It's also to be defensible in court. If an opposing party can make the valid argument that "They leave the doors wide open and scatter IP willy-nilly, why wouldn't the IP get leaked?" it makes it harder to argue "Pe

As much as I'd love to hear about the details of the drama as the next person, they really don't have to say anything publicly. We are all going to continue using the product. They don't have public investors. The only concer

And isn’t that the problem? Why do I need to translate my question into an optimal set of keywords that will give me what I want while minimizing unwanted results? Google search was a great stepping stone and connects you with the web, but

I can't relate to this statement at all. I actually enjoy grocery shopping. I look forward to it every week. It gives me an opportunity to pick out what I want to eat or make during the week. I love cooking and discovering new food, so

How do you know if the people to your left or right experience sensations the same way you do? When they look at the sky does their mind paint the sky with the same color?

What's mind blowing is that you can extrapolate where this is going to go. Eventually, you will be able to generate full movie scenes from descriptions. What's interesting to me is how this is so similar to human imagination. Give

Yeah nothing in the UI is connected directly to a sensor these days. The UI is just a display for relevant data on the CAN bus. Sensors have redundancies and detections in both sensing and communications so that the receiving end knows when

So why not a tax return for all lower income brackets? Why should someone with a B.A. be fed and not someone with only a high school diploma?

Because your car loan was approved based on your credit history. A student loan was approved on a gamble. Now the lenders are trying to find a way to guarantee their returns by making everyone else pay.

Big companies top priorities are investor returns, not employing the masses. The result you describe is dependent on many more variables, like product demand actually necessitating hiring.

Because if you for example you held off on buying a house to pay off loans, and the day after you saved up enough for your down payment, your buddy Jeff, who ignored his loans, racking up interest, making questionable financial decisions, s

The real reason here is that the lenders have the same view you have. They would rather lobby the government to force everyone to pay those loans than gamble on getting money back from students who struggle to get jobs with their degrees.

Yeah was going to say the same thing. I've been making kombucha for a while, and I have a process down where at the final stage I blend kombucha from various fermentation stages to get the mix of tartness, sweetness, fruit flavor, and

The best, simple, metaphor I can think of is playing out a chess game in your head. As in, you make a move, and see how the scenario changes, and predict the opponents moves. In chess, it's just 2D and one opponent or agent. In the rea

I was hoping that this article would go into deeper techniques than just interpolation and splines. I would be cool to see an example of how a Kalman filter approach would compare in terms of precision and latency. My expectation is that it

Could be, but not necessarily. It could also be the result of a logical and intelligent thought process. I think anyone that follows the data and truth will eventually come to an existential break down that reframes their mind. Especially i

I think at a relatively young age, I started having existential crises. Eventually I stopped fighting the darkness and accepted a lack of a god or afterlife, and accepted the ephemeral nature of life. As a result, It motivated me to reframe

Yeah that's interesting. I think incentivizing distribution of jobs might solve a lot of issue... but who knows there are always side effects and loop holes. I agree, might be worth an experiment.

If anything, by making devices like this accessible to the public, the end result is safer devices for everyone. Without products like this you have criminals, a small amount of enthusiasts/researchers, and government sponsored actors

Even so, how does free sunlight with longer transport compare to the cost of electricity with short transport. I imagine electricity, regardless of source, is still the most expensive factor.

First thing to note is that DC fast chargers output high voltage DC to the vehicles they are charging, bypassing the onboard charger. So although most are theoretically capable of charging many different cars at their voltage requirements,
