I don't really understand. If one accelerometer fails for years and nothing is reported it is a big failure on the design team, probably with criminal responsibility.

Depending on GPS for main navigation is also very bad idea.

In the near future with the cost of today one fiber optic gyro and accelerometer you will be able to buy ten. Software will improve and redundancy like it has done tremendously in the past making airplanes the safest of transports precisely because it does not depend so much on fallible humans that get tired and need to rest,pee and other biological necessities, have ego(that blinds their judgments) or get in love with the air hostess,get bored(some flying could bore you to tears) have problems of vision or hearing with age, get distracted(and lose situational awareness) or ill or intoxicated by food.

It is easy to forget that death was what we had when humans were in charge. We are talking about thousands of times more dangerous than today. So the title is yellow sensationalistic garbage.

The only reason humans have not been completely replaced is because people naturally trust other people more than machines, landing on side winds automatically requires engineers taking responsibility for it(and nobody had sone so, so far), and someone needs to be in charge in the plane at all time(for example what to do if a person have an stroke).
In perpetuity? That's pretty tough to justify when they aren't charging monthly fees to apps that have a one-time purchase price. Does it somehow cost them less money to host an app with a one-time fee?

If the argument is around billing... spotify is more than willing to take that on themselves, in fact that's what they're TRYING to do, and Apple is rejecting their app because of it.
yes, they both summarize the scientific method in a clickbaity way
You are like the first person ever to say that Acompli (now Outlook) sucks.
I guess every false conjecture can be made to pass it. The trick is to make the set of items searched in large enough.

For example, to show that no elephants exist, start with the (infinite) set of all possible chromosome sets. The proportion of them that produces an elephant is zero. QED.

Examples from mathematics:

The number 42 does not exist (logic: pick an integer. The probability that it equals 42 is zero. QED)

There are no even primes.

There are no primes.

There are no integers.

There are no rational numbers.

All numbers are transcendental.

Continuous functions do not exist.

There are no regular polygons.

QuantifiedCode | BERLIN | GERMANY | FULL-TIME / PART-TIME | REMOTE

We're a bootstrapped deep-tech startup and we build the next-generation of tools for understanding, improving and creating software code! Our vision is to automate away all the boring parts of software development.

We're looking for people to join the core team and to help us on the technical and non-technical side. We're currently steadily growing our revenue streams and are about to launch a new, massively improved version of our code-analysis technology, so it's an exciting time to get on board. For the right candidates we are willing to offer a significant amount of company shares as well.

We're passionate about graph technologies, machine learning and programming language design and we love contributing to and building open-source tools. We work remotely and see our company not only as a way to make money but as a core element in our own happiness, hence our top priority is to provide a good work-life balance and help each team member to grow and achieve mastery in what she or he does.

We're trying to build a diverse team and we don't tolerate any kind of discrimination. In our interaction, we use the HackerSchool / Recurse-Center social rules (https://www.recurse.com/manual) and we try hard to provide the best and friendliest working environment possible.

So, if you're passionate about programming and want to help us to build the next generation of code analysis & transformation tools, please contact me:

Microsoft launches its first SharePoint mobile app, but only on iOS for now
Apple isn't preventing an Amazon app from existing! Amazon is just not willing to create one under the current terms-and-conditions.

The terms are the same as iOS: if your app allows in-app purchase of digital goods, then you have to use Apple's payments system and Apple gets their 30% cut.

On iOS, Amazon Video works fine, Amazon works around the 30% by not allowing signups within the app, and by not providing a link to the Amazon website for signing up.

Amazon is using the AppleTV as a test case for fighting against this policy. They can afford to do that because so few people have AppleTVs compared to iOS devices.
Five Questions for Gerry Gunster, the DC Strategist Who Ran the “Leave” Campaign
This is an extremely good point.

Adaptation, classification, a change in how people define themselves?

You point out what I think would end up being a rough patch, but one worth going through.
As I've said before, I'd love to have an open source dumbphone. I know there are some big duct tape and PCB examples out there, but something polished and minimalistic would be fine with me. I think there would be a solid niche market in the current climate. I wouldn't buy a new one every other year and it would be way easier to lock down.

You can't buy an open source 2d printer, but can buy and build 3d OSS ones no problem. In like kind, I don't think people find dumbphones interesting anymore, sadly. Actually, why print at all when you can "Google Cloud Print"?

How so? Everything is different from VRML (programming model, penetration of the internet, actual VR devices, etc). The idea that random websites can produce a nice experience on my Oculus is a great one -- this is how the open web can embrace a new technology early on and make sure we don't get app silos again.

