Both the noise and sight of drones is unpleasant. I can't imagine rich people wanting a stream of drones flying over their homes. One more thing poor people will have to put up with in the future.

When will humanity have enough sensors and computing power to give a similar forecast that Dark Sky provides today, but 7 days in advance? What will that system look like? It seems like it is a mostly matter of time, but I just don't

This is only interesting to think about, but this nuanced level of logic would not actually ever be programmed into self driving cars. Once you go past the avoid hitting things level, lawsuits from many vectors come into play, and high ris

Tesla design and formulates the batteries. Panasonic puts them together.

Tesla's battery tech is developed by Tesla. Panasonic is the manufacturing partner. Like Apple & Foxcon.

Yes, yes they are... they are far more durable than their counterparts. Remember there are may types of glass, including 'bullet proof glass'.

Perhaps it is encouraging then to see this first go of it be for transporting cargo rather than people.

Don't people travel? I have lived all over the country and currently love living in San Diego because I can visit areas of the country enjoying the seasons for a week at a time. A week of raking leaves, a week of shoveling and scrapi

Ugg, this is simply a list of cities cited in News Articles as being "The Next Silicon Valley". This isn't actually an article itself.

The networked transportation sensor suite is insanely valuable and it seems to completely be overlooked by both competitors and investors. Between this, the energy storage business, and obviously the vehicles, I am excited to see what they

As Anderson mentions in the talk, these features are rolled out in regular opt-in updates. Updates are not happening behind the scenes at some random time, although the article seems to imply that might be the case.

As Sterling Anderson mentions at the beginning of his talk, all updates are opt-in. There isn't anything "Secret" about that part. Video: http://events.technologyreview.com/emtech/digital/16/vi

I believe that these 'inert' features are installed with regular software updates and simply not activated while they are tested.

by pseudometa 10y ago
This article takes a lot of liberty in promoting the idea that "secret updates" are actually a thing. Sterling Anderson simply says “We will often install an ‘inert’ feature on all our vehicles worldwide,” And from that, the auth

I get the feeling they could simply interchange income maps for obesity maps and no one would know which is which.

It has been interesting to see how many friends and relatives have an initial "Why would I trust a driverless car on the road" reaction until I point out the idiocy of "other" drivers on the road. People believe they ar

Why would you want to use a credit card over cash, or checks? There are certain advantages. Not in all cases, but having it as an additional option may afford additional security, anonymity, and faster transactions.

For companies who are paid to analyze and predict the future, it seems they should have seen this coming from the outset.

The barrier to entry is the annual $100 developer fee, not the percentage of sales. I honestly wouldn't mind this fee being much much higher if the eliminated a lot of the crummy apps from the store.

From a aspiring indie developer perspective, I've never worried about the 70/30 split. I've been much more concerned with getting my apps visible to anyone. The app store is so flawed when it comes to discoverability (even as

This comes across as though they never intended to make an app for the app store and all along just wanted to call out apple on their term sheet. It is purely a moral stance. Which is fine, but the article is slanted differently.
