I had this feature turned on until I missed food delivery 2-3 times in a row.

A fantastic book by Vernon Vinge called “A Deepness in the Sky” toys around with this idea a lot actually. There is a virus that can release neurotoxins and it is flipped in very s…

My guess would be that the videos processed in their work are quite small to limit computation time

These especially suck in China. It’s especially painful when you are finally free and clear of the great firewall only to be stopped by a mistuned fraud filter.

Scratches? My daily commute on the Caltrain quickly cured me of this concern. The bike racks on the Caltrain are simple and effective IMO, but essentially just cram bikes together …

Sunrun has been doing this for a while. [1] https://www.sunrun.com/solar-plans-and-services/monthly-sola...

I have had the absolute joy of working with gRPC services recently. Static schemas and built in streaming mechanics are fantastic. It definitely removes a lot of my gripes with RES…

Thanks a lot for sharing this video! This is absolutely the kind of thing that I hope to find on HN. Plan to spend all of tomorrow on this.

I’m not sure about this. This kind of integration test would almost certainly be performed in a closed course (parking lot / garage).

This is absolutely happening at scale in Chinese malls and even those small 7/11 style corner stores. Correlating profiles with Alipay/facial recognition/WiFi/Bluetooth tracking.

This is definitely a corner case and the amount of such corner cases balloon into numbers difficult to boggle quickly. I agree this is an egregious miss, but absolutely understanda…

This blows my mind. Sure Google is has what essentially amounts to a monopoly on search. But hasn’t this been true since, what? 2005? I feel like this is an action by the DOJ to th…

I came here to say this. That one feature makes their site unreadable for me on mobile.

This generates pressure, driving up prices by constricting housing supply sure, but what is preventing SF from constructing lots and lots of new buildings? If there is pressure to …

My biggest frustration while browsing in China was reCAPTCHA. Most websites would load fine, but then they would detect that I was in a new location and this would trigger their ac…

Things like this are always tough to see on the micro, because individuals that didn’t do anything wrong are losing their jobs. On the macro, it’s tough to blame the business for d…

Any technical blog articles you have that explain how you were able to ascertain these incredible performance gains? Kudos on some incredible work! :)

Is the gas density gradient really so significant that it allows a balloon to move towards the front of the car? Any way we can add some calculations to this?

This was the scariest decision I ever made to be honest.

This is because Apple gave the party the keys to the kingdom.

This project has actually really matured in a fantastic way! I have been toying around with it in the past few weeks and have been incredibly impressed with their progress! I would…

This looks incredible! Heads up: the mobile version of the site (Safari/iPhoneX) could use some TLC.

This is actually a really good point. After reading your comment I can’t help but think that this is a purchased article from someone with an agenda.

This is somewhat tangential, but I really love how they published this research. This method has lots of interactive media visually explaining the result of their project. It was r…
