If you have a self driving car you can bet there will 360 video of the entire incident to go through with exact speed logs. You will also be able to review the decision tree of the self-driving car.
Wait for inevitable addition of all cars automatically reporting driving "deviances" to the authorities, or at least the insurance company consortium, with full data logs.
The once dominant interactive web "standard" is dead. What killed it? Security problems.
For the web, security needs to the number one priority considered from day one when the architecture, specifications and scope of the project are first looked at.
I see "OEM and third-party applications support". That sounds like a "good idea"(tm) when every third party app will come with the required 400 page disclaimer and rights waiver "this app is not guaranteed in any way and you waive and damage claims against the supplier"
Although I do see great promise in phone apps for the "real time driving experience you have always wanted" connected to the car app "leave the driving to us".
The general public is going to take their view of AI not from researchers, not from the press, but from mass media entertainment. And possibly a few sensationalist press pieces that play off the mass media entertainment view of AI.
I really really hate public opinion polls that survey the public’s impression of things that require deep understanding.
Consider that a good part of the public takes its democratic responsibility to vote on issues that directly impact them using such an educated and informed manner as "me dad was a ______ so I am".
To expect any educated and informed response from the general public on any issue is really asking for blood from a stone.
OS updates are security issue. Users cannot really apply updates to devices so manufacturers should be required by law to support and update devices for as long as the device exists.
Sure the manufacturer would really be better off selling you a new one. If they issued no updates you would have to buy a new device every month or three.
Look at car recalls, the same standard should be set for support of devices. If there is a system issue and a security update is needed the manufacture should be required to provide it no matter how old the device is. Shame on them for not making is safe/secure in the first place.
Also to avoid false fronts there should be a mandatory bond for 5 years of support should the "manufacturer" disappear. The bond price will be very low for real manufacturers.
I have resorted to typing 2 or 3 random letters into the search box then scrolling through the people list to scan the Netflix catalogue for something interesting.
I hate that the content is getting split between all these providers. I do see my solution as a couple on months on one then cancel and switch to the next one. Just need to subscribe to each one once a year to accesses the latest season of whatever.
Of course they can come up with solutions to mess over frequent switchers.
There needs to be a requirement that all products that are country/region locked have that fact clearly displayed on any product advertising and packaging. The public needs to be aware that something they buy will become unusable if they travel or move with it.
I am sorry you laptop/phone does not work while you are in mexico/canada/......
So apple can show that the iPhone was tampered with after the government took possession. Well that makes the information on the phone totally suspect. That to me shows there is no reason to decrypt the phone as nothing on it can be trusted to be authentic any more.
For example, highly paranoid version, Did the CIA get someone to re-image the phone and plant false information.
Every ballot should have a "none of the above" option with special rules if "none" wins. If none wins then no one who ran is ever eligible to run again at this level of civic election and none of them are entitled to any rebates, refunds or other campaign support in anyway from the general public purse.
The purpose this none of the above option would be to make sure all candidates engage and encourage voters and don't waste our time.
So are more people attempting to transport guns or did the TSA just get better at detecting them? Both of those are pretty bad things.
Also :
Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport (DFW): 153 That is like 1 every 2 days. At least the numbers show where most idiots live. Yes I uses idiot there. They must totally disregard gun safety to do this.
I am really surprised that anyone who attempts to transport a gun does not automatically get added to the no fly list.
Unless both a mathematician and sociologist working together can show in a hard proof that crypto with a backdoor is as secure as crypto alone I maintain that crypto with a back door is not crypto so the request is impossible to fulfil and simply moot.
Like the lawmakers that tried to make PI = 22/7 the request is simply a violation of reality, proving once again the politicians have no concept of reality.
See the CPU bug of last week where a math operation can cause SkyLake processors to crash. It can be worked around with a BIOS upgrade that avoids the problem by using a trap to escape the crash. Things like that need BIOS updates on systems in the field. A lot happens under the hood the regular users are not aware of.
Also the darkside hides from the light side. All that hiding has to be some sort of force use. Seems to me the measurement process is missing the passive sensing abilities, like the ability to feel a planet full of people die without even looking for it.
If you are going to measure the use of force you need units and a strength measure.
How much force is that in midi-choloridian-seconds? And how do you convert that to Newtons (kg*m/s^s)
Following on the path of backup camera's any new feature which can be marginally considered a safety feature can be promoted over and over until it becomes a mandatory requirement that must be maintained. The path to (4) profit is clear.
The silly stuff of pride and self preservation means you can't do someone's job for them. You show that they (and possible the massive task force behind them are "useless").
It is a stupid system. The whistle blowers should get a nice reward for saving further wasted money. And yes it is possible those in charge get a black mark for not following whatever lead it was. Overall from the top, the system should adjust and continue to reward these outside sources of information as good competition against an inside system going soft.
Every mobile phone is potential bomb trigger. Did they round up all the kids with phones? All these people keep freaking out over are things that they suspect are triggers which just indicates how stupid the populace in general is.
A bomb is 3 things - trigger - detonator - explosive
Just about anything from a string to a super computer can be trigger setting the condition for activating the detonator. Getting in a panic over something that might be trigger is ludicrous and does not help.

By definition extremist is extreme.
Google's job is to be relevant. Extreme is generally not relevant.
Facebooks jobs is to be a nice social place, extreme is generally not social.
I do not see excluding extreme content from being outside the self set mandates of either service.

In the presence of homonyms and synonyms you need context which means you need the full sentence before you can figure out what the words are.

This point right here. The ability to cut and crimp to make a cable the exact length you need in an installation is why the RJ-45 is the end.
Maybe we get 2 sizes. The RJ-45 for installation and some downsized consumer cable. But the big boys need it the way it is. Cheap and customizable.

I thought pointing lasers at planes was bad and would get you arrested. Is it good now?
Sure lasers are a fine transmission medium but they also affect the human eye, so generally not so good for the open air.
