, then got another.  Etiquette?
So three months ago I was recommended by my instructor for a pentester position. He said that once the class was over (a week from then) he could officially vouch for me, since it's not showing favoritism if I'm not his student. I apply for the position and wait patiently. I email them back about 10 days later as per my instructor's advice asking if they have reviewed my resume, and got no response. I figured they had either ignored, forgotten, or lost my app.

Fast-forward to a few weeks ago when I apply for a sysadmin position at a local ISP. Less than three weeks from applying, I am hired before the background check even clears. I started last Wednesday.

Today, I get an email from the first company saying they want to set up a phone interview.

I really don't know how to handle this. Do I play hardball and tell them I was already hired? Do I ask if they can beat the pay and benefits of my current position? Do I say I am still interested but have been employed elsewhere? Do I tell my current boss that I might be considering a better position at another company?
yeah, but they seem to love that type of thing.

Lets hide the http:// prefix... but we have to show it on https connections so really we have accomplished nothing.

Good post, someone the other posted an op-ed critiquing the Gates' bioengineering programs. This article is more specific as to what is actually happening.
Even non-luxury cars tend to do that, so they can advertise lower base prices. When I bought a Honda Civic, the base price didn't even include air conditioning! All the cars on the dealer's lot did, though; you would've had to special-order if you really wanted the stripped-down base model.
Very commonly, a person's jaw/mouth is too small for the wistom teeth to fit. Case in point, I (25-year old guy) had a wisdom tooth which grew sideways (into the next tooth) and _would_ have destroyed the next tooth and caused an infection like the one linked in the article. I have a second one which might do the same.

These things are not preventable, you were just born lucky. Remember, humans didn't usually live to become 50 years old.
Suing is the only option to get your money back...
If one depends greatly on someone else to achieve things, then by definition they value collaboration. I assume we are still talking about academics because there could exist people who simply don't want to accomplish anything and therefore don't value collaboration. It's no secret either that people who are highly capable don't need collaboration except to meet societal and political expectations or to reduce their workload. Again, that follows from the definition of highly capable.

What would be a far more interesting research topic would be to measure negative reaction to any notion that some people can work better alone and any correlations those sentiments might entail.
This isn't stupid. Students from China, Taiwan and Hk alone make this a huge market. The students that do this are usually rich kids who've been unable to get into prestigious school locally so the parents are ashamed of them and send them away. A perfect niche because your clientele is rich and they don't care. Think an employee with a corporate credit card. Whoever can let the student be laziest is the one that will get all the business regardless of the price. I've seen 10k being paid of people providing these services.

To put this into perspective, I've had english schools ran in Taiwan (super small country) generate 500k in gross income with 50% margins (250k net profit in pocket). This is just teaching english where margins are lower because you need teachers.

The business he's talking about can get up to 75 to 80% margins if you're sales force is baller.
I'd also like to point out that the valley has some of the best weather I've ever seen in my life. I was only down there for a few days, but every day, I felt like I needed to do something. That's a 180 from east coast weather, when it's gloomy and raining every day.
I once used their very strict account disabling policy to get a competitor kicked from Google AdSense. It was not even that difficult. I just spent a couple of minutes every day visiting his website, clicking all the adsense links, closing all the openend tabs, reloading the page and so on. It took a few weeks, but then the ads just stopped showing up (despite the Javascript code still being loaded) and a few days later the webmaster removed the code, which I assume meant that he god kicked.
Well I think a lot of where Google crosses the line is becoming clearer now. For example, personalized ads in gmail. Try to opt-out of personalized ads in gmail, seriously go and try it.

You can click the button, but they won't actually opt you out. At least not how you'd expect. You'll still get personalized ads, but they just use a different heuristic for how to personalize (based on the current email).

How hard is it to not personalize my ads at all? It would be easy. But Google has opted to add value to advertisers over their users.

This alone is one reason why I'm thinking of leaving gmail. Haven't made the switch yet, but I'm seriously considering it.
Are We Playing the Mental Game Well Enough?
I posted the article because I think Google can do better and thought it would stir up some discussion. Google has had this issue for a long long time. The process appears to be highly automated and potentially impacting innocent people buying into the platform and investing time building up a base. I also may be a bit hypersensitive given the many articles I keep encountering regarding the United States govt and detention of citizens based on their Facebook and Twitter comments along with my own dislike for the ways the multinational corporations operate these days. I wouldn't say it is fear mongering as you will find no shortage of sites and blogs with stories of disgruntled customers. Just hope Google addresses the issues and remembers part of what makes them a great company.

