shut it down boys, everything's already been made.
Just because the observable world is testable doesn't mean that subjectivity doesn't hold any value.

Seems like something you wouldn't want to maintain, especially on day 1. It's always something that can be built and transfer over to after the business has grown and developed.

Lying/deceiving about what?

Also: what does "we recorded many participants performing tasks involving deceptive walking" mean? Does this AI detect those who perform deceptive walking, or people who are actually deceptive walking?

You could still wrap this in a suspense wrapper.

Isn't still possible to wait for the data from that one request to be loaded? I'm also curious on how this will work with subscriptions.
Re:React Suspense on Thursday December 05, 2019 @09:35AM (#21712526)
Not sure what you mean...GraphQL is just the API endpoint. Using GQL or REST wouldn't make a difference on how suspense works.

You'd still query and display your data in the same way. Suspense will just be a wrapper around the component displaying the data.

Get ready for my start up LightningBolt. It has Quantum Computers available on Rigetti.
Well a rich person and a poor person are both going to keep the plunger, so here we are again starting at 0. You're not really making any sort of point.

If you haven't used your printer in 18 months you're probably okay getting by with the one at the library.

How can spending less and being mindful of what you own a thing only rich can do?

Sure, if you're throwing away useful items and replacing them constantly then you're wasting money. But if you're buying only what you need, discarding items that haven't been used in 18 months, and constantly being mindful of purchases/items you own, there is no way it's "only for the rich".

What an absurd sentiment.

Re:Slack’s new WYSIWYG input box is terrible on Thursday November 21, 2019 @09:33AM (#21594344)
So one extra space after the back-tick is now considered a lot of muscle memory?
Are 2 errors better than 35,000 human errors?
How do you feel about Tesla releasing their fully self driving software soon? They seem to have a very low accident rate so far.
I imagine most self-driving systems will have a higher success rate than human drivers. Uber's may not of been one of those systems though.
If the car can't detect what's in front of it, then it most definitely should brake. This is up to the engineers to solve this issue, not for a vehicle to continue into a dangerous situation blindly.
Re:Farm country feeds America, but try buying groceries there on Wednesday November 06, 2019 @11:01AM (#21463820)
Most countries don't rely on bulk buying groceries at warehouse stores like Costco. That'd be bizarre to most people outside America.

A lot of cultures you go up to the grocery store to buy what you need for what you're cooking that day. Not going once a month to fill a truckload of year long supplies.

Towns that are unliveable without a car.
Re:Farm country feeds America, but try buying groceries there on Tuesday November 05, 2019 @10:43AM (#21453338)
Yes, this exists. A majority of my family lives in Ohio, and the town they live in is about 20 miles to the nearest Walmart.

MCAS is a terrible software solution to an engineering problem. On top of that, no sufficient training for the pilots to cover up there awful solution.

There's deaths caused by Boeing's greed and lack of competition against Airbus' new planes.

Due to a lot of the controls and even speedometer only being accessible through the screen, it's probably easier for them to keep it on their own OS.

ok

What does being a retired AI researcher with a Ph.D. have anything to do with being aware of the language abilities of other animals?

He may be seeing these coming in at a higher rate than other objects. Bird has set up a business of transporting heavy scooters that wasn't there before. I've seen people ride 4 at one time to transport them home to charge
