It's good to be paranoid about it but at the same time it's quite a cool thing to offer people. Also I think a lot of the processing is done in the browser using deeplearning.js, so I don't know how much is sent back to Googl

I've got two refurbished T430 laptops. Core i5, 8GB RAM 250 GB SSD. Both work great. Unless you need a GPU that should be fine. Much better than a cheap new one. Build quality is worth it when you're using it all day long. But if

Yeah you get your front end devs creating beautiful UIs which can be directly ported to desktop. The other thing of course is that Electron apps start out as web applications. So they already work perfectly in a browser.

The post speculates 2037 - 2080. So yes similar timescales from the 70s til now.

Slightly more in detail was his approximation that brain could perform 10^21 FLOPS vs 10^15 currently. But yeah 2080 is within my daughter's lifetime. My 1950s house I bought will probably still be standing. I think it also coincides w

The $24M per year (23MW) for the electricity for the Tianhe-2 was quite shocking. This is against the 13W that the brain uses: https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/thinking-hard-cal... So the brain has a million

Yes, this wouldn't work for the most serious cases of depression. It might help for those who are at a stage where they're willing to try something.

I typically have odd thoughts that are often wrong. But I really like quote from 'The Martian', "let's science the shit out of it". I don't know if it's possible to science your way out of depression. If i

No more deep vein thrombosis. Or screaming kids kicking the back of your chair cause they've got nothing to do for 10 hours. London to Sydney would be a massive improvement because often you have to stop halfway. Plus you get all the b

At the moment there's lots of time wasted walking to some gate at the far end of a massive airport. There's only one company here and one or two flights that go straight up and don't need to taxi. So the travel time in the bo

E2E seems important as a way of making profit to reduce the cost of the Mars tickets. Also means you get more usage and testing of the rockets.

I thought the iPhone 5 had a pretty good iFixit score. The Teardown was a 7 out of 10 [0], which is one of the highest scores they've given. [0]: https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/iPhone+5+Teardown/10525

I think in Belgium they specify how much the recycling premium is when buying something new.

I do wish more people had this attitude. There's enough other things to fight about than who uses what code.

Commented out code, is not a comment about the code. It's just someone not clearing their trash.

Yes, I'm using Headspace. I've been following it for just over a year. I either spend 15 mins at the start of my day or just after the daily standup which finishes at 11am my time.

You can log it via rescuetime.com. 53% of today was in software development. That's a good day. It typically goes between 30% - 45%. This is baring in mind pretty much all I'm supposed to be doing at the moment is coding, ie no su

The potential for VR of course is that they're the ones who create the simulation.

Watching the video it's almost impossible to tell what the flickering of the lights mean. A much better idea seems the front brake lights mentioned by a couple of other commenters, plus a requirement for headlights if the car is on.

Given it's a safety feature the main reason not to do it would be if somehow it made things worse. Even if the effect is almost negligible you're still going to save a couple of lives per year. Once LED lights are more standard an

Driverless cars won't do this... at least until we teach neutral networks frustration.

by icc97 9y ago
That seems a marvelously simple idea! People understand what brake lights are and it's relatively simple to see the car slowing down that corresponds with the lights. Then assuming the driver doesn't use the hand brake then it sho

Whether or not this car drives itself it's still damn ugly. Tesla is going about making electric cars sexy. So you won't find me interested even if it sings too. Never-the-less, for all the folks the that don't mind ugly cars

Rather clickbaity title. As much as I dislike Trump you can't blame him for the current inertia of the two countries.
