   Lol'ing at the downvotes, don't care. Because it is not so focused on people as much as it is with "people in cities." Cities are the future of low carbon emissions. So specifically simulating and visualizing the happine

   This is breakthrough. I'm telling you, it is a game changer, and it was coded by women -- which is also significant. Simulation of human life combined with reality capture and BIM software are going to change the game. So-much-so that

   Hi, I just finished revising my cover letter and applying to the intern position. Looking forward to your reply!

    I have met a lot of companies doing natural language processing, who are looking for BS and MS.

    I imagine someone at Western Union had the foresight to see this risk and save enough cash to pay the bill when it came.

    I think it got cancelled because it is a real startup now. Let me explain! Put yourself in CEO's shoes: you have employees who love working for you but you need to get them a paycheck. From that perspective, it is easy to see that it i

    Hey guys. So you do consulting for drone companies looking to solve a particular problem, by adapting your previously made software system?

    by jmcmahon443 10y ago

    This is a much easier problem to solve. There are certainly different ways in which objects can collide though, so that would make the problem more interesting and complex.

    What is the payback period YC looks for? i.e. How many years does it take for a home-run to become a home-run?

    What are the pros and cons of crowdfunding, vs. self-funding, vs. VC-funding for a hardware startup? When should I be using which sort of funding?

    Depth/stereo cameras are the future, I agree. But the conclusion of this paper says that you can cascade the results of this algorithm with the stereo algorithm fairly easily.

    Academics aren't always concerned with making your job easy, they have lives too. They may have struggled a lot for their results and their code is still a living document, or they sell it to a company. Maybe their grant ran out and th

    I see where you're coming from. I think the truth is actually dependent on the particular institution and particular academic. For example, OpenRave is the result of academics open sourcing their research. Update: Someone posted a li

    I love open source, but there is a very good reason why academics generally don't release their code. They are scientists: they are best at testing, explaining, and documenting nature. Code is an engineer's job: making it as fast
