1.5 kb/s at 5 cm is rather bad. Assuming 24fps (typical smartphone camera) sample rate with QAM-256 modulation, shouldn't the bandwidth be at least a magnitude higher even after error correction? They have 16 LEDs, assuming half

By that logic, most of mathematics are "algorithms" because they map one space to another. That is absolute nonsense. An algorithm is a sequence of steps, an implementation. A trained model is only an algorithm in the most generou

How much did that domain cost?

It is curious that traffic-specific law enforcement is rare outside of the major cities.

No? Server and cloud resources have almost zero marginal cost at most medium sized and above companies unless you are doing something truly intensive like video encoding. For most web apps, you can go a long way by just scaling horizontally

Sorry if my comment came off that way, I meant the opposite. I am a strong believer in making software engineering more accessible and as anti-accreditation as you can reasonably get. I even believe that the current medical accreditation sy

I have the opposite experience. My experience with junior engineers out of the modern CS education is that the current leetcode based system is impressive at churning out a backend engineers who can write functional boilerplate code and alg

Because then it will be regarded a "softer" engineering domain and the market will implicitly price the alleged lack of rigor accordingly. Just take a look at the gender ratio for "human computer interaction (HCI)" stude

Careful, you will get downvoted and flagged if you bring up Realpolitik and international relations on HN. Many idealistic people here get real sensitive about subjects that do not conform to their narrow world view.

Lookup the term Implied Volatility Surface, it is a visualisation of an option's volatility and value across time (usually derived from black-scholes I think, assuming european style options, american ones use others like binomial). Fi

More importantly they need connections to the US government. If you want true sovereignty in the Monroe doctrine sphere of influence, then you better have friends in Washington.

UI quality is much higher but the bindings are all third party software, not official Google products.

That's cheap compared to the Bloomberg terminal. High quality news is not free (news is not necessarily the same as journalism).

International relations does not differentiate between Ukraine and Libya in terms of sovereignty. To deny one is to deny the other as both are internationally recognized states.

The valuation is surprisingly low given the brand, FireEye bought it for 4.5B back in the day. I would expect a higher sales price.
