The whole thing is written for insiders. Nothing wrong with that, but when it gets picked up by an aggregator like HN you have the issue of 99% of your new readership having to figure out what exactly it is you are talking about.

True, but 90% of the mainframe instructions weren't tracking, telematics, data exfiltration, and user profiling. So it kinda evens out.

Considering that the Olympics are supposed to be a test of high caliber athletics, you could argue that the lack of a standard, and the resulting variation, means that the athletes who are most adaptable have an edge. Which doesn't see

It's neat tech, I wonder what the adoption curve will look like and what the price premium will be. TVs are so predominant in our lives that room layouts and furniture are often designed around their presence. For example, the main TV

I ask friends with special skills to help me from time to time. In return I help them with things I know how to do. If they ask for too much I simply explain that what they want will be too time consuming, is out of my area of expertise, or

Single sensor face rec is already above 95% on surveillance cameras, which do not have ideal positioning, even when they are intended specifically for face rec.

I used to do a lot of shooting with my Canon 5D. I had thousands of dollars in various lenses, plus some specialized flashes, etc. It took great pictures, but all that gear was bulky and heavy. 99% of the time I wasn't taking pictures

"Towing the company line" evokes a much more brutalist image of workers dragging a giant rope, pulling the company along. So it works either way.

I recall interviews from that era too, where the interviewers didn't fully comprehend the jobs they were hiring for. "You know how to write source code, don't you?" Answer: "yes, but I mostly prefer to write fully c

That already exists. Lilin is one of several CCTV companies implementing on-camera YOLO. Axis, Hanwha, and i-Pro all have options for you to run your own software/models on camera as well.

Hailo is one of the newer GPU startups, so not surprising that many people have not heard of them yet. So far price/performance/power consumption of the Hailo products seems to be filling a rater large gap between the Amba stuff t

Having dabbled in some deals like this, books can give you some general ideas, but by nature they won't be current. A lot of things change quickly in the market, especially for smaller deals like this. A company or market segment that

It really does feel like there has been very little originality in movies in the last decade or so. Too many comic book movies, sequels/prequels, and remakes. Couple that with the price of movies going up, and many times audience annoy

At those distances, yes. I’ve gone through the certification process for even higher power units. IIRC you needed direct exposure of several minutes at much less than 1meter from the source to even begin to have risk.

Yes, but the "electrician" can also be an individual homeowner. I've done my own electrical work at times, including permitted and inspected work. One of my last projects was wiring a 50A 240A subpanel, on a dock, over saltwa

People here seem to be confusing the functions the charger handles vs. the functions the BMS in the car handles. This is no less safe than any other DIY installed EV charger.

As the post explains, the Reliable and Safe bit are really handled by the car, not the charger. This is a neat project, but it is also another example of an Arduino being a bit overkill for what is going on here.
