But think of all the "interesting analytics" that it will generate. I guess given that they are running out of data to put on the cloud, they are digging up and resurrecting old projects.
"In modern enterprises, customer data is valuable for identifying their behavioral patterns and developing marketing strategies that can align with the preferences of different customers. The objective of this research is to develop a framework that promotes the use of Kinect sensors for Big Data Analytics on customer behavior analysis. Kinect enables 3D motion capture, facial recognition and voice recognition capabilities which allow to analyze customer behaviors in various aspects. Information fusion on the network of multiple Kinect sensors can achieve enhanced insight of the customer emotion, habits and consuming tendencies. Big Data Analytic techniques such as clustering and visualization are applied on the data collected from the sensors to provide better comprehension on the customers. Prediction on how to improve the customer relationship can be made to stimulate the vendition. Finally, an experimental system is designed based on the proposed framework as an illustration of the framework implementation."
An electric car should be able to recharge using solar panels and thermoelectric systems. The number of times, we've parked our car in a supermarket parking lot and we come back to find the metalwork burning hot.
With all the extra complexity that has been added through the advancement of hardware? Even if they kept the OS and GUI the same, they would still have to support 64-bit extensions, deeper pipelines, all those different kernel hypervisor modes, paging methods, extra instruction sets. Device drivers are written in C++ using inheritance.
Their customers have built applications and production pipelines either on Linx or on Windows over years if not decades. In turn their customers also use Windows and Exchange for E-mail management.
Silicon Valley is located on the peninsula. San Franscico is the desirable place to live because of the moderate micro-climate, having a city that is walkable and close to an international airport as well as large conference centers.
The cities to the south of San Francisco and north of San Jose became overspill commuter cities for those who couldn't afford those two cities. Eventually the number of mega large campuses grows so much that given the ratio between the number of employees (100,000) vs the size of a housing lot means that 10x as much space is needed for housing. Those that can't afford to live on the peninsula have to commute from the other side of the bay by car or bus over the bridges. Building high-rise apartment blocks would only lead to more single people competing for family homes. Building on the desert is practical because of the lack of water and problems with fungal diseases in the soil.
Japanese put incredible pressure on their children to get into a good primary school in order to get into a good secondary school in order to get into a good university and a good salaried job with a good corporation. They are fatalistic that way, that it is your destiny to achieve a particular goal. That culture of die for the emperor leads to karoshi or "death by overwork". Basically they have so little sleep that as the nutrients in the bloodstream go down, blood pressure goes up and they have a stroke and blow out an artery in the brain.
If they were to be fired by a top corporation it would be an incredible loss of face as well.
In the USA or Europe, if you get fired or laid off by one company, you can just pick up the pieces and find a better job.
I've heard it being called "Room 101'ed". Somebody would just get relocated to this room until they stopped turning up. It just wasn't really possible to change jobs in Japan. They had the tall narrow management structures where promotion was from the inside only and rewarded endurance and longevity. There wasn't the venture capital for these senior engineers to set up their own company either.
One of the first project teams I worked on, found themselves room 101'ed. The project was to be discontinued but management wanted whover knows the most to be the maintenance janitor. Everyone jumped out of that company like synchronized swimmers.
Sounds like a place I worked at. They had a problem with the network switches in that pairs would automatically link together digitally in random configurations if there was no physical connection (due to race conditions). So the solution was to disable the auto-linking in software, and physically link together unused connections using cables.
But those that can't afford to live in Singapore have to commute from Malaysia via the Johor-Singapore causeway. No different from the various bridges that connect San Francisco to Marin county or Oakland.
I suspect that all videos get linked together into their own web rings. Given that when anyone clicks on a video in the sidebar of the currently playing video, that's going to strengthen a particular link. So that would create lots of small clusters. Then there videos that have been uploaded and never viewed. I imagine if all the video links were visualized, they would look like the universe, with the most popular videos at the centre of large clouds of similar videos
You need to watch those old black and white movies more carefully. The elderly guy with the white gloves operating the elevator cab would make note of when each person used the elevator, take bookings and anticipate when executives would be arriving at the elevator room. Effectively operating the cab like a limousine chauffeur. "There's Mr Goldberg, he always goes up to the executive meeting room at 2.00pm every Monday. Always have the cab waiting for him 10 minutes early."
