Having parents who expose you to these things and instill curiosity and passion puts you ahead of 99.9% of people who graduated from a CS program if you decide to go through that yourself. Direct early-life hands-on experience is a huge pri

You will have to convince the people who actually run these platforms that that is true if you want it to be a feature of reality. It seems only you are here speaking in hypothesis while everyone else is speaking about facts of the matter.

What it means is, if it is ever created, the privacy engineers will be acting in a guidance and advisory role and not actually literally building the product.

It was mostly a rhetorical question given this obvious fact but I figured the idea of due diligence in pursuit of science did come up at some point.

I'm familiar with some parts of that team and I can say there is no capacity for development of proof-of-concepts. They are not engineers in the way you're thinking.

That happens anyway in a market, you do not need to inject a third party in order to get that signal. What is your angle, why are you so adamant to defend this behavior?

The market already does that.

Forcibly divesting consumer from producer, creating two separate markets where before there was only one, is rent-seeking. They artificially created the conditions that justify their existence, and if they were to stop existing or otherwise

You're right that it comes down to just domain modeling, but institutions that don't require some kind of democratic consensus (say, inventory systems for individual companies) do not always need that unless you plan on exposing t

Call it what it is -- rent-seeking (or maybe in HN parlance, "MitM attack"). Every single economist from Smith to Marx hates these people.

Has anyone done modeling on what capabilities for which frequencies it would have if it were an antenna? Has anyone gone back to reimage it?

Amazing how the countries without all those amenities ever made it out alive... you're conflating dependence on those technologies with necessity of those technologies.

Would have been a pretty straightforward response with maybe less statistics. Increase production of masks and provide temporary assistance for people who would otherwise spread it at work. The most we could say tech did was allocate just-i

A lot of people are either bad with their finances or have too much money to care (too often both -- see the existence of DoorDash and ilk). They won't put that effort in. Replaceable batteries are an outlet that provides those folks w

Trees are net-negative by larger margins than any other technology we have invented, pretty much any way you want to quantify it (efficiency per kilogram of tree/tech, efficiency per dollar of tree/tech, etc.).

This kind of direct air capture that relies on consuming CO2 from diffuse, open-air atmosphere conditions will never be effective enough to be worth it. The concentration is simply too low, and the atmosphere too large. The costs quoted in
