Yeah, 100% spot on. The typical YouTube content creator is not going to miss their monthly $12.95 Google check for 200,000 views (warning: made up numbers).
The point this really drives home is video ads are asymmetric. Youtube's harvest of 'viewer attention' is huge (to the order of billions of dollars a year in value). Only some of this benefits advertisers. Of which, Youtube earns a smaller fraction. And its content creators earn the smallest fraction of all.
The perverse outcome is this may end up making distasteful content more palatable. Only because it won't have ads running all over it. So viewers of an extremist spouting off of how the 'other' is sin, and associating with them is wrong, get an ad-free experience that makes them more receptive to such content.
To balance this effect, YouTube needs to run politically neutral 'public service announcement' ads on hot-topic content at the same frequency as ads on its other normal content. Why should only cute kitten and baby videos suffer?
Is that where the IRS can email his invoice for billions in back taxes?
Because that's what the personal computing revolution of the '80s did. It replaced flesh and blood workers -- filers, clerks, mailmen, ledger maintainers, calculators, computers - with their software equivalents.
From US DoJ letter : "Title II mandates that no qualified individual with a disability shall, by reason of such disability, be excluded from participation in or be denied the benefits of the services, programs, or activities of a public entity, or be subjected to discrimination by any such entity. "
UC Berkeley plans to remove some content that is properly closed-captioned and accessible. This is in response to the complaint about related, inaccessible content.
Legally speaking, isn't this denial of services by reason of disability? Especially if removal is so onerous it'll take months to execute?
I think UCB should step back and rethink. Take the DoJ letter for what it is -- a lawyer's note, not a judge's ruling. A hasty response to its more strident points (i.e. pay compensation to the two complainants) is likely to get UCB into more trouble, not less.
Amazon filed an amicus curiae brief, arguing the supreme importance of drones to the wellbeing of mankind in general, and Amazon shareholders in particular.
Nomads absolute have a country. They share it, to be sure, but it's still their's as much as the next guy's.
From the definition: "Nomads, move periodically or cyclically, usually returning to their original location at various times."
You can't simply take over each location on their route and put up 'This is Mine!', 'Not Here', 'Go Away' signs, and still expect to be just. Unless, of course, you are fine if someone evicts you from your hotel room. Snatches the title of your holiday timeshare. Takes over the cloud services you paid for, moving the pitiful remnants of your data into a purpose-built 80386/300 MB 'reservation' (that's what the policy of Indian Removal was).

Dude, you've not been to wilderness or semi-wilderness areas? Roadkill (and its railway cousin, train-kill) are just the visible surface of the iceberg. Roads segment ecosystems: its true. Even snails that get trod on on pavements are an illustration.
Whay cant the trolley bill you? Everything has a barcode, or is image identifiable. Just have it ringed by cameras pointing inward on the trolleys rim and a simple weight sensors to confirm placement. Image and/or barcode recognise objecta. Optical flow processing and weight sensor processing. A bunch of raspi zeros and picams should do the job.
Half of 'a lot' is still 'a lot'. But 'incentive to move' is one thing, its the 'capacity to move' thats vaporising. As orgs get larger and larger, the base of the pyramid gets wider. If you were born on the wrong side of the tracks, this means fewer bridges to the prosperous side of town. Making the glitzy side glitzier does nothing except cement dissatisfaction.
Troll was rated Troll because he trolled (yes, he touched a nerve - but that's part of trolling).
The underlying premise of the article is your gut is an extension of your neural and hormonal systems. Change its ecosystem's chemistry, and you'd think better and eat better. Have more fruit and vegetables, and your health will improve in a non-linear fashion - more than can be explained by better nutrition alone.
What would a spacecraft operating an EM drive at peak efficiency look like? Say, a Star Wars Star Destroyer going from low-earth to geocentric orbit in 'reasonable' time (30 minutes). Would the relative size of EM engine to Star Destroyer body be 1:10? Or 100:1?

Even better, remove the market for hacked firmware in the first place by backing right-to-repair laws, sponsored by your local member of legislature.
Or is that too 'big-government' for someone?
Maybe you're moving your mouse around too rapidly. The telemetry service cannot keep pace!

Funny that. Innovation also seems to have moved to the same cycle.

Few would object if that were the case. The issue is the "not breathing, not metabolizing" claim is not always true

Having said this, if they eventully !combine! a robotic armature alignment with resonant charging, that would be good.
Who knows, maybe a few armatures with small charging pads at thier tips work better than a single large pad... like a radio telescope
Also, faster horses.

Any and all clouds that you depend on will one day vaporise.

Yes, you should get one too. And then you will have two. Echo 1 will Echo 2. Your very own Echo crew.
