Yup, it's amazing, the number of places they can sell ad space, or use to collect data to improve targeting. The games you play and the platforms you play them on will definitely help fine tune ad targeting. It's just Google clawi

Steve Jobs feels relevant here. The first iPhone wasn't built by Steve. He didn't design components in CAD, he didn't write software, he didn't create icons in photoshop. He was the art director with the vision that made

I feel like this is too deep into the conspiracy domain. There are so many videos and moderators, that, of course, there's assholes in there. But the chance that this one specific video ends up on the task queue of the fraudulent moder

Only 90 minutes? For me it's at least 3 hours to get to Class 4 on the Bortle scale. Class 2 is probably more than 5 hours. Only alternative is the sea. I'm planning to take a trip to a Class 1 this summer, it'll be hard to f

Great question. I've had an issue with this with a tool I built myself. I hope it takes it into account! Edit: Just noticed this in a blog post from the creator: > Since there are more posts per-day nowadays it's also useful to

I feel like it's kinda the opposite. Tesla recently graduated from EV maker to car maker. There's honestly no car currently on the market that matches the Model 3 in its price range, whether electric or not. Acceleration and comfo

I assume you mean EU. However, while EU countries have made a lot of promises and plans, they're not actually keeping them either and people are complaining about impact on their daily lives. At least the US is transparent in not wanti

Waymo is only better in a very well-known and predictable setting. You can't pick it up and deploy it instantly. It's geofenced to a small part of a US city.

Just going to go out on a limb and say the IP is owned by an investor. Paying 12 people isn't cheap, so that's why I assume there was an investor involved.

Or the answer could be exactly that the answer is in paragraph 1 of the man page. In stead refusing the man a fish, teach the man how to fish.

And their only driver to decrease costs is profit, not lower prices. If those private organisations could run it cheaper than the government, the rest would end up in the pockets of shareholders.
