When you park at a Super Charger, you can leave your car to charge while you go grab a bite or do some shopping. At some point though, your car will finish charging. After that, you are taking up a parking spot with your car plugged in. This is where “Idle Fees” kick in. If […]

I recently reviewed the video The Great Hack from Netflix. Upon looking to cite the link above as a source, I stumbled upon a top Google result (currently second only to the Netflix trailer page itself) called What Netflix’s ‘Great Hack’ Gets Wrong About Cambridge Analytica and subtitled: The British consulting firm didn’t steal the […]

//If you are reading this, I suggest you skip it. You have been warned. At some point, Tesla will face the decision: [which car to make next?] Hardware specifics that exist tangibly including paint colour, # motors, performance, battery size, r/l hand drive etc. need to be built in batches. Tesla will want to minimize […]

I don’t do many product reviews, but I thought I would do one for this set of headphones I have been using for a couple years. Spend some hundreds of dollars. Sound quality has been basically subjectively perfect. It is how I expect things to sound now. Since headphones are so close to your ears, […]

As of a few weeks ago Sentry Mode has been updated to stay on and allow you to input more settings such as the ability to configure when […]

It’s been a pretty crazy red wine night. So let’s see how this blog turns out. My idea is a Tornado Neutraliser. Based on research from NOAA let’s assume we can compute with cameras tornado physics real-time. That is, we can point a camera and detect different physical points of velocities from atmospheric movement at […]

In Canada, it is hard to cover all the ground. Many of my favourite spots have poor connections. Places I could never live because I couldn’t work. Places I can’t stay long because I need to get back to an internet connection. And for my spotty internet connections I pay for cell phone and home […]
