SmartAddress | Based in Bay Area | Looking for Co-founders

https://SmartAddress.io

- WHAT? We are giving instant "street" addresses to whole world - no streets required. In addition, we make existing addresses smarter by adding intelligent postal codes for next-gen logistics.

- WHY? Because, we think our current addresses are old, broken & inadequate for today’s needs. And, existing solutions such as What3words or Google Plus Codes aren't enough.

- THE BIG PICTURE: We are building a scalable platform to power e-commerce 3.0, last-mile logistics, drone deliveries, uberized mailboxes, universal & even space addresses.

- TRACTION: Currently in partnership talks with 3 businesses across logistics, postal sectors, and food delivery. Also, in talks with 3 tier-1 VC firms.

Corellium is a low-level iPhone emulator, which is furthermore only provided as a cloud service with Apple's code built-in. They're infringing on Apple's code in so many places that I'm pretty much convinced no lawyers were in the room when they were developing this.

Traditionally emulators are distributed without any infringing code; it's up to the user to extract what they want to emulate from devices they own. For example, 3DS emulators don't ship with a copy of Nintendo's system software, they instead require you to buy a 3DS, hack it, and use some GodMode9 scripts to extract the relevant files. Similarly, one could have developed an iPhone emulator that requires the user buy and jailbreak a phone, and dump the relevant OS files (or extract it from an IPSW available from Apple, etc). This would have most likely been legal.

Projects like Darling are a step removed from even that. Instead of providing a tool that lets the user run Apple's OS in emulation, you instead write your own OS that provides all of the relevant APIs/ABIs necessary to allow software dependent on Apple's OS to run. This tool can then be distributed entirely freely with zero Apple ownership involved. This approach is entirely legal, at least for another week or two, depending on if the Supreme Court understands what an "API" is better than the Federal Circuit.
OK, let's set aside the fact that the CEO was the engineers' current supervisor and regard her just as a recruiter. If a recruiter contacted an engineer and says "Apple is looking for engineers with your skills", and then contacted Apple and said "I know a great engineer who's interested in working with you, here's their resume", and Apple proceeded to hire the engineer without paying a finder's fee, would the recruiter have cause for a lawsuit against either party?
Today perhaps. Pre-IPO stock from 1980 to roughly 2008 was always a huge multiple over BigCorp stock. That largely evaporated in the Unicorn bubble AFAICT. I suspect because pulling the value out pre-IPO was a better deal for investors.

Even today restricted stock grants (RSUs) serve the same purpose and act as a multiplier on compensation which is "better" if the company does better and "worse" if the company loses out to competition.
Most organic milk is UHT, but not shelf stable since it’s not aseptically packaged.

Without aseptic packaging UHT milk lasts for 90-120 days refrigerated.

> Take a moment to contemplate out how Coke and Pepsi (ostensibly commodities) can dominate their channels in a supposedly free market - it's a little bit similar.

You're comparing beverage companies with a market share of 30-40 percent (or less depending how you narrowly you define competitors) to Microsoft with a market share ranging from 70-90 percent. Note microsoft was able to come from behind and succeed mostly before the days of software patents.

Open source is perversely helped by IP laws because it's the only way to create an alternative that can survive. Like bitcoin being anonymous, versus e-gold which was shut down by the govt. Great except we have to wait for hobbyists and others with free time to waste before competing ideas can get implemented.

As for hardware being worse than software without IP protection, well it sure is worse than software with IP protection. So I guess it'll stay consistent. Maybe the lesson is the nature of hardware is to be commoditized, so you need to put your value in the bundled software.

The Friden EC-130, one of the world's first electronic calculators
No, theoretical research is needed to understand why a gizmo works, we often use phenomenological models to progress, and the fundamental reason that ties everything together is figured out later. We didn't understand electricity and magnetism for a long time but we were creating all kinds of devices and materials via trial and error. The arrow of discovery has a strong record with experiment first, theory later. Metallurgy was pretty much figured out by trying shit out first, later came the formalization and explanations for why strain hardening is a thing, or doping and microstructure for example.

For the humanities, yeah I have no idea. I didn't specify but I meant the science and engineering parts of academia. I think math doesn't have a reproducibility crisis since it should be all logical proofs that don't require infrastructure, so I guess math is fine as it is.

Those non competes cannot be enforced under EU law of free movement of labour.
I've never seen this link between 'organic' and UHT before. I'd have to check but I think any 'organic' milk is just treated the same as normal milk, and there's a separate non-refrigerated section for UHT milk (which keeps for months without refrigeration).
> trying to (illegally) get a MacOS VM running, but gave up.

I've tried this myself and failed.

But I genuinely wonder, why you think this is illegal. I mean, do you think that Apple's T&C are laws? I can't think of anything else that activity would be in violation of.
EU organic milk comes from cows who are only allowed to be administered antibiotics if they get sick. Those cows are removed from the herd when sick, but are allowed to re-enter the organic herd after they are taken off the antibiotics.
Corruption has to have an effect. In SV it's common to shout about the success of your business. It would probably be foolish to do the same in Italy.

