A lot of cars today are probably more aware of what is going to happen in 20 meters than the driver is.

Surely the same data that is used for automatic braking, lane assist etc could be used to improve timings on automatic gear shifts?

Communism: "A theory or system of social organization in which all property is owned by the community, and each person contributes and receives according to their ability and needs."

Basic Income: "An income unconditionally granted to all on an individual basis, without means test or work requirement."

I dunno, they sound pretty different to me.

It looks like 2.2.1 is the latest source code version, but the builds for Windows and Mac are slightly behind. The windows download is 1.9.5, but was built 13 hours ago and has the fix.

That was my first thought, it seems like the 'take photo/email to special address' step is a bit long winded.

They should just slap a raspberry pi / webcam on the opposite wall and get it to take a photo every 10 minutes.

I like the end result, but i'm not sure why they decided to use 14 canvas tags when 1 would have worked just as well.

It seems wasteful, canvas was designed specifically to allow drawing and manipulating multiple images on a single surface, these guys are using canvas as if it were a div with a background image.

You need to add an 's' at the end of "provide".

That code won't kill it, it seems to need a width and height, see this one:
