1. Training & Education 2. Not enough companies want to use newer web technologies and advancements in AI & machine learning to train their workforce 3. Yes but I think it'll require younger incumbents 'eating the lunch' of more established companies for this to change
> Not enough companies want to use newer web technologies and advancements in AI & machine learning to train their workforce trying to use AI & ML is ok, but why they should use newer web technologies? web technologies are changed so frequently and outdated, its bit scary to jump in to new web tech.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
i can't imagine there 's unlimited demand for cheap rockets. it's not like everyone can send a satellite in order.
Cheap rockets will lead to cheaper satellites. Take a look at the development of cubesats [1]. It's a new "paradigm" for LEO sats: rather than develop a massive and/or complex sat with a lifetime spanning decades, costing years & millions of dollars, you can now make a simpler (no station keeping ability other than using drag, lifetime so low that radiation hardening isn't worth it)/cheaper/lighter sat that you'll re…
Indeed, however there's a limited capacity for satellites.

It's a great opportunity in a field that, despite budget cuts and under-funding, still has millions of dollars to put into software that could meet the needs of school districts across the country. Most of what's out there now is sorely lacking, leaving teachers and schools to use a patchwork of solutions to meet their needs.
1. Public Transport. 2. Funding/Capacity. 3. More money.
3. Automation? Depends on the transport it could be 5 years away (trains/similar) or 20-30 years away (buses/similar). Of course the trains/similar is more of a people issue than technical (;
Afaik, the Vancouver skytrain still uses the original OS/2 software to run.
I may be reading between the lines too much and I apologize if I am... But every few months (weeks?) I see a post by a founder-type essentially trying to mine the Hacker News collective brains for startup ideas. It doesn't work that way. The best startups are ones that solve a pain point you yourself have experienced. The idea of a savior who comes in and solving the major problems of an industry they have never work…
I think, what you are trying to say is that it takes a great deal of domain expertise to fully appreciate and understand those problems. But, you've got to start somewhere. We don't need millions of entrepreneurs trying to build even more meaningless social/gaming apps.
He might need to work in that industry to get enough knowledge to learn about the problem, but, you gotta start somewhere.
Mobile phone repairs - lack of education and the ability to access quality replacement parts. You might think that there's no shortage of phone Repairer's out there and your right but you can bet that 90% of them are self taught or eventually taught by someone. Considering the amount of important information we store in phones and the price of the devices it has now become more important to ensure that your phone rep…
And, it seems Perl IDEs/debugging tools aren't as good as they should be. We're still using the command line debug tools for Perl, and can't even set a breakpoint before that line has been executed.
1. Which industry do you work in? In the publishing industry (where I have worked since 1997), the transition from print-only to print-plus-digital that began around 1999 and really got underway after Amazon released the Kindle in 2007 has finished. Now we have an industry in which print and digital co-exist (at different levels – 50/50 for fiction, but more like 80/20 for non-fiction, and even less of digital for mo…
What 60 year old romance novel reading knitting enthusiast will take the time to understand micropayments? They would just say "pass" and go find something else to read.
There has to be a demand for micropayments to have a problem to solve, right?