Buy a Laser Printer.

Dont Buy Inkjet. They All suck. They are designed so the Ink Cartridge head will be blocked after opening for x months. And Ink Cartridge are filled with Ink but either dry up or you will never be able to make full use of it. In Colour Inkjet some manufactures even make it so have to have enough ink in ALL colours to print. Even if you try to print something without it, mixed or not.

Their business model is basically force you to buy more Ink Cartridge.

Basically Consumer Inkjet printing sucks.

Edit: I think Xerox or Fujitsu had a new LED based printing tech similar to Laser, they were very good for first two years, but generally speaking they dont last as long as old Laser.

> Paying CS teachers more than PE or English teachers is not politically viable as teachers and their unions wouldn't accept it,

It looks like you have already identified your problem. You could give CS teachers double appointments with the IT department if you have absolutely no wiggling space on money/conditions. Or maybe you could gather some programmers who are eager to reach out to kids and let them work part-time as teachers after they obtain the necessary qualifications.

> I'm not a fan of having dedicated "gifted" schools at any level. I attended a small magnet middle school that was ranked as the best public school in the state, but it was still the most toxic experience of my educational life. It's false to assume that gifted students don't bully other gifted students

I hear you that you had a terrible experience at your magnet middle school. I'm glad that your high-school experience was better.

My own experience at TJ was that it meant having a group of peers who were just as enthusiastic about things like math, and physics, and computer science as I was. We learned a tremendous amount from each other, and gave each other the confidence to push far beyond the curriculum or what anyone would normally expect from high-school students. That's something that simply would not have been possible if we were all scattered in our respective local high schools; it's something that most of my friends from elsewhere never had until college.

I don't assume that there was no bullying at TJ, or that the teachers are angels. But please hear that for many people it means an experience that we're very grateful for, and that would not have happened without it.

The Surprising Downsides of Empathy
Its not just those three. Its also local demand, diversity, merit, culture and acceptance and many other things. Plus existing inertia matters too. It takes tons of effort to get the ball rolling.

Im sure there are lots of other reasons too, any 1-1 comparison would be unfair given the differences in culture and overall direction of the societies.
Good post but I don't understand the comparison. F1 is faster, we get it. The racing in MotoGP is so much better.

I caught the start of F1 Mugello this year and I turned off after 7 laps of safety car. (Was the first real lap 11?) It's embarrassing. The amazing additional crash under safety car wasn't the kind of entertainment I was seeking.

And what are the rules for track limits in F1? I understand that braking when running wide - if not an outright incident - is safer with a "normal" grippy surface, but now it appears that both sides of the ripple strip are in bounds!? I think many people agree, independent of alternate formulas/vehicles, that the last 10+ years of F1 is questionable progress and the races are too often outright boring.
It's funny to me that KDE have switched to Blink while Red Hat didn't.
Yep small companies often under estimate the value of a couple of good patents.

Spending a few million to stand up a product w/o having a few patents that might cost $50,000 each to protect the company leaves them wide open for all kinds of bad.
And you accept the risks of bacteria from raw milk?
In the US I've never seen it in a non-refrigerated section, so I bet they just refrigerate the UHT milk even if it isn't needed to keep it all in one place and not freak people out.
There are some science and technology investment projects like this in the EU.

For example:

> Horizon 2020 is the biggest EU Research and Innovation programme ever with nearly €80 billion of funding available over 7 years (2014 to 2020) – in addition to the private investment that this money will attract. It promises more breakthroughs, discoveries and world-firsts by taking great ideas from the lab to the market.

Horizon is much bigger than ITER, and like the DoD it covers a wide range of R&D areas with industrial collaboration, and says what its main areas of interest are.

Density, first off. You’re comparing Australia to an area of like 100 square kilometers.

My description of why Silicon Valley happened was also based on it being in the US. I don’t think Silicon Valley happens without the rest of the US (obviously this would be so different it’s hard to compare).

I guess my point is that I was saying why the apple grew on this particular branch, and you’re asking why this other tree didn’t grow any apples at all.
This article is very out-dated.

Some organic milk brands nowadays are actually using very low temperature pasteurization, which heats the milk to 63°C for 30 minutes. It’s more expensive but considered to have a much better flavor.

Google Cloud Incident Writeup
The European Union is a political and economic union. Europe is a continent. It seems strange to refer to wanting to leave the European Union as wanting to leave Europe.

