Frankly, I’m impressed with both Waymo the car and Waymo the company reactions to the accident. The only shallow knee-jerk reaction came from S.F. Supervisor Shamann Walton.
I briefly worked with Hans around 2005. My impression at the time was that he declined the manslaughter plea because he thought he was smarter than everyone around him.
Well, not really. In order to immigrate, or even simply travel outside, one had to get a permission first. And one was not usually granted to those who had access to any state secret.
It is not important how unlikely are the odds. What's important is to be prepared when the chance does present itself and that requires talent and years of training.
So I think you misread the narrative, it's not about striking gold.
"...efforts to "fast track" the Utah project bypassed regular quality controls in design and construction." If the history of former USSR has any relevance to the present day USA -- and I suspect it does -- we will see more and more screwups like this one.
There is more regarding zSearch: "... computer search tool called osTriage/zSEARCH. The search tool allows investigators to find child pornography without damaging the forensic integrity of a computer." http://attorneygeneral.utah.gov/PR_122011.html
So what do we have? A bunch of weak passwords. Not bad they are revealed, actually, should educate some a bit. Still, revealing the passwords without the email addresses would've been a bit more responsible.
On the other hand, do they really store house.gov passwords unencrypted? I'm not even talking about salted vs unsalted hash here, just plaintext? Seriously?
Am I the only one who noticed, that the other, more realistic number 20 minutes is omitted in the NYT article. See "the established ACSM guidelines for high-intensity exercise of at least 20 minutes is recommended" in the original article.
Great article, but totally misleading title. It's about a secret Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) agreement which Wall Street may use to kill one very sound state bank.
The argument that Asians are over-represented and it proves the absence of any quotes reminded me of identical arguments I heard in the former USSR. They claimed over-representation of Jews in science, engineering, entertainment was a proof there was no anti-semitism!
Is this law even constitutional? Doesn't it violate the first amendment?
