>> So the hardware is more standard but its still not the same standard as the other boxes.

That could be a double edged sword. I think Nintendo doing a "me-too" console that is like the PS4/XBone/Steam would hurt them more than it helps them. And as it is, Steam already offers a portability element if you've got a decent laptop with a discrete GPU.

>> That could hurt 3rd party adoption.

At this point, I think Nintendo is going to struggle no matter what they do. They're in third place and unless Nintendo can make it worthwhile for 3rd parties with huge hardware sales, it's not going to be pretty.
yes, they are rather common :)
If you can do

- hack into a car remotely

Maybe it's better to

- have it drive you to your destination
- let it go back to its own parking lot

So people won't notice.

Well, it _is_ the Express.
Just look at our selves. How did we learn to care? Mostly for me it was cause they explained the problem and had an alternative. Most of the times it wasn't as good, but at least now it was a choice. That choice maybe doesn't always exist for a web only world.
This has happened to me too and it is annoying. However, I believe the delete is a soft-delete unless you specifically configure CrashPlan to remove deleted files after so many days. I have mine configured to NEVER remove files, even deleted ones.

I've found that you can alleviate some of the headache by assigning the disks unique drive names. The reason for the deletion is that you might plug in your external HDD that gets mounted as drive F. You let it finish backing up, then disconnect it. If you later plug in a tiny flash drive that also gets mounted as F:, CrashPlan will see the contents of that drive and assume that you deleted everything from the previous drive and accordingly mark is as deleted in the backup.

If you mount the external HDD as drive Z:, however, when you disconnect it, CrashPlan will simply show the device as "Missing", but won't delete it unless something else gets mounted as Z while CrashPlan is running.
Close concept, but it's important to know that market cap is different than stock price!
The sensors are heated to help remove ice/snow, and there is a warning to the driver if the sensors get obscured and need to be cleaned.
> But I also don't see us returning to gaming together in person either.

Really? I gather with friends to play Smash on a gamecube every two weeks or so. Bring a few beers, play some good music, pass the controllers around and it's lots of fun. I also co-op a lot with my girlfriend.

If there's a "switch" here, it's Nintendo finally taking feedback from customers and third parties seriously.

Console with graphical power that rivals Xbox One and PS4. Check.

Industry-standard architecture and tooling (Unity), allowing third parties to flood in. Check.

Blends their successful portable division with their console division (this has been a common refrain for awhile now). Check.

They already addressed multiplayer, although they could go further with that.

This is going to be a major windfall for them.
Nope, I feel exactly your way. That is why I started keeping links in Wunderlist in separate todos list and using Speed Dial to keep my oftenly used links.

Kinda random, but is there a guide for FIFA for someone who doesn't know how to actually play soccer? I very much enjoy playing with my brother, but neither of us understand 80% of the vocab, so the usual video game trick of "go look at the controls, find out what's available to you" isn't even useful. We'd both love to get better but we don't really have the time to invest in learning a whole sport and all the vocab that goes with it. I've searched youtube and google, but haven't found anything to help.
what if someone is not a customer or forgot their login? 9-5pst isnt much better then 9-5est, it still means i have to take time out of my normal work day to deal with you on your time. its your business, so run it as your wish of course, but as a customer, these are the things i look at, and scant phone/support availability is a red flag to me.
It's still marketing... Tesla says "Autopilot" and has a lot of small print that says "This is not self-driving!". Google has a lot of research but has so far not made any jazzy "Self-driving cars are here!" claims or videos. And this video shows a sunny day on well-defined roads and low traffic. What about rain or snow?
Extraordinary claims don't require more evidence than other claims. A more accurate statement would be, "claims I'm skeptical of will require convincing evidence for me to be swayed." The "extraordinary" part makes this razor less useful, as if there were more than one category of evidence and one of them simply wasn't good enough for you.

Comey continues to advocate for backdoors in order to stop ISIS from being able to radicalize marginalized people within the US without them being able to listen. However, there are two obvious problems with this.

1. Why don't you just reach out to the marginalized yourself? Spend that $1M you paid to break into an iPhone on combatting Islamphobia and ISIS will have a tougher job.

2. What is to stop ISIS from using software written outside the US, or software they write themselves, or versions of software older than the mandated backdoors, or open-source software, or... on and on and on. His plan transparently will not work. To quote Schneier, "His problem isn't encryption, it's general purpose computers and a global market for software."

That is stupid.
Do you pay for that personally? Similarly to the Financial Times, it seems like a price that's meant to be employer-expensed.
This! A million times this!

While self driving cars will do great things for people such as yourself (and overall I fully support their development/adoption), I also share the fear that it will prevent American urban centers from a desperately needed shift away from cars dependence in favor of better public transit and urban density. I really don't see the idea of every person in the country having their own personal transportation device (or even shared self-drivings car with something like uber) as a sustainable path for the US to continue down.

