Many of the real world science shows get shut down by this crap: King of Random, Cody's Lab, Demolition Ranch to name a few. One of Cody's takedowns was how to make (low quality) gunpowder over the course of a year using your urine. Who can keep up with their terms of use anyhow. Too bad Youtube doesn't spend as much effort on the UI (try and search the comments sometime).
Now that there are really long term support versions, breaking compatibility in a major version is really not that big of a deal. Fix the memory manager so mmaped files can be unloaded on a low memory condition and generate a page fault as needed. Make the various compressed memory and file subsystems compatible with each other when using the same compression format (rather than de+re-compressing on each copy) simplify the video/gpu systems. Currently, if you run code deduplication software you will fill the disk. Simple things like struct definitions and syscall numbers vary unnecessarily across architectures. Each individual chunk of code is top notch, but overall it is shit.
Start with everbearing strawberries and tomatoes. Then add in additional plants as available or on request. After several generation the plants can be selected for better indoor growing properties, like smaller plant size or better flavor without concern about shipability.
There is a good article on it at https://psmag.com/economics/th...
Its part of the reason why it is cheaper for consumers to buy directly from overseas than from a local shop... especially items under 2kg.
International postal treaties. Ever wonder why it is cheaper to have a product shipped from China than from your next door neighbor... Thats the biggest red line item on the USPS books.
America pioneered this about a century ago and abandoned it several decades ago... Technically the automobile and oil industries bought them out (the electric tram companies) and killed them and replaced them with stinky, polluting buses - it was a real threat to their bottom line that could potentially grow to other cities and make public transportation appealing to the masses.
Part of the reason Nikola Tesla's Wardencliffe Tower research was shut down... funding was cut because the financiers couldn't charge for electricity transmitted wirelessly. FWIW, High voltage lines actually have enough voltage that a drone can fly close enough to charge wirelessly.
Electric cars and Trams (or cars operating like them), Nickel-Iron Batteries, wooden high-rises, hyperloop (New York City still has remnants of the pneumatic tube network), natural plastics. Blacksmithing is even seeing a resurgence... What's next? Wood gasifiers, Lye soap, Roman concrete, shipping by sail, cars with sails, horse and buggy, derigibles, the rest of Nikola Tesla's patent portfolio? What about medicine, modern medicine allowed us to forget treatments that may have worked OK - for example the discovery of antibiotics virtually stopped all research into other treatments that may be valid now that we have created so many antibiotic resistant strains. What else should we bring back?
That's passive sonar - active sonar is different... Never listened to _recorded_ underwater sounds, but did qualify Sonar on a submarine and even the passive sonar can distinguish the difference between a wide range of objects. Active sonar is more like radar, the sooner the ping-back the closer, the stronger the ping-back the larger(acousitically) the object. Its not much different than the LIDAR used in autonomous vehicles.
As long as you are going for a wider perspective, how much of that $19/hr then goes to taxes, unemployment insurance and the like that an employer would normally be responsible for? How much gets alloted to vehicle maintenance, additional insurance, etc... How much additional unaccounted-for time is used dealing with the platform, tracking costs, time and accounting requirements (or hiring an accountant to do so)? There are no paid sick or vacation days, no medical insurance, no retirement package or any other benefits to speak of. All things considered, MIT's estimated $3.37/hr is probably closer to the mark than $19. Still its a good way to pay for your gas money by picking someone up and droping them off on the way to where you're going anyhow, but other than that you may as well get a minimum wage job in walking distance.
IANAL, but As a general rule of thumb, if a person is not allowed to subcontract the work, they are considered an employee... I am pretty sure subcontracting is not allowed... ergo - more rulings to come.
Auto-copilot would be more appropriate for the way Tesla documents its functionality. As with any slashdot topic, naming can be the hardest part. Autopilot may sound better, but its deceptive.
Easier cheaper solution; just use one of those really loud personal alarms and replace the pull out switch with a water sensor... and watefproof it. It works in your pool or your neighbors and lakes, oceans or rivers too.
That is what openCV is for. Still even having to turn it off is not that big a deal especially if you are turning of the pump to prevent little ones from getting stuck in the drain.... Much better than always having to remember to keep the wristband on and hope it isnt hackable so the people on Megans list can track your kids... but more likely it runs on a hackable remote service that shuts down or requires an expensive upgrade to maintain service after a year or so. I am fine with IoT so long as the I stands for intra-net not internet.
They are both behind the times. Github has done more for open source and free software in the last 5 years the FSF and others have since their foundation. It could be argued that Github would not exist if not for their prior work... probably true - put it in a foot note and let's move on.
Convincing an influential (at the time) group to adopt an already existing term is not the same thing as coining it. "Open source" is an overly broad term that lumps cc0 in with everything up to AGPL3 and even source that cannot be redistributed at all. It has become just a vague corporate buzz word. Including this just makes her other contributions seem less notable, the way adding prestigious to anything makes it seem less so.

Its called the "Bubble Paradox"
This would throw out the interstate commerce clause of the US constitution. Slippery slope, but it wouldn't be the first time.
I assume you mean expanded polystyrene aka styrofoam... toss it all in a vat of acetone to disolve then reuse it.
And NYC unions
Battery markups are not measured in percent, but multiples... 10X markup is not uncommon.

Read that converts rural (Republican) job into urban (Democratic) jobs. Most of the VCs in the valley are liberals.

That only works if it is taxpayer funded. Perform a seance and ask the ghost of Nikola Tesla why.

And if they dont eat it or disolve it in water they get 2 sugar cubes.

Just use the standard sonar signature of the pool and alarm if it changes.
