Companies can be held responsible for their automated systems running amok. If this is the case, then either YT's ContentID system is overly sensitive, the third party uploaded something like a sample of white noise or silence that ContentID matched to the silence or jet engines in the video, or the third party uploaded the original author's video to ContentID.

If Google can be accused of defamation for automatically suggesting "sucks" as an additional search term after a company name, then they can be accused of defamation for automatically indicating that an original author's video contains another's content. If the third party deliberately uploaded ambiguous content, hoping to trigger spurious ContentID matches, that is fraud.

At the end of the original article, the author says the situation has been rectified, but this is not an isolated incident. The article links to another example of a third party uploading someone else's royalty-free audio tracks to ContentID, giving them ad revenue from any video that includes those audio tracks.

No third party should have this kind of unchecked power over others' creations, and YouTube's ContentID system has been upheld as an example of how all sites with user-generated content should operate.

I have an idea in this space that I'd be keen to get feedback on. Have only ever seen one person mention the rough/loose concept before. If you have experience in this field or figure you're pretty good at picking a good/bad idea and have a spare minute, can you email me? My details are in my profile.
Android also has a central place for your accounts, and there is an AccountManager API to get access to them. You'll find your Google, Skype, Facebook, linkedin etc in there (and apps can add their own.) http://developer.android.com/reference/android/accounts/Acco...

Since iOS doesn't have this, and many developers did their apps on iOS first, they ignore the functionality and ask you for credentials etc again. It is extremely annoying. I regularly contact app developers to point out they could do better. https://plus.google.com/110166527124367568225/posts/bz1pN3az...

I encourage other Android users to do the same. You should never have to re-enter credentials the system already knows about.

I tend to think of it from an economic standpoint. It takes a great deal of economic capital to put things into space. Until space is returning a reciprocal amount of value to earth then the equations don't match up. Humans love warring, clicking links the internet, eating, fucking, and arguing instead. Intellectuals and idealists still have to abide by economics. Convince a large swath of the populace that a moon base is a good idea via some means of propaganda or figure out how to extract real tangible value from space. What's on the moon that is immediately valuable? That's the ticket right there.

Upon coming to this conclusion, I have found that I've just straight up given up on space. Someday some species may colonize another planet. I just don't think it'll be the homo sapiens, at least not while I'm around. Leave it up to the foundation of the long now. They're the ones I have any semblance of hope in. At least they've got the right mindset.

You probably meant 4 AWG, a 100' of 24 AWG cord has about 2.5 ohms of resistance in it. Since power dissipation is exponential with current pulling even 2 amps through it would have the wire trying to dissipate 10 watts and that would represent 100mW/foot, easily enough to raise the temperature of the copper to the point where it would be too soft and break.

Ok, how about this one. Suppose his entire music collection was stored online in something like Google Music. And that all his books were eBooks, stored on Amazon. Lets assume he had his Kindle siezed. Is it right to deny him books and music?
Your second-to-last point seems like a wonderfully simple, life-changing application- you can negate many of the problems of colorblindness by textually identifying the colors of objects and selectively enhancing the contrast between objects. (Perhaps overlaying textures or something?)
Okay, I'm loving the idea. I can see this being great for indi stuff. Probably less hassle than hiring VO talent and a studio.
I agree. Setting up Cassandra is simple. It is later when you get to things like:

mutator.setColumnOrSuperColumn( ... )
mutationsMap = new HashMap<ByteBuffer, Map<String, List<Mutation>>>()..

compound column..
super compound family of super columns...

where it feels more of a senior project, rather than something simple as:

curl POST '{"red":2, "blue":4}' http://127.0.0.1:8091/riak/laundry/shirts

Although CQL fixes some of the problems with Cassandra complexity [Thrift does not even sound good in all 3 languages I know], I still believe it will be far more "desirable" (as the real http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cassandra was) if more forces are applied to simplicity and polish.
maybe just change it to socialist only?

> Tesla are a sideshow and we desperately need to stop talking about them, because they're harming efforts to improve energy efficiency.

Completely disagree. Tesla is, I think, unquestionably the most impactful company in the game, including GE and Nissan. For two reasons.

First, before Tesla people thought of electric vehicles as ridiculous DIY golf carts driven by treehuggers. They were utterly uncool and stupid. Post-Tesla, electric cars are among the very coolest cars in the world. GE didn't do that. Nissan didn't do that. Toyota didn't do that. Tesla did. I think fundamentally changing people's perceptions of what an electric car is and what it can do is the single most impactful action in the industry so far.

Second, Tesla's critical product isn't their cars. Their critical product is their battery technology. It is second to none, in a business where the battery is everything. This is the reason that both Daimler and Toyota have invested in the company. I think you are seriously underestimating how important this is.

As to the article proper: it seems to me that running down your car is a pretty simple problem to engineer away. This might be an issue, perhaps a burp that Tesla has to get fixed pronto. But it's hardly, to use the breathless headline, devastating.

They may have them, I'm not rich enough to buy a brick that big. But from what I've noticed in friends and family, most younger people don't even realize they're there. "Isn't that what P is for?". It makes me feel old driving a manual transmission and knowing what all of those things are for.
It's a shame, but it's still not a human right. I'm not arguing that it wouldn't be a significant inconvenience, it absolutely would.

