It's not all about getting paid the most for some people. I think a challenge for the case of physicists that want to work in that field is that there are more of them than are jobs. Compare to programmers (of all levels), where there

It's analogous to an autopilot of an airplane. It keeps going straight, direction, speed, altitude. An airplane can fly straight and level right into an airplane. For some reason (partly Teslas'), people look at a tesla autopilot

Obviously both kinds of experience can bring different perspectives. There's not just one way to do things. You want someone who has faced some challenges, had some failures, had to recover, things sometimes worked out. That works for

So tell us more of your story, your perspective. I worry our world is going to be full of people who worked hard in often but not always blue collar jobs and then suddenly there wasn't enough work and people start losing their jobs and

We need standards for ways to recognize when the computer controls have chosen to override the pilot, why they are doing it, and a way for the human to override. This is hard, not easy, because there are so many things going. One place to l

Humans aren't really capable of making 20 year plans to invent new technologies and implement them on a schedule. We don't know enough about how it works, we don't know what of many choices to make. What you can do is keep wo

This looks great, maybe I'll go on May 23rd when it's in theaters. A new doc on B-17 using unseen footage, the real experience of flying (and some who died apparently) as a gunner.

Apparently many or all of the current self driving cars don't do well when running into fixed (ie stopped) physical objects. It must mean somehow in the way that they detect things, they must have to discount stopped objects, and '

I'm glad it was a 'minor' breach. But where is the blog post from the clever and witty founder, about not trying to hire the top 5% of security engineers because everyone is?

Looks interesting. If someone uses you, can they export the side comments in a usable way? Can they import them from another product? If they stop paying you, what happens to the comments?

You can't draw conclusions from one case. Treatment could have helped him, but he was a menace in that state and shouldn't be released. So you can use this one case to argue either way. I'd sure not want him released. Most pe

There aren't a lot of 'official' published tpcds results. Until a little less than 2 months ago, there was exactly one published result; it was at the 10TB scale. I like your site and comparisons, but you only have 100 gig an

I think a big point of the article was that these more recent relational dbs (like memsql) figured out how to make distributed joins across multiple shards scale really well - that's one of their core value adds. So you can shard your

You can also play with it quick and easy by getting a premade docker image, see https://docs.memsql.com/quickstarts/v6.0/quick-start-with-do... . Disclaimer: I work at Memsql.