The technology for good transportation in/among major cities already exists: walking, biking, mass-transit, and high-speed rail. I wish Americans would be more open to these concepts rather than dismissing them in favor of the form of transit that has yielded nothing but horribly designed and polluted cities.

That's not really true though is it? The human miles take into account all sorts of driving conditions, while self-driving car miles are only from the safest and easiest driving conditions. Doesn't seem apples to apples to me.
Sexual assault is not an idea. How about having the courage to stand up against a major player from your circle because it's the right thing to do.
> Dropping LMP isn't just dumb from a "fun" perspective, it's also a stupid business decision [...] By tossing it out, you're tossing away a major selling point for your system.

It seems to have worked out pretty well for Sony and Microsoft—and the manufacturer that does still focus on LMP (Nintendo) is struggling. So I don't think it's actually a major selling point.

I mean, I wish it were; that's one of the things that I love best about Nintendo hardware. But it really doesn't seem like it is.
Ask HN: What has been your most successful blog post?

People enjoy space and privacy.

And income inequality means that people can literally afford to pay for other people to not be near them as they travel.

Busses and trains and other mass transport will return when income inequality is reduced to the point where the amount it costs people to pay for their own space is no longer affordable for them, but if you're earning 500 times the person next to you, you'll happily pay what it takes for them to disappear.
I would recommend searching the r/FIFA subreddit. There is a ton of stuff on there that is childish (it is a game played mostly by kids after all), but every so often one of the better players will post a thorough guide on how to emulate their playstyle. Be forewarned about how much FIFA players like to complain about the game.

You need to differentiate between highways and local streets. Highways the drive right lane thing is common. In a city street you often can and should drive in the lane based on your next turn. Driving in the right for 1 block then veering across 2 lanes to make a left turn at the next stop sign is no good.

I recently wanted to buy a smart watch. I took a long, hard look at each one of my options, and my final conclusion was that none of them is actually acceptable: they're all ugly or have poor features or too big or whatever.

But I still wanted a watch. So I took a look at some good mechanical watches. You know what? Many of them are beautiful. I want to wear one. Sure, they're expensive but — they're jewelry: there's nothing wrong with that!

So I ended up getting a good-quality mechanical watch, and I couldn't be happier.

There was a time when digital watches were the height of extravagance, but they quit being fashionable because they're honestly not better. Right now, smart watches are honestly not better, and I suspect that they never will be.

I wear a watch to tell the time, and to look good; I have a phone (or, better still, a tablet) to be a handheld computer.
When you have an oligopoly on government, you shouldn't be counted as private anymore. Either the major political parties become publicly-owned, democratically accountable organizations, or we need to switch to proportional representation. Or both.

"The person in the driver seat is only there for legal reasons" - how do Tesla reconcile this with the "summon" feature? How can they market the summon feature and say the Tesla could find you on the other side of the country unless it has someone in the driving seat touching the steering wheel?

I don't think Maria _cares_ if Johnny is "playing the long con". That's what I like about it.

(Hell, how many 'normal' friendships/romantic relationships are "playing the long con", if you want to put it that way, call me cynical, but people aren't entirely honest with each other and take advantage of each other all the time, with varying levels of self-knowledge. It's being human.).

"I suppose it's a similar argument as answering the question "why shouldn't sicker people pay way higher insurance premiums instead of driving up the average cost"."

I don't think that is a good analogy ... many "sicker" people have played no role in their sickness which may not be related to behavior or decisions.

A better analogy would be: Why don't mountain climbers and scuba divers[1] pay higher insurance rates ?

I sort of think that they should, however I don't have a good answer as to what happens when an injured stunt skier is broke (and broken) ... do they get no medical care ?

> 3. Drive through Paris during a weekend, same deal.

Having recently returned from Paris, I was completely flabbergasted by the driving patterns. It was surreal. I am excited about Tesla and this self-driving car, I really am. If it can in fact navigate around the city of Paris on a Saturday I'm not sure how I would react. Probably wouldn't believe it.
Unfortunately, we have government officials who make a point of deleting emails, destroying hard drives, and stuffing classified files into their socks (no joke)[1] to destroy/remove records.

Until government opens up and sheds the secrecy and outright deception, I have no pity or concern for them.

I suspect they'll adapt to pull people over for things like sleeping in the driver seat, "embracing another while driving" and such.

They could also shift to giving out more domestic or pedestrian tickets for things like music being too loud and jay-walking.
Des the actual report cover whether there are any differences across carriers? I know in the 3G era there used to be fairly significant variations for the companies which installed newer base stations without upgrading their back-haul capacity to match.

> But software is licensed. When I buy a piece of software, I'm actually paying for a limited and revokable right to use someone else's property. And now companies are putting software into more and more goods.

