Geez, I hope not. Remember the disaster when AOL Research thought releasing search history was a good idea?

Great point. They created an MVP, it worked, and then put resources in when and where the needs declared themselves (stability, scaling...).

Considering the millions of miles driven each day, even if the networked signal wasn't heavily weighted, a spoofed emergency brake advisor signal could still do significant damage.

A copy-paste litmus test is silly. You don't get to copy and paste Harry Potter just because it's in plaintext. Creators don't surrender their rights just because it's easy to steal them.

I'm with you but the F#-Websharper stack already exists for isomorphic ML coding in both the front and backends. Reason/bucklescript is only on the frontend and is an entirely different "dialect" compared to OCaml.

Will you integrate with React Native?

Serious question, what are you doing better compared to AWS? Efficiency wise, what can't you offer your own cloud services and cash in on 40-50% markup?

I can think of one-- we had a 96-element datatable (12x8) and limited space in our biochemical journal article. We were looking to graphically show differences in orders of magnitude to help explain the assay. A 3d column chart fit the bill because we could show lots of data in a small space, and readers could quickly see the range of values.

Wow. Google deprecating Chrome apps will hurt the Chromebook ecosystem, who will develop apps that can only be run on a Chromebook? What's up their sleeve here? Expanding the Play store to desktops?

Agreed for the most part, although there are rare valid uses for 3d graphs. I think most contemporary data vis people would say that Excel makes it possible to make pie charts at all means it may encourage bad practices.

My theory is the tortured (pompous) language exists to make articles seem more complex and important than they actually are.

No direct value, but he may otherwise share their stories and "upvote" them.