Of course, I'm sure those who support the European Union are generally also very much in favour of it being treated as synonymous with Europe. But it sounds like nothing short of absurd rhetoric to me.
Would you mind explaining the qualities? I don't see how pasteurization or homogenization would change the percentage of cream or mineral content. I've never tasted it so I can't speak to flavor, and you're right about beneficial bacteria but I don't know if that outweighs the chances of harmful bacteria.
My favorite is that you can find the same almond milk both in both the refrigerated and normal sections of the same store sometimes. Once food safety becomes ritual, it’s hard to shake.
The takeaway here is that businesses below a certain size should face less regulation. This makes sense, both because regulatory capture is a real problem, and because smaller businesses have far less legal and economic leverage.

Modulo EBITDA per employee.

Of course, those regulations should step in gradually -- sharp cliffs are pretty much always antipatterns when it comes to regulation, law, and government services.

Yes, I know in France that companies try and get around this by splitting into lots of smaller firms, but that's an issue for the regulators and the specific legal framework.

Nobody ever said these things are easy.
That's why I like Sapira.

In the past (4+ years ago) I read that Xen was more performant than KVM due to tighter integration between the host and guest kernels.

Is that no longer the case? Is paravirtualization no longer necessary, or does KVM do paravirtualization now?
Me neither, I was very confused by this article. Where I live UHT is almost thought of as a “real-milk-surrogate” and it’s used e.g. by people going camping (because no fridge is needed). Organic on the other hand is considered higher quality. Maybe in other markets it’s different.
One role of product churn is to reduce the impact of unbiased reviews and make comparisons with the competition harder. If the model you're buying is only available in your specific region for a month or two it's impossible to know beforehand what kind of lemon you're buying.

My recent example: local consumer association published a comprehensive test of some 250 printer models in July. Out of those I could find 6 models I could actually buy, none of which met my needs.
MMPose v0.7.0 Released
MMPose is an open-source toolbox for pose estimation based on PyTorch. It is a part of the OpenMMLab project. In V0.7.0, it adds support for the 3D human shape recovery task, adds support for WholeBody human pose estimation task, and the 2D hand keypoint estimation task.
That was traditionally the case, it was only when the outsourcing fad came along that these companies started to shed developers.
I got back to normal after about a month of supplements and sunlight. It happened to me again a couple of years later to a much lesser degree since I had just forgotten about supplements and then once again was resolved the same way.
Yep, usually that‘s called ESL (extended shelf life) method which I think has come about only 10-15 years ago. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5704146/

I spend a good portion of my days retouching portraits in Photoshop. Most of the filters do things I’d never imagine doing to a client’s face, like making eyes bigger. Most of what they do is smooth out the skin to a ridiculous extent.

My way takes 10 minutes vs. an app taking a millisecond, but that’s all in the name of making the image look flawless without looking retouched.
Raw milk is dangerous, perhaps if you are fortunate enough to source it directly from a cow and refrigerate it quickly enough you can avoid the deadly bacteria building up, But honestly I wouldn't be risking it if I where you.

Regardless for the rest of us it's not an option and never will be.

This part is hilarious. These engineers aren't your property buddy. There is nothing for you to "sell". They can choose to work for Apple on their own, which is exactly what Apple let them do.

Team Play with a Powerful and Independent Agent: A Full-Mission Simulation Study
Great question. My timing may be a little tad off because so long ago but here goes.

I was a natural tinkerer and enjoyed electronics and taking stuff apart starting around age 8. Read Byte magazine as an interest. Christmas of 1982 (I was 10) my mom had to take out a loan at work to finally get me the new IBM PC that I had been asking for. I took that sucker apart completely on first day I had it when my parents went to the grocery store and boy were they livid when they got home. Two days later I had it completely back together. I spent so much time on that PC - I'd read the manuals, ask to go to book store every chance I got so I could read more on it and other computer books they had, etc.

My spring of 1983 I had heard of modems that could communicate through the phone line to these BBS's and I could download cool programs/games/etc. I asked mom for a modem and again eventually got a new Hayes (my mom was awesome thinking back because all this stuff was expensive at the time).

When Wargames came out summer of '83, I was already doing stuff with BBS's but this movie introduced me to the concept of "hacking". I spent many nights and days mass dialing just like David did in the movie - Until my dad got the phone bill one month and took my modem away for a bit.

I just remember always being into tech/PC's/electronics and never tiring of it. It was so cool to download a game and have my friends over to play it. I was the "computer kid" of the neighborhood as everyone else just had an Atari. Used to have One on One: Dr. J vs. Larry Bird tournaments on my PC for us all.

As I got older into HS and after I just never let go of my interest into tech. I could easily do it without feeling like it was work. Got into programming/installing cell phones into cars in early '90s to eventually a company that built custom PC's for businesses then got into IT support. Have tinkered with it all at different stages all along the way too - Linux, BeOS, Solaris, on and on. That progressed to Network support and eventually Network Consulting and all things tech.
Breach of contract pertains to civil law.
I reckon it's just an infinite recursion and that we don't really exist. I mean think about it this way - the combined probability of everything happening as it did to lead up to you being exactly who you are is so astronomically small. If something was that unlikely to happen then maybe it didn't.
