Thanks for an explanation. I was thinking in the direction of commercializing the map itself. Considering how many tech companies go in this direction. I don't know what I was thinking.

And I did downvote you, because when I read your comment, it seemed to merely be bashing on OSM, and didn't seem to be adding much value to the conversation. Now that you've clarified, I kind of regret it.

And yes, anonymous downvotes are terrible, which is why if I downvote I usually post a comment explaining why, unless somebody else has already done it better.
I agree that BB should have come out with a high quality stock Android phone years ago. They went down that whole QNX route, and by then it was already too late.

They've always made very competitive hardware.
My first thoughts exactly. I think I am below a 50% success rate with them. There was about a week and a half where _none_ of our Amazon orders showed up.

Prescribing it for epilepsy doesn't necessarily make it a healthy diet for your average individual as you are looking for different effect from the diet.
They say it's not a parlor trick, but it's nowhere near true holography or anything like it. True holography records the object's wavefront as a flat interference pattern, encoding the phase information from the object (and also creating a very precise model of its surface), creating a diffraction grating which can then be used to replay the identical wave when illuminated by a suitable reference source of light.

This is the only known way to create true images with real depth of field and parallax, and requires ultra high resolution to both record and display the microscopic interference pattern.

There is a good book https://www.crcpress.com/Ultra-Realistic-Imaging-Advanced-Te... that has the mathematical basis for which the real principle of holography could be applied, given a capable enough display technology, to re-create an exact replica of the light field/wavefront that is identical to what we see in real life. Of course, a single static image with sufficient resolution of about 3"x5" in real life contains over 100 GB of data. The information carrying capacity of light is amazing.

None of the current VR/AR systems (including MagicLeap) use anything close to what is required, and we are still ways off in both display tech and GPU bandwidth to even generate a single, static image in a consumer product.
I think it's a very similar effect, except the 'reflection' surface is also the projection surface, across 10 panes. They've also obviously used some interesting optics for projection surfaces. Might be light guides.
I do this but it poses a problem for, as an example, banking. When they ask you the answer to your security question over the phone and you don't have access to your computer/password manager. Let's say you're one of those weird people without a laptop and your account is frozen while travelling overseas.

And since Amazon is incredibly customer-focused, I have an easier time believing the positive anecdotes.
Helping KC0W – All Gear and Personal Belongings Stolen on Kiribati
Awesome! :-) (I'm thinking of the new cities project.)
While taking on this challenge will be something like building their own private Appalachian Trail, ambitious in its own right, I'll be interested in something more subtle that this article touched on, "upending the traditional relationship between seller and sender."--will we begin to see widespread shipping arbitrage[1]?

I like Mezzetta. Ingredients: Olives, water, garlic (cloves), sea salt, lactic acid, sodium bisulfite, and "natural garlic flavor"

They are large green olives from Napa Valley. I'm not that knowledgable about olives so I can't say more than that.
What software do you use for your internal admin panel / find trends?
And what stack do you have?
Back in the day, I used phpmyadmin to interface with the database with mysql but pretty much always built a custom admin panel.

What do people do now? Or is it still all custom?
Given a nice price-point (~ the cost of Netflix, which I believe varies from region to region), I'll be a very happy customer.

I have a beefy home PC that is showing it's age and I'd prefer to have a SaaS solution that I can access everywhere rather than role on my own!

So if you guys do release in the next 4 months or so...consider me a customer.
Well ideally everything should be perfect but if a 2x system cuts US fatalities from 30k/yr to 15k are you going to ban it?

Physics, years of evidence and common sense down voted on HN where solyent is seen as a good thing.
Compared to giving the US cash in exchange for goods and services, though? That's a much murkier comparison.
> And who are you to decide that that isn't a legitimate decision made by the users? If people cared more about security, they'd move away from Yahoo after something like this, and Yahoo would be more incentivized to keep this from happening.

Who said this wasn't a legitimate decision by users? Certainly I didn't and wouldn't say that. There are a lot of reasons why a rational actor would choose to stick with Yahoo--that doesn't mean Yahoo exposing their private data is okay.

The other thing to realize here is that users aren't rational actors. My grandma is senile--is it okay for Yahoo to expose her private data because she doesn't know they aren't secure?

