Carpetwood: A Walking Table Project
And after also installing a 14.8V LiPo battery into its belly, I now had a wireless table that could walk anywhere in my living room using a tiny remote. Is it honestly very useful? Maybe not. But is it fun to make it bring me a drink? Very much so.
“A Very Smart and Accessible Friend.” Why the Chicago Manual of Style Remains Essential
Serial commas? Seriously frowned upon. If readers hit more commas than they need to, they’re more likely to pause reading, get distracted by a gust of wind or a baby squirrel, and then forget to ever start again.

The people with the best chance to discover it were medical students and surgeons, and each group faced a significant barrier. Surgeons had the expertise to recognize and preserve this tiny, delicate nerve, but they didn’t have the time or operative freedom to flay their patients open from ankle to groin to trace its path.

40 Of The Most Futuristic Concept Cars From The Past That Look Totally Bizarre Today
Back in the late 50s, it was believed that nuclear technology could be made small and cheap enough to replace gasoline. So, Ford came up with the bold idea to use it to power cars.
Unveiled in 1957, the Ford Nucleon featured a small nuclear reactor in the rear of the vehicle. The idea was to use uranium fission to power a steam engine, such as done in nuclear submarines. But it proved to be impractical.
