Sorry for the terrible source, but I always admired the tactical leaf;

I think an always-installed bike rack is going to be the "safest" solution.

Here in Tennessee I'm also thinking about making a "frame" which extends out about 12 inches from the rear of the bumper, blocking aerial observation (but still in compliance with Tennessee law, "visible from rear at 100ft").

Our photo tickets aren't legally enforceable (across the entire state, except for automated school/bus citations), but the Flock cameras have really started being deployed over the past year.

Most of our new Flock cameras have additional security cameras prominently recording, nearby (like you'd see in a bigbox parking lot for security). I hope we can legislate these out of existance, pronto.


Yeah, and then you get harpooned for reading an article about Kamela Harris five years ago.

The CEO of Ford was driving a competition EV for months;

Seems like they meant for a work device.

My anecdotal experience says they do. So what makes our observations different?

>stable

>yield

You probably need to rethink this. Where would the yield come from? Who stores the gold? Where's the trust?

Ok, we buy $1m in gold and issue the coins. Gold price tanks, what to do?


No I don't. PhD and MBA If you bring something to the table I would love to talk to you

The price of the backing asset doesn't matter. 1 oz = 1 oz.

This guy works for Coke though right, you might have this backwards?

Yes, I flipped it. Duh. Obviously the two companies are important partners. I imagine there is a pretty senior person on the McDonalds side who has primary responsibility for the partnership.

I wonder if he was truly Spying or if he was for example taking a picture of a checklist to review in his hotel room. Not excusing anything but it would add some context.

This seems like a pretty reasonable statement from him; I'm sure others would appreciate the work, if you have the time.


Pressure switches, flow sensors, mechanical flame detectors, power supply monitoring, watchdog timers, and XX years of Honeywell or whoever knowing what they are doing.

So yes, a mirror trip reset is probably a good start. But would I trust someone's vision to this alone?


> Pressure switches, flow sensors, mechanical flame detectors, power supply monitoring, watchdog timers, and XX years of Honeywell or whoever knowing what they are doing.

Nope, nothing as complicated as that. You're close with the watchdog timer.

The solenoid is driven by a charge pump, which is capacitively coupled to the output of the controller. The controller toggles the gas grant output on and off a couple of times a second, and it doesn't matter if it sticks high or low - if there's no pulses the charge pump with "go flat" after about a second and drop the solenoid out.

Do the same thing. If a sensor at the edge of the LIDAR's scan misses a scan, kill the beam.

Same way we used to do for electron beam scanning.

Sounds like a great plan, but I question the "about a second" timing; the GP post calculates that "about a second" is between 4X and 10X the time required to cause damage. So, how fast do these things scan/cycle across their field of view? Could this be solved by speeding up the cycle, or would that overly compromise the image? Change the scan pattern, or insert more check-points in the pattern?
