Why not just wire the Linux box to the car battery? Most after market dash cams do this to capture accidents during parking. Certainly a low power device is enough ?

Am I the only skeptic here? 2030 is a decade away, and lyft needs to figure out how to stay afloat NOW. It is not as well positioned as Uber on some important fronts such as diversifying its product offerings into food, prescription drugs e

The reason fb wont do this is because there is so little to show on the friends and family front, it will do nothing but drive users away and solidify its market positioning as a political news reader. To pull off separate feed fb needs to

The key question here is how will the recommendation engine behave. If they go down their previous path as using engagement as the sole KPI then it will be no different than news feed. To reestablish trust and shake off the regulatory scrut

I don’t see what’s wrong with this. Many retailers reserve some of their best shelves paces for their private label products, both as a form of differentiation and to extract higher margins. You could argue that Amazon is unique in that it

I don’t see how this will work in a real battle. If the ai is fully self contained with no communication to central command, then it’s like a dumb missile. Once you press fire, you’ve lost control. If the drone does require connectivity to

Facebook moderates a lot of content already. Read their community guidelines and almost anything that’s non advertiser friendly is not allowed. I agree fb should not moderate content too heavily handedly such that it wrongfully suppresses f

I remember reading the roaming deals are sweetheart deals that goes both ways. So similarity, the French telecoms would charge Canadian incumbents a very low price while roaming on France.

-Canadian telecom policy still revolves around "facilities-based competition", where it's believed that new entrants should build out a new network. Didn’t CRTC force the incumbents to sell wholesale network access to new pla

Let’s not first talk about what Facebook ought to do, but what Facebook can do. There is no such thing as absolute freedom. This includes speech, which is already regulated in our society. And as a society, we have spent ample effort to dis

Didn’t know they had original TV shows, but I thought at least they will build social features into Watch. Shopping on the other hand, is a private and individualistic activity. I feel this is far removed from their core mission.

Their website says they mostly sell to North American and European governments. I can only assume this is for offensive purposes, since they can’t patch the kernel/software even if they know how the exploits work.