"If your app was reached via the system mechanisms of notifications or home screen widgets, Up behaves as described for app-to-app navigation, above.

"For the Back key, you should make navigation more predictably by inserting into the task's back stack the complete upward navigation path to the app's topmost screen. This way, a user who has forgotten how they entered your app can safely navigate to the app's topmost screen before exiting it.

"For example, Gmail's Home screen widget has a button for diving directly to its compose screen. After following that path, the Back key first returns to the Inbox, and from there continues to Home."

This use pattern damages a lot more than just the battery. You can basically trash the engine if you keep up a 5-10min per day use pattern for long enough. At the very least, a car which would otherwise comfortably last 200-300k miles will probably be worth selling at 50-100k. Certain engines are affected more than others, but basically you are never letting the engine warm up to design temperature, so nothing fits well, accelerating wear. It is particularly bad to do this from mile 0 with a new engine.
I'd go even further and say that energy efficiency fundamentally can't be reached by carrying individual 100-300 pound humans around in 1000-2000 pound vehicles.

Sure, but that's the same as saying that Sun Microsystems changed the world. Before Sun, people thought of C++ as the be all and end all of programming and we were stuck without decent typesystems and helpful compilers. Microsoft didn't change that. Nobody changed that. Sun did.

Look where they are now. Sure Tesla might have changed people's worldviews and I'm grateful for that. But moving forward, that counts for nothing. I just want the best damn electric car there can be. I'm not paying for changing the narrative.
Yes of course, but I believe the term "Apple tax" refers specifically to markup on Apple hardware. That's all.

Wasn't aware of it, actually. Thanks for mentioning it. Looks very interesting. I'll also amend the blog post.
I did a proof-of-concept that shares a browser screen to a browser running on another PC:

A) var a = body.innerHTML.split('id="');
B) foreach s in a; var id = /([^"])/.match(s);
C) use id as key to s
D) send changes to innerHTML to second browser using comet
E) repeat every second or so

In second browser keep cache of all sent s, rebuild a, and set body.innerHTML = a.join('id="'); Add a transparent div and transmit mouse movements.

Works best if:
pure ajax single page app
* in page HTML is browser agnostic (e.g. you use modernizr.js, and javascript generated HTML never has difference depending on browser)
* no javascript in body e.g. no onxxx="somejs();" attributes.
* static css file
* static image files

The market is a few types of rich person. The nerd (who just loves the tech), the guy who genuinely cares about the environment (but is either required to drive long distances, or is irrational), the person who wants a sportscar or luxury car but also wants to socialize with or date leftist/environmentalists, someone who wants a california hov lane sticker but doesn't want to ride a motorcycle every day, ...

This won't sell a few million cars a year, but I think in the USA, the market for the above is 50-100k cars per year, easy.

I drive a 2008 Kia Rio which gets 40mpg (100,000+ miles). The 2012 gets 30/40 and cost $12K. I am waiting for a hybrid that beats the Rio by a amount needed to justify the price difference. I look at the all electrics, but I cannot buy one because I live in an apartment with no plug-ins (kinda annoying in the winter) and travel 34 miles to work (one way).

Discover How To Cash In with Email Marketing | Money Intensive

For those who like SQLite, it allows you to create tables and columns with zero length names (you have to quote) and it does indeed work correctly when you use them. This is valid:

CREATE TABLE ""("" "");

A zero length table name with one column with a zero length name having a type of a zero length name.
I strongly suspect it's not a binary market with people that care about efficiency on the left and those that don't on the right. There'll be those that care, but prioritize higher performance. Those that want a bigger car due to safety reasons. Combinations thereof.

The market likely maps onto the technology adoption life cycle, and the hardcore SUV petrolheads are likely the 'late majority' or 'laggards'. That leaves a lot of room for market development before even considering those people. They'll take years or decades to change, so ignore them and focus on the customers in the early majority. That includes SUV or sportscar drivers who would like to save money, who do care about the environment, who have moved to a city, etc.
Are you skipping over something in that explanation about which email(s) one must be able to read? Because the way you said it makes it sound as if anyone could make fake certs for hotmail, gmail, etc. And that can't be right... I hope.
OK, so how much solar panels would Tesla need to install on the roof of a Model S to prevent this from happening?
Most of them, easily. Don't take tired stereotypes of pop singers like Britney Spears or Justin Bieber and assume they're 90% of the major label output, or even 90% of the artists who get paid well.
What's the difference between hiding behind a proxy like scroogle and searching through TOR while logged out?
How is Tesla trying to engineer around culture? If anything, they are engineering for our culture that is fascinated with high speed performance cars(Lamborghinis and Ferraris an example) and luxury cars(Bentleys and Lexus an example). Their models are giving what the customer wants. An electric car that is still fashionable in today's taste of cars. Of course the early models will have a few problems, but their widespread popularity after such a limited existence as a car company shows that Tesla is exactly what the consumer wants.
Pretty sad, if that's the case. It sure as heck isn't worth $25/year to host my family snapshots.

I wonder if the data was recovered. I'm really sad and depressed he's gone.
Last time I checked, you can't have high-res images on a free account. Also, I would never consider creating an additional account just to work around a really dumb limitation of their software.