You've arbitrarily decided that users have to take all the responsibility here, and that the only way we can judge or punish Yahoo is by users leaving. But a) in many cases Yahoo is the only actor with agency to make a decision, and b) there are other ways Yahoo could be punished for using that agency to make decisions that harm users.

> Your problem is that you disagree with other users - but that's totally legitimate, not everyone has to care about the same things you care about.

No, I don't think that I disagree with other users--I think that many people care about their privacy, they simply a) don't know enough to make pragmatic decisions on how to protect their privacy, or b) have other priorities. And this is beside the point--none of this makes it okay for Yahoo to endanger their users' privacy.

That is interesting. But the dry lease would survive cancellation of the CMI agreement, right?
"We need a good solution to identity. Right now most web services use 'has control of an email account,' while some others — to include email services — use 'has control of a phone number.'"

I nominate Oh By Codes[1], for obvious and selfish reasons.

We are currently working very simple, human (and machine) readable markup tags that you can put into your own, personal Oh By Code, which can then be used as your comprehensive contact token - and possibly for identity.

I just ordered a small stack of business cards that have nothing on them but:

0 x JOHN

and I will populate that, my personal code[2], with things like <pgppubkey></pgppubkey> and <phone></phone> and <email></email>. Then, instead of a cluttered up business card (or annoying, long interactions over the phone trying to spell out my email address, etc.) I can just direct interested parties to my Oh By Code which will contain whatever it is that they need.

Since the usable bits are in tags, you could do things like log into services, or address email, or dial a phone not with the phone number, but with the Oh By Code.

Yes, I am well aware of the enormous, almost insurmountable chicken and egg problem of Oh By Codes not being useful until everyone knows what they are.

Why do you assume people are lying, just because other people have different experiences than them? It is possible for both to be true. You sound like a marketers dream.
So the point I was making(and a little poorly on re-reading) is that latency is fine up to a point(about 200ms) as long as it's consistent with no jitter. Input systems -> rendering fall under that category, you don't have your TV dropping frames or delivering them late. You can adjust for a constant latency and "lead" it, which is why game design that's predictive works so well in multiplayer.

Latency sensitive players are actually large part of the market, any action based multiplayer game will fall under that category, which includes FPS games which make up a large portion of game revenue. About 10% of the market makes 90% of the revenue so missing certain use cases excludes a large chunk.
Impossible? No, but hard and requiring the willingness to do so.

Besides, it's not that difficult if the requirements are minimal best practices - the regulatory body need not even get involved until a breach has been traced back to someone who didn't follow the rules.

We're not trying to make security perfect, just deal with blatant disregard of user safety.

I suggest 3 to start:

1: No storing passwords in plaintext.

2: Hashed passwords must not be calculated with fast algorithms like MD5.

3: Hashed passwords must be salted.

These three things would have solved most of the major breaches everyone has heard of, don't take meaningful development time to implement, and so there is zero excuse for not doing them.
This doesn't explain the consistently slow and unhelpful support function.

For what it's worth, I stopped using or recommending Coinbase after issues being charged successfully, but then Coinbase failed to make the buy, didn't honor the quote, and took days to respond.

Coinbase is an obvious and mediocre idea, executed poorly. It's a testament to the SV hype machine that they raised enough money that they can pretend they're a real company.
It's still a pretty hard problem to solve, though. My experience is that it's taken Amazon about 3 years to figure out how to do their own deliveries in LA.

The first ones were terrible. They seemed to have no good fallback if the building's gate was locked and nobody was available to buzz them in, and stuff just got lost. They were customer focused, yes, but that just meant they shipped me free replacement stuff with free overnight non-Amazon shipping. Not the best experience overall, though, compared to getting it on the original date.

Fast forward to 2016 and they're pretty good here. Though USPS has been best for my building (and elsewhere people here are talking about USPS being the worst - again, it's a hard problem to solve for every area for everyone).
I don’t think the complaint about braces is looking at the right issue.

The issue with braces is that many languages allow multiple lines and indentation when there are no braces. If languages required you to either say "if (foo) bar()" ON ONE LINE or use braces, 99.2% of all the issues would disappear. Heck, I’d be in favor of a new C17 standard just to add this restriction.
It's in the interests of consumers and importers, and against the interests of producers and exporters. Given that 70% of GDP is consumption, consumers together have much more political and economic power than producers, so their interests tend to prevail when that interest is collective and unitary.
>Can I connect using Tor?
Yes, but voice will not work as Tor does not support UDP. We are looking at ways to work around this.
Coinbase CEO here. I think this boils down to a misunderstanding about what our product is.

