Not entirely true. Costs across Canada are getting pretty absurd. Air travel, mobile data, wages, shipping, consumer goods, housing, insurance https://www.reddit.com/r/canada/comments/8gui6r/are_canadian.

I have very similar feelings in Calgary although it's improving slowly. But I have spent a lot of time in silicon valley and it has recently felt a lot worse, dangerous and gross. I hope my next trip brightens my spirits but it's

Sadly software is still treated as a cost center for a lot of companies. It's depressing how many forms you fill out having to say you're in "I.T."

I moved from Canada to London for a few months and I did appreciate the tech culture compared to silicon valley because it's not the #1 industry so you get a lot of balance. However the drinking culture is absurd and unhealthy overall.

I had the exact same experience, it was really freaky and I had to turn it off.

Having used photoshop content-aware-fill quite a bit, what was very interesting in the video with the eyes and the hairline was that it wasn't just filling in with what was already in the image, but also what it thought should be in th

Graphene has a break length of 4000 km (the length were it will break simply under it own weight) and a space elevator needs to be 35000 km long.

Not viable, graphene isn't strong enough.

That's the problem with VCs in general, and it doesn't fit their business model from a math perspective if you are low-growth. There are some investors who are trying a new model (see Indie.vc). The alternative is either to go wit

I think the idea of reddit collapsing entirely is much harder than a single news site for instance. It's not one product, it is hundreds of strong communities that have gathered from different places on the web. There are discussions a

I would be surprised if you haven't been prescribed beta-blockers. This worked wonders for my performance anxiety. Dropping my heart rate artificially miraculously makes me less worried.

By coinbase now owning these lists, there have got to be some privacy concerns...

Uhh... wow. He's former A16Z so he would likely have devised 21 while he was working there. Seems totally plausible to put the invested cash into BTC.

There was a section of this bridge on display at the Autodesk Gallery in San Francisco. Very heavy :)

Is it okay for everyone to be posting snapchat screenshots to twitter while the shooter is still active? Doesn't that put police officers in danger by pointing out their locations?

Uber has built tools to track and avoid police. This is NOT below them.

What is striking to me is I haven't seen anyone talking about evasive maneuvers. The car must have been able to see the person, and the road looks empty, why not swerve?

You either kill a deer or get killed by a moose... at highway speed.

I do wonder if perhaps Uber made the video darker before releasing. Or used a camera that is not the main sensing camera. Because I would hope the cars are smart enough to increase ISO to get more detail at night time.

by fudged71 9y ago
The problem is the sensor cost. You are sacrificing pixels for information/depth, meaning you need more pixels for the same result. Most people aren't willing to go back to a 2MP camera when much better image quality cameras are o

This is a very privileged perspective. Facebook spent years getting billions of people on the platform and those users haven't left due to lock-in. They are connected to their families, their businesses, their friends.

This matches my experience driving elsewhere. You need to adapt to the context, the car should not drive the same way everywhere.

Although it's comforting that this exact situation shouldn't happen again in an Uber autonomous car... there is no mechanism to share that learning with the other car companies. There seriously fucking needs to be a consortium for