Karat | Europe | Talent Operations Manager | REMOTE

Hiring top talent is a critical activity for all companies, yet the way organizations interview candidates is broken. Interviewing is a time consuming process that is rarely data-driven. Here at Karat, we see a massive opportunity to transform the interviewing experience for every candidate and company.

The Talent Operations Coordinator works at the heart of Karat’s product and operations. You'll play a crucial role in defining and managing the Karat user experience.

The fact that they agreed to build one in Moscow really amazed me. It felt exactly like the old space elevator startup that was "Visiting potential landing spots near or on the equator for the earth bound end of the tether." Or put another way, I think the hyperloop idea is pretty cool, but if the maglev train experience is any indicator, its 20+ years before you have something even close to a commercial deployment. Singularity or not, engineering a system of that complexity takes time.
Just tangential, does anyone remember the name of that Secondlife-like persistent 3D world in the 90s?
I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

> Designing a manycore CPU, which the Post-K processor will almost certainly be, with a simpler RISC core as its base, is inherently more efficient than trying to do that with a more complex architecture like SPARC64.

Honestly, ARM is a very complex architecture these days. There's somewhere in the neighborhood of a thousand instructions. It's very close to x86 in complexity. Tons of cruft built up over the past thirty years too (although it was a cleaner architecture than x86 to start off with so it has that going for it).
I think you're misunderstanding something.

The specific, supposed violations weren't mentioned in the article. It was just mentioned, as an aside, that Spotify claims Apple is pressuring them into forcing all iOS Spotify users through Apple's pricing scheme.

If the violation were that Apple was forcing Spotify to pay Apple 30% for subscriptions, then that would be a very clear breach of the spirit of anticompetitive laws in the United States, considering the existence of Apple Music, and considering that it would force Spotify to either raise its prices and reduce its consumer appeal or take a substantial, perhaps fatal, revenue cut.
The Trade Desk | Full Time, Onsite | San Jose CA, San Francisco CA, Aliso Viejo CA, Ventura CA, Boulder CO, New York NY, London UK, Sydney AUS

Hiring: All levels of software engineers, as well as front-end focused developers who are comfortable with data-access design, development and optimization.

You might be a great fit for The Trade Desk dev team if

* You are a full-stack engineer who wants to work everywhere, not just a small subset of components. Experience / interest in working in a variety of layers and technologies within a SOA is a must for our team. This includes: client-side AngularJS / JQuery, MVC-based web architecture, external RESTful APIs, distributed (and in our case, highly scaled) request handling services, no-SQL and relational SQL databases, many-layered data pipeline (e.g. data bus architecture, Hadoop / MPP data warehouse, etc.) that moves hudreds of thousands of items per second, and data visualization (e.g. Tableau). Experience in all these layers is not strictly required, but we do like to see experience working in more than one, as well as eagerness to work on projects that might slice through them all.

* You have product-driven software development experience using a modern, object-oriented language. Memory-managed languages are best -- .e.g. C#, Java, Python, Ruby, etc. We do most of our work in C#/.Net, but specific experience here is not required.

Cool stuff about TTD:

* Our platform processes 3.5million+ queries per second

* Work with the best engineering team in AdTech

* The combination of huge datasets, high throughput, low latency and amazing scale means that we're constantly solving some of the biggest challenges in computer science.

* We've grown faster than any other adtech company in the industry, and have been recently recognized as one of the fastest growing companies in America by Inc. Magazine and Deloitte.

* Amazing Company Culture (We're very proud of our 5.0 rating on Glassdoor)

* Top-tier benefits

I think they meant how Apple is able to update iPhones without first getting permission from the phone carriers, whereas on Android & Windows Phone the OS updates for devices can be delayed by the carrier imposing a certification process before it is released.

A completely fair and pretty objective analysis from my perspective.

On the other hand, everyone has a calling or personal interests. These may be formed under any number of formative life experiences which shape an individual's personal bias.

Perhaps in the case of this guy, it's less about the money and more about the "game". The game being the cat and mouse chase of outsmarting the casinos, winning when the odds are stacked against you.

Could this person be doing something that is better value for time for himself or society? Probably, but maybe he'd never fulfill his full potential without the right motivation/inspiration...
I get the impression that the process of seeking isn't so much directly about how one relates to publishers but how one relates to one's self. Rejection is extremely hard for most people to experience and so fear of rejection can determine a lot of one's activities. "Seeking rejection" is a way to be not-determined by the need for acceptance.

Thus it allows someone to shape their writing that accords with their own vision. Hopefully a good thing (but no guarantees).
