"With a properly run automation program, an entire category of jobs can be eliminated in < 1 year now" That seems..not right. Robotics companies like Bossa Nova have been at this since 2006-2010. That's a good 8-15 years a

Anyone know how this is handled between Boeing and Airbus? Can we mandate the same mechanism between Uber and Waymo?

Created a coin! We've been toying around with the idea of crowd-sourcing a lot of mapping (for augmented reality) and could use the ETH network as the basic infrastructure to make it happen. The details around pricing + scarcity mechan

I think this says more about the extensive tech-party/meetup culture in the bay area than any meaningful population statistics. Tech isn't even the largest industry in San Francisco [1]. As anywhere, you'll have a diverse set

I personally know 3-4 people who are loudly vocal against illegal immigration working at FANG. I'd like to control it myself. We just differ on strategies on how to do so. As long as you are not yelling at your Hispanic co-workers abou

Question: So does this mean, Tensorflow Lite will have worse performance on iOS than a natively implemented CoreML model of the same design would?

It would be interesting to figure out the sources of error here. I am assuming Pusher is able to get sub-100ms in pushing the data? I'm guessing the rest of the error is due to a combination of: a) GPS positional error (GDOP, deflectio

Use gazebo on the regular, but at first glance, only AirSim looks to use rendering real enough to test computer vision algorithms with. I do love that Udacity's simulator is in Unity though.

It speaks to Canada's exorbitant LTE data prices that just putting Wifi "everywhere" is what is required to make a dent in mobile/community connectivity.

Anywhere really (I particularly go to the west end), its the big difference you should note. AirTrain = Linktrain [1]. Take it to the alt-hotel (for free) right at the airport and grab an Uber Pool to save 50-60% of the cab fare and get dro

Seconded. Just finding good roommates saves more money than I'd have saved anywhere else. Unfortunately, mild misanthropy costs money.

At the Toronto Airport, Uber rides from the terminal into the city are upwards of $60. But take an AirTrain one stop to a hotel and it drops to $25. I think we need government regulations, but just like pure unfettered capitalism, it works
