"MINIX can still potentially change your computer's fundamental settings." Give me a break. MINIX provides nothing that enables this. It could have been WinCE or even raw ASM and had the same capability. Its all about the hardware! What a dumb statement.
I agree. It isn't a surprise that modern machine learning can recognize patterns. I don't see how this is even close to innovative. Now if it resulted in changing treatment offered to patients such that the outcomes were improved relative to current human Dr recommendations, then that would be interesting.
Maybe the MAC was wired to a buggy PHY. It would be veeeeery surprising for lspci to show a different device than what is really there, though it isn't impossible.
You are a braver rider than I. The first day I had my SWB recumbent I pulled up to a red light next to a pickup. There was no way the driver could have seen me below his right bumper, and a trike is lower. If the driver had decided to turn right, I would have been crushed. I got a flag the next day. But now I've given up on the recumbent for commuting in my small town -- I just don't feel as safe as I do on the more nimble and visible upright. Perhaps a trike, being statically stable, would provide more confidence. And perhaps the body of a velomobile would stand out more. But you are still very low down.
Obviously no one here has ever ridden a recumbent bicycle in traffic. If you had, you'd see how rediculous it is to even think of taking one of these on pavement shared with cars. YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY INVISIBLE TO CARS in a vehicle this low. And because of the enclosure you have no peripheral vision so you cannot look out for other vehicles -- even other velomobiles. I didn't see one "safety flag" in any of the pictures, which tells me that none of these vehicles are used by anyone who cares for their life, or they are just toys for a weekend cruise.
As other posters have said, these are only practical with a different road system, and I argue a different bike path system. How would you handle passing a group of 15mph standard bicyclists in your vision impared wide wheelbase trike wheeled monster? You wouldn't, it wouldn't be safe on bike paths of today for you or the other riders.
A Computer Engineering curriculum is much better than a traditional CS degree for this type of work, so you might look at what texts are being used in high quality CE programs. The Embedded Systems Conferences from UBM are also a good source of training for low level firmware implementation.
Which developer do you think is going to be more productive? The dude having to know 3-4 different technologies, or the dude who just needs to know JS?
The developer that uses the right tool for the job will be more productive.
That means using a language with static type checking and a productive debug environment. Learning a new system infrastructure takes time, but only finding out about easily preventable failures during testing instead of compile time costs more.
I have to agree here. You say you are a small company, in my experience requirements for even modest size projects are generally easy to manage with human language documents, just label everything for traceability. If a word processor is too awkward switch to a spreadsheet, or use them in combo. But I do highly recommend using a defect tracking database. I like Jira.
My bank is similar when it comes to CSV/QIF/OFX files, only 90 days of history. But they have years of online statements in pdf format. Recently I got behind on my imports, and found that pdftotext and a little perl was all I needed to create.qifs from the pdf statements..csv should be easier.
Even with "real serial ports", which USB-to-serial devices are, you often need a "breakout box" to get a piece of equipment to talk to you. There's the whole DTE/DCE thing that may require you to reverse TX and RX (e.g. null modem). Then one side might want DTS/CTS pulled active, while the other doesn't care. Then even when you get them to talk you might have no flow control and loose characters.
Come to think of it USB ports that adequately present themselves as a CDC ACM device might just be a better idea.
Not too bad for me, since I need people who can write code to do things that don't exist yet. Good luck in your career of cleaning up other people's code. I'm sure you'll enjoy it.
Sure would suck if your DVD's and your computer burn down in the same house fire. Do you have insurance to cover them all, and a list of titles so you can replace them? You can fit alot of DVDs on a 1TB hard drive...
For example he talks about someone who creates an idea while they have a job can be sued by their employer if at some point that idea becomes profitable and the employer wants control. He lays out steps to help avoid having this happen.

There was either a much smaller shock further away at the same time, or the two shocks travelled at different speeds. Those would be the S and P waves.

The clipper chip was a back-doored encryption device. It has nothing to do with the hardware level access that the ME has in an Intel based system.

This is the same topic as for the Intel Management Engine, for example Is the Intel Management Engine a backdoor?

Ever heard of a small company called MicroChip?
A logical conclusion is that obese people's fecal fauna may impact how efficiently they can use those calories they eat.

Where are my mod points when I need them? Mod it up to 11.

You would not believe how much code in the world assumes either that sizeof(int) == sizeof(long) == sizeof(void*), or that sizeof(long) == 4.
And it is a really cool hack. I think it is as cool as TEXTMODE QUAKE!!!.
I meant P and S waves :-)
So ALL patents are bad because SOME bad patents are issued by the current system? Read some HISTORY, my friend.
