A hosted 1GB of storage is kinda dinky compared to all the providers where one can get cloud storage but the infrastructure to provide it properly isn't all that cheap. I can't help but wonder why they thought to tack this on to their service.
To call it a "lie" implies some sort of bias. Assumptions are often built in to such statistical analysis. Why is it a lie this time?
Calling it the "functional unemployment rate" or "unemployment rate for practical purposes" or "your government ministers hard at work for you unemployment rate" would give a hint that it's swizzled. Just "unemployment rate" implies to the casual reader that it's just a case of total population divided by total people who are unemployed.
Sufficient alterations such as running images through a "make it look like an oil painting" can probably get around this kind of detection. Although watch out for that "convert to cubism" option.
Ah, yes, "the cloud". Like there is just one. Thanks for the specifics. Does anyone know the details here; is the military really using AWS for email hosting?
The worst thing is not that some customers still have old systems that want to buy from you. The worst is unreplaceable internal mission critical software that require IE6. Find the project managers who had that idea and shoot them.
So does this mean they'll catch up to the UK soon? Last time I was in London a few years back cameras were everywhere. Their favorite spot is at the tops of escalators and stairs aimed so that even with a hat brim they can catch your face.
I don't know how it compares. Do you? It seems to me that
You've got ideas that sound great on paper (screen?) but all I really know is that apparently neither of us specialize in grocery store inventory and the people in the article do and they want this robot. So there's probably something to it that people on this forum are either missing or overthinking.
Just tracking the inventory isn't enough. Some products are low when there are 20 still left on the shelf and others aren't low until only 2. Making all the shelving smart might be slicker but how and at what cost compared to a single robot that can check all the shelves?
I have problems with Google, but.... fining them for favoring its own shopping service? Come on. It's their search engine, and their shopping service, and I don't like it and don't use it
Not only this but two stories older is Amazon patenting using their store wifi to outright block people from even checking someone else's shopping service. Are they not paying attention to the Google case or what?
Translation: The quality of the bachelors degree is defined by the fact that it is now the new high school diploma.
Oh, you wanted a quality education instead of just a piece of paper to hang on the wall? Then shell out another $100K for the masters degree.
Gotta love capitalism.
It's the exact opposite of capitalism on display. The federal government has thrown so much (taxpayer) money at almost any student who asks for it that the colleges have dumbed down to be able to accept and pass them all in order to grab all the subsidy money.
All jokes about Apple and replaceable batteries aside, there's no way that thing would run on less than a spare diesel locomotive. Do you see the picture in the article? Must be a good 25 feet tall next to the guy on stage. And people complained the Infinity RS-1's were big.
If the content is so shitty, why do people pirate?
Quality combined with price will define demand. Low quality does not mean no demand, just slap a low price on it. See the 99 cent DVD bin at the supermarket.
I've traveled a lot in China and I'm pretty confident that if they meet the treaty requirements it will be because the official government report says they did.
Modern cheaters don't have a crib sheet with information being tested; they have real time "question 1's answer is..." thanks to person A taking the test and disseminating the answer over a smartphone as the testing is in progress.
OK, Musk's battery factory is in California and has to operate under some pretty strict environmental regulations. But Cook's company outsources all the manufacturing to China where who knows what is dumped in the rivers/ocean/air so I don't think he has much ground to complain about US pollution levels which are nowhere near the problem some places in the world are.

"and that game's internal economy has been completely wrecked by this behavior"
Why is the central service unaware that the total game bucks in circulation suddenly jumped? The game needs routines that monitor the money supply.
Top class bands use airplanes, and they don't worry about data use on a fucking tour bus.
Real top class bands are too busy shooting heroin and getting blowjobs to whine about data caps. WTF kind of pansy rock band is this about?
...most people create no value in their shitty jobs.
If that's so, why do you suppose someone is paying them?
I'm not sure what you include in the shitty job category
Ministry of Shitty Statistics employees?

DoD's military (non-VA) budget is ~$600B. .5% is $3B. NASA's budget is $18B so while an additional 3 is a tidy 16% boost.
HHS's budget is ~$1,100B so .5% of that would be even better, ~$5.5B for NASA which is an even nicer 30% boost.
That's why the next phase aims for 250MPH. Gotta get there before your air runs out.

500 employees is guaranteed $13.50 an hour, while a worker at a company with fewer than 500 employees is guaranteed only $11 an hour"
This means growing to the point of adding worker #500 will cost not 13.50/hour but 1250.00 per hour?

The Whole Foods CEO is a "rando" who funds robotics startups? What is a rando?

Why would anyone think he would be good at it? It's called the Peter Principle and it's truly evil. Fear it.

Because your phone's 4G meter app shows "0 MB left".
What is this, 2015? You're on the wrong plan/network if you get that kind of thing anymore.
Wow putting 1 in 40 people in prison in the US isn't working out well?
Total population of California: 40 million. Prison population of California: 130K. You might want to revise your x-in-y numbers.
