If she is primarily reading and writing texts, no computations, no statistics, etc. then a small computer would suffice. If she has an office, it would be nice to be able to attach a real monitor or two. If she is working mostly on the go (e.g., in different libraries)), then such office equipment is not necessary. Screen above 13" suck in trains and planes. If she will travel for you make it a small machine (planes prefer 11") also Eurostar has not much space. However, the smaller the screen the bigger the need to have a separate monitor in the office. Ah yes and for mobile computing battery life is super important.
If it can be rolled without breaking for 1000 times, it will last only little more than two years, maybe three when you can limit it to one view per day. I want to use devices for at least 10 years.
When I grew up these incidents where called model airplane incident. When did they renamed them drones? I know this is off topic, but it is new years eve. Time to become nostalgic.
Amazon behaves like the world is the USA ignoring local laws, they do not pay their workers properly, fight unions, works council and other worker representation in their company, they pressure delivery services and personnel, they pressure cities to commit to their needs and pay subsidies. Really, do not shop there. Shop somewhere else.
Yes, we are all responsible. However, some people want change, while others hinder change. Therefore, it is necessary to point that out and to try to understand why these people do not want to change. then we can develop narratives which allow them to change. So we all can address the issue.
Technical illiterate, scared, and indoctrinated people elect politicians who are themselves technical illiterate. They do so for three reasons: (a) they understand what theses politicians are saying. Of course it is bullshit, but it conforms with the people's opinion. (b) these politicians get more funding by lobbyists and interest groups. (c) adverts and political indoctrination via "news outlets" specifically, local news, Fox News, favorite Youtube rubbish. Furthermore, the "other side" in media follows the old style of "we only report" and "let's hear both sides argument" practice.
The people are illiterate, because the education system is broken. This is not only the case in the USA, but also in many other western countries.
No. Like most western countries, the US has decided to dump engineering and science and logical thinking. We prepare to become more stupefied than ever. And we all do that willingly or because we are manipulated in that direction. Mostly because we are lazy.
Sorry, for being negative today, but just had some "great news" from the political domain as input and read university correspondence.
Global stupidity seems a constant factor on this planet. In some social groups denial of reality is most prominent, because reality challenges their believe and there behavior.
Many EU countries want to be CO2 neutral by 2050. Even in Germany, where the government is overprotective of the car industry, had a couple of setbacks, i.e., in more and more cities older diesel cars are no longer allowed to enter town, even a highway will get blocked. So there is a lot of pressure to go out of fossil fuels. If your home market is changing, you have to adapt.
Musk tried to avoid the normal way to start the project. Now in a democracy you do not need to accept authoritarian behavior. Musk must follow the rules like anyone else, he is not above the law. He still can build his thing after due process.
Small projects do not have no impact, they have minimal impact. Multiple minimal impacts can be severe. For example, if you put one teaspoon salt into the water for your noodles, it has minor impact. However, the whole package of salt will make the noodles quite inedible.
We should sell t shirts and jackets with Xi's face on them. Even better provide a printing service for photos on clothing so people can select their enemies as age for the shirts.
Of course it is your choice whether you want to have a digital enabled high end camera in your mobile computer aka smartphone or use a separate device for it. However, I do not see the need to have that in a phone. How often are you going to use it? It makes the thing more expensive. To me it looks like they add more camera/sensors just because they do not know how to add more innovative things to the phone.
There might be people who desperately need that feature. There might even be a lot of people needing this feature. And for them it will hopefully be great. However, I have the impression (of course sitting in my bubble) that this looks more like the end of a new product phase, where most devices end up in history. From that point on the next version of something does not provide much of an advantage of what you already have. Therefore, people tend to keep their devices longer. The only thing keeping them from doing so are batteries and their limited lifespan.
Anyway, it will be up to the people to choose between better images and keeping their money.
Ok fair enough. Still I do not see much benefit in it. In essence you can do things, like a panorama, in one shot without the need to move your phone. However, there might be people who really need this. I would rather go for a real camera. Anyway, I still would trade more battery life over another camera.
In an attempt to be innovative, companies start adding rubbish to the phone. I understand one camera, take photos and selfies. I understand two cameras one for photos and one pointing towards yourself to see yourself while creating a selfie (true selfies are stupid, as they are used to show "look I am happy at $LOCATION" even if that is not true. However, the issue with selfies have to be discussed at another time. And yes, I do them myself. So I am a hypocrite.). The use of three cameras is already strange for many reasons, but let say you need 3D images, then two cameras might be helpful. And if you want to have a 3D selfie 4 might be useful. As you can see the "usefulness" is declining. Now for what purpose could you really want to have 6 of them?
Instead do something about the freaking battery issue. Make them replaceable. Make them last longer. Yes, that might be not good for your "business plan" to sell more phones. Fortunately, I do not need to buy your phone with no extra value. Samsung and Apple and the others have to face it that there is peek smartphone and we are moving from "new hype product" to commodity, like with household appliances. You buy a microwave and then use it for decades.
True. Symmetric connections are supportive of that move. However, it would start going in that direction when people start complaining about bad upload speeds.
We need to transform Internet-based services, chat, blogs, news (aka facebook, whatsapp, instagram, twitter etc.) into decentralized peer to peer services. Key for this transition is IPv6 because it enables us to give every human a set of personal IP addresses. For anonymization, we can use tor like overlays. Of course we need IPv6 routing without NAT.
The paper states that wind farms have local impact mostly at night. In total they do not have an climate impact, but it could have an local effect which can cause negative results when 0.28 ÂC more is an issue for local plants and animals.
They further want to support the selection of whether to use solar or wind in certain areas.
Unfortunately, the/. title suggests an issue comparable to CO2 emissions. This is not what the study is about.
Do tou think politicians in the Netherlands are stupid? They use the stuff themselves. Therefore, it will be allowed to use it for specific uses when the device is not hand held.
We can be inclusive and we should to other religions (see religions freedom). However, wherever a religion violates human rights it has to step back. Slavery is not acceptable.

Just don't drive too fast. Dammit.
If it last that long. They will switch broadcasting technology before that ;-)

I hate auto correct. Its inventor should go to hello. Also why is there no edit button /.?

It is the summary, the janitor's response does not correspond to the allegations.
How about master-worker, as this is the name of the design pattern.
