Ironic. This page has an embedded YouTube link where YouTube slapped me with a captcha response.Ironic given the content.

> principles of science and logic as far as we're "aware" apply "outside" of the "human experience"

On the contrary if you take a critical thinking course, you'll see that your logic does apply to the human experience

I've seen this map several times, but never really looked at it closely. What a devastating march!

What does autonomous mean in this context?

Article is paywalled. If someone can see it: is the premise that Google is harvesting patient data for their own AI/ML healthcare projects' benefit? Or is this just cloud storage (Cerner putting objects in a bucket)? Or both...

I mean, I have already flown on them dozens of times prior to the catastrophic events, so I’m not really opposed to boarding them again after recertification.

Then again, it’s not clear to me what else they “covered up” or issues that this new article is focused on. I’d be happy for the FAA to delay them further and get to the bottom of this.

> Today Tasmania is burning. Its fires are so large that a firefighting team was reportedly called out in New Zealand to investigate a heavy smoke haze that turned out to have drifted across 2,500km of ocean from the Tasmanian fires. Firefighters are confronted with 1,629km of fire front, with fires having consumed 190,000 hectares, or 3% of Tasmania’s land, with authorities warning there is no sign of the fires abating for several weeks, and the potential for catastrophic consequences still a distinct possibility.

Geez. Tasmania is beautiful, and that sole island contains many of Australia's national parks. EDIT: Hmm, this article is from Feb 2019

> It also needs to be actually decentralized, the way the web and Internet are.

The more you look at the web/Internet, you’ll notice it’s not as decentralized as most people believe

Hi veuxdo, this is a really cool project! Do you have an open source project for the code? Curious what you built this with and whether I can contribute to the code..

Sounds like you can also seek out that manager and properly thank him over a meal! I'm glad your wife got to safety

Why would ZFS' license be related to the outcome of this court case?

I’ve experienced that while on the ground (also an Embraer I think). Was your experience in the air? I think I’d hold my breath if that happened while mid flight.

> The OS0 lidar sensor: an ultra-wide field of view sensor with 128 lines of resolution

> The OS2 lidar sensor: a long-range sensor with up to 128 lines of resolution

> Two new 32 channel sensors: both an OS0 and OS2 version

I would LOVE to get my hands on this tech. Maybe in 5-10 years when the price comes down to commodity level for hackers to play around with. :-)

Since LIDARs impact airflow over the top of a car, is there a way to make LIDARs less spherical and more triangular or elliptical? How would that impact the scans and can that impact be corrected/recalibrated mathematically?

We get a lot of rabbits.. How do you keep them out of your produce?

What are the negatives that the six-month term sheet implies that I'm missing (I'm not familiar with them)?
