The initial plan was to produce 35GW when the Gigafactory 1 is finished. Right now the plant is far from finished, with only a fraction of the whole building built, and yet it is expected to reach 35GW this year and when finished to be at 3 times the originaly planned capacity - at 105GW, and on top of that to have enough space to produce battery packs for model 3 and soon Y, S and X, without expanding the plant size. All this is happening because of advancements in production efficiency and battery power density. So it's not surprising Tesla chose to optimize efficiency and density instead of adding new lines. Their recent purchase of Maxwell Technologies is also an indication of that. I don't get why everybody is acting surprised and spells doom and gloom.
This is needed for CSS animations. Now you can do some things like moving an object along a sine path with CSS transitions, but this will be more powerful and in many cases - more intuitive.
This is done with Deep Learning. If the source material used to train the neural network has the "x factor" and does not look clean - so should the output result.
Intel and AMD have a lot to lose if the cloud moves to ARM chips. This will allow many rivals to enter the market - bringing their market share and profit margins down.
If Boeing can call their LEO-only capsule Starliner, then I guest Starship is fair game for interplanetary spacecraft.
And autopilot is a pilot assist technology, not a self-flying/driving solution. If the pilot browses the internet or sleeps on the controls while the autopilot is active - he will be fired immediately.
With stupid people electing stupid politicians there's a great incentive for some people to move to a place which is a technical meritocracy. Even if it's barren and hostile as Mars. Like populating the Earth by the Golgafrinchams in HHGG, but in reverse. There won't be any telephone sanitisers going there for sure:-)
It's a matter of technology. Ask a tribe of tropical hunter-gatherers whether it's possible to live in the Arctic - where t's freezing cold through most of the year, the sun does not shine for months and nothing grows there and they will tell you that no way, you must be crazy to think that it's possible.
The summary is a mess. Still, there are quite many studies that indicate that non-nutritive sweeteners are associated with increased risk to develop obesity, metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/p...
And their effects on gut bacteria is the main suspect for this.
This is the same news that have been circulating since the announcement over and over:
Elon is in talks with big Tesla investor[s].
Well, of course he's in talks with ALL big investors. Even if funding is secured to match all the valuation money - it's in Elon's best interest that all big investors keep their ownership instead of Elon having his 20% and the investor getting 80% of the company. This does not imply that funding is not secured!
Looking further, there's a more recent version - Shadow DOM v1. Chrome is still the only browser that has support for Shadow DOM, so whether YouTube uses v0 or v1 is irrelevant for Firefox.
The parent post is moderated into oblivion but it is 100% correct. The statement that Shadow DOM is deprecated is factually wrong. If Shadow DOM did not exist - Polymer apps would have been equally slow on all browsers. Firefox currently has experimental support for Shadow DOM, you can enable it with the dom.webcomponents.shadowdom.enabled flag.
No, there are no proper subtitles for Netflix's own content, for instance "Stranger Things" was machine translated when I checked last year. Also, there are no official translations for small countries - the local distributors handle the translations and I doubt they would be eager to share them with Netflix. And the machine translation is so bad, it's offending - Google Translate does a much better job. Even for their website - nothing apart from the landing page is translated. There's no advertisement too, most people do not know Netflix even exists. While GOT is airing there are HBO/Go adds everywhere - on buses, buildings and local websites.
In my country Netflix has minuscule share compared to HBO Go. Why? Because their subtitles are a complete joke - almost all of them are machine translated. Compare that to HBO Go where all movies have perfect subtitles and the children movies are dubbed.
I am sure that the whole process, which indeed currently involves a lot of manual highly technical and specialized work can some day be automated. Take a biopsy and put a sample in a machine. It will isolate the T cells, divide them by type(there are several) and receptor (just the most common receptors - there are quite many as each receptor targets different disease/antigen ). Then test each isolated T cell/receptor against the tumor cells to find the most successful one and finally grow billions of them.
Unless your phone comes with it - there is no legal way to download the Google Play Store and there is no legal way to download the google apps outside the Play Store. Some custom ROMs ship with the google apps, which is illegal, but Google turns a blind eye on this practice. This will not be the case with ZTE.
Just one example - fast carbs ( sugar, flour/baked foods... ) will raise your sugar very fast and get your insulin spiking. 1-2 hours later your blood sugar will get back to normal, thanks to all that insulin which is still very high, causing your blood sugar to get lower than normal. And you'll be very hungry. Our bodies have not evolved to process fast carbs. If you eat the same amount of slow carbs - your blood sugar would barely bulge.

Throttle the net for all FCC offices. This will be much easier to do, much harder to avoid and much more effective.
And how is this different from hosting your content on a CDN? You know - a widely and competitively available service from multiple providers. NOT serving every bit of information from a single place, often halfway across the globe is IMO how the internet should work.
Using your car as a self-driving taxi may work in the short term, while competing with regular taxis. But in the long term this scheme is doomed. Using self-driving taxis will be much cheaper than owning a car. There will be only one reason to own a car - as a status symbol. And hence - taxis will be completely different from owned cars.
- Most of them will be designed for 2-3 people. Small and cute-looking on the outside, very spacious on the inside - see the google car.
- No driving wheel, dashboard, pedals, storage compartments to keep (and forget) stuff. Most people who buy a car will want to be able to drive it, for taxis - not driving it is the whole idea.
- All the above stuff will be replaced with a huge curved screen. Almost all people will work, watch movies and browse the net while commuting. The infotainment center will be the most important part of the whole experience. This is why Apple and Google want to be in the game.
- If you've ever used a rented city bicycle, notice how it's parts are completely different than the regular bikes. The same will be for taxis. You would not be able to steal the battery pack, motor, etc. and put them in a regular car. And if you don't want your expensive 300kWh battery pack to get stolen - maybe it's not a good idea to let complete strangers get in your car and take it in the middle of nowhere.
- The interior will be designed for easy cleaning and maintenance. Try splitting a cup of coffee in someone's TESLA and see how that goes.
Logistics for taxis will also be completely different than for owned cars that also act as taxis
- A taxi can take you to another city, hundreds of miles away and stay and work there, no need to go back.
- When not needed, taxis can gather in huge tightly packed parking lots - close to places where demand is expected.
- To minimize idle time taxis will use battery swapping instead of recharging.
- You will be able to order a coffee, breakfast, the latest newspaper and your groceries to arrive in your taxi. You can leave and take your laundry. Going hiking? Just order the equipment and food you'll need 15 minutes before departing. Don't be surprised if Amazon decides to enter this business.
Tinder shows him pictures of women that have some chance of finding him attractive.
It's a supply and demand thing - there are more men than women on Tinder, so he may have to tone down a bit his expectations.
I doubt it.
These companies have tons of video-related patents - they had a big stake in the h264 patent pool, but are conspicuously missing from the list of h265 patent holders. And while the patents will be freely licensed to anyone, the license will allow the alliance to go nuclear on anyone that tries to sue for patent infringement. h265 is an upgrade to h264, so it is very likely it infringes on many of the alliance patents.
