So, what makes you so interesting that we would want to waste our limited battery/storage (mostly battery) recording you?

Glass is the worst covert surveillance and recording tool on the planet for a variety of reasons, and this is one of them.

This is why I own a GlassKap. :)

So by "keeping a running commentary", do you mean that it was obvious the person was actually using Glass to record his companion narrating the whole thing?

If so, then yeah, he's a Glasshole and deserved to get kicked out.

If not, then assuming that he was recording when he probably wasn't (was the display lit up the whole time?) is BS.

Don't call Glass users Glassholes unless they're actually BEING assholes.

It doesn't help that paid wi-fi has a tendency to just cause people to switch to tethering now - which potentially causes performance problems for the paid users.

Yeah. HSPA+ is no slouch.

People's desires for LTE in the US stem from the fact that CDMA2000 1x data service (aka CDMA 3G) was poo.

In the US, AT&T never deployed DC-HSPA+ (42 Mbps support) and I think may never have even deployed 21 megabit HSPA+ - while I believe DC-HSPA+ is fairly common in Europe.

That's the biggest problem with 3D - the lack of content.

It's shocking how many movies were filmed in 2D and 3D was added in postproc - kind of like the oldschool colorization of B&W films. Most of these looked like crap when viewed in 3D.

3D would have been more popular if there were more GOOD 3D content.

The marketing seems to be dependent on the fact that many cinema screens are curved, and thus a curved TV is more "cinema-like"

There's a reason for this - anamorphic projection lenses used for extreme widescreen (2.35:1 for example) have distortion that is corrected by a curved screen.

Curved 16:9 is pointless. Even curved 2.35:1 LCD is likely pointless since you're not correcting for an anamorphic projection lens.

In addition, in many cases, even if the vaccine is not fully effective, a vaccinated individual is likely to have a less severe infection and stay contagious for a shorter period of time.

Yup. Remember the IFR design?

I think one of the statistics was that it could meet all of our electrical needs for a century - using only waste from existing reactors. (and that statistic was two decades ago.)

In addition to extracting much more energy from the fuel, the waste was much easier to manage. While it was EXTREMELY radioactive initially, the volume of the waste was very low, and more importantly, within 200 years it would decay to the point where it was safe (radiologically speaking, at least. Some of those metals are nasty even when a stable isotope.)

Yeah. At some point, no one is going to want to be CEO/CFO.

Massive CEO/CFO churn is a sign of a company in deep, serious trouble. Companies can handle occasional sudden losses of key personnel, but if it happens on a regular basis - that company is fucked.

It's also going to be bad for morale if the CEO/CFO keep getting whacked. Now, in the short term the company might have enough succession/disaster recovery plans to keep continuity going, but if the CEO/CFO in a company keep dying (as do the CEOs/CFOs of all other companies in the same industry), the employees are eventually going to say, "Fuck this, time for a career change."

In short, Play Store is NOT included with AOSP.

CM received a pretty nasty cease-and-desist letter from Google regarding gapps a few years ago. The "workaround" was that users could exctract the gapps suite from their device and reinstall it.

And yes, the current approach doesn't quite meet that legal definition, but what is protecting CM (and other projects) is that *they are not hosting gapps* - have you noticed that for any project, when you're instructed to get gapps, you're routed *elsewhere*?

Kinda screams "not included" to me.

(Note: CyanogenMod 10.2 on the Oppo N1 and CM 11S on the OnePlus One are special cases. These are the ONLY devices where CM has gone through the full GMS certification/approval process.)

Except that basically all phones on the market have been dual-constellation (or more, some support Galileo too) since early 2012 or so.

Russia put MASSIVE import taxes on navigation devices that didn't support GLONASS, so all phone manufacturers switched to dual-constellation chips as it was FAR cheaper than the tax penalty.

Yup. Really, critical thinking/troubleshooting skills and organizational skills are far more important than your familiarity with any given language. Ability to adapt/learn on your own is next.

In the OP's case, he's probably in very good shape due to his experience with hardware engineering and embedded development. Software guys who understand what the underlying hardware means for them are RARE. The OP might want to look into platform/BSP maintenance jobs for embedded devices - the smartphone software industry is especially hot right now. Lots of companies are having trouble hiring enough competent software engineers.

I think the FAA has jurisdiction over anything that flies.

They just say, "Keep within these limits and we won't care what you do." So the question is whether this guy's recklessnes exceeded those limits.

Kind of similar to how the FCC has jurisdiction over the ISM bands - they just say "stay below this power level and and a few other limits and you can do anything you want in that band"
