I explain it in some detail here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G4EKbgShyLw

Essentially we use Eth because we don't really need a 'cryptocurrency' as much as we need an api for cash where very small payments (10c) are practical. For reasons that I explain in the presentation the key simplifying assumption of low fee transactions makes a simple billing scheme (pay per forward) work.
No. The camera image is read row-wise. One could perhaps stitch together the output of multiple cameras and RPis though differing perspectives may make this impractical under some circumstances.
This depends on the design of the sensor.

Basic sensors effectively have one analogue to digital convertor (ADC) per column of pixels. That would mean that if you wanted to reduce the horizontal resolution, you would be disabling some ADC's, which in turn would reduce how many pixels can be converted per second, giving you no benefit.
It's a fairly common tactic with farmers. Buy next year's supplies using this year's profits and pay no taxes on profits.
restic isn't just for sftp, it supports bunch of cloud storages.

Also, open source but non free license but duplicacy, in my opinion is technically superior to restic.
Stateless
Stateless | Boulder, CO | Onsite | stateless.net

Stateless is on a mission to reinvent network connectivity. Central to that was our initial innovation, where we demonstrated an ability to efficiently decouple state from processing in network functions—a task deemed infeasible in high-performance networking systems, but in doing so, we have opened the door for fundamentally changing how networks are built. Now, we are building the product around that vision. VCs have backed us, and early adopters have validated the business opportunity.

We are hiring for a variety of roles: from C++ and Kotlin developers to sales and support engineers.

That was one of the many arguments in the original blog post IIRC - that if you look, at the rest of her family, they all died in their 50s/60s, making this hypothesis less likely than if they all tended to live in their 90s or some such.

You forgot to put "independent" in quotes. Those were not separate trials, but rubber stamping the first one.

Don't you think the judge privately advising the accusation without communicating the defense undermines the right to a fair trial?
Because the app store is an app commerce platform that other companies list and sell things through.

e.g. if the video is static, don't store any information. But if there is movement in the video, start storing frames etc

WHY? I find myself recording lots of videos of me talking through code in an IDE. The screen mostly static, with some occasional the screen scrolling. The regular tradeoff-space afforded by CRF doesn't seem to get me the size results I believe are possible.

I disagree. And note the claim was about "relative poverty and short lifespan".

Seems very straightforward reasoning that those in relative poverty with shorter lifespans have much more incentive to falsify their age to be older than they actually are.
Did not know that Airbnb covers so many use cases by now: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airbnb#Product_overview

No that is not anti-competitive, because Wal-Mart isn't a platform that lets other companies sell through their stores. Wal-mart is notorious for using it's buying power to push down the purchase prices for it's inventory.

Most new devices have realised that storing RAW image data in realtime is impractical - it can be gigabytes per second!

Instead, one needs to use a GPU, DSP, or other dedicated hardware to process/compress the data into a common video or image format.

The demo videos don't have a good black level.

Is this processing method perhaps not using a correct dark image, or not correctly subtracting off the shaded calibration rows on the sensor?

If thats the case, it's probably screwing with the gamma conversion, making it look even worse.
As someone who works for the federal government, it will be interesting to see how this capability evolves. As it is, major hotel chains have a 'government rate' that they offer for business travel, and I'm interested in seeing if AirBNB might allow something similar.

Or to put that last line another way: if you're making a data play, you aren't going to win over many early customers if you blindfold them and tell them to use your data analytics with a gun to the back of their head.

Grubyelp's data play may be a fantastic way to collect order data and help restaurants "Optimize Everything", but if the monetization is done in a way that people cry hidden fees and the onboarding is a binding arbitration clause buried in a contract, well, we know what a disregard for your customers does. Many people use Lyft because "it's not as scummy as Uber" despite Kalanick being gone for a few years now. Just last week DoorDash got a huge backlash when people learned where their tips were actually going.

This kind of growth hacking works to pad short term numbers, but long term it only works if you're a Comcast or Equifax and don't actually need to give a shit what people think of you.
Unison seems to be maintained, there just isn't much to maintain. Perhaps being in C would attract a huge community to make up for the increased work required, or perhaps that wouldn't be sustainable and we're better off with projects that can better "hibernate".

Not C but not super powerful seems like the worst of both worlds.
Oregon and other states have a documented history of nonissue with this system, especially compared to existing systems in Georgia or NC. Vote by mail is incredibly successful in getting people to vote securely. It's those who wish to decrease turnout or ability to vote who fight such successful systems.

