If company is trying to hire people in other countries/cultures to save some buck, they should be mindful that communication may be a bit more of an issue, and try harder, too. Otherwise they'll have the same issue after hiring an

Yeah. My "budget" for similar scale project (sw, fw, hw, enclosure co-design) in high school 24 years ago was about $200. I'd have loved to have these kinds of resources/lab tools access. I even made [private, so that to

Pinebook Pro boots in about 10s to DE and that's RK3399. Pretty sure RK3588 can boot even faster, considering the advantage of PCIe/nvme storage that can run at > 3GiB/s. Software load times stop being a constraint at thos

I don't understand the relevance of the question. I thought the therad is about innovation, not "startups" (what's that? american style "supergrowth or you go to trash" VC funded companies?)

Not envious of multi-billionaire's companies gathering capital, IP, knowledge and infrastructure for huge scale modern day private Stasi apparatuses. Just bitter.

Europe is quite varied, you'd probably need to look at individual countries and do a more fine grained comparison between those, because they have their own differing policies on both military spending (some just buy gear from outside

There's innovation without having to constantly kill and terrorize your neighbors and provoke wars to test your tech.

Encrypted data are noise now, maybe, but may be decryptable in the future with advances in computing. So all this depends on what you worry about.

I mean this lists MIT license as opensource license, when it's clearly not, because it doesn't at all mention source code. The license just talks about "software". Anyone is free to publish only binaries+docs under this

News organizations have no responsibility either. And I don't see why publisher of news even if they just re-publish should not be held to some responsibilities, like eg. abstaining from nefarious manipulation of content people see on

Yes, it's still mumbo jumbo. And yes, I acknowledged your view in advance in the last paragraph. Therapy school can have simplistic invalid theories of functioning of human beings, and still be useful to some people. Just like religion

No. CBT is still a mumbo jumbo of concepts and approaches that have no relation to reality (like any other therapeutic school), other than "if you follow these practices, you will maybe get better". You'll not be able to prov

Yes, and it would die rather quickly if it would be a typical low power 2mA LED. Cam sensors can consume quite a bit of power, certainly more than 6mW at 3.3V when active (easily 200-500mW). Even if it would not die, it would be irritating,

Yeah, we're well past a point where "phones" have NPUs powerful enough to locally process "sensor" input and produce decontextualized probabilties of potential interests. It's going to happen sooner or later an

Yeah, that's nonsense. Pinebook Pro is well supported by Linux kernel and you can thus put any aarch64 Linux distro on it. And it's been this way for the last 3-4 years at the very least. I've been using it daily for 3 years

Parties can withdraw from a treaty. There's such a thing as state sovereignty. :) They can withdraw based on treaty itself or based on law of treaties (art 42) What happens then of course only depends on what the sovereigns will want t

Starvation vs starvation to death are different things. War crime of starvation was directed against 2.3 million people without distinction, incl. ~1 million children. I'd say that's bad enough.