There are some companies which operate purely in the digital currency world, and never store people's money. They are not regulated businesses. I'm glad these exist (and it sounds like this is what you are looking for) but this is not Coinbase.

Coinbase is an exchange that integrates with the traditional financial system to help people convert their local currency into and out of digital currency. I wrote a post about this here which may help: https://medium.com/the-coinbase-blog/coinbase-is-not-a-walle...

When you say Coinbase tarnishes what Bitcoin stands for, I have to disagree. We are enabling millions of people to get access to digital currency so that it can succeed. We do this successfully by playing by the rules in the existing ecosystem. You may not like these rules, but if you want millions of people to have easy access to digital currency (so that a new economy can develop etc) we are the greatest ally you have on that mission.

One company can't play both roles, of integrating with the existing financial ecosystem, and creating the brave new world that you want to see. That role probably needs to be filled by separate companies.

We are much closer to Stripe and other businesses which don't allow adult businesses either. https://stripe.com/blog/why-some-businesses-arent-allowed

So here's the thing. I don't want the carrier to call to ask how to deliver a package. I have never had a FedEX or UPS carrier do that, they just put it where all packages for my building are supposed to go.

I've had Amazon Logistics carriers: Be unable to find my door (it's a non-gated, outward facing door in a row-style townhome with street access). Leave things at an _entirely different_ residential complex, whose address matched neither my street name nor number. They've done this twice, and not even at the same wrong complex (the hint is it said "left at reception", and we don't have a reception area). Try to pressure me into letting them just leave something on the sidewalk outside a gated apartment ("would that be safe?").

I'm a Prime addict and I feel like my dealer just started cutting the supply. At least let Prime members opt-out of Amazon Logistics (hell, I'd pay extra in my annual fee to do so).

They can't win because there are too many non-OPEC producers now. When the prices rise, the non-OPEC producers will sell into it.
> resets the game to a slightly earlier time and replays the "real" moves to reach the current point.

That's exactly what properly engineered network games do. However we're talking about video streaming here, in which you don't have access to any game state. It's not possible to do without the developer going in and adding specific feature support for your streaming service.
In my experience I am actually stronger and have more stamina. I will actually blackout during workouts if I am eating carbs. On keto I have not had one incident.
In a related note, I just had a conversation with an Aerospace Engineer here who said that throughout his degree he never had to program. Now he's trying to find other employment (as this program is winding down) and all the jobs that he is seeing require some programming skills.

The game theory on this is awesome.

You've got OPEC a collection of countries that don't all like each other, trying to agree to lower their individual production knowing that they can't trust each other.

At the same time this exact group of countries are running deficits and any cut's they make will increase those deficits in the short term. Keep in mind these are countries who can't be described as stable. In many the only thing keeping the government in power is they oil money they sprinkle on their populations.

You've got oil producing countries outside of OPEC who would love to see the price of oil rise so they can expand their production of oil that's more expensive to produce. Keep in mind there is a prominent theory that OPEC flooded the market with cheap oil to drive these countries out of the oil producing business.

You've got world economies that depend on oil, all of which are using cheap oil to prop themselves up to differing degrees. A return to $100/barrel oil would be short term trouble for many 1st world economies.

I love the oil market. I can't figure it out, but I love trying:)
I've read a couple of Seth's books couple years ago. I felt they are all like a great blog posts inflated to size a short book. But maybe going on about one idea for two hundred pages makes some sense, it made it really sink in for me.
You are free to do whatever you want with the dollars you have. So is the US Federal Reserve. That's the difference--not only does the PBOC insist on freedom of action for itself, its government insists on strict limits on freedom for all held Yuan.

The bar for "allowed to vote" is very different from "allowed to reset a cellphone account". One needs to never block any legal voter from voting, the other can be a balance between ease of access and ease of fraud. I would be very cautious conflating the two cases, because they are very different.
I take ZMA and potassium daily. I will drink electrolyte water too. When I get home from the gym and feel drained I will drink 8oz of chicken broth for the salt. I had some severe cramps before starting this.
Coinbase CEO here. Keep in mind - this was the first employee we hired. And it was 4.5 years ago.

As you can imagine, things may have changed a bit 120 employees and thousands of interviews later.

