So the only risk factor here, is when the laser points through the windows into the cabin?
What is the risk involved when the laser beam goes vertical parallel to (not hitting) a cabin window?

The pilots and their windows are on the top side of the aircraft. The lasers are pointed to its belly. Can that do any dazzle/harm whatsoever?
I imagine a landing with horizontal lasers would, but while trafficking (likely by autopilot) i doubt that.

They should just inflate the autopilot.

Hear hear. I find the pictures on beta a distraction.

I have nothing against BETA design, except perhaps that it has less room for text.
I just hope my boss doesnt think i'm venturing on some "The 9 Things About Cats You Should Know" website or Youtube..

I believe they designed servers and integrated some smart software to be able to do that with great performance.
But you can duct-tape this kind of recovery on commodity servers if they boot via PXE/TFTP on a rudementary but very effective level though, in tandem with one configuration channel each that you could have fallback for quite simply.

I imagine rollout scripts would first check if rollout to a test-subset is succesfull before continueing with all production servers. I speculate this article might just be about this subset, but story being spiced/beefed up in spite of more exceting/serious errors at server heaven.

The hardware is not ready, at least not until they use hardware to build composite mutation-images that show relevant (pixel) changes only. There is no point in trying to parse a single image a second, or -on the opposite side- a video stream.

In my opinion, efficient wearable vision software should ignore lower quality versions of what it already saw, it would make a huge efficiency leap. I believe this architecture ultimately would be a software skeleton for a mental world reconstruction much like humans perceive.

There i fixed that for you.

No. For simple users i would go with an ipad.
Seniors dont care about investing (time/attention/money) in more possibilities or the latest technology, they just want the most fool-proof solution to their problem.

Works great. Searchable. Allows any hierarchy. Downside is a file can/should only exist in one folder, you could migate this using multiple playlists.

Mexico is going to see a whole lot of trucks with a nuclear sticker soon, if this proves to help being stolen.

I saw no new frontpage stories for over a day, whats up /. ?

This is not going to help the developers that ponder developing a Windows RT app right now.
I have no Windows8 or RT phobia, but this news (if true) would put me off..

Time to up my karma..
