Actually you already have mostly self driving tractors. However wheb there's that much money at stake, hiring a driver to hit "stop" if something goes wrong is a very cheap option.

Well, most devs I know would rather use python for server-side and scripting, but you're not wrong. Python never found a way to do cross platform UI as well as react native; it's on every browser; you don't have to unlearn br

I think you're reading the article wrong—pandas is a symptom, not a cause. That said, it seems foolish to ignore the clear data science use case. But that's also been a theme for at least five years now.

That's because single quotes used to be rendered as a right single quote (as you might have in a contraction), and the backtick was angled much less aggressively. That is, it looked much more natural at the time.

Many places don't have local micro farmers markets, and even if they did, groceries sell a LOT of food. Are you sure your local farm and meet demand at an affordable cost? You seem to be reductive.

I imagine it depends on the supply chain of your grocer. Again, new england might have quality, fresh, local apples. Same with washington.

I remember this going back at least to The Little Lisper, though they more accompany the text than serve as explanations themselves. The aesthetic certainly leaks into the lessons.

Depends on what you're trying to measure! Arguably we still can't measure many things accurately.

Much of is a nice hedge word here; it could be anything from supplying power off wind peak to providing the majority of power on average.

Perhaps, but realistic scenes are bounded by the number of lights and triangles more than resolution. There are heuristics and approximations to get around this, but I think we will only be able to fake a subset of the human visual experien

I mostly disagree—it's quite common to have intellectual interest in technology. It simply requires a lot of sacrifice in terms of social life to fit in with your career. Also, assuming positive intent will get you far in life, especia

> will rapidly develop AR/VR that is indistinguishable from reality Wow you sound like me from the 90s. You severely overestimate GPUs and underestimate the human eye.

Wow, reading this is like a blast from 2004. DHTML? JScript, the propriety IE javascript dialect? All without the marketshare of the time, thankfully.

Also, at 13 you probably have the time to do lots of projects. You won't have nearly this much time when you need to feed yourself. Enjoy it!

I am not quite sure about it not being good typographic practice, but it's sure weird historically to mix faces of different weights. Furthermore there is already emphasized (italic) text; it's not strictly necessary for prose. I&

Part of the problem is that it isn't an expiration date, it's a use-by date. They imply entirely different things, and it is great for consumers because it provides real penalties for selling bad food. That said, people need to be

Is there large demand for this? I just cook when I'm home and ensure to turn the oven off when I'm done. I'm sure there are people out there who appreciate the automation, but a) how many and b) how much would they pay for it

Sure, but thankfully you don't need a whole coin for most transactions. It's not an inherently meaningful thing.
