At what point in our industry have we ever said "Let's stop innovating and making things easier, we've come far enough, now the people have to adapt to us." Natural language processing and conversation is the next step

Your comment misses the critical point though... this hits all the places that have no electronic booking systems. To those here that concept probably seems absurd because we're technically oriented. My barber, doctor, mechanic and f

I'll throw Lenovo and the Dell XPS line to start. Sadly the line I loved, the VAIO Z, is gone now but hardware wise they were excellent too.

And the others weren't working on it for a year before their announcements as well?

What I don't see many people commenting on is how this benefits small business. My barber, my Dr., my mechanic, my favorite restaurants, etc. are all small "shops". They don't have online booking nor do they want it.

I travel for work a lot, often to new places, and Google Maps is my go to for restaurants almost nightly when on the road. Just in the last week Maps helped me find 2 new favorites in Flushing, NY.

I was the same. The moment I saw the three icons gone I rolled my eyes. I thought it was pretty user friendly as is. That said once demoed I am interested to try it. I would like to have an option to toggle back though if desired because

There are Kiosk uses of iPads where this could be an issue. Often those devices are mounted 24/7 inside a secure housing and left on but communicate with external devices. Now someone will have to reset them once a week. Edit: thanks

One difference I find is that Blue Origin's videos almost seem too polished to me? With the advertising-esque overlays, the rock music, the editing. Always feels like I'm watching a commercial vs. an actual space flight. SpaceX

I don't really see the decentralized argument. I believe it's meant to solve a noble intent but in reality for a network to be successful all the information has to be readily available. You can't have a social network that

Ethernet ports are still a pain to not have for us. I have staff that travel to sites and need to test hard lines to see if they are live and most of them forget their dongle from time to time. Life was easier when they had built in ports

There in lies what might be core to the issue though. "An edge case we hadn't tested" Perhaps how we DO AI right now just isn't quite ready for situations this complex yet? Maybe AI based on "oh I've experie

While I do agree there is a level of responsibility on the driver's part here I will also say that I think it's equally unreasonable to expect someone to stay alert in that situation. Human brains need stimulus and interaction to

If the vehicle can't detect objects in the non visible spectrum (even just IR) at least as far away as a human can in the visible spectrum then that is a showstopper right there for the technology. Additionally if it can't then i

This is exactly it. I see people mentioning seeing the victim at the last second but these vehicles are supposed to be better. They scan in non visible spectrums with LIDAR. Lack of safety vest, lack of headlights, none of it is supposed

According to one thing I read (which I will admit was third party comments) there was a countersignature present up until version 1.22 and then in 1.23 it disappeared. I am not familiar with Oculus' binaries though so I don't kn

Even being a seemingly simple structure it would still be expensive to build. I'm sure it also contains latching hardware, etc. used to release it. Seeing as it's mostly a static piece if they can get it down in one piece it&#x2

Right off the top of my head the medical data from long term space exposure will be absolutely critical to any future journeys. And I'm sure that's just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to perfecting long duration systems des

I don't think the statement fails in that it's accurate of the expectations. What has failed is the understanding of the manufacturers of, as you said, human concentration. They advertise semi-autonomous driving as making drivin

Why was no one ever so militant against advertising in newspapers? "There are pages of ads, whole sections, just ads!! I didn't look in the newspaper to see ads!" For a couple hundred years the newspaper functioned as the p

I have had the opposite experience. While individual page loads were a bit quicker in Chrome after a number of tabs were open it bogged down so badly (coupled with the lack of customization) I ran back to Firefox every time. A few months l

From this it barely walks, let alone runs. I thought maybe they were holding back for a shock finale race or something but then it switched to CG and that was it.

My understanding of the key difference between the 330 and the 340 is the maximum take-off weight and you can see the extra landing gear on 340 models due to this. MTOW being higher on the 340 allows it to carry more fuel even with a full
