Here's a clue: you're not managing them. You might be their "supervisor," assigning them to projects, signing their timesheets, etc., but this is a simple matrix structure, and the Project Managers are managing them. You should be working with these PM's to hear about performance issues or praise, training requirements, vacation plans, etc.
In addition, if the liability does move to the manufacturers, not only will drivers have less recourse against abuse, but they will also STILL be paying for the insurance (you really think the manufacturers won't include insurance premiums in the base cost of the car?)
Precisely. I came here to post a version of this. Bezos clearly does not understand the reliability requirements that would be involved in a venture of this magnitude. Not only would each "factory" need to be at least 100 times more reliable than its Earth-bound equivalent (to prevent an accident in *one* from taking down the whole orbital cloud; think of a chain reaction of debris/shrapnel), but all of the calculations would have to be done in an environment that is not at all understood by today's manufacturing community (no gravity-driven convection, bubbles in a liquid have no incentive to move anywhere, etc.)
So, how does this result in 200 TB? Does it represent the space required to store every digit of every calculation in a brute-force proof? If so, then maybe that''s the correct number. But that size does not make it "not human-verifiable." The algorithm used to generate it is probably less than 500 kB, something that any number of competent mathematicians could do.
My post, and the one to which I was responding, was referring to iTunes ability to search your local computer and add music files to its library on the device. That's a completely different thing than what you're referring to... and it copies rather than moves/deletes the originals.
And, it isn't automatic, either. It requires opt-in.
Now on to this topic. Nobody lost their minds when ATMs started to replace tellers at the bank. Nobody lost their minds when the kiosks started popping up at the airport. These terminals make sense in fast food as other readers have pointed out - that job is just listen and punch buttons (hopefully correctly) which is a perfect application of this technology.
And this setting (prepared food sales) is even MORE appropriate to offload the money-handling duties to machines. Money is just about the filthiest object on your person. I get tired of keeping a watchful eye out that proper precautions are taken to avoid contaminating food with cash.
Heck, Subway could probably offset the wage increase through savings on glove purchases alone.
Hell, here's another thing you flat-out, no joke, absolutely cannot do on the Apple Watch:
Set the current time.
No, not joking. It cannot be done. It takes the time off your phone, so you can't do something like purposely set your watch to be five minutes fast or synchronize it to some other time source that isn't "official" time and is off a bit.
So, yeah, no joke, the Apple Watch manages to be worse at telling time than a centuries old device. That takes skill, Apple, so completely missing the point as that.
Absolutely wrong.It's in the Settings menu, even the one on the watch itself (no need to set it on the phone, like some others).
If I have to sit in a self-driving car fully alert of the surrounding traffic and always poised to take over from the computer then exactly how is this any better than normal car? I might as well save the money and drive myself.
Precisely. And if every Bozo out there is also empowered to take over from their computer, then there will still be traffic jams and accidents, and we'll NEVER see the benefit of self-driving cars.
To put it another way, I don't see the point in spending my money on an autonomous car unless it's actually capable of functioning without a human in the loop.I'll drive when I want to drive, and if the car is driving, I want to be a passenger (and be able to eat, read, have sex or whatever else).
Are Norwegians (including their convicts) such pacifists that it couldn't be argued that he needs "protective custody?" Jeffrey Dahmer killed less than 77 people, and he survived, what? Two years with the general prison population?
Seems like a good place for a "me too" post--I got mine for free ~6 months ago, and everything the parent post mentions is great. I also use the fitness tracker, and the best thing it does is (automatically) store data for running and cycling in the same place. Previously, I used an iPod Nano for running, so run data was in Nike+. I have a Polar bike computer/HRM, so all of that data was in their system. It took manual transfers to get it all into the same database. Now it's automatic.
The disadvantage? When I'm out running, and a car with a Bluetooth head unit drives by, pinging for a phone to pair with, it glitches my music.
All that being said, I could never have justified paying retail price.
d. They performed visible and UV-light inspections of the screen, combined the results (most-frequently touched areas) with personal data known about the shooter and human psychological quirks about choosing a PIN, and executed a smudge attack.
Translation: They figured out they have a non trivial chance of losing this case so they 'discovered' this new alleged hack that they doubtless had all along.
I'd bet dollars to donuts (which phrase is about to become obsolete) that they're planning a smudge attack, which could only take ~7 tries...
At least their PR might have been bolstered. I hate to say it, but if the iPhone 7 rejects unapproved signed firmware, I might actually buy one of the damn things.
I thought that this (or something equivalent to it) was already in place, when the reports announced that this intrusion method would not work on a 5S or later iPhone.
Breaking news... teenage kids are embarrassed by oblivious parents!
In other stunning news, people, including many parents, post waaay too much personal crap on Facebook.
It's not just teenage kids. I was in my 40's when my mother discovered Facebook. It took several serious discussions to get her to understand(*) that "her" anecdotes about things that happened when I was a kid violated *my* privacy.
(*)Actually, I don't actually believe that she technically understands it yet. But she does understand that if she doesn't learn to filter herself, family members are not going to communicate with her.
The problem isn't that voting shouldn't be discriminatory, but that there is no real way of deciding who to discriminate against or for.
I hope you're trolling, or at least joking. In the US, there *is* a real, and simple way of deciding. We discriminate against children and convicted felons. At least that's who we're supposed to discriminate against.
4) That instructors and Proctors are dumb enough to fall for this. Did anyone look at the Amazon link? That thing is freaking huge! Makes an Apple Watch look like a Swatch.
No, just introducing another security flaw in general thanks to the mass number of ignorant people who think this is a good idea..
It's not just the fingerprint sensor. My daughter had her screen replaced AT AN APPLE STORE. Update 9.2 gave Error 53. I'll try 9.2.1 this weekend, and then take it in if that doesn't fix it,
On every iPod Touch and iPhone I've ever had, if it's set to require a PIN, you still have to enter the PIN when you plug into a trusted computer. (What confuses me is why, because you can only sync with one instance of iTunes, that more than one computer can be classified as trusted).

No iTunes actually deletes the files.

After reading the summary, Raspberry Pi 3 gets no update at all, it's Raspbian OS that gets the update.
Well this isn't a tech site so most people won't understand the distinction.
It also doesn't "add Bluetooth support." Support was already there; it just added the capability to make Bluetooth settings in the GUI.

Actually, it looks like they tried to correct the typo in TFA, but just made it worse.
to bring this back on-topic--the premise is entirely wrong. Exactly which part of a working laser requires no energy?

Sorry to propoagate the rumors, but it's been hours, and nobody else has responded.
It was Content Scramble system (CSS), the DVD encryption scheme. Shirt-based decryption shown here.
