@AuthorGFAllen Next time this happens, immediately straighten your leg and pull your toes up. Engaging the opposing muscles makes the calf muscles relax.

And 🍌 s.

Not a doctor but this works for me.

@mixedgrass666 I guess you never listened to Click and Clack, the Tappet Brothers https://t.co/bMZaFCV2hK 😂

@_DickensJustin @dmitri_dolgov We only have two eyes. We can look around and check our mirrors, but our knowledge gets stale so we're uncertain when an emergency happens. A Waymo already knows where all the pedestrians are because it's constantly tracking them in all directions.

@jacki3c33 @Liberfach0 I can't believe I had to scroll down so far to find this meme!

@flyaisleseat I'm not saying it's good, just that's it's not all bad. 🙂

@johso @flyaisleseat @DriveTeslaca LFP batteries tolerate high SOC much better than NMC batteries, with significantly less (but not zero) degradation.

[sys826 @sys8263]

@flyaisleseat @DriveTeslaca LFP batteries have certain advantages. For example, you can charge them to 100% regularly without worrying about degradation.

@davepl1968 My brother and I retrofitted a manual choke on our '77 International Harvester Scout II. After learning how to use it, we could start the car even when the battery could barely manage to turn over the engine.

@cremieuxrecueil LLMs probably suffer from many of the same unconscious biases that we do.

@realsaadasad I saw these in China and it kind of blew my mind. There are two stairwell doors on each floor, including the ground floor. Each door goes to a different stairwell. If one person is going up and someone else is coming down, they may never cross paths.

@ArtemisConsort I call it O(hash) which is less than O(log(n)) and more than O(1).

[sys826 @sys8263]

@davepl1968 @emilyjuniper_ Yes. 👍

@lucythegreat123 Southwest had a good alternative approach until they caved. The current approach makes boarding slow so airlines have to pay more for gate access. Alas, nickel and diming folks brings in enough revenue to more than offset this expense.

@kunchenguid The original org chart meme was created by Manu Cornet.

@GreenCarpetFan @wasianterror The Accord DX with automatic transmission sold for $14,250 new. In today's dollars, that's about $33,500. There are lots of much less expensive vehicles for sale in China, but they wouldn't meet US safety standards.