There is a liberal majority that votes democrat, not republican. Guess which states make it easier to vote and have a voice in our democracy? It isn't the red ones.
Yeah, my brother had a good friend who was a paramedic for..I want to say 13 years. Then he became an alcoholic and eventually killed himself. It was horrible.
Some of them were ethnically Hellene. But folks of any ethnicity throughout the Roman empire (or earlier the Alexandrian empire etc.) of the time who wanted to do mathematical work would have probably traveled to Alexandria or Athens to study and would have written mathematical results in Greek, which was the language of science/mathematics/philosophy of the day.

We unfortunately don’t have too many biographical details about most of the famous “Greek” mathematicians, so it’s generally not precisely known what their background was.

Supposedly they even work on iOS if you plug in a keyboard, which is pretty unexpected if you think about it.
Often, our intel has hacked their intel and watched them do it.

For example: the US is certain that North Korea was behind the Sony hack because South Korean intelligence hacked North Korean intelligence, and the NSA hacked South Korean intelligence. So the NSA found that it could access Sony servers by going through SK intel to NK intel to Sony.

Another example: one of Cozy and Fancy Bear (don't remember which) is known definitely to be Russian because Dutch intelligence hacked the CCTV cameras outside their Moscow office and was able to correlate times when they conducted spearphishing operations with times when known Russian government hackers were in the office and specific, spearphishing-related Google searches were being issued from computers in the office.

Five Tips to Be More Productive with Kubernetes
My feel from the Rust that I've done so far: you know you're in something like an industry consortium, they're trying to please all the stakeholders, and gain adoption, and one can even see community input partly as market research. I like that I know where I stand.

With Racket, the community relationship has been fuzzier, with all the various enthusiasts and volunteers, with money not a factor.

From the professors' perspective, I'd say they're pursuing their research and education ideas, as well as getting funding, publications, tenure, awards -- and I think all that is mostly the goals of Racket. Nurturing a user base serves those goals.

From some other community people's perspectives, Racket is a community effort, to support, with the professors doing most of the work on the core, while everyone contributes in various other ways. I suspect many have assumed it's a partnership of aligned interests, towards some shared goals, or that the core is a benevolent dictatorship that will represent the interests of the current user community.

I recently saw someone mocking Racketeers for being alarmed about losing their precious parentheses, but I don't think that's the problem, for maybe half the people who are concerned. I think the problem for some is having their ideas of the goals of Racket and the community relationship shaken up, after they've invested.
So it's like the US.
I'm honestly shocked that business travelers want to stay in AirBnBs. If I'm traveling for business usually I'm traveling to some major city and need to be near or in the downtown commercial area, in which case it almost always makes more sense to stay in a downtown hotel when possible. Also, when traveling for business in general you want to minimize the surface area of "travel surprises" and a chain hotel is a pretty safe bet most of the time.

The only time I've considered an Airbnb (and in those cases have only picked the ones that are basically professionally managed) is if the hotels are outrageously expensive for whatever reason.

It's so disconcerting to watch organizations and architects like Arup and Bjarke Ingels support stuff like this. From an artistic perspective it's less interesting than Jeff Koons' proposed animated replica steam locomotive dangling vertically from a crane (https://www.thedailybeast.com/whatever-happened-to-jeff-koon...) and from an engineering perspective it's silly. Koons' loco could have held itself together without any feats of calculation but this is in the category of artist's fantasy made real by extensive structural analysis (and quite probably extensive interior reinforcement, not to mention a huge (floating?) foundation below the waterline.)

Arup was paid tens of millions of public money by the London "garden bridge" promoters. It's now expected to see their name on unusual large scale spectacular engineering projects. But their organizational ethos is loudly advertised as being altruistic and responsible: https://www.arup.com/perspectives/publications/speeches-and-.... It just comes across as smug and sanctimonious, given the way Arup will apparently implement almost anything with a large enough price tag attached. They really aren't a more evolved form of consultancy, even if they claim that they are.

I highly suggest you read about Hong Kong.. clearly you have little understanding of the history behind it.

here's a quick primer for you.

The English were running a huge trade imbalance against china (Tea for payment). The chinese did not purchase much from the english. The English created the "East India Company" to import opium to china (yes, that opium). The chinese did not want this, so the british went to war and won. China was forced to enter into a 99 year lease agreement.

