In practicality, it is not a good practice to kill another thread without some sort of synchronization anyway. However, if one thread is not responding for a long period of time, it will be good to allow the parent thread to terminate it. (...) (19 years ago, 29-Jan-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

The second set of arms on Mike's robot gives it better mobility. They make its overall tread length much longer, so it can treat stairs like a ramp instead of, well, stairs, and that makes it faster at climbing them. The arms also let it raise the (...)
