The author has explained the problem with eventual consistency and the CAP theorem, but he is trying to blame the problem at least partly on CQRS/ES - the problem will exist independently of what pattern you use if your system is distr

how will they reduce braking dust? I thought they were primarily only going to use the brake power for energy.

About half of pollutants come from brakes and tyres - http://publications.jrc.ec.europa.eu/repository/bitstream/JR... Bringing in electric buses will not decrease these pollutants. They will also not remove enough

Of course it will affect them - they will have to ensure their drivers are fit to drive at all times. Drivers will not be able to work extended periods of times and Uber may be forced through this to pay for holidays + sick leave.

1. Not necessarily - 4 short people behind 4 tall people will do the job. But I would argue London platforms ARE overcrowded already, rather often. Mostly because you can only control where people go a certain amount. If everyone gets off m

TfL IS not-for-profit. I.E. any profit it gets is reinvested in London's transport infrastructure. Sky News hasn't really done any investigative reporting here, the information is publicly available and most interested people kn

Without recognising single persons, it would be much harder. You would have to consider that a person twice as close to the camera takes up 2x as much room as someone 2x further away. Generally, it can also be very hard to see people on a c

I believe that some more modern trains allow TfL to measure the weight change of carriages under passenger load, which can be used to estimate numbers, but imagine the cost of trying to roll that out on all trains and platforms... The fares

This has been suggested before, but the media exploded - people don't want to have visual recognition systems looking at them.

When TfL have previously suggested visual recognition software, the media exploded. So they took a step back.

Only access point connection time, hashed MAC address and time are logged. The only thing that can be found out about anyone, is where they were, at what time, possibly who they were (all of which can be obtained from CCTV footage), and (ad

This is currently the only method available to get good estimates of # of people on a platform - unless you would prefer visual recognition software. TfL needs this information to be able to stop overcrowding on platforms.

How are the topics assigned? Two Show HN posts I have posted recently (that are Open-Source and Javascript) don't have the relevant tags attached and I can't see a way of attaching them.
