What would they be plugging these USB flash drives into? Underdeveloped countries / regions have very low penetration with traditional laptops / desktop computers. But nearly everyone has a smartphone of some kind, which has WiFi.

Can you find any specific examples? I've only seen that apply to severance agreements where you're being paid some additional sum for that non-disparagement clause. Never seen anything that says money or equity you've already

Even if a human sees the bike slightly sooner, the reaction time is so much slower that it's either a wash or the self driving car is likely still faster. Median braking reaction time for humans is ~500ms[1]. [1] https://pub

Number of hops definitely matters more usually. For example I'm about 150 miles from Azure East US 2 (richmond, va), and at the speed of light that should be sub 2ms round trip, but actual latency to it is ~30ms. But I'm sure I&#x

They're going to license it to cloud providers and make money from that. This lets them avoid all the other headaches associated with becoming a cloud services provider while still getting some income to pay for this work. https:/

While I agree it's expensive it's not quite apples to apples. GPU memory is very very expensive. A100 80GB costs $10k msrp (> $15k on ebay). An RTX 4090 only has 24gb of vram at $1600. Even if you do dual 3090's + nvlink f

Technically you can still do that by launching chrome with some special flags or with a chrome extension. But I do agree that CORS is being hijacked/abused for this purpose. But at the same time it's an important security feature.

It's much simpler than that. Drivers accept and then they cancel the ride themselves if they don't like the destination or the earnings. Normally you would penalize those drivers but I imagine with Lyft losing market share they li
