Gait analysis has been around for awhile. I guess this technique just makes it even easier. What's crazy to think about is Gait Analysis from orbit https://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2008/09/gait

So if it's a ticketed event (i.e. you can't enter without a ticket), would eventbrite need to buy a ticket to access the event to record it?

This would make a great AskHN. It would be interesting to know if anyone on HN in their early 20s or lower were first introduced to software development via scratch or some other means.

Sounds similar to what SafetyCulture[1] do. It's a great idea and good to see this space opening up. [1] https://www.safetyculture.com.au/

Great advice here. Agree on a process. Do it slowly. I work with a lot of legacy code and have felt overwhelmed at times by all the different coding styles that have been used through the code base and not know when to refactor or simply cl

I try to cut pig products out of my diet because I can't kick this comment someone said to me once, "Pigs. As close to eating humans as you'll get".

With you on this one. I have had a similar experience with a semi-famous scientist that I used to looked up to and admired. They made some completely incorrect personal assumptions about me and I was left feeling upset and depressed about i

I have a new product. It's called FlockOff. Basically it is a laser connected to a battery connected to a solar panel that shoot a high intensity beam of (UV? IR?) light directly at the Flock 24/7. Also available is the FlockOff M

Similar boat to everyone else. Have had an FB account for ages. But gradually used it less as opposed to more. Barely use it at all now. Social Media has just never really my bag. I don't really see the value in deleting it as I don&#x

Where I work we have a custom made system that was inspired by Yahoo Pipes. We are in the slow process of rewriting it. Also this reminds me of and IoT solution I was shown recently. https://nodered.org/

Seriously though. Next step would be to force people to install locks that have a master key that only intelligence services have and can only use for good reasons. If you're ok with encryption back doors you should also be ok with gov

The Talos Principle. It rewards divergent thinking. Probably has the most easter eggs I've seen in any game. Great story as well. I believe a sequel is also in the works.

A better money spinner would be to take the cryptolocker approach. Engineer a relatively benign gene edit that makes life a little more annoying for someone and offer to send them the fix for 1 BTC. And actually deliver on the promise. But

Not an evolutionary biologist but my guess would be it has something to do with niches in an ecosystem and lack of evolutionary pressure to change in an environment in which you have reached some equilibrium. Chimps for whatever reason wer

This is something that isn't often mentioned, but from what I understand this is actually kind of a one time deal with fossil fuels. I was under the assumption that the Earth is not likely to have another carboniferous period. The impl

Can I save notes on my device while in airplane mode and then have them sync when I have a connection again? I don't always have an internet connection when I want to make a note or write something.

Bear in mind that brand equity is often earned. I feel that Apple have genuinely earned over the years. However, they now risk losing a lot of it due to the fragmentation of their ecosystem.