There are exhibition and conference venues like that. Vendors could set up their own stands. They could unpack, move, place and connect their equipment together. But any electrical plugs had to be installed and turned on by the union electrician. Mainly because some bozo would daisy chain a bunch of extension cords to one socket, having everything switched on, and then turn on the switch at the socket. Instant power surge.
That's probably the foreman. There's that joke about how a small town wanted to hire a caretaker to take care of a work yard. Due to government regulations, any workman would have to have a supervisor. The supervisor would also need a superintendant. Because public funds were being spent, they would need an accountant. They would also need a recruitment coordinator. A health-and-safety advisor would also be needed due to manual labor. After a year, they were over budget and fired the caretaker.
I've worked in companies where they had a manager/worker ratio of 1:3. The director sits in the office behind three managers, who each supervised a lead engineer, who in turn supervised three engineers. The three managers and director were in their own office. The lead engineers/help desk manager were right next door. Everyone just spent their time printing out task lists (what would be Jira today) and getting them approved by each other. This was bedore the paperless office and a year later the entire management layer was then flattened to a ratio of 1:7 like the film Office Space.
The latest thing I've encountered is with Agile process. One engineer had to become the "architect" who was allowed to describe how things were to be implemented but not actually see or review the source code.
ARM produces the 32-bit Flycatcher CPU (Cortex M0+) has 12K gates, internet-of-things compatible, so it would be easy to prove that there aren't any secret backdoors. Add a C based GUI system and you would have a secure PC.
Building standards prevent builders from installing electric sockets behind kitchen sinks or in stairwells, ensuring that staircases have adequate foot depth and maximum step height, balcony walls are a sensible height and there are railings at any steep change in height, or there aren't holes between stairwells and floor levels (a modern flat with minimalist staircase had 6 inch gaps between the last step and the mezzanine level). When there aren't these codes, accidents happen.
Sometimes it does get carried away, when they require that garage driveways must not face the front of the house.
That's the short length version. It was developed concurrently with the novel. They actually ended up filming two hundred times as much footage as was in the final movie.
"Many theater owners had observed increasing numbers of young adults attending the film, who were especially enthusiastic about watching the ‘Star Gate’ sequence under the influence of psychotropic drugs. "
That would be Hilbert space filling curves. Those are used to optimize parallel processing. Also used in a way to arrange the folding of the brain so that every region is a minimum distance from the spinal cord and optic nerves.
Agenda 21 was to have the population live in high-rise high-density urban centres while the rest of the land surface area was returned to nature. To achieve this goal they wouldn't bother dredging rivers or build sea defences against coastal erosion but they did sell off the flood plain land to property developers.
Out-of-order execution is similar to the way hospitals are run. You have a number of instructions (patients), you have treatment rooms (arithmetic units), waiting rooms (caches). Any patient might need a number of tests to be performed on a single visit, and the need to perform a particular test might depend on previous tests. Not all treatment rooms are available at the same time, so there is a need to keep patients waiting. There is also the security/confidentiality restriction that patients aren't supposed to see the notes of other patients, but that can happen if staff aren't careful.
Speculative execution was an idea that the CPU evaluates the two possible future state of itself then discard the outcome that doesn't happen. But they updated the main cache and not some private cache, so a high-level application could do timing tests to see if particular blocks of data were in cache or not.
I agree with this. Set up your website and blog documenting what you are interested in and have done. Then have companies come to you. Not sending your resume to startups and corporations begging for scraps.
Every language is like this - they are wonderful at small-scale academic proof-of-concept experiments with a few hundred lines of code. Start going to the millions of lines of code for things like large scale GUI applications and then every language starts to have problems: C - too low level, requiring a whole set of functions to be written for a simple ADT's to represent a new list structure. script-based GUI's - impossible to debug and step through. C++ - too many ways of doing things and everyone starts trying to demonstrate their extreme cleverness by trying to find the most insanely complex way of doing something using STL and Boost. The "slightly slower" speeds of languages of just-in-time compiled languages also start to show themselves in terms of performance - the spinning wheel of fate.

Well, the latest buzzword is to put pre- in front of every word, like pre-prepared or pre-planned or pre-predicted.

Already the contract states, you purchase a license to *USE* Windows for a year, not to own the software.

I found that trying to cut down on red meat and cheese simultaneously would give me depression. Quickly fixed by eating a burger.

This is California's revenge on the energy companies for the Enron crisis when the state was forced into expensive long-term energy contracts.
