If your ship is "crewed" remotely by staff which go home every night, you'll need three 8-hour shifts. Increasing personnel costs by 2x.
You can put the same remote crew on a bunch of ships at once. Your three 8 hour shifts might be able to monitor 20 ships. They also demand less pay because they don't have to leave their families and be stuck at sea.
Piracy is virtually nonexistent in 99% of the ocean. And an autonomous ship means there's nobody for pirates to kidnap and ransom, and no reason for automated / remotely controlled gun turrets or other defensive systems on the ship to be cautious.
IE6 didn't ignore standards because they wanted to innovate and figured they were big enough to force others to follow them. IE6 ignored standards because they couldn't be bothered to implement anything and it was basically abandonware.
What I want is to actually stop videos from autoplaying so they don't waste my data and slow my computer. I've got extensions that stop some videos but nothing stops them all.
Google isn't considering selling the censorship technology. Logically, any google search product can only add (however slightly) to the pool of information available to people in China. What's the sense of refusing to provide any information on the basis that they're not allowed to provide certain additional information? They already thoroughly tested whether packing up their bag and leaving would pressure China into changing laws -- it didn't.
The constitution gives congress the power to regulate interstate commerce if and when it so chooses but makes no prohibition against the states, and the 10th amendment says "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people." If congress has not chosen to regulate this form of interstate commerce, isn't that right reserved to the states until congress acts to say otherwise?
States have use taxes on items you buy from other states, and agricultural checkpoints on their borders, so clearly the fact that something moves across a state line doesn't mean it can't be regulated by a state -- unless congress says so.
Firefox really can't depreciate the API, because they don't control webextensions. Live bookmarks extensions work fine in Chrome, so they'll work fine in Firefox.
I'd be very surprised if you took a group of same-age individuals- say one hundred 25yo men and 100 25yo women- if more than 10 women were stronger than the weakest 10 men-
Close to 10% of men are probably weaker than even an average woman purely on the basis of chronic disease. More than 10% of men are obese office workers or basement nerds who've never worked out in their life. And at least 20% of women -- and men -- are fairly athletic and thus likely to be stronger than those who don't try.
Moonlet strongly implies a small moon. Submoon could lead people to think that too but not as much. Given that we believe there's an exomoon the size of Neptune, it could perhaps have a moonmoon the size of Earth -- or at least the Earth's moon. So these aren't necessarily small objects.
And what allows SpaceX to hire the best people? A company vision set by Musk. Musk's Mars colony goal, as opposed to the "make money" goal of the rest of the industry, is what got him the talent. Whether you are about colonizing Mars or not, it's inspiring to rocket scientists and responsible for the advances we've seen from SpaceX.
The military isn't in the business of funding unnecessarily risky ventures. The unknowns for BFR are much larger than for the other rockets, so if they have no use for the advancement they have no reason to fund it and may as well make a safer pick.
NASA ought to be funding BFR (and New Glenn) via canceling and diverting SLS funds.
SDC cameras surely must be capable of detected the absence of stop signs / stoplights by now, and deducing from the shape of the road that this must be a roundabout.
Self-driving cars have been racking up test track miles since the 1990s. I remember watching shows about it back then. The only option to satisfy you, apparently, is to stop every driver to get them to sign a consent form. Which is absurd.
Companies routinely offer financing on far, far cheaper products. Heck, infomercials offered to finance your salad shooters and chia pets into 4 easy payments of $19.95.
On what kind of machine is KDE slow? It's perfect on my 8 year old low end used PC I spent $150 on. Stable too, though I admit that stops being true for years when they launch a major version like KDE 4 or Plasma 5.
Because highways are actually the easy part for self-driving cars, and disorganized alleys and dirt roads and parking lots are the hard part. Perhaps we should instead pass a law saying they must travel at least 65 MPH, then decrease it by 5 MPH a year.
There are plenty of people like me who are way too poor for Whole Foods or Nugget, and who like to shop for our own food in a pleasant atmosphere, but do not wish to endure the agony of the Walmart atmosphere. That's why I go to Safeway. The middle ground may not be trendy like the extremes are, but it's what most people actually want.
Sierra Nevada has a better chance of servicing Hubble than SpaceX. Their Dream Chaser vehicle has the required attributes, with the only drawback being that it doesn't exist yet.
Surely it's much more practical to use a drone for terrorism. That way you can fly your bomb into the actual building instead of leaving it on the street.
Beyond the accident rate, we'll also need to consider the types of accidents. It's possible that SDCs will cause more accidents than human drivers but will be driving much more cautiously at the time resulting in lower severe injury and fatality rates. Of course, not being Waymo employees, we have no clue at the moment.

That list makes me wonder what people in the Maldives do with their two phones per person.

Volcanic vents under the see are more dynamic by any reasonable measure than the surface.
Step #1 is very, very difficult -- particularly regarding life far below the surface in unusual habitats.

The article very specifically states that only equatorial conditions would allow large shards, leaving the rest of the moon free of them.

30 years is about the minimum, because there are a significant number of people driving 25 year old cars.
