Really VW do we need more SUVs? Are you nuts? How about reinventing your company and become a mobility company instead an auto company? That would be sustainable.
No one said it is easy to write software handling large amount of data. The argument is that you cannot derive from the number of code contributions the value of contributions to the project or the implemented algorithm. You cannot even derive the quality of the code contributions based on LOC. Especially not with scientific software.
I did not want to play down her involvment. That is why I posted a link to her CV. That should show that she has done a lot of research. Unfortunately, while posting I had not the luck to find better material to underline my argument.
She designed the algorithm. This does not necessarily relates to lines of code. Also eht-imaging is used for a wide area of applications. Mr. Chael is a PhD student at Harvard working on that piece of software. While Dr. Bouman performed the analysis and "developed the algorithm that turned telescopic data into the historic photo we see today". Here is her CV https://people.csail.mit.edu/k... If Chael had done all this, his supervisors had claimed that or pushed that he would have been in the media.
Honestly, would you question her abilities if she would have been a male professor?
Honestly, when pay-TV refers to the old pay-TV companies and exclude new pay-TV companies, like Netflix and Hulu, then this way to count customers is bonkers. This is like when you have one bakery in a town which sells all the bread and you count how much bread and rolls they sell. Then a new second bakery opens, but you still count only the products from the first bakery. Suddenly people by less bread. And before you tell me that Netflix is not pay-TV. It is you watch it and you pay for it. Yes it is not linear and there is no classic programming. So what? It is just the modern form of pay-TV.
These people have too much money to play with ideas which are not really scalable and have a ton of issues which are not fixable. For example, wind. Airships and blimps had massive issues in the past. To use hot air does not remove these issues instead it is increasing them, as you need an even bigger balloon to lift the same mass and you need to constantly heat the shit up. It makes more sense to extend the capacity of mass transit in cities to be able to use it for the transport of goods. In a multi-modal transport setup, this is much more efficient. Yes, this means less cars in cities.
AI, as it exists today with all its approaches based on neuronal networks and other mathematical trickery, is far from able to outsmart humans. It can do some tasks quite good other even more cost effective than humans, but it will not outsmart humans. However, humans are getting less capable and less trained in thinking, due to a vast set of issues including instant gratification tools (also called smartphones + apps) and zapping like media use.
As in most industrialized countries, the labor force is declining which reduces the potential benefits of competition on the labor market. Furthermore, many more complex tasks require people doing a job for a longer time. Not providing them with a stable and guaranteed working environment will result in people leaving.

Crushing someone in an election would imply that you win by a big margin. However, he won merely on technical terms, as he did not even got the popular vote. The economic effects usually reflect overall global economy parameters and policies done in the past decade. His own trade war things might have a negative impact, but might also have some positive effects. Still he is disrupting international supply chains. Due to his tax cut for the rich, he will bankrupt the state in the future and further increase the deficit.
Yes, I have to pay a provider for the storage, but I can control who can see my data. Guests do not need to have a dropbox account or get logged etc.And the data is stored in the EU which makes it compliant with local law.
Right now it is unclear if this ever will become reality. If they change it then this might be in 2021 at the soonest. A lot of bullshit can happen until then.
It is not the companies claiming to be AI companies. It is analysts (other analysts) to claim companies do AI without evidence (claim by this analysts). So in short: Analysts claim other analysts do not work properly. What else is new?
Analysts classify start ups to be AI companies while the analysts of the study claim that analysis is wrong, as they could not find evidence of AI used by the companies. The latter analysts also do not provide evidence on what data they come to this conclusion. All analysts do not provide any definition what this AI is and what they counts as AI in their respective studies.
They do not analyze anything properly, they guess, use smoke and cloaks to confuse the audience.
In a society, where wealth become more and more unevenly distributed, power is unevenly distributed which results in instability and a decay of democracy. Therefore, it is relevant to ensure that high income and wealth are taxed to limit tensions and influence. Also other measures are necessary to limit influence. Even rich people, like Warren buffet, tell you that it is unethical and stupid that he has to pay less taxes (in %) than his secretary.
Also spending habits of politicians can be limited and regulated. For example, in the EU no government should have a bigger deficit than 3%. Furthermore, Germany had a surplus in taxes the last years. Therefore, your claim politicians are always spending more than they have is wrong.
we all know that the big IT companies do not pay taxes in the EU, as some countries (e.g., Ireland, the Netherlands, Germany) do not really try to tax them, look the other way when they avoid taxes etc. I know that Germany is afraid someone (the US) could start taxing German cars, but:
(a) the car industry is only 4.5% of Germans GDP. (b) they are ignoring modern trends for decades now, they had it coming and they need to change. The US taxing them could actually help. (c) we can easily make up by taxes from these companies. (d) it support diversity in the market. This is important to have a real market economy and not a capitalistic nightmare with monopolies. (e) this Trump person will blackmail you with the car industry anyway and as the German public is not interested in paying more for the defense budget, especially since this part of the government is run so badly, the Trump will tax that industry sooner rather than later.
So please come to your senses and tax these Internet companies.
They are looking for any intelligence in the government. This is nowadays a complex undertaking. You need very sensitive equipment to measure that. Also artificial intelligence would be helpful to supplement natural intelligence.
When people only buy phones for replacement and do not increase the frequency of buying new phones nor do new customers appear on the scene, you have a stagnating market. Stagnating markets != growing market => economists get in panic, as growth is required for capitalism (in its present form). That is the concept the post you are answering to is refering to.
It is good for the customer when products are become more durable. However, capitalism requires growth (at least in its current incarnation). Shrinking markets are not compatible with this necessity. Therefore, economists get nervous when more and more markets start to shrink.
ESA is an multinational space agency including Canada and Switzerland. While there are many EU member states also involved in ESA, ESA and the EU have nothing to do with each other directly. They are separate organisations. However, ESA is operating Gallileo which is an EU funded project. Beside that ESA gets its finances directly from its member states. https://www.esa.int/About_Us/W...
ESA is a multinational space agency. They do not provide launch services. If you are talking about Arianespace then this is a launch system provider. They had 11 launches last year. However, Arianespace is not ESA. There are some launches scheduled for this year https://www.rocketlaunch.live/...
The opposite of science is believe. You can believe all you want, but to know something objectively you need science. Science is the method to develop hypotheses, try to falsify it, and improve your theories. What we know is the potential weight of the object, the shape -- well only very, very roughly -- all the drawings are artistic, so it looks most likely differently. Therefore, science concluded that it is an extra solar object, which is most likely not artificial. We do not know enough to come to another conclusion. We can believe of course that it is something else, but that is believe and speculation.
First of all, speed limits are usually specified by traffic law. At least that is the case in Europe. Cities cannot arbitrarily change and set limits. Secondly, in case they change the speed limit, you still are able to follow the rules. Thirdly, in case the speed limit is not acceptable, you can (a) sue the city or (b) engage politically so that it is changed. Unfortunately, so can people living there. Maybe they do not want you to go that fast. In that case a compromise is in order. If you cannot work and live with compromises, you are unable to live in a modern society. Sorry. In that case a dictatorship might be more to your taste, but there you also have to follow rules (except you are the dictator). There you cannot negotiate more reasonable rules. So maybe this compromise thing is not that bad after all. Get political engaged in your town if speed limits are really bothering your.
