And worse, their auto-tagging algo is not good enough to differentiate between similar siblings. I am routinely tagged as me, in photos of my brother, on my brother's timeline.

I suppose the idea is to have both profitability and growth.

Programming skill is a hiring desirability multiplier because the context of the work is usually just as important as the work itself. Eg. Accountant -> Code Camp -> Tech Consulting -> CTO for accounting firm.

In terms of legacy strictly from an USA auto industry standpoint, I think Elon would find a Telsa led Ford appropriate. In terms of Elon's long term goals, I think a merger and revitalization of Ford would win him huge political points

I think he'd be open to a reverse talent takeover (in the same way that Pixar talent took control of Disney Animation when Disney bought Pixar). I could see Ford merging with Tesla in a few years after Elon isn't running the day t

This is why I hope that Lyft/Uber/? purchase and run their autonomous fleets as planned. I can keep my gas engine car for longer trips while taking advantage of super low cost robot transport for day to day stuff.

no, most Americans live worse than that. They finance their entire life. The education, the house, the cars, the furniture, the food, the everything. If you want it all, and have the cashflow, you can have it all for a set of minimum monthl

The existence of an armed, trained civilian population prevents the current government from going completely insane with the vast power they've thus far been allowed to take and selectively abuse. I'd love to see the people take s

It is easier and more economical to mill with a cnc. It is probably far cheaper even to just walk to the gun store and buy a rifle than it is to 3D print something similar.

I'm on a blackberry passport and have also not seen this change (yet). I'll be proactively moving away from facebook as a communication / messenger as they'll more than likely close these loose ends.

Per the author, the '? -> ?? -> ???' is actually a small amount of non-categorized data. (I listened to Robin give a short presentation on this earlier.)

The past few days has seen a spike up to prices near the all time high. The media focus on the DAO and ETH in general has no doubt brought in new speculators and investors.

I just wished that they hadn't killed Talk on mobile. I had converted all of my friends from AIM/MSN to Talk, but that was the last time everyone actually used the same messaging system. Now people use Skype/Facebook/Tal

It's really three levels: High End - Desktop ( Vive / Oculus ) $600-800 Console ( PSVR ) $400-500 Mobile ( Google / Oculus / ?? ) $99-?? Console vs Desktop vs Mobile -- that's the real issue. The leap from Mobile V

It seems like someone said, "why don't we have a WhatsApp competitor?" and so Bob and Steve made it without thinking about all the different messaging applications already under the Google brand.

Voice controlled computer interactivity doesn't appeal to me, and double unappealing is the skynet factor to the whole thing. Home automation doesn't need nor should it require signing over your privacy.

Yeah - I lost the password to my DogeCoin wallet within two weeks. I tried all the regular combinations of things. I tried all the unusual combinations of things. I tried old passwords. Gone. Until they have a way to read archived memories.
