I understand that these systems must ignore stationary objects or they'd break all of a sudden at every road sign you encounter, but is there no way to tell a road sign (albeit a big one) from a fire truck that is 20 times bigger than

Sure, but it was just an example. What about if I was with my lover, and I didn't want my wife to know? If someone from the staff knew my wife, how do I know they won't send the video to her? What if I was drunk and tripped or mad

Is a restaurant considered a public place, though?

Not in Italy nor Poland. Also, what difference would that make? I already know I'm being filmed, the problem is that there is no control over how that video is used.

I don't think anyone believes companies can operate without money. However, Mozilla said we should use their software because they care about users and user privacy. It makes sense to therefore complain when they break that promise arg

Perhaps not actively, but I bet in case of a hot woman or something weird going on they'll know where the monitors are. I also have two separate family members that have businesses with cameras, and they both look at what's going

I was talking about this with my girlfriend at dinner tonight. While we were eating, I noticed a few cameras that got a view of the whole restaurant, and wondered: of course filming the restaurant might be useful in case of a robbery (?) or

Oh, give me a break--seriously. It's a trend of our times to get offended for everything, to the point that one can't say anything without being politically incorrect and having somebody complain. Can I have an opinion and express

You have to go to semi-major, techy cities. I'm in Wroclaw and it's perfect for startups, Warsaw for huge corporations. They even speak English among themselves.

Sorry, as the topic was Norway I was only talking about Europe. As for the language, I'm Italian working with devs and I've yet to find any dev that doesn't speak English fluently. Not the same for regular people, but not sur

Sure. So that you can run out of money in 1 mo. instead of 6 in S.F. :-/ Startups that need to prove their value proposition before the money runs out should come to Poland. Very techy (Warsaw, Wroclaw in particular), and you have 2 ye

Whenever I watch documentaries about the food industry, I find myself unable to eat meat for at least 10 days. I bet that if we were reminded somehow (like for cigarettes), lots of people will eat a lot less meat.

I've been to good vegetarian restaurants around the world, they're fine but I still like meat better. Not every day, but I like to have a choice. > If your only understanding of imitation meat is "those burgers you buy at

I'm in Poland--otherwise I'd love to, but I'm not saying it's not good, just that I don't like it. I can take you to some BBQ place that will take _your_ socks off, too. You know, to each his own :-)
