'Using a meteorologist as an example for their promotional video was an apt choice by Google -- not many people have thousands of tagged HD images bundled together and ready to upload.'
I suspect quite a few of us have tagged HD images bundled together and ready to upload.
Now the problem arises that preparing the food is already beginning to be automated (or already is), as are many of the steps up to the customer. This is not a zero sum game, if there is increasing automation involved. If starbucks has money to spend it will next be spending it on increasing automation and delivery, and now all of the new jobs, and many of the old jobs go away. There can be a temporary win from removing customers labour, but the sustainable position in this case is not 'someone else doing that labour' but 'a robot doing it'.
And I have met 200 french people, and I hate all of them. (insert various ethnic group/...)
Just because you consistently think something doesn't mean it's real. There is lots of research showing that if you give people non-alcoholic drinks, and tell them it's alcoholic, they will to some degree act like they're drunk. Expectations shape experience.
The russian space program is tanking, and an american rocket is taking away all its buisness.
The insurance on a russian rocket is now considerably more than on american, and it's no cheaper. An american company is already developing a craft that can land 150 tons of people and supplies on the moon in ~5 years time. The engines are already mostly done.
Indeed - that'd be the only sane way to do it if you cared at all about privacy. I forsee them analysing the images and following relationship status to advertise tattoo removal.
One percent ahead is not well ahead of expectations. Never mind the ridiculous hyperbole of 'crushes'. I wonder if the writer of the article understands the difference between thousands and millions.
All of the Tesla subsidy has been repaid. Other car makers were not so rapid in repayment. Various other carmakers have had enormous injections of capital over the last couple of decades to keep them afloat that dwarf this, and have not repaid it.
The amount of learning needed is fairly minimal. You buy a keylogger for $30 or so. You plug it in between the keyboard and the PC. Later, you unplug it from the keyboard and the PC, and look for passwords and userIDs. (easy to spot as they're the first after several hours idle). Now, you simply type in the username and password, or use remote access if that's an option, to access the software in the same way the teacher would enter your grades. This is not a complex attack.
"But the people being displaced can move into higher level roles. I remember reading one story about a truck driver who was not driving a truck any more, but instead monitoring several trucks and taking over control for tricky parts of the driving."
I am confused about one of the words you used, I must have mistaken its meaning. What does 'several' mean?
And this is why UI designers that do not think about guidelines needing to be flexible need to be punched in the face really hard.
Exceptions occur, and choosing to justify default by 'global spec says so' rather than thinking about the actual use-case and doing it differently because it's better for users is not a good thing.
The effect is not the same if you assume that the requestor may not be able to get help with legal fees up-front, and may be at a disadvantage when faced by a lawsuit.
National grocery delivery is available from several supermarket chains to most of the population (admittedly, the distances between customers in the USA makes this impractical in more rural areas, where it is not in the UK)
The driver from several of these services will drop the groceries off in your kitchen. You do however have to be there. I have had no problems with quality in >100 orders.
I do not in principle wholly disagree. However, it seems at least very reasonable that it can likely dramatically exceed the driving standards of most drivers most of the time, and reduce both accidents and accident severity significantly over what human drivers or most subsets of them achieve.
And a sizeable fraction of the remainder would be eliminated by automatic monitoring of car performance. (brake failure due to neglect say). Then there are those accidents that are 'unavoidable' (debris falling on road say).
But become not-unavoidable if you have an AI with reflexes beyond a trained stunt/rally driver who has a week to prepare.
"I think it should be up to the author to decide whether it is free" This seems to imply that the author gets revenue from the journal. This is in no case I'm aware of the case.
I am a patient, with a severe condition. I use it to be informed about latest research into that condition, and to be able to flag up errors and shortcomings if any in that research. This is important, as guidelines for treatment can be based on research that doesn't quite prove what it says it proves.
Many papers are not available without significant fee ($20-50 one-time access), and many of these would require me legally to only have access to the paper for 24h, when it may take much more time, as available energy allows, to digest it.
Both non-NIH funded work, and outside the USA work are typically not available free. All older papers, which may be crucial to understand the argument of current papers are not open access.
Utter bullshit. I am a patient, with a severe medical condition. A moderate fraction of new papers on my disease are available openly. Very much not all. Plus, only looking at new papers doesn't help you at all to dig out if the rationale for work, which is based on earlier work is sane.
Not all work is funded through the NIH, and almost none is outside the USA.

Around the time in question, Musk was in a nasty time-crunch about the launch of the Falcon 1 rocket.

Look at the air conditioning requirements of Biosphere II. They were _massive_.

Not disagreeing.

Or be priced higher, if the model 3 ramp looks to be going well.

Showing your passwords on screen is an irreversible action if someone is watching your screen, or recording it.

Nobody had patented it in the context of detecting falls by the elderly. In 1998, accellerometers were expensive.
