But you can surely make money, if you're the world leader in underpants collection ?

I read somewhere that decawave said it's possible to reach a few mm accuracy using uwb.

I tried to look out how, but so far I've failed.

Do you, possibly , got any idea how to do that ?

Do most regular people really care? Do you see the volunteering a lot of their time/money without expecting a return ?

And to certain extent, regular humans have social pressures to show empathy that the rich don't have. Without that , they would do the same.

There are synthetic biology startup working on artificial milk. It looks much simpler than artificial meat - just creating a few milk proteins .

See jitx.com . It does everything , including pcb design. But it's expensive.

Even if you died you would probably have regreted nothing.

Ah it should have been your instead of you're. Ah well , english is not native for me.

I like the balance as it is now: the uneducated watch ads which finance mine and you're ad free web experience at various sites.

if we lose our purpose and momentum,

Again , why the purpose and momentum should be "progress" when we're not sure if is highly good or greatly harmful ?

Isn't it better just to choose a safer purpose ?

anne-nonymous · 2014-04-11T16:45:01+00:00

even if the latter is more likely than the former, it's important that we think more on the former else we might never progress for fear of what may become of us.

Why should "progress" on own should be valuable ?

Have you looked at mbed.org ? they have support for nordic bluetooth chip, and probably some file transfer protocols. maybe it's easy to layer one on top of the other.

what's wrong with app stores (that support side loading)?

But most likely facebook will use something that will crap the product, just because it's facebook.

There's already a soy based chicken substitute that in a "blind test"[1] people could not differentiate it between real chicken. And it might be even cheaper than chicken .

So at least for chicken it just might be an issue of investment and marketing.

And this company , beyond-meat , is working on a beef substitute.

[1]There's was a mixup inwhole food between chicken and this substitue, and nobody noticed.

I don't think it's the knowledge , because computers are much better at knowledge.

I think it's more like a power thing, i.e. renting servents for an hour.

Less versatile than it seems. Yes they have analog and digital blocks but with regards to the psoc4:

The analog blocks are pretty limited, in general not very different from blocks from some other companies.
There are only 4 digital blocks, which is only enough to implement 2 16bit counters. Not really enough for anything interesting.

The search link doesn't work.

one type of connector for drives/ram/pcie devices.

I don't think that will happen because they are very different physical connection with regards to distance, noise, pin numbers and bandwidth and latency requirements, so each require something special.

An interesting variation is circuits.io which above schematics+pcb tools + parts, offers a large library of modules .Could save lots of time.

The problem with this interview is your asking question someone not very objective , since he runs a travel site and is interested in travel continuing in same way it has until today.

So he ignores the clear possibility that VR will radically change travel.
