You can only download so much in a month given the limited bandwitdth, so there is still a physical limit. Yes, that amounts to a lot of data for a single user, but averaged over all the millions of other users, a single user does not count for much, even downloading 24/7.
You need to hire and pay people with high-tech skills, at least some of which should have experience, otherwise you pay more for failed attempts.
You go through multiple iterations of prototypes, each costing much more than your mass produced final product would.
You need to aquire several certifications depending on the product, each requiring a lot of paperwork, pretests and costly official final tests.
Setting up production and QA may also take some rounds until you reach the desired production cost.
The argument that this is of no concern to a startup because it runs on loaned money anyways is a bit odd. Anyways, the possibility (it's still a contest) of gaining 250k $ once you finish all of the above is a pretty weak encouragement.
250k to develop a commercial electronics product, let alone a robot is a joke. You need way more than that. The only way this could (maybe) work is if this was a reward for bringing any such device to the market, no strings attached. No need to hand it over to them for 250k (haha).
Of course, if the goal is to just come up with the best concept, I'd get right on it. Ideas are cheap.
Just now 60k people are watching Bob Ross paint happy trees on Twitch. Their definition of 'gaming' is not very strict and is only enforced when it suits them.
I only preorder to reward past outstanding work (which I bought for cheap on steam), as a way to give something back. So far it mostly was a solid strategy.
Of course due to backlog I never play on release day either, often when the game price finally goes down to budget it still sits untouched in the library. So maybe I shouldnt buy any more games at all...
Oh one thing though: Win7 M.2 support does not seem to exist. No success installing that one for me. Win8 no idea (but from what I could find online, it seems to be tricky). Win10 works. Linux Mint works.
I am struggling to understand how the 'listen backlog size for a TCP socket' could be a feature of a 'C like' language. Are TCP sockets a fundamental variable type in Rust?
What does that have to do with automatic braking? Electronics are already controlling the brake system. If they wanted to allow for remote locking of the brakes, they could do it. No need to hook those up to sensors like laser/radar and an evaluation system. A simple switch (or bit) would do it.
Hopefully these streamers comment what they are doing and why they are doing it. I doubt anyone would watch a stream of text appearing on a screen with no comment?
For someone as myself, who works on projects for smaller clients a lot, often alone, that would be an interesting thing. There are a lot of little things you can pick up from others, but you wouldn't think of them by yourself. Watching this a bit may lead to some good insights.
I have seen this used for upscaling image resolution. The neural net is trained on a certain type of image (comics/manga in the example below). It then uses its knowledge about how such a picture should look, to fill in missing information and remove artifacts during the upscale process. Kind of like the nets in the story will try to see their animals/objects in clouds and static.
The result can be really amazing if used on the right type of image. I got some perfect results increasing the image size 16x from a small (300x200) source. However feed it with a 'wrong' (for example a photo of a person) type of images and the result looks horrible just running through the filter. The results also vary a lot in general for each source image, which I guess must be the result of how good it fits the training set.
The 'they' in my post referred to the spammers, not your pharmacy. I doubt those are the same people.
As mentioned in other comments already, do not assume that the spammers get their information directly from that database, or that the email you entered is even saved together with you medical information (why would it?).
Most likely the pharmacy saves your contact info in their own customer database, which they hopefuly dont share.
We have tried the public execution thing. We even put the bodies of the executed on the walls of cities, or next to the roads leading into the city. Did not seem to have that much of an effect. There was never a shortage of delinquents to execute. It's like they did not expect to be caught or something.

What I simply don't understand with these projects:
If they fail to meet the specifications, why are they paid?
Why are they paid even more afterwards?
If the company could not deliver what was specified, sure the forms are not there which is bad, but it should also cost nothing.

... don't have my data.
I wrote develop, not produce.

I've got the (presumably?) OEM version in my current desktop: Samsung SM951 M.2
As far as I can tell, load times don't exist anymore. ;)
The thing is also surprisingly small, more so than you would expect from pictures. You could probably fit 20 of these into the space of a 2.5in drive.

Yes, I can see the options during the setup. Years of updating Java have trained me to uncheck everything.
Anyway that is old news.
We want to know more about the things you can not set in the options.
Ways to prevent forced updates?
Remove hidden services?
An interceptor drone, equiped with an unnecessary amount of spikes, skull decals and a rusty paint job should do the trick.
That's always my next step too
These headlines get harder to decipher all the time.
Maybe drop the all caps, or something? There are at least 5 ways I can read this and none of them make sense to me.
Hopefully these streamers comment what they are doing and why they are doing it.

And what about your cell phone signal then? Are voice calls still getting through into your faraday-cage-home?

Mine does it when I put the transmission to neutral and release the clutch (its a manual).
So... about 0.5 seconds?

They know about your medication (see above).
What they may lack is the matching email address to your name?
So your point is, that because only few people become novelists, we should skip teaching reading and writing in school?
