A few years ago, I was called by the manufacturing team to troubleshoot a simulator bench of our own system. The bench had been developed 15 years ago by a subcontractor and was working happily since then. The issue was pressing because it

It is creepy in the sense that it reminds me that every action I am taking online is monitored. And in this particular instance, I don't perceive the added value. Basically when it is useful, it is cool, and when it is not, it is creep

Creepy experience from this week. We have hired someone for daycare, I only have exchanged a few mail with that person. And now, her husband is in "people I know". I don't have shared my mail credentials with Linkedin, but I

Educating someone from 1 to 20 is not free either. Being able to attract educated people is historically a big competitive advantage of the USA. It is better to get someone who has already graduated, but getting someone about to graduate an

It does not tell us if it has some side-effects, like making you blind. Chlorine probably also kills MSRA in a petri dish.

The most puzzling aspect for me is the reason being given : to fight "Idolatry". Seriously how many people are still adoring Sumerian gods? It would makes some sense if it was still an active religion, but there it sounds absolu

So is it mostly about French territories ? I don't think that the Vanuatu or the Fiji are a huge threat on the global scale.

This is the first example I can remember of a "War on a Service". But likely not the last.

Even if the service is dead, you don't fear the confusion with "kippt.com", who was a service use to keep bookmarks ?

The issue with OSM is that the information level is uneven. Dense urban center, you have every bench and bin mapped. Go into the countryside, there is not even the buildings. It might not be an issue for a taxi company that is mainly operat

I am not sure your comparison is apt. Strange things in the sky tend to be viewed by much more people than animals that are actively hiding in unexplored/hard to reach areas. I am totally ready to believe there are plenty of things we

I think a good reference point is the Chelyabinsk meteor[0]. Just afterwards, we had plenty of high resolution videos from dash cam, smartphones, etc, with different angle, time and location. I would expect about the same in quantity and qu

Just to let you know the context for the second drawing is that some far-right magazine had compared the Minister of Justice to a Monkey on the front page : http://www.france24.com/en/20131113-france-racism-black-mini..

The fundamental issue with your reasoning is that with 7 billions people you will always find someone feeling insulted. For example, plenty of people believe in reincarnation, don't you think it is slightly insulting that meat eaters

You're right, the graph looks ok for a few split seconds and then have a weird offset to the right.

It sure seems this is the current trend. However, I am not sure that after a few millennia, people would not get bored and start experimenting with more extreme activities like base jumping or space travel.

I remember reading that even if we found a cure to ageing, our life expectancy would "only" be around 10 000 years because of various accidents (car crashes being probably the most major contributor).

Interesting, we have also noticed that our daughter is now saying the resigned "Well Ok" with a sigh (or whatever the English translation is) as the eponymous character. I had not noticed the link to the tantrums though...

What is the roadmap after 1.0 ? Is it going to evolve quickly ? Or will it be the right time to join since things are going to be more stable ? My question sounds obvious but depending on the project 1.0 can mean very different things.

Nothing as dramatic : if you don't have a strong Google footprint, it is less likely that the system will recognize you automatically as human, and you'll have to answer the picture question.

And a MRI needs an enclosure, I am not aware of small portable MRI systems that would allow you to image a single leg, or breast. X-Rays are more dangerous but are more versatile in some cases.

This is rather a memento mori , a stark reminder than it could happen to any of us at any time.