OK, but how are they actually doing it? What kind of papers do they have to make such demands?

I naively believe that if I just "buy a car", it is the vendor's obligation to ensure that "the car" includes a perpetual and irrevocable license to use for any purpose all of the 1st and/or 3rd party software required for the operation of the hardware. I am buying a functional car and I don't care how it's made inside, it simply must work and be legal to use in any way one would use a car.

Or is it customary nowadays that buying a car involves separately (even if from the same vendor) purchasing hardware and licensing software for it, on two different pieces of paper?
App Promotion Strategies That Don’t Work: Top Mistakes to Avoid
"Speaking of phones and cars, try to find a new one these days without software in it."

Im not saying its hard to find them yet, but at this point 2 out of 3 toasters at my local grocery store have software in them - simple software, not connected, but software nonetheless, in a device that needs none, a device that has worked mechanically for decades with no issue... Everything is going that way though, becuase its easier to design something with software rather than figuring out how to make a piece of machinery make a decision mechanically - it easier to just use sensors and software...
turn on the windshield wipers. Last I checked there were no water jets, wipers or other cleaning devices for the camera lenses on any Tesla. Again, maybe it seems like a small thing, but its still something you would have to worry about. Imagine driving down a dirt road and your autonomous car becomes disabled until you get out and clean the cameras.
Most likely the card was compromised from an online store weeks or months before hand. Cards that are stolen at brick and mortar stores have the CVV value from the magnetic strip and are more valuable than those stolen from online databases. Those are re-encoded and typically used at gas station pumps or other stores that haven't switched to chips.

Cards stolen online typically come with the CVV2 and billing data that makes online fraud easier. At one time the Secret Service would analyze patterns in purchases to identify which merchants had been compromised. They wouod identify large databases of cards that had been compromised and would turn that information over to the card issuing bank. Given the cost of reusing the cards most banks would chose to mark the cards for additional surveillance instead of re-issuing the cards. At a conference one bank executive said that 20% of cards in the portfolio were marked this way.

The net is that if you carry five cards it's probably that one is in the hands of a fraudster already.

Yes, but that doesn't mean the work they're doing is meaningful or useful. There's been a bunch of articles about this. Most office workers are just doing "bullshit jobs": their work isn't really needed, or their productivity is horrifically low.

Rayon is a great library. It's perfect for spots where you think parallelism might be advantageous but you really want to base that decision on available resources at runtime
At this point, durability is hard to compare because the published numbers are total fantasies. S3's published durability is 11 9s, which I've complained about in the past because the chance that the human race will be wiped out next year by an asteroid impact is probably not too far from one in a hundred million, which puts a hard cap on durability at around eight nines.

Then ask yourself, "is the chance that someone made a mistake in designing the system which causes catastrophic data loss higher or lower than one in a billion?"

Yes, the number is total fantasy. The only actual meaning of the durability SLA is that if the durability SLA is violated, your cloud provider will give you some service credits. If the data is worth more than some service credits, this is small consolation.

In practice, if you absolutely must compare durability, what you are trying to do is compare the frequency of black swan events, but actually estimating the frequency of those events requires access to proprietary data which you don't have.

Both providers are undoubtedly storing the data in multiple locations on multiple types of storage systems with multiple layers of error coding.

After thinking about this issue earlier, the most likely data loss scenario in my opinion was "I get injured, the company hires someone incompetent who doesn't pay the bill for a year while I'm in the hospital."
It could be, sure. Which has minimum specs well south of even the PS4, release date merely three years ago. I'm not saying it's a bad game. (Skyrim is the last Bethesda game I enjoyed--man, FO4 was bad.) But it is not really a benchmark in 2016.

This is a higher-end Tegra. It's impressive-for-a-mobile-chip, but mobile chips still aren't really impressive. Maybe the base has additional GPU muscle or something, who knows. But the existence of a video-rendered Skyrim on-screen isn't really indicative of "graphical prowess" in the first place.
I may be wrong, but I think a lot of people would argue there is no such thing as the "fast" lane. Just a regular lane, and a "slow" lane.
My annoyance with watches is that I have tiny wrists (even when I was in my twenties and could deadlift more than 500lbs... my wrist have been pathetically small).

I have accepted my small wrists but have yet to see a form factor of almost any watch that is acceptable given that I'm a male and want it either genderless or somewhat masculine themed.

The one exception is the fitbit (which I don't have as I'm still waiting for the tech to improve on those guys).
1) If a self-driving car is involved in an accidental death. Is the justice system equipped to effectively hold a trial where information like logs, debugging information, etc. are discussed in court to validate whether or not there is any liability on the part of the manufacturer, considering the car is driving itself?

2) What happens in the case of bugs or system-level crashes? What is it about car software that makes it "not broken" compared to the other software we write?
