so they can purposely botch it and justify the need to have human operators. in case you don't know, BART is currently going through a tense union battle resulting in a few worker strikes and contract disputes.

Nokia has been effectively castrated. It's only a matter of time now for the rest of the company to devalue even more. That means purchasing patents for even cheaper in the future.

Steven Elop works for microsoft. Steven Elop goes to Nokia. Steven Elop restructures and retools Nokia to be a Microsoft shop. Steven Elop cuts Nokia's market cap in half. Microsoft buys Nokia. Steven Elop becomes CEO of Microsoft in a few years (after Ballmer's successor resigns after 2 years). You guys connect the dots yet? I'm sure Nokia has a lot of patents Microsoft wants.

this is a triumph; huge success. (rip clam)

Additionally, any violations of these laws will result in life imprisonment for the board of directors and all executives.

"Dixon crossed the line between free speech protected under the First Amendment and criminal conduct when he told some clients to conceal what he taught them while undergoing government polygraphs."
Assuming the summary is accurate, he crossed the line when he instructed them to lie. There is a big difference between teaching people how to circumvent a polygraph test and overtly instructing them to lie.

quacker.

a direction vector and a rolling average should fix the problem you mentioned about passing over a slower zone.

just throw more big data at it.

I understand that the word may be abused, but even I have used the word 'synergy' to describe what I'd hope for when joining a new team of engineers - I'd want a well organized, cooperative team of people to work with. I guess it's all about the context.

I'm envisioning an exponential drop-off for the vacuum required to sustain individual freight transportation.

Any freight carrier going (at a proposed) 4000mph (forgive me if I misread the theoretical estimates -- which are innately theoretical) will benefit any shipping carrier like Amazon. At these speeds, I don't think perishable cargo would be a limiting factor.

I think it would be a much better replacement for freight trains and trucks. I'm guessing that may be their goal but they don't want to upset the train and trucker unions just yet. I'd say Amazon should get it on this as well to speed up their shipping times and hit their same-day delivery dream.
