It might not be okay to you, but isn't that exactly what GDPR is supposed to do?

I was just imagining it would be neat to find 3D areas: go upstairs, down a hall, downstairs, and have it compute the volume of the 3D area. The barometers available on devices would allow this to happen, but I don't know (don't t

Sorry, I meant with a barometer. Mobile devices usually have a barometer that provides significantly more accurate altitude information.

Is there any altimeter access available through the browser? Would be neat to use this in 3D, could be done with a native app but I don't think in the browser.

Yeah, the article content doesn't hold up the headline. It does not sound one bit like Lyft is investing in its drivers. That would have to mean something a lot more grand than "cheaper oil changes" or better car maintenance.

From a user of both services, and not a lawyer - Yelp has burned all benefit of the doubt by seemingly basing their business on deception. I find using Yelp to be extremely difficult as I end up frequently reading an advertisement instead o

This makes it clear why our current capitalism doesn't work. The ruling class / rich and wealth people and businesses could extract more wealth out of the middle and lower classes than they do now, if the lower classes were mor

The article takes an exclusively financial look at 'worth it' and completely ignores both education and human connection as an aspect of going to college. I get that the author is writing about money and money alone, but the headl

Okay, but that came as a problem long before Bitcoin arrived on the scene. In fact, bitcoin itself is a response to an overreaching, overextended global system of control led by banks and other corporations - the same ones who have ravaged

The two things are not mutually exclusive. Indeed, as Nest connections broke last night, Google collected, analyzed, and used more information than ever before in its quest to learn and know everything and keep it all organized.

Good to know. In that case, assuming 100% of the coal arrives by rail to the Port of Oakland, and there is an overall net increase in shipping activity, it stands to logical reason that there might be an issue with changing truck traffic fo

We have a global conversation about technology and money backed by large scale experiments. The production value is the basis for the future of trust and money in a digital world. More productive work has been done by Bitcoin devs and users

The experimentation of ideas around what money is is certainly not "nonproductive" and to dismiss it like that is silly. He might not like it for any reason at all and that's fine, but to call it nonproductive is ridiculous.

It seems they are all images - not OCR'd, and the task requested is to manually read and type summaries. That's useful but it seems like a good place to start would be to OCR it and provide a searchable copy.
