   The only difference between dev/stage/prod/whathaveyou with docker is the topography of the servers. For the (local) dev case, the topography is 1 box; an "all-in-one" system. This does not require you to have diffe

   Gnome looks nice, and has it's "own" look - but is nowhere even near the quality of Yosemite IMO. And talk about quality issues! Any given thing is way more likely to break on a linux desktop environment. I love FOSS and have

   I think this is a brilliant idea, and seeing what you've built I'm sort of kicking myself for not having acted on the same idea. It's the sort of thing that is feasible for a company to do on their own but is difficult enough

    You are right, it is a bit sensationalized. The 1.4M-by-Jan projection from the CDC is the highest currently and also seems to be the least official. CDC has stated this as a "worst case" scenario with no intervention. It's h

    On the back is gibberish explaining how he may be reached: a telephone number. A universal voice phone locator code. A P.O. box. His address on half a dozen electronic communications nets. And an address in the Metaverse.

    I wouldn't agree with any of those characterizations. I see him mention the team he has built and what they accomplish together rather frequently.

    It would be cool to mark segments for different speeds of hyperlapse, or normal input. Thinking about that I see what you are saying about a casual product. Anything beyond a uniform render becomes complicated. People would want to tweak th

    If the MSR researchers are here -- I'm curious what does it look like when bordering hyperlapse with regular input? i.e., if there were a video consisting of input frames at the beginning and the end, with a stretch of hyperlapse in th

    Oh I definitely think any sort of time spent stationary by a truck full of goods is a security concern. The places you mention are obviously the safest in the world but there are certainly people who will rob (burglarize?) trucks if given t

    I was thinking about this. Straightforward parking is easy to automate. With big-rig parking there are a lot of really variable situations around loading bays. Often ramps and poles and dumpsters that could potentially roll around. I think

    I think automation will happen sooner than we expect. 5-8 years seems likely to me. There is a hurdle with interstate trucking, where some states will lag behind in allowing it and providing the required bureaucratic support. But it is alre
