From what I can tell it looks like the pedestrian’s vector is heading away from the car (right to left) for a few frames before he pauses. Couldn’t a level 5 model infer intentionality in a direction based on the way the pedestrian was walking?

"3. New frameworks. Building and iterating VR apps is going to have to get a lot easier."

Hasn't Unity already cemented itself as the go-to framework for VR? Has anyone seen anything better?

Stating the obvious here: It's pretty interesting to think about the tradeoffs here. As a user I understand the obvious privacy benefits of this move. As a developer, I found having access to that data quite useful sometimes.

It should be fixed now. Note to self: host images on imgur not dropbox.

Yikes. Let me see what the deal is.

MyClean offers services in one domestic market (NYC). Homejoy offers services in 31.

Does someone more versed in the space care to comment? The title seems like link bait, and I'd bet there are some not so absurd reasons for a lot of these.

How do they demonstrate this is not mere classical conditioning? Perhaps the mice are simple afraid of all chambers after the shock.

Good points, but the folks at Funders Club are professional investors. The referrers only get a kickback when FundersClub chooses to invest, and FundersClub will only do so if they think the company will be sufficiently successful. A standard which is likely higher than an unprofessional accredited investor's.

Disagreed. It's natural for the business head of a fashion shop to be at or above the same "level" as the creative director. Deneve's expertise is the strategy, operations, and business of fashion and should therefore report to Apple's head of business, strategy, and operations, Tim Cook.

This is a solid snapshot of the actual state of affairs. What it really does is demonstrate how nuanced economics is, and how the article ignores these subtleties which make or break "good" economic policy. For instance, there is a massive difference between keynesian and neo-keynesian policy which the article completely ignores.

Any particular reason you are reposting this today?

>As to Warren's letter, she has spent her entire career in academics and has never worked as a lawyer. She does not know the amount of resources required to participate in a lawsuit and trial.

The fact that she has spent her entire career in academics does not mean she is unaware of the costs and benefits of going to trial. But, even if your invalid premise was correct, that's the entire point of the letter. She is asking for an analysis of the costs and benefits of going to trial.

> As lawyers, we are constantly encouraged to settle cases to resolve issues rather than spend the time and expense going to trial. We should not be encouraging the government to sue people and take them to trial when they are willing to settle.

This blanket statement is ridiculous. We're talking about stakes that are higher than you (or anyone) can count. If banks do not have the proper incentives they could easily wreak havoc on the world economy. A few billion dollar settlement does not provide the proper incentives for organizations worth 100s of billions of dollars.

>To take a case to a show trial in order to make an public example of the defendant is bad policy more fitting of a dictatorship.

Warren is a member of the legislative branch not the executive branch, which balances the power of the executive branch. Moreover, she is not trying to subvert any sort of due process. She is merely asking questions. This is contrary to the very nature of a dictatorship.

It is when the company in question has a market cap of more than $100 billion.

The selection bias on this poll seems massive. Interesting discussion none the less.

Definitely a good starting point. 23andMe is leading the charge in consumer facing genomics. I wonder what it would take to compete with them?

Thanks, Mark. Much appreciated.

The entire point is that Affirm looks at data from your social network(s) to establish an alternative metric for credibility.

You need to be an accredited investor to use the site. Your fear is of the Jobs act, not FundersClub.

Good point, but you can also probably get the permits far more easily than a Palestinian living in the West Bank who doesn't speak the language of the government that he does not recognize.

Did you read the disclaimer :) ? I thought the actual product was genuinely cute.

It also lacks anything close to a significant sample size. His observations, and to be fair most of the response here, are purely anecdotal.

This doesn't address what you want perfectly, but you might find it interesting.
