Too many CS postgraduate programs just feel like engineering ones. This is why chosing a proper advisor is so important as your intentions should be aligned. Even then, there are things you might need to do to satisfy your program requireme

It feels he is not really wrong on many of his points, but this ain't a solution that he is proposing. Technology is not going away, we need to learn to live with it and have it as a tool to better our lives. It feels that today techno

I confess I only worked on small projects and all the movement/trajectory/obstacle avoidance functions were implemented manually, so this didn't cross my mind. It really makes sense to rely on the ROS packages, I will look wh

I felt the same way during my lectures. I wanted to use Python because I had already implemented the fuzzy functions I needed for obstacle avoidance and it is overall simpler, but most people on class used C++ anyway.

I wonder how easy it would be to integrate this to ROS for real robotic simulations. Anyone has experience in the matter?

What happens if two cars with LIDAR drive toward each other? Isn't this one of the problems google self-driving car had, where one car interfered with others?

Excellent reply. One could expect HN to be less susceptible to this fad that is blockchain. To be fair, the author never said it was the only or best solution, but articles similar to this could make use of a note mentioning that there is n

It is not a better currency in any reasonable way besides illicit uses. To be honest, it would even be hard to classify it as a currency. It is not a currency, neither a store of value. The blockchain technology is also not really technolog

This is an interesting article, if you liked I would reccomend heavily taking a look at Nick Bostrom's Superintelligence. Even though the book has it's own share of problems, it is an interesting approach to Artificial General Int
