The real story is how web forums are the worst way to converse with real people all across the world. How can we at least get back to the NNTP type of control we had in the 90's? HN is teetering on failure, and I'd just like to g

My takeaway opinion: Sad to see that Khosrowshahi did not end the self driving program at Uber. Yes, I know hindsight is 20/20, but that's exactly why an incoming CEO is brought in. Everyone was saying autonomous vehicles was Ube

I was thinking more they intentionally installed cheap dashcams so that they can release poor quality videos that would favor their narrative of events and get ahead of the story/blame.

1. What a clear failure for self-driving/collision avoidance technology, especially in conditions (night time) that we've been told are much better for machines to "see" in. 2. "safety driver" useless if he&#x2

I'm hesitant to just blame IBM and call it the day. What about the U.S. healthcare.gov website? Do we also blame CGI Federal and Accenture? There's probably blame on both sides, but it seems nowadays that "it needs to be a

hg was slow. if linus, at the time, felt otherwise, it might have been hg that "won" when bitkeeper was dropped.

I poked around to read more about this and the gov't did commission a report to look at what went wrong: http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/phoenix-federal-governm...

too bad carville didn't recommend palantir do some precrime analysis on politicians. but then that would be biting the hand that feeds you. surely palantir wouldn't stand for that.

The kettlebell swing is a great way to train/fix your hip hinge. Squatting is also another movement/position we in the west have seemingly lost the ability to do well.

It sounds like if they would've just asked him, he might have allowed them to place the camera on his property, or arranged for some type of monetary compensation.

Has something like gcc symbol versioning been talked about? I can probably sense the sneers from some, but I'd imagine there could be an evolution/"go way" to implement it.

The feature I miss is designing a route, saving it, then having turn-by-turn navigation guide me through the route.

I think the moral is... do not talk/sign/call/anything, walk, no run, to a good lawyer well versed in the area of: "I've just won the lottery, please help."

uggghhh. and these person-to-person services are terrible in the u.s. I was needed to help pay for a friend in the west coast for rent where the landlord took venmo. venmo denied me for who knows what reason. while this is going on, the l

There's no mention if you can disable this or opt out. I'd rather them have a way for me to disable the floating videos usually on news sites.

He could also be a stickler for detail. Do you not think he could easily chew out the web designer for being presented with a blank page with javascript disabled? I wonder if he was asked what his response would be? IMO, there are good re

It makes me wonder what the message is for a real emergency. Also, the article mentions the day-shift supervisor thought the test was for the leaving night-shift operators, so he wasn't there to presumably tell his day-shift that there

Agreed. We won't ever get autonomous systems. I don't think that should even be a goal for production cars. We'll get roads/areas retrofit with signals to help cars and I think some type of coordination signals/b

CNN is in its MTV transition phase. Remember when MTV played videos? We'll be saying: Remember when CNN did news? I don't blame CNN; the issue is their funding doesn't allow for complete independence. They need to shift p

Here's hoping Byford can turn things around like Ravitch did. I can half-picture Jamie Dimon getting on board.

I'd like to know what the facts on the ground were that led to have an roe of shoot to kill. Something did go wrong with the process leading up to this clusterfuck. I hope it's identified and fixed. There _might_ be some change

The issue exposes the trust issue of the CA house of cards. You, as the user, are really trusting in a third party to "do the right thing".

As far I'm concerned, I've never had "net neutrality"... If I wanted to run a server (web/smtp/etc.) on my consumer level broadband account, I was not allowed to per TOS. For me, real "net neutrality&quot
