Sheltered cycleways would be the most green idea.

Why would you put them in the car park and not on the roof where they can be angled and unobstructed, with no new engineering challenges.

Sheep can still graze under the panels on farmland. Not that I'm advocating, farming sheep or using green fields for solar panels!

> About 80% of this commercial space is parking lots. It's wasted space. Why not use it to produce power?

You didn't get my point obviously. Parking spaces are to park on. When a car is on a parking space, it's blocking the light from tiles under it and also casting a shadow.

> Why use additional fertile or constructible terrain to add solar tiles?

Because they won't have cars park on them. They will also be at an optimal angle and cleaner.

> The tiles will be mostly installed on parking space near commercial centers..

What would possible block the sun from reaching these solar cells...

> I find it actually a great idea, especially with more electrical cars looking for plugs at those locations.

Oh yeah.

Wouldn't it be simpler to dictate that if you own a commercial warehouse over xxxx sqm you must install solar panels, or allow them to be installed.

Give large incentives, better rates, it's not like the nuclear industry don't get a helping hand.

You still need to build a normal road under the solar panels. They aren't going to be laying solar panels on dirt.

Your accountant will also be working to make the business look as bad as possible on paper to save you tax. With that caveat, it's a tool I've used to investigate markets to see how big they are.

Running a payment gateway and authentication services is like painting a massive target on your back. The security must be impeccable, one mistake would be a monumental score on the part of a cracker.

A VPS introduces many layers of possible weakness, that could be used a entry points for an attack.

PHP just isn't the right tool for the job. I agree with you, that at this point in time it's secure. I trust that other languages, with smaller, simpler code bases will be more secure over time.

I have huge respect for PHP, and many years of PHP development under my belt. I wouldn't dream of using it for something pretty heavy weight such a this. Certainly a factor that would come into play for some prospective users.

Genuinely like the idea, but wouldn't trust a service that uses PHP on a VPS without SSL. I'm sure you will fix the SSL when you launch, and I'm just a snob with regards to PHP.

A local branch line (UK) has been testing battery powered trains this year, to save the expensive of electrifying the line. They charge the batteries on the electrified main line. Hopefully this will take off on other branch lines.

A great benefit is you end up in the heart of a city, not at airfield 80 miles away. Lock your bag up in the station and explore.

If you like your long railway journeys, Olso to Bergen is beautiful 7 hour trip.

Here I am developing a BLE ethylene monitoring device. Arg, your implementation is so simple. My kickstarter is doomed to failure.

Google "silicon film" & "digipod" for a couple of attempts at exactly this.

Irresponsible product design. Unnecessary and throwaway.
