But you completely glossed over the 3.5 million people who are now unemployed in an industry that won't come back. They want to take the skills they have (driving a truck) and earn a living. You think those last-mile freelance Amazon drivers are earning a good living? Think again.
"The economy is growing!" Not for them it's not.
And I also feel sorry for these buggy whip... I mean truck drivers.
Progress is a net positive, but there are localised negatives. If you worry about these then how about coming up with a solution (eg Universal Basic Income or Government guaranteed training courses or...) rather than saying we should stop progress.
Facebook tested similar already (a month ago) separating "news feed" (public/brand content) from "friend feed".
But I guess the tilt for FB is that doing this forces companies to pay for ads to get into the friend feed rather than have their company FB page show up in the regular feed.
But don't let the truth get in the way... carry on.
If everything you test works, you're a) doing the same boring shit that's been done and b) over-engineering, making things much more expensive than they should be.
or c) you aren't testing correctly (thoroughly enough)
I always kind of thought it more suited an Apple type brand.
Google just never had enough salesmanship to turn "condescending self importance" into "cool" which is the hurdle these things must clear. Amazon will fail for the same reason.
But seriously... The article talks about autonomous vehicles being a needed pre-requisite. Read the comments and there are at least half a dozen threads starting with variation of
"but people suck at normal driving"
turns out people suck at reading and just want to be the first to shout. I want to go back to the days where there was some intelligent conversation on here
You mean it only has a 1 in a million chance of recognizing you? I doubt very much if that is what you meant to say. Presumably you mean 1 in a million false-negatives!
I would say the false positives is the more important metric (and what they are talking about here).
Who cares if 1 in 50K (or 1M) logins don't work, try again! Everyone cares if 1 in 50K (1M) people can touch (point at their face) and unlock your phone.

"roughly 5% of total petroleum used goes to the production of plastics"
cars aren't the only way you use petroleum (or gas as you guys call it) so your point isn't really true
yay for feeding the trolls! ... quick reply to his next post too!

Beijing is not "anywhere" else. It's a closed-off totalitarian regime by default. Fuck that equivalence.
So exactly like the US (minus the illusion that the working class have a say in running the country)
Especially so if your skin isn't white or you don't worship the "correct" god

It might just wake up that maniac with the bad haircut.
Yep Trump does need to wake up.
Oh you meant someone else?
no he's on third

Why do people always overlook that one?!?!
One word:
Saturation [of the wireless link].
I'll leave you to contemplate the consequences.
Yep, there is no evidence that IT is a hostile workplace for women...
sigh.
At the very least you could've said "if she or he sounds hot" so it is an equally predatory environment.
And I'd rather call bullshit than listen to you give ridiculous exaggerations about your moral superiority.
Yep. They really optimised the time it took to render the error page.
"draw a box 400 miles long and 70 miles across"
where did the 700 come from?
I am, I know I my software is fallible - but that is because I am. So the bar for AI is quite low.
Plus humans don't come with unit tests!
(their programming just adapts however the hell it wants with no set goal in mind)
not sure tesla et al is gathering the lidar etc data to get the level of quality needed for autonomous progess
(although given enough investment in algorithms they can probably work with poorer source data)
Given that a lot of people who are interested in the waterproof aspect will visit beaches etc...
Aluminium rear probably won't last,
and for all the "different types of water" they tested there is no mention about how the waterproofing holds up in salt water
google his recent hires - lots of experience across fields, even including ex Tesla staff.
Smart people surround themselves with the knowledgeable people they need and then just pull them all together.

Only Steve Jobs era Apple could've pulled it off.
yeah yeah "welcome to /." etc

It makes sense to have a little forethought and anticipate which kinds of problems you might run into
What problems do you anticipate from preventing young adults from dying? The worst that could reasonably happen is...
... overpopulation leading to contention over food resources resulting in all out nuclear war wiping all life permanently from the face of the earth.
This is why people get in trouble, because they lack imagination for the big problems
There's lots of folks who don't _want_ the world automated. Good luck dealing with those people...
Easy... automate the crowd supression/anti riot response! :)
If the causeFire() method was in the iPhone 4 then Samsung are a full 3 generations behind with the Note 7!
That is truly courageous!
Perhaps the Queen could step in to re-educate this twit ... while she signs a law to make the sun to stop shining or 8pm to follow 10am
Umm... 8pm does follow 10am. It follows it 10 hours later.
Maybe try 8pm to happen within 5 minutes of 10am or something.
Most executives will fail at "plug in the monitor"
Only because they are still trying to find the Monitor Fluid that someone told them was causing the problem.
