Revisit frequency and spatial resolution aren’t high enough to meaningfully and uniquely identify vehicles without additional data.

The thing about Norway is that it’s a cold, barren, remote place where very few people want to live. Most of the year it’s cold and gray, and most of the country is uninhabitable.

The result is that its natural resources haven’t been consumed to the degree that most developed countries’ resources have, and there aren’t as many people to consume them.

I find it a strangely fair situation. Their luck comes from having friendly neighbors who care about their well-being and responsible development.

I think op is referring to a TS Elliot poem

I sat in on a lecture by a Stanford geophysicist, and he said that seismologists have every legal incentive to communicate that a large earthquake is imminent in the Bay, even if their work is inconclusive or suggests otherwise.

They might get sued or prosecuted if they say it’s safe and a big one strikes.

Imagine all of the unnecessary insurance and “Google tech support” you’re missing out on purchasing.

The substances needed to efficiently extract the materials of interest and separate them from the remaining ore can be a toxic.

Does anybody remember that movie Minority Report with Tom Cruise?

Eye transplants were available in that realist dys/utopian future.

$500B is more than a haircut, it's a whole head shave with the eyebrows included

Writing a worker that does general purpose proxying is hard.

Unlike Workers, we made Snow Owl more user friendly and no/low code, with a robust rules engine for custom routing. All requests are logged by default for rapid debugging. It's intended for all members of development teams to commonly handle network operations and site maintenance, especially for maximizing uptime.

While this is an incredibly serious issue, the fraud the article focuses on is billing for services that don't really get provided, which is very different than pushing unnecessary procedures.

We built Snow Owl after two incidents at our last company required us to build reverse proxies from scratch. We thought it would take a few days but they ended up taking two months to build, and we knew there must be a better way.

Snow Owl sits in front of your back end, enabling request-level monitoring for rapid debugging, and conditional routing based on a rules engine. It sets up in less than 20 minutes and is cloud agnostic.

For those of you implementing microservices, this is one great way to do it without getting into the complexities of Kubernetes.

We'd love to hear your feedback, input, and questions!
