I would think that's the reason why Boring Co. cancelled the project then. They probably need to get some "MVP" tunnels up and running as soon and as cheaply as possible.

If it works, they can sell it to governments I assume.

I'm not super familiar with how cellular networks operate, but isn't there a way to authenticate the session with the tower so that the IMSI doesn't get transmitted to a snooping party? If we do it with laptops and wifi APs,

I haven't read but just a summary of the book but even that was helpful in letting me reframe some of these issues that I struggle with. https://www.amazon.com/Mastery-Keys-Success-Long-Term-Fulfil... The key message t

I suspect you will continue to be disappointed with that expectation. Management of resources, motivating employees, and political savvy are all very distinct skills from writing code.

It would be nice if I could hit continue from the keyboard so that I could do the whole tutorial without using the mouse.

I'm not saying it isn't inertia. I'm saying that Thaler is right in saying that is a semantics issue. Call it what you want, the actual behavior is real.

Nitpick here.... There seems to me be to be significant difference between "loss" in terms of something already tangibly owned and "loss" in terms of missing out on an opportunity. Of course marketing schemes for "a

Be careful with that. It's easy to get overwhelmed when you least expect it. Let yourself relax and get lost on occasion. It will do wonders for your mental health.

Not necessarily. Those statistics would imply that there is a huge number with little to no savings at all which is what the article speaks to. Medians will move towards zero more quickly than means when as more zeros are added to the data

Interesting how many of the salaries in these samples are tied to college towns. Cambridge, College Station, Knoxville, & Chapel Hill just to name a few that I saw.

It does have to be useful to the owner of the land who is getting taxed on it and has some investment in the land.

Generally found to be untrue. Lots of different running styles and gaits. Runners generally take the "shoe for every stride" approach now rather than a "one style fits all" mindset.

oracle has an offering for smaller businesses called netsuite. I think dynamics is also suited to smaller players.

You make a lot of good points. I think we should also consider the fact that if you invest your money rather than spend it, the firm may not invest directly into capital projects for increased productivity. So much money is returned to shar

I've used FF every day for the last year or so on my MBP since they started making all of the usability improvements. Works as good as if not better than Chrome with tons of add-ons installed. uBlock Origin, Privacy Badger, etc. Switch

I guess I don't understand the scenario where you're being forced to answer this guys question. Why can't you come back to that question when you're not spending a week trying to move a button on a browser?

Broadcom wants to kill this part of QCOM's business allowing for Chinese companies to fill the void.

Question one: QCOM is incentivized to continue r&d (chip-making) b/c it yields patents which generates more cash than the actual chips themselves. Nobody would force them. QCOM's focus is on sustaining the company rather than

Think about the trees that are used to produce paper in the same way that you think about wheat that is used to make bread. There will always be demand for bread, so it makes sense to manage your natural resources responsibly. No natural re

Believe I heard about a project a UW student did predicting crime in San Francisco based on volume of vulgar tweets in a given area. Not sure if it's on github anywhere but you can always start with that idea. Nothing about specifics o

Thanks! I was just skimming. I wonder if the anti-inflammatory properties of coffee are enough to help ward off AD. Not sure if the phenols interact with the proteins they discuss here.

I'm a firm believer that data science should be pulled out of IT and put into the business. However, storage is so cheap that you should never NOT collect data if you can. It's better to dump it into a data warehouse and wait for

I agree with your assessment that a lot of times the business problems have been put into a form that lends itself to exploitation by machine learning. Sometimes a company has a lot of data that's actually useless. Most of the time, I&

eh, i think technology can erase some of the need for human trust. Checksums, public/private keys, blockchain, etc. should all be able to handle verification of authenticity. As a result, i'm sure we will soon have CAs for more

Would you rather: Hire a developer with a salary, benefits, and tax to build this module plus project mgmt time for requirements building, testing, training, documentation, sustain, etc. Pay $60/month and 1/10th of an FTE to plug
