Yeah, not sure how valuable lots of real estate is if there aren't any high-paying jobs nearby, in part due to AI. And this isn't even about the total number of high-paying jobs. Even having too much income concentration (fewer, b

The traffic stop is for breaking some kind of traffic law, usually. I suppose you could have a reasonable suspicion stop, but it would have to be something like "a hit and run just happened nearby, no vehicle description", and you

Edit: It seems I'm wrong. Channel sounding requires an encrypted connection. It's not something that can be done between a passive device and your phone. It will allow things like secure entry (walk up to a door and it opens, be n

A much simpler heuristic would be to simply group tabs automatically when the tab is opened by clicking a link, or by searching a phrase that appears on the previous tab. No AI needed.

You can also increase the "lengt". Doubling it works well on my Macbook, and the pattern is more dense so you can see your fovea better.

It's also quite common that the customer is now the one that drives the interface. It's the customer's time wasted by the UI, but also the customer typically can't be expected to perform enough orders to actually learn a

I'm saying you can keep track of all the riders and drivers, matchmake, start/progress/complete trips, with a single server, for the entire world. Billing, serving assets like map tiles, etc. not included. Some key things to

It's also about revenue. Uber could run the complete global rider/driver flow from a single server. It doesn't, in part because all of those individual trips earn $1 or more each, so it's perfectly acceptable to the busi

I'm sure the ANPR network in the UK will make short work of people rolling back odometers, especially now that it is tax evasion. The sort of people that roll back odometers are also the sort that steal post-pay gas by driving off and

It should be simple enough to use the odometer. If the vehicle drives significantly outside the country or on private roads, then a GPS-based odometer seems simple enough. I'm sure a 1GB SD-card can geofence the public road network of
