When it is deemed necessary to test the vehicles on public roads after they have shown to be mostly safe, ALL of these vehicles should have flashing lights like any emergency vehicle. I'm stunned that when I drive in Texas, there don&#

I have been eager to explore the available tools for disaster relief because it seems like people scamble to DIY a solution for every disaster. I made my own Firebase relief matchmaking service when we had a 100yr flood a couple years ago.

I'm not californian but the crash test culture is terrifying. Companies are currently driving driverless cars on public roads with safety features turned off. They have not received any consequences even after a highly publicized video

I heard a statistic that the average commute across the country is 30minutes because people will always move far enough away for cost but close enough for travel time. I agree it could be possible to impact real estate if commuting is no lo

We had a hum in Calgary Alberta. It became the subject of an ongoing project in our embedded systems engineering course to identify and triangulate the sound.

That sounds like an awesome project

Yes I think a signature of self certification is all that's generally required to keep the accelerator out of trouble, but again there are accelerators that don't even know this limitation exists with the SEC. Blame Shark Tank and

I'm in the additive manufacturing industry, things are really heating up. But there are plenty of other opportunities in related fields that I've barely heard of. Aerospace, medical, defense, auto etc are all driving some big chan

This is an SEC rule for public solicitation... demo days can only be for accredited investors, plus it's easier that founders know everyone has been vetted. I know of accelerators that don't screen the demo day participants, and i

I feel exactly the same way about Manufacturing. It's a massive industry, there are a ton of viable new technologies on the market, but very very few investors are even looking at the early stage because they don't understand it.

I'm still amazed at some people's reaction to AirPods. They are small and sexy, but at the same time very weird to a large part of the population that isn't used to new things.

No I don't think it was specific. I believe he was just guesstimating the exponential power required to do anything more interesting than basic math. We were all rather young students at the time so I don't think he had a specific

Can't live without it. I travel a lot. Lately I have even been wanting an operating system that has maps as the main UI, or a majorly core feature. With the amount that I use maps, it is an absolute pain to have to switch to it all the

There may be many more potential uses of this data in the future. Augmented reality, indoor mapping, robotics, etc.

There are two instances where Google has not accepted my changes: 1) A restaurant in Vancouver was known for their oysters. I went back years later and although the name and reviews remained, the owners completely changed the restaurant. Co

I laugh when people tell me their address but say "Google maps doesn't show the right location". I go in and change it for them and they never have to tell people that again. Crowdsourcing is wonderful.

When I took a course on quantum computing in 2007 with a standford prof, he said that things would get interesting after we get to 128 qubits :)

My understanding is Canada doesn't have a federal equivalent of the SEC, but there are provincial bodies for the same purpose. I assume SEC reached out to the quebec securities group and quebec was convinced enough to take action?

With a 3D print category and multiple part uploads (for assemblies) this could have a shot at replacing Thingiverse. I think people are still eager to find an alternative.

Was it an MCor printer? Which prints did you use to correct for color artifacts in the print process?

Absolutely, that's a great idea.

My wife is a teacher and one of her students in grade 2 has somehow been seeing beheading videos (apparently on youtube but that seems nearly impossible) because they are left with an ipad for so long. I can't even begin to comprehend

Another huge concern is the fact that they are trying to push to market two completely separate 3D printing process technologies, and are valued at over a billion dollars before shipping a product. A few of their claims and marketing materi
