  1. When the average driver has around 100 IQ when it comes to safety and common sense then the only real solution are self driving vehicles.

    As AI is still a long way from human intelligence and self driving cars are still having issues, although possibly at some point in the distant future it may be the case, it is far from reality at the moment.

    and you probably thought the internet was a fad in the early days?

    It's not all or nothing with self driving.

    Modern cars like Audi's, Mercedes etc already have safety systems that alert for dangers and automatically brake if the driver is not paying enough attention.

  2. No way. Thailand doesn't want its citizens thinking out of the box.

    Meanwhile it's medical revolution in the US. Studies showing it lowers insulin, inflammation, stress, excellent sleep aid etc etc.

    The more the world progresses the further Thailand falls behind.

    Really though CBD can be purchased on Amazon/ebay etc and shipped to anywhere of the 50 states.

  3. I moved back to the states but curious what is the latest in Thailand.

    Still no transdermal creams and gels?

    In the US they now have nasal gels, sublingual, implantable pellets, very affordable creams at compounding pharmacies.

    Anything new in hormone replacement there?

  4. Uh motor heat tops out at 125 degrees F (51 C) and that was while testing at 110 to 115 degrees F in California. These are similar motors to helicopter and drone motors.

    Lipo4 cells can be fully discharged and dicarded in normal trash. Look it up.

    Big benefit of getting off the bike is reclaiming great posture.

    As much as I loved cycling its pretty much just makes a person good and cycling and suck at most other athletic functions.

    Turns out sitting in a chair, car, motorbike or bicycle is postural health disaster.

  5. Let's not forget Galopping Gertie built in the almighty, all powerful, all wonderful, all perfect yoo-ess-eh?

    I think if you cared to investigate closely and review the engineering reports on the Tacoma bridge failure you might see / learn there is a major difference in the mode of failure between these two events.

    The I-10 bridge in California that failed was nearly 60 years old.

  6. I am back in the States now and they sell this unrefined Nutiva red palm oil.

    It's loaded with carotenoids like carrots. Tastes great and only $6 for 15oz.

    This is interesting quote from the wiki.

    "Crude palm oil, however, is the richest source of carotenoids in nature in terms of retinol (provitamin A) equivalent."

    Love the stuff and great alternative to coconut oil which can boring from taste perspective.

  7. Sprinting down animals until they are exhausted?

    You might want to look into that.

    Sure Native Americans would track a deer for long periods to keep it moving until it was exhausted but it wasn't due to sprinting. They just kept the deer moving to cause overheating without rest periods.

    That is called Persistence hunting and involved mostly involved jogging and walking.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persistence_hunting

    Humans had to be good long distance to hunt and gather.

    The sprinting I am guessing was essential for escaping dangers.

  8. the 1 year or 6 month ED extensions are a thing of the past.

    The rules just changed in Sept/Oct 14

    Now pretty sure everybody goes every 90 days for 1900 baht extension.

    You better like getting up at 5:30 am to get in line.

    Can check the Visa forum but pretty sure 90 days only.

  9. Running sprints barefoot on grass is a really good way to debug a persons biomechanics.

    If a person can't sprint then going out longer slower runs is often counter productive.

    Many people have poor hip extension.

    Once there is good hip extension then many diverse running exercises are possible without injury.

    In this example see how the blue line can extend behind the red line?

    Barefoot and sprinting enforces that range of motion.

    Longer slower distances can be performed without that extension but lead to tightness and injuries
