@Jinyibruceli Hi thanks for the question! HN flagged your comment, so I'll respond here. You said: "I tried building a hexapod last year and the hardest part wasn't the printing, it was figuring out which servo library worked

There are open source versions of everything done within a GCP API call, but it requires multiple machines and lots of data to build an NLP model to be as fast and accurate as GCP, and cloud computing is relatively new compared to OCR.

Also AFAIK GCV uses techniques beyond better OCR that greatly help accuracy. It does image fixing, boundary detection, NLP, spell check, etc.

But other services don't connect to your friends. So I guess it's more like, paying them not to use any intersecting public roads.

Isn't this sort of like estimating the value of Ford by paying users not to use roads?

Investors care about revenue.

Wrong, it was the best selling overall sedan in US by revenue, including gas cars.

Depends on how you calculate it. Toyota sold more car, but in terms of $$ spent, Model 3 is the most popular sedan in US.

You don't care about profitability anymore? Now you want to talk about demand? OK. - Tesla is mentioned in multiple current top rap songs. - Elon has the most viewed episode of the most viewed podcast. - Tesla is working on a rocket po

I guess by definition, as long as they lose money, they lose money on each Model 3. But really what you're implying is, when Fremont is a closer to full produciton , each Model 3 will net a loss. Best engineers say no. https:/&#

Yep. UX is our jobs (as devs), it should be our main focus and sacrifices of it made minimally. For better or worse, does seem the days of Apple engineers working weeks on perfecting an animation behavior are largely over.

Have the people who complain about javascript page load performance read about netflix.com? Netflix uses JS to render their landing page server side. No client JS necessary. How can a page load faster than raw HTML?

Russ, whats the value of UX on products that don't exist yet? DevEx is the egg that creates the UX chicken. I love your attention to UX, but clearly developer experience is above user experience in simply a chronological sense.

We have high order functions in JS. Which are similar to decorators.

Yea it does. But if you fraud multiple companies you're increasing the odds one will detect you. This is why companies don't rely only on their own data, they do credit checks, and buy data from third parties.

cc is a measurement of displacement, only useful for combustion engines. Equivalent for electric motors would be Wattage.

It's common for gig companies to limit payouts, because it lowers the cost of fraud, which is common. A smart charger charges for multiple companies, and could easily hit higher payouts that way.

You're talking about Lodash. But the remaining issue is of locality. If you use a package as a standard library, you still have to send that package to a client for them to use your app. Whereas a 'real' standard library woul

That's just like your opinion man. Maybe they will love it. Having a name that stands out is generally good marketing actually.

Here's a better metaphor. If a local city inspector is looking to catch a pizza shop selling liquor without a special license, and calls to order beer, the shop owner recognizes the caller ID, lies, and says he doesn't sell beer r

I sympathize with your viewpoint here, but recognize that a 'crucifixion' may help change the culture and retain Engineers and improve their daily lives which would help Uber deliver it's product faster.

Thats not how I read it. They tried to push out the last few women, while scheming to keep them? Why hire them in the first place? I take it at face value, Oblivious Employees/Managers thought that not paying extra for women's jac
