Years ago he called lidar a crutch...

And I agree, it is. Clearly it is theoretically possible without.

But when you can't walk at all, a crutch might be just what you need to get going before you can do it without the crutch!

Internal firewalls and poor management means that the vast majority of integration opportunities are missed.

Do wayno models really use side cameras at only like 4 FPS?

Set the server to require cloudflares SSL client cert, so nobody can connect to it directly.

Then make sure every page is cacheable and your costs will drop to near zero instantly.

It's like 20 mins to set these things up.

It's stuff like that that ensures the price stays up to some extent. At some point people are willing to buy some. I expect the bottom will be over $30k this time.

There are about 20 million BTC mined so far, multiplied by 1 cent each equals $200,000.

That seems like a lot of money to waste.

I will buy every Bitcoin in existence for approximately one twenty millionth of a cent each.

That made me laugh :)

A company I worked for had a 'when the police raid the office' policy, which was to require they smash down the first door, but then open all other doors for them.

That was so that later in court it could be demonstrated the data hadn't been handed over voluntarily.

They also disconnected and blocked all overseas VPN's in the process, so local law enforcement only would get access to local data.

200 million people speak Swahili.

39 million people speak Polish, and most of those also speak English or another more common language.

You could say the same about Dutch to be fair. 90-95% speak English - I bet that's way higher than in Poland.

As an American, my perspective is that Dutch people speak better English than a large percentage of English people and Americans.

As a Dutch person, I'm very doubtful that's the case, but I'm willing to bet a good ESL speaker is more aware of common grammatical errors than some native speakers. For example, the your/you're mixup makes no sense if you've had to explicitly learn about English contractions in the first place.

Heh, based on my incorrect and probably wrong experience Dutch and Swedes are the best non-native english speakers in term of both the accent and fluency.

Those and Icelandic people. But there's a fun correlation - see how much the US media content is played compared to local one per country. And which countries use subs rather than dubs or voiceovers in cinemas and TV. https://publications.europa.eu/resource/cellar/e4d5cbf4-a839...

If you have exposure to English media from young age and don't get a translation, you learn pretty quickly.

Looks pretty logical to me...

It is AGPL 3.0, except they give you slightly more rights with a promise not to enforce certain provisions in certain circumstances.

It's not AGPL 3.0. The binaries are MIT, the codebase (from where the MIT binaries are built from) is AGPL 3.0, except for the bits of the codebase that are Apache 2.0, and there's some kind of a promise about not enforcing a part of AGPL if you don't link to their platform directly and exclusively use the bits of the code that are Apache 2.0, and also don't make a modified version of the software. And also you can just license it commercially too.

Yes you can

There is an app called 'PetrolPrices' which seems to have a pretty complete price database. It's much better than this government API so far.

That's often out of date, and the UI is pretty buggy (at least on iOS).

There's also 'Gaspy' which is really a NZ app that was very popular in NZ (I used to live there) where people submit and confirm prices, but in the UK there aren't that many users (hasn't got critical mass), so there are often no prices or things are very out-of-date.

I’ve used that app for some time but unfortunately it relies on user reporting, and the prices can be days or weeks out of date.

The AA also show prices through their app.
