Who are you to speak on behalf of society? Wouldn't society also be better off if those who stole your car got caught?
Further, I'm not sure why there is an expectation of privacy in public places. You don't have to consent to being filmed when you're walking down a public sidewalk.
Data centers consume...a lot...of water by design, recirculated water, does not means no water consumption.
Water must be continuously added in evaporative cooling systems used by many data centers.
[1] - Cooling towers reject heat through evaporation, which uses water, not just recirculates it. Evaporated water is lost to the atmosphere and must be replaced with "make-up" water. As a result, recirculating cooling loops still require new water input to make up evaporation and blowdown losses.
Anyone who thinks that modern data centers don't evaporate their "recirculated FRESH water" straight into the ocean can safely have their opinions summarily discarded.
What if there were a cooler that somehow didn't evaporate water, you might even call it a "dry cooler" - that would be a sweet invention. This might even be required in areas where adiabatic cooling isn't effective (humid climates)!
Insurance is negative NPV. Trying to make it NPV neutral by giving people tools to self-insure. Starting with an app that lets you self-insure your phone with friends and family.
This is cool. I'm interested in reading more on this concept. Any chance you have a write up of experiences so far? Or can you point to other resources?
It’s real, my friends and I all pay premiums every month, we’ve put aside $1100 so far. Work on it nights and weekends with one of my fellow policy holders. Feedback would be super appreciated.
I don't want to track any of this myself. I want to walk into a gym, have some cameras follow me around, and have it analyze what I did while I was there, including statistics over time.
I'd be wary about 4. I've worked at a fintech startup before where the founders boasted about how they had moved all their net worth onto the platform. Some time later over a casual chat and drinks, it turned out this was far from the truth. Don't just take people's word for it, I may be biased about startups now, but "trust but verify" is a good motto to go by.
Just to answer some questions I'm seeing from other comments, this is built with three.js. Think of it as a 3d scene with an image rendered on a 2d plane and the camera has certain gaussian blur applied to a section of it. He's using orbit controls for the zoom in/out and for the ability to pivot the image.
