Just turn the blower fan to on, in the upper midwest your ground temp is probably in the upper 50's or low 60's so you get nearly free cooling just by running the circulation fan for your HVAC system. Yesterday the living room was at 76 and rising, two 20" box fans in opposing windows and it dropped to 72 in about 30 minutes despite the fact that I was gaining major solar energy through the large (12') picture window.
There was no need to go to 64bit for additional ram anyways, ARMv7 supports a 40bit PAE which supports up to 1TB of ram.
The primary advantage of AArch64 is that it more than doubles the number of GP registers and the new SIMD instructions that leverage the larger registers.
Moto G4 Plus is $300 and comes with 4GB ram and 64GB of flash (plus SD card support!), the regular G4 is going to be ~$200 and 2GB of ram so I'd say they're coming and much sooner than this processor (released already in certain markets, coming to the US soon). The G4 also has a 5.5" 1080P screen so there's plenty of room to come in even cheaper by using a smaller and/or lower resolution screen.
Yeah but an RPI+display is WAY more than a cheap phone. It would be better to find the cheapest phone that supports USB OTG and use that as the programmer.
I'm sure they have the information to get those stats, whether they did the adjustment for driving conditions for Musk's comment I can't be sure since as far as I've seen he hasn't given that level of detail yet.
Every Tesla car reports back to HQ, so they know how many miles have been driven under autopilot and how many airbag deployments have happened when it was enabled, they also know how many miles have been driven by people and how many airbag deployments have happened over that period, it's not difficult math to calculate accidents per million miles driven and compare them.
47M according to the press release the other day. Musk says autopilot controlled vehicles have half the rate of crashes (where a crash is defined as an event that triggers the airbag) versus those under human control.
Yes, when there are three cars in the ditch in the stretch of 2 miles and people are sliding into oncoming traffic you need the authorities to close down the road until it can be properly treated.
If they are allowed to use software it's no different from the US requirements which require access to 911 without an unlock code and the E911 requirement (which is such incredible BS, even last year when calling 911 from my phone the operator still asked me my location and city, I was calling in to report black ice on a state route in a city I'm not familiar with, I wasn't sure exactly which jurisdiction I was in, the freaking phone is REQUIRED to give them lat and longitude, it should have come up on their screen before they even picked up my call ffs)
I just know when I look online I see the average rental on a 2 bedroom within 10 miles of SJ is $3k\month, that's like 80-90% of the takehome on $50k\year.
How do you survive in silly valley on $50k? Does your employer have a dorm with free room and board or do you commute 2-3 hours each way? I had an offer in 2002 to move to SJ but when I looked at COL factors I told them they'd need to pay me nearly double ($85k, I was making $55k in the midwest), they declined which probably worked out for me since I would have quickly needed raises to keep up with out of control rent increases. I'm now making $130k with a 10% retirement funding (7.5% guaranteed) and my mortgage on an 1,100sq ft house with an acre of property is $850/month including insurance and taxes. I can understand folks who are making bank or hoping for a jackpot payoff at a startup living in the area but for people working jobs like yours I can't understand it, you'd be WAY better off living just about anywhere else on the planet.
Nuclear is a hell of a lot closer to infinite than dino-juice, Australia alone has 1.1M tonnes of Uranium that is easily recoverable (under $80/kg). At 2.2GWh\kg for complete consumption that's almost as much all of the worlds known gas and oil reserves combined.
Under western US law that water is almost guaranteed to belong to someone else, capturing it is stealing from them. I might not agree with the system of allocating a scarce resource, but given that it's the law then the laws against capture of others property is a natural extension.
Nope, cities have much lower resource needs per-person than either suburbs or rural areas. If you want to argue that there should be about 90% fewer people that's one thing, but to say it's the cities fault that we consume resource then you're simply wrong.
The people that have an education, speak fluent English, know a trade, and are generally employable and have employees, tend to leave for greener pastures in other states. The people left behind are not the same level of wage earners as those that leave.
Yes, that must be why California's constant dollar per-person GDP is going up faster than the national average. Oh, and California's percentage of wages going to worker is also growing faster than the national average so it must be all low skill workers that bring nothing to their employers that are left behind./s
I also think it's strange that buildings over 10 floors are exempt. They'd seem to be the most ideal candidates.
No, the ratio of roof area to occupied area is a tiny fraction that of a single family house, in addition the roof area of those building are almost always dedicated to mechanical plants (HVAC, elevator motors, etc).
Unless the rural parts of the US stop sending useful idiots to Congress we'll never be able to implement it and if we don't then there's zero chance that China does and the two of us represent about 45% of current GHG emissions.
It is illegal to capture rain water in Hawaii and Colorado, in Colorado it has to do with prior appropriation, there is currently a bill in their state legislature to make an exception to the capture laws to allow for limited rain barrel collection but it's currently stalled. California passed a similar law in 2012, prior to that it was illegal to capture rain water. The whole thing comes down to how water is considered property in the western US. In Hawaii it's due to the way the natives viewed water as spiritual and their laws around it, frankly it's a bit stupid since any water not retained just flows quickly to the sea and there are parts of the islands that are semi-arid.
Eh? The VAST majority of franchise agreements in Ohio were exclusives for a class of service (ie phone vs cable) until the state of Ohio passed a universal franchise law at the behest of AT&T and Verizon which wanted to offer triple play bundles. I happen to use an overlay cable provider (W.O.W) because my community was one of the few without an exclusive franchise agreement and let me tell you, competition works, $25/month for 30/5 internet with no caps.

I saw the original iPad with 20GB or 40GB hard disk and a wheel and four buttons
It was the iPod and it had a 5GB HDD. I've still got one somewhere in a drawer at home.
USB OTG and a USB version of those accessories. Still way cheaper than RPI plus case and PSU, especially if you need any of screen, wifi, bt 4.0.
Yeah but an RPI+display is WAY more than a cheap phone. It would be better to find the cheapest phone that supports USB OTG and use that as the programmer.
Not really, but there are a ton of Uno clones in the $3-4 range with free shipping which is effectively the same price range.
Amazon, ebay, Angies list, Shuterfly, Netflix, Priceline, they're all still around

What? The deficit was almost 100% from the Bush era tax cuts (Republican policy) and waging two wars (neo-Con Republican policy).
