And what about having cctv on every work station in a factory? This is regularly used in a high cost scenarios for quality assurance/tracking. And it will be used much more when technology is cheaper / easier to deploy. Is this k

What is the difference between this and having cctv in a factory building? Companies impose more work control over more people. If a company makes good use of it then it becomes a regular practice. If not then employees select another emplo

Wow - this is the most insightful comment and is downvoted???? The key idea - the artist can be the one who creates a market is extremely insightful for me. It means that the art is an extremely risky value storage since entire market is li

The review was against google policy (conflict of interests) and google provided ways to remove it were not handled by google at all. So this was not the case of taking off a legit review.

My personal experience as a business owner. We do not care about reviews since we are a B2B software house. Our customers are mid- to large-size companies so they do not play reviews but lawyers if our service wasn't of highest quality

Petro-dollar is not about US dependences on oil producers. It is the other way. It is about forcing all countries to using dollars to buy oil. This allows the US to sell dollars and charge for this in various ways. On the other hand it requ

Read more about petro-dollar scheme. Basically US provides military services to oil producers in exchange for global tax. This is only possible if US is able to retain their military position. So every dollar you think is being subsidized t

You can start with any group. After a successful study, you have a product for this specific group. Afterwards you can broaden the group having enough money for a more detailed study.

It is extremely unlikely (in the human terms - not possible) that LED would break in such a way that it transmits the power and not emit light at the same time. Of course the LED can be installed in a parallel connection on the circuit, but

I read the first link and it is not convincing - reporting after 11 days of work and complaining about 15-20 miles of walking per day. I would say - this sounds awesome for a lot of people who need to go for gym just to keep in any shape. I

I had been using my own adsl modem up until the point it completely stopped working. I decided to rent a modem from the company after that. And I was surprised how stable to connection can be with the modem provided by telecom. I think that

Does it allow for scaling windows or just resizing. I would be thrilled by a possibility to have 1 main area and 3 smallers on a side, where windows wouldn't resize but just scale down.

Yep. The situation is similar to what Ford had. Salary increase might happen if they have a shortage of candidates. But will there be a shortage? Or are they just the best employer for a lot of people?

Crappy indeed. $7/mo for 15GB/mo is a current standard in Poland. I'm at 10GB/mo, $7/mo because I'm lazy recently and never used that much.

This is similar to new car sales being an early indicator of a recession. Government answer in the wake of a coming recession? Subsidize cars. Winning 5g race is an indication of technological leadership. But you cannot help win it forceful

Hmmmmm. I tried to follow this youtube, but it doesn't make sense for me. The guy is saying that D-wave would be a success even if it was not a quantum but only solved a hard problem. I could buy this, but they do not solve any problem

Hi. I would like to take the opportunity to get your opinion on quantum computing. My understanding is that there is a significant work in theoretical quantum computing done by you and many people. Results presented by you seems impressive.
