Being a non-native English speaker, I had to read the article to finally understand this isn't about chainsaws with embedded logging devicel, like 'black boxes' in cars.

I'd expect a significant change in diamond pricing structure — De Beers and the jewelry industry sure can keep prices from dropping uncontrollably, but I'd guess some kinds of impurities will become markers of superior value (&quo

ok, but maybe combined with the notice that if you're from EU, you should leave, that would be an effective measure to show you mean it when you say 'no business with EU'.

Like electric trains. And to make infrastructure costs low, make virtual trains of self-driving electric cars on dedicated lanes. I really believe the US will get self-driving cars first, as a first form of pervasive public transportation.

Simply stop accepting European credit cards. Just like many EU online shops do not accept non-EU (or what blacklist do they have) cards. At least I haven't been able to buy an ebook without a proper European card and/or billing ad

Sure: I'd like to purchase three versions of it _simultaneously_ to learn how it works: fully assembled, as a kit, and in a source form. That way I guess debugging it would be much easier, and should the two get assembled successfully,

Do architects nowadays not have to be competent structural engineers? If so, it would amuse me greatly: how can you be entrusted in drawing new building shapes if you have no clue on their feasibility? In other words, have the word 'ar

Well, to extract welfare funding from rich people you already have income taxes (maybe even progressive), why exactly does one want to encourage a low-quality lifestyle?

I understand the viewpoint that less cars = better cities. But worse cars? Because this heavily penalizes buying better cars. I understand the need to segment the tax burden by income level, but it seems reasonable to make the maximum t

Also, they officially support a keyboard for iPad Pro. With recent multitasking updates for iPad and considering positive reviews for the keyboard, the Pro seems to be a serious contender for laptop replacement. Recently got a Pro 10.5, and

Sorry, but I see nothing minimal in their screenshots [0]. Same iTunes for my taste. I do believe the performance footprint is minimal, but that't not the first aspect for an everyday app. [0] http://deadbeef.sourceforge.net

There's also http://aimp2.us/ , which, AFAIR, in some respects whips Winamp's ass. Sadly nothing comparable to either on Linux.

I see replacing products with services as something that limits your ability to live the way you'd like . Good phrasing. Although I do see it as a reliability problem (it is more so if you live in a less technically developed country

As a lead developer in a ROS-based project, I'm not sure whether we'll adopt ROS2 in a couple of years or abandon it altogether. It seems like with ROS2 supporting integrated CMake builds will be a lot more difficult, and in our c

I remember my colleague working with JSON in MATLAB via some thirdparty library about 2 or 3 years ago. It was regex-based, it was slow as hell but at least it was available.

JSON, like XML, is supported by everything, including not only general purpose languages, but also by more specialized environments like MATLAB. Also its compatibility across implementations is very good, excluding support for comments and

Exactly my thought about json-schema, as I use it extensively in both Python and C++ (excellent library valijson [0]). Not all Python objects are json-serializable by default, so the ideal solution (for me) would be json-schema with simple

The problem is, C-only codebases are pretty rare, even established ones adopt C++ (e.g. Darktable, which has a rather advanced C-only object system for UI and plugins). Especially in 'hot' topics like AI, where there may be place

Is C11 a plus though? It has features strongly diverging from C++ (e.g. struct initializers), and may only add confusion.

In this case, being the last author should matter more. As in, you have a number of first-author publications to prove you can do research yourself, then start publishing as the last author with different first authors, to show you'r
