Both, but largely through marketing. It's hard to address concerns in the product if the mechanism to collect the data in question doesn't exist. Our goal is to even the playing field when it comes to accessing spatial data and I

That's certainly a good rule of thumb. The mental barrier is difficult to overcome, and you can't win them all. Distill the message too much with "We make money by selling data" and you'll never see a customer, but

This is a PR issue I'm dealing with right now. I'm the founder of a nascent startup that uses commercial flights to crowdsource aerial imagery on a massive scale. I was anticipating skepticism around the feasibility of our approac

Valid point, but the e-commerce side of the business benefits immensely from these tools (I use FullStory every day for debugging, it's a life saver). I wouldn't say that simply having a replay script on your page is the scarlet l

I tend to agree. I run a QA team for an e-commerce startup and started using Brave for manual testing about a year ago. Chromium means the same dev tools I know and love, the extensions I use for debugging in Chrome work out of the box, Bra

I'm the founder of a startup that's working on precisely this issue; high revisit rate and high predictability of commercial flights + internal window-mounted camera arrays = vastly more data at a fraction of the cost of earth-sen

This has been happening for years. The deals some vendors offer on weed leading up to 4/20 have always been jaw dropping.

I could see Facebook taking the approach Google did with Alphabet, but one can only guess what that would look like.

They're definitely not standing on bedrock as far as the defensibility of their complaints go, but they may argue that they didn't receive the full benefit of the time they were entitled to in the sponsorship package. It's ha

> The Walton Family also happens to own much of First Solar, a competing provider of photovoltaic cells. Where is foul play implied in that sentence? To me it reads like more of an aside than an allegation of wrong doing. The stakes of t

Talk about putting words in someone's mouth. The original comment merely points out an interesting note in that both parties have their own interest in solar. You make so many specific counter-claims to a simple sentence that it seems

Another step in the right direction, but satellites will continue to be the bottleneck to unlocking the full value of maps.

In what sense? This seems like a great tool for trend forecasting, and hedge funds are constantly spending millions for this sort of data.

It might not be as ideal as an organic friendship buI wouldn't say it's a bad idea outright. Only a handful of my friends would call themselves entrepreneurial, and those who do are pretty deep in their own domain-specific startup

You're correct that drones are more expensive than satellite imagery at scale--I'm currently working on a startup in this space that cuts the cost of imaging by between 100x and 10,000x depending on the target location.

This is awesome. How did you work out the position of the maps so they overlay correctly?

Curious, would you get any use from a service that updates specific map coordinates (that you, the customer would define) rapidly with a new image? Say 10-20x per day? I'm not a salesperson or anything but I'm working on a prototy

I've used a tool similar to what you've described here called https://www.pullrequest.com/ for code review, though it's fairly new IIRC and not cheap.
