And google search. I was googling around to try to understand how a trailer suspension is designed, and I had pinterest on the first page. Do people actually buy their engineering explanations from Pinterest?

I know I France short term vacation rentals is way older than airBnB, we have an entire infrastructure, vocabulary and legal framework around it. Americans are always baffled when they come here and start getting away from AirBnB.

I think the EU made a really good computer system with the VAT, it’s way easier than sales taxes accros state borders. For curious people: every business entity has a VAT number. VAT has to be paid to the customer’s country (for individuals

My thinking is that it could be more subtle. (in the US) In very suburban streets in the middle of the day, nobody cares about turning left in an empty street. In more congested and wider streets it could get more delaying. But if the plann

well, in the old world nothing is perpendicular, and all the roads have a different width and single direction without any clear pattern, so not getting lost is already a strong goal, there is very limited BW to optimize for time :)

Funny, I had a boss do the converse. We were a very young company with zero customer, and we had a small net 30 bill to pay. The boss said: I have to put a reminder to pay it. Well, without any hope of earning money in the mean time, there

It’s true, I guess it’s also about looking for success somewhere else (mems and weird elements) instead of direct competition on integration size.

it's the same in the US, it's just that the US government buys the products, while the French state buys the stock.

what's weird is that Europe has never been that bad, there are ST Microelectronics MEMS and MCUs everywhere.

on average US citizens retire later than Europeans and die earlier afterwards.

same for self driving cars. Some West Coast CEO affirmed that he was training his autonomous cars in SF rather than AZ because he wanted to do "the hard thing". He'll have a surprise when he sells his system to India. with hi

It’s still a crap show. I’m working on a beaglebone, i just decided to stay in the PRU for now, because connecting a timer to a DMA to spit bit patterns to a GPIO port without using a processor would involve connecting sections of the manua

it's pre-ordered food for a single meal, not a last minute order. There is a very big single reason the model for last minute order has limited efficiency: how many stops can a delivery driver make before the last delivery is unaccepta

as a developer you generally can't directly pin numbers to your contributions. A very long time, I helped a company get into a new segment of market. I have no number to give, it's just that the CEO, told me so. I'm not even

Can you re-use the due-diligence of the previous failed acquisition?

it's the same thing, the tax increases the price for the buyer.

A pet peeve of mine is also the "bullshit cloud". For example OnShape is basically running a CAD software on a virtual machine. Fusion 360 is saving files on the networks or launching batch jobs on a farm, 1990 banking style. The

sorry, I misremembered, I used a Z-order path in the end: https://github.com/nraynaud/webgcode/blob/gh-pages/webapp/cn... I guess I decided that some order was better than random.

A few years back I had a traveling salesperson problem, I googled a bit, and somehow didn't find anything interesting, so I just created a random loop, and randomly mutated it until it got better. A few months ago I discovered a neat l

How do you keep track of the shutter clock in this kind of system? For example the camera clocks at 60fps, but the image processing is a few frames late, the gyroscope clocks at 4kHz, the accelerometer way slower, lidar is a slug, etc. Then

They don’t play a hold music for them? I’ve had Brands interactions on Twitter where they ask me to go into private, then ask for my phone number, call me and send me directly to a holding queue, i guess it would fair to respond in kind.
