"I think eventually driving without insurance will be legalized", i wonder if that would require pre-start check. meaning, is the vehicle up to standards for the road it needs to be driven upon. Has regular maintenance been performed, is it running the latest firmware and antivirus. You may be able to remove the human factor if no humans are in the car. Some one will have to pay if the car has a crash for whatever reason and injures or damages another. I can see it going down... but never away.
There should be a MAX speed based on road conditions, the vehicle's condition, traffic flow and not on the driver's inability to drive, pay attention, care or realize that there are other people on the road and that they are real.
Probably the only positive reason I can see for being "OK" with automated vehicles.
also FTFY " that person who is faster than you, that you hate so much, has the right to go the speed he/she wants to, and pass that car that wants to go slower."
the mistake i made was to do the initial setup using a microsoft live id for my wife (her machine). apparently if you do that bitlocker works this way.
unfortunately in 8.1 it is on by default if you use your ms account to set it up. my understanding is that since in surface2 bitlocker has a limited functionality and is susceptible to hacks ms pushed out the update to force recoverykey after a cold boot. also there is no way to turn off bitlocker in 8.1, if you don't care to implement this feature. annnnd there is no pin or password feature so you have to type in the entire 25 character randomly generated recovery key everytime...
just a counter point, back then people made things for money, now we copy things for money. the economy has changed and the rules changed with it. However i think its time for the rules to change yet again.
i agree mostly, except after the firmware update any cold boot requires me to type in the 25 pin bitlocker key... not fun. MS has acknowledge the "bug" but no fixes yet...
If we take your argument as logically true, the percentage of student worker bees (hey I resemble that remark, a little) that would benefit from a test oriented education system still out weighs the creative/entrepreneurial (hey I resemble that remark, a little).
Further " there are plenty of entrepreneurs that are terrible at "tests"" and there are just as many that are great at tests. I would suggest that test "results" are there to categorize people because all people are not created equally. I might fail at a math test but excel at creative writing test. I might fail in art drawing but excel at gymnastics competition. A test is no more than a teaching and learning process, how we choose to and utilize the results of said tests is a different question altogether.
Now if we take standardized testing and try to mold every student in one image and then tie funding to the results... then i agree we are just setting up to fail.
"In the end, it doesn't matter what school district you reside in, or how much money they can throw at each child... expectations of good education from public schools are misplaced."
I beg to differ, though I agree that more money does not solve the problem, expectations of good education from a public school are certainly not misplaced. The public school I attended, had recruited and retained great teachers from all over, including some from outside the country. The administration and the parents takes education seriously, 80 percent of students go to some sort of higher education, graduation rates are above 98%... all from a public school.
Now!! how many schools are like this? and is there will to make "it" happen elsewhere? i don't have those answers.