I think you'd find the experience quite different today.

Am I the only one bothered by the use of the term "sortation?"

I had a roommate in college from London who pointed out that Americans tend to add "-ation" onto words where it isn't necessary or doesn't further elaborate the meaning (e.g. transportation where transport is sufficient). I haven't been able to un-notice our rather pointless addition of letters to nouns. What is wrong with Sort Center or Sorting Center?

I did, before writing this post, find "sortation" in some unabridged dictionaries referring to a mechanized or automated sorting process, but the word still just sounds off to me...
I think there are some false equivalencies in here. There are real serious challenges to be overcome, especially (as you say) dealing with the radiation exposure over >= 3 months in deep space, and we've seen the serious health issues Apollo astronauts have suffered from after enduring the same sort of exposure for a comparatively short time. But overall, the science and engineering are largely in place; to do this it will take scaling, integration, and refinement all on a massive scale, but it really isn't like e.g. going from the Wright flyer to SR-71. The latter was unimaginable back in the day of the former, which simply isn't the case for SpaceX's plan or it would be getting a lot more flak from real experts than it apparently has been (though, let's be honest, SpaceX are the real experts now).

And, again, nobody's saying it's anything other than a long shot, not even Musk himself. But a lot of people seem to be pooh-poohing it for bad reasons. For instance, the awful quality of the audience at the Q&A does not in reality tell us anything about SpaceX's ability to execute on some or all of this plan. In fact, I think Musk was ready for much more challenging questions than he ended up receiving (how could he not have been?)
my guess is that UPS will eat their lunch. this is UPS's core business. they prob weren't doing what Amazon needed them to do partially because they have other customers and partially because Amazon likely wanted too much from them based on what Amazon was willing to pay. Amazon will likely place onerous requirements on sellers to squeeze pennies out of the shipping process. and then, eventually, when more of commerce has converted to the mail-delivered model, and UPS is making a profit, and Amazon realizes that they're throwing good resources after bad in an experiment gone wrong, they'll get back to focusing on selling stuff and out of the business of delivering stuff.
If you happen to find it again, it would be interesting to look over it.
Hate to be the one pointing this out, but your relative is unfit to use online services now.

You would not let her drive, would you? Even if the car provided her more automomy, the risk of her running into another car would be too high. Why would you then let her expose herself to a world full of predators that are specifically targeting senior citizens to wipe their bank accounts?

Better to monitor her use of computers as if she was a young girl.
I think it's a spinning plane with a projector beneath. Their limitation is in the DLP projector's refresh rate. Seems they also may have extra limitations in colour space, since most DLP projectors use a rotating colour wheel.
Knowing nothing about this specific project, but knowing quite a bit about the cultures of their Transportation, Operations, and Supply Chain orgs, I would:

1) Say this is not news but PR. Congrats to Carney.

2) Expect actual technology to lag behind the vision communicated by 3+ years while the dev teams try to find remotely suitable heuristics for the NP-SweetMotherOfGod problems that the executives think are just a matter of throwing enough servers at. Several entire orgs will be eliminated or repurposed while this happens.

3) Expect costs to be an order of magnitude higher than the competition for a good 3-5 years due to really stupid and trivially fixable mistakes/inanities that are obvious to anybody on the ground floor. These inanities will eventually be addressed by some level 4 or level 5 analyst that will eventually (but not today) get fired for pointing out the wrong person's mistakes...or worse, endlessly moved around orgs with no advancement potential.

4) Expect it to be rolled out to countless cities mindlessly by some executive that thinks they can predict results for Kansas City based on actuals from New York City. These program rollouts will eventually extremely costly and will be neutered to mean nothing, delicately handling the PR hits as they come in, while the program will still exist on the record. The programs will never be shut down.

5) Expect it will eventually (5-10 years out) become cost-neutral, but never profitable. Right as this happens, some other crazy idea will be announced, pushing everybody back in the red.

Rinse and repeat.
Seriously, what the hell is a STEMlord?

Nobody wants this.

No "security guy" who has a choice wants to spend half their workload waiting for PRs to come in so they can chime in with feedback about default configurations.

No product programmer wants to deal with some "security guy" parroting the results of an automated tool to them over a code review platform.

No product manager wants to see progress stall because the product programmer and "security guy" are arguing over whether or not a call to strncpy should be replaced with a call to strcpy_s.
