I do worry about what happens when a dozen other companies want to do the same thing for different purposes and we end up with half a million micro satellites I instead of 42,000. But the nice thing is these satellites only have lives of a

There’s no official commitment to support it but if an Apple Engineering Manager is spending a month updating it I would guess they want to keep it alive for now.

Talking about X more generally, their Gimbal book is interesting: https://storage.googleapis.com/x-prod.appspot.com/files/Gimb... I think their self-driving cars project is probably what X could be at its peak, in

Yeah, I agree, courts are made up of people are designed to deal with the gray area as best they can. Courts deal with complex cases all the time. One thing they often look to in these gaps is intention. “District and state” was intended to

I have met a lot of programmers that don't know about the concept nor do they proactively think to apply it. I do understand the disconnect between knowing snobby language and doing good work. Certainly you can be an amazing programmer

The farm business is brutal. I think the dream of people moving to the country, owning some land, and living off of it comfortably is long gone and never coming back. At least with big money owning the farms and absorbing the risk people ca

Reproducible? Or deterministic? There's certainly benefits to being able to pull down research source code, and bug checking it. That's how programmers check code: tests and audits. However I think reproducing research is more oft

Yeah any experienced programmer could pick up Cobol and work on the project assuming its long enough in duration to be worth it. No college class is needed. Seems like they just didn't want to pay a high wage and it was an easy excuse

I know class action has a bad reputation, but this is the type of situation it was designed for. The courts can't handle 100,000 individual claims but it can handle one very large claim with 100,000 members.

Youtube has to realize that a significant amount of content that people watch on its site is reaction, commentary, compilations, and other recycled content. I think its for this reason that they don't go after these projects very aggre

Eye witnesses are very accurate when it comes to broad ideas like did you hear a loud noise on this day. Where they fail, especially compared to evidence and video, is details like what did the noise sound like, what did the person look lik

One issue I have with the "archival" aspect of pdfs discussed in the article, is you are archiving a picture of something, not the blueprint. So much pain and time will be spend on machine learning models extracting semantic meani

The only problems with PDFs are that they are misused. They are amazing at exactly reproducing a printed document, and far superior to a jpg at doing that because it is vector, searchable, can contain links, etc If you've ever tried to

Only if the insurance companies form a cartel (in the economic sense). People will switch carriers to ones with lower premiums so the market forces direct costs down to parity. Most costs are outside of insurer's control anyway, regula

Even if you are totally self funded you still are accountable to your customers. For software companies this might not be so bad, but many small business owners will tell you they make extremely demanding bosses

I doubt anyone who is deliberate about the content they consume needs this advice. New media is popular because of its novelty factor, hype pre-release, the social aspects of discussing whats popular, and the convenience of having a choice

I believe the average person will get most of their understanding of the past from time period movies and shows, purely constructed art forms. At least this upscaling "medium" is tied directly to what was captured at the time.

Hold times really have more to do with queueing theory then sending people away (plenty of people wait). The only way to make sure someone answers when you call would be to have 10 times as many agents as you need. Instead, they try to find

Yeah I always assumed the people that write these have played the game a bunch of times. There will always be superfans, and its kind of cool they have an creative outlet for their passion that helps others.

I think the reason is that the concepts are so abstract, no concrete word makes sense. So in the face of an arbitrary choice people use names. The situation isn't much better in computer science, where now when you look up half the sim