So.. what is this "annexed" you are referring to?
> But, even in the 21st century, it's a struggle to get compliance with hand-washing rules in hospitals.

Ever talked with a nurse or a doctor? The reason is simple: way, way not enough staff at hand combined with maximum allowed/planned time for a certain procedure (e.g. 10 minutes for a full assisted shower) which only works in perfect conditions but falls apart under the slightest change (e.g. patient wet themselves), and combined with ruthless MBA-style C-level execs actually firing people for not keeping up with the numbers.

Medicine, especially highly critical / urgent care, needs to be socialized and shielded off from all negative effects of modern-day capitalism if this is to change.
I cannot see how would his be profitable. Usually when a customer receives a new cellphone at a lower price, that comes with a 12-24 month extension of a proportionally expensive contract. After said contract expires, AT&T has already made its profit. Even if someone would want to take the device and use another company's SIM card, they would still have to honour the contract with AT&T.

The only "free money" scenario I can think of, is stealing AT&T devices, and reselling them in the black market/ebay/etc and thus pocketing all the $$$ without having the customers signing contracts.

Ps: this is why a large company needs a large Internal Audit department.

While BACS' 24h clearing of interbank transfers was normally ok, FasterPayments really makes having multiple accounts split across bank's super convenient.

My wife and I both have our own accounts with Barclays and joint accounts (and mortgage) with Nationwide, and I have a Monzo account for small day to day expenses. It takes me less than a minute to open the Barclays app, transfer some money to the joint account, and then open the Nationwide app to confirm the balance and do whatever I needed to do from there. Total money management game changer. I've done a four hop transfer from my savings to overpay the mortgage, in about three minutes.
Most companies let you lookup the amount on a gift card. Regarding those sites it looks like they don't pay out unless they've emptied the card first.
> Airplane pilots use checklists. It's illegal to start the engines unless the approved checklist book is within reach of the pilot in command. In training it's drilled into us that the response to panic is: get out the checklist and follow it. It works.

Just some clarifications:

- It's not illegal to fly without a checklist under Part 91 (non air-carriers.) When I fly with military pilots, they use a flow for starting small airplanes:

http://fsims.faa.gov/PICDetail.aspx?docId=8900.1,Vol.3,Ch32,...

- the airplane manual is a book, and must be on the airplane. A checklist is a list, not a manual. The checklist can be electronic, as in the HondaJet.

- it's a good idea to follow the emergency procedures either from memory, or a checklist if there's time. Typically recovering from a stall or spin, or feathering a bad engine is done from memory, for example.

First, I'm all in favor of having better access to drug treatment programs, things like needle exchange programs, and even in favor of giving addicts access to administration of their drugs in a safe setting.

> If we removed the blue light, and fitted sharps bins, people would take drugs in that toilet and not on the street, and they'd have a place to dispose of the needle.

This is laughable to me. To be in the frame of mind to need or want to shoot up in a public bathroom is not the same frame of mind to use a sharps bin to dispose of a needle.

The same goes for firearms. The moment they can defend themselves is the moment they take the food and resources for themselves. Having your population near starvation and defenseless is the main method used to maintain power as an oppressive fascist regime.
The US has started wars to protect foreign investment. The history of Latin America comes to mind. Some examples would be Allende, the bay of pigs invasion and Nicaraguan Contras.

The fact that the US hasn't retaliated much in the tech industry probably just demonstrates that the industry wasn't firmly enough in bed with the government when China began blocking access to google and facebook.
As someone who travels almost every week for work, our company has a policy (as do many others to my knowledge), that prevents us from booking Airbnb's, regardless.

With that being said, something that makes Marriott/ Hyatt/ Hilton properties so popular with business travelers are their loyalty programs and the perks associated with top-tier memberships and hordes of virtual points which usually can be used to fund family vacations for the foreseeable future. I don't see Airbnb ever being able to be competitive in this sense.

You'd have to also have some sort of mirror system and lens to distribute the light in the same phase, because all of those ten sensors are in different places.

I love Airbnb...for personal travel, where I don't want to stay in a hotel.

For work, I love that hotels don't rate me back (ugh!), always have shampoo, have consistent brands and expectations, are easy to access any time of day or night, afford lots of privacy, are close to downtown, easy to find, and usually have reasonable, if not great beds. Also, Airbnb don't have rewards.

Why someone would choose to stay in an Airbnb for a short stay for business really does boggle the mind. Can anyone else explain?