Startups are worthwhile even when they fail. They are practice within an operating domain where learning over time happens, and positive-sum outcomes are possible, and individuals' incentives towards improvement create social benefits.

On the other hand, there is no chance that tomorrow, with more experience, someone will be a better lottery-ticket-buyer than today. The activity throws off no lessons for those involved or outside observers about what technologies or partnerships or businesses might work in the future. And yet that gambling is legal and easy for people of any net worth, while non-millionaires face legal deterrents for startup investing.

I didn't suggest 'encouraging people to burn money' on startups. There's no talk of creating subsidies or tax-advantages over other investments. Every check-writer needs to make their own calculation about the returns they expect, and the losses they can handle.

But it's their own damn money! How about we just remove the ancient, patronizing net-worth discrimination that makes it harder for non-millionaries to engage in private investing than other activities just as risky and more destructive?

It'd be a win for society to let 'normal people' of all wealth levels practice their competencies in a non-rigged, learnable, positive-sum business domain. When you say, "If you don't know the industry, investing in startups is like throwing your money away", that's not a bug, that's a feature. The losses would start the learning, and participants would improve or select-out very quickly. And the overall economy progresses in exactly that way: needing many small investigational failures to train the young, explore the possibility space, and lay the foundation for later big successes.
not related to this release per se, but could anyone give a 'helicopter view' of why Mozilla seems to be releasing new versions so quickly?

It seems like a year ago and I was on v3.6, and now it's version 10. I'm kind of getting upgrade fatigue and often struggle to see any major differences, except occasional performance changes (for better and worse). Just hoping somebody has an insight into the strategy and why the numbers are churning so quickly.

Upvoted for the first two paragraphs, but I can't make sense of the second sentence of the third paragraph. The algorithm given in the article works in Python because Python has different overflow behavior than Java, C, or C++. When you say you "see no evidence", it seems like you are saying the implementation given in the article does work in Java etc.

Basically what saucetenuto said.

In the USA at least, much of our government could function nearly the same regardless of if our market system is completely laissez-faire capitalism, or hardcore communist. In fact, you could argue that government and its' systems, like the judicial system should be completely devoid of any possibility for profit motives. Since, as saucetenuto states, those undermine the system.

Now, I don't want to get into an argument about whether good lawyers deserve to get paid better than bad lawyers, etc. But I don't think I'd want to meet the person who sees the justice inequality between rich and poor defendants and thinks "All is as it should be."

You are way off base on this one and have nothing to back this up. Ron Paul has consistently been for every American. He is for repealing Roe v. Wade and allowing states to decide on abortion rights, he has been outspoken on the bias of prison sentences and the death penalty on minorities, and is against a federal mandate on marriage. Those positions are exactly contrarian to the ones you are attempting to assign to him.

I'm not sure why you think his understanding of economics is "loony" as he is the ONLY member of congress that predicted the housing collapse YEARS before it happened (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mnuoHx9BINc)

Neither Bush nor Obama ever championed liberty. Ron Paul is a completely different animal. He isn't promising to GIVE you anything — he's promising to reduce government to get OUT of your life. Big difference.

This article is a good intro, but I think "Can it make serious money" is no.1
I had my account disabled last July and went through a similar experience in my appeal attempt. The interesting fact I pointed out to Google was that they sent me about 80 percent of my visitors via organic search. I didn't try to game the system or blend the ads to increase ctr or mislead consumers.

I offered to help diagnose the issue by going through server logs and anything else to no avail.

I guess when Google is making so much money from advertisers they rather just error on their side rather than spend time reviewing appeals.
You mean expert sex change, right? ;)
> Very commonly, a person's jaw/mouth is too small for the wistom teeth to fit.

Exactly this. I had something similar (identical?): A horizontal impaction of my bottom right molar. Had I left it longer, it would've destroyed the roots to the molar in front of it, and I would've lost that tooth, too.

I suspect it's largely genetic. My mum has all her wisdom teeth, and she's never had an issue; my father had all of his removed because they didn't come in straight. My situation played out identically to his. Hence, I don't believe that simply taking pristine care of the teeth will magically help--if they don't erupt from the gums properly or come in crooked, there isn't much else that can be done save an extraction if they're problematic. In many cases, you're better off having them removed to prevent issues precisely like this one.
