Thanks, I had no idea of this.

Funny , because they say "self driving" on their own website:

CA law says every autonomous car in testing needs to have an operator in charge, so technically all incidents are due to human error.

Also: Uber is not listed in the CA DMV list of companies allowed to test autonomous vehicles? https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/dmv/detail/vr/autonomous/testi...

I love F1, but driving on a closed track (or highways, for what matters) is many orders of magnitude easier than dealing with traffic, people, bikes, other drivers, etc. BMW created this many years ago, and the car was better than most drivers already. Advancing track days doesn't really help much on bringing cars to cities.

If anybody is reading this and curious about Ketosis, I'd recommend Taubes book (https://www.amazon.com/Why-We-Get-Fat-About/dp/0307474259). It's a great review of scientific studies done over the years.

I read that 4 years ago, spent another 4 months reading the listed studies, convinced myself it was a good plan, and lost 40 pounds with no exercises. I still do LCHF after all these years, and likely will never go back to a traditional diet, it feels great.

Yes, go have a finite number of board states, just 2.08168199382×10^170, just a bit over the 10^80 atoms in the universe.

I've been eating LCHF for almost 4 years now, I started doing it to lose weight, but I feel so much better when on diet that is hard to stop. When I'm firm on the diet, I can easily go a full day without any food, and not feel any hunger or mood swings. It's great.

You can always just continue to use the same version of the library you always used.

I finished updating my app to iOS7 and I think it looks way better than most items in that page: http://pic.twitter.com/QSruUkzMzr

Agree. Knowing that users of old devices will continue to be able to use your app makes me a lot more excited about releasing for iOS7 only.

Themes don't work; Windows Phone has two choices and a lot of developers simply support only of them.
