How much do I get to sue for when one of these runs into me?
Seriously though, with enough sensors to not be a safety hazard, and an expensive lithium battery, these thing will become prized collectibles to hackers everywhere.
Sign up for any dating website and read the women's profiles. A VERY large percentage will have something along the lines of a request for a man "who takes care of himself", "is responsible" or "handles his business". There are many variations on the theme, but they all translate to has a good job and makes good money. The most direct is the claim "There are two things the lady should never touch. The door handle or the bill for dinner."
If you play the game by 'casually' indicating that you have money to burn, you get lots of attention. It is an interesting experiment to run. Create two profiles. Use the same pictures, but change the amount of income you claim. Note the difference in the number of responses.
All the gnashing of teeth about toxic masculinity are idiotic, because most of it is driven by WOMEN!!
The denizens of "Selfie Land" are going to band together to create petitions. What could possibly go wrong there? After all, are they not the smartest, brightest, and most engaged people we have?
Corporate media getting scared, huh? They can no longer control the message. They can't control the horizontal. They can't control the vertical. Eventually, the narrative they want to feed you will be exposed.
Verizon is like every gym out there. They want to sign you up, and tell you how great their equipment is in order to do it, but they'd really prefer you not actually use it so that they can sell it to even more users.
Unless there is a good reason otherwise, people should be free to move and live where they want.
Agreed. In this case, the good reason is the American/European social safety net. Once you put that in place, someone moving from a poor country to try their hand at the American Dream is not a zero cost to me. They must stop swinging, because my nose is occupying the space.
And immigrants do "steal jobs". I worked with a part time tobacco farmer. He bragged about hiring Latinos, because they would work for practically nothing and were happy to live in a dilapidated shed he had on the property. He couldn't get Americans to ignore minimum wage laws to work all day in the NC heat and humidity, so those American jobs went to illegal immigrants.
The corporations don't give a shit about humans, or the environment, or anything else but the bottom line.
Corporations don't care about the bottom lines, either. They can't, because corps are a legal fiction, not people. The reason this is important is because if you're going to attack something, you have to make sure you take good aim.
I would agree that corporate LEADERS don't give a shit about humans (at least not those in their immediate vicinity), or the environment, or anything else but the bottom line. But, then again, that doesn't make corporate leaders unique, does it?
How did they point a structure that rests on a planet with a wobbly rotation that circulates in an elliptical orbit around a moving star at ANYTHING in the universe?
If I'm spinning on a merry-go-round that's on moving railroad car, my rifle laying on the floor is not aiming at a passing deer if the muzzle happens to cross the general direction of the animals location.
Getting something to that speed really isn't problematic so long as you can keep pushing it.
What becomes problematic is keeping the "something" together at that speed. Impacts with even the tiniest grain of dust, or even individual atoms become problematic at that speed.
What you would need is a giant magnetic shield to direct particles around the ship. Of course, if the shield could capture, then accelerate even a diminishingly small portion of that dust in the right direction, it would provide a constant acceleration.
I'd pay dearly to coat the inside of my airplane's carb, and just about every pilot I know would two. Carb ice is a big deal for general aviation aircraft, and many people are killed by it every year.
The first is the spin that the Times put on it in the first few paragraphs of their article. Competent investigators found evidence then started an investigation.
The second is the reality pointed out in about the ninth or so paragraph of their article. The FBI wanted to correct what they felt was a mistake by the American people, and began to work on a soft coupe, by launching an investigation of a duly elected President on the most flimsy and spurious of evidence combined with already debunked and provably false data.
But, don't let the truth get in your way. BTW, Elizabeth Warren proved her case Native ancestry with that DNA test. I'm old enough to remember when they tried putting that spin on it.
Relevant/highlighted parts reveal that the author has never worked on large data projects. What is called out is regularly dealt with as a matter of course in said projects.
As expected, the article leads off by listing oil companies. How are they responsible for the emissions? It's like saying that I'm responsible for your wife's murder, because you bought a screw driver at my hardware store. The people responsible for the emissions are the ones using the energy produced from the companies' products. That would be YOU, flink.
Except when used against someone that actually calls for using the worst solutions used by Hitler. The GP did propose the use of gas chambers, after all.

There is a limit to the number of ways you can repeat a warble of "oh-oh-oh" before even the most mindless teenager gives up.
So, the computer is able to win, because it is optimized for counting cards, with "bluffing ratio" being one of the cards.
If war strategy is about being able to keep track of thousands of small details and their relative impacts, AI like this would be useful.

How about "decreased network usage"?

yes. Flying cars.

So should Netflix execs be jailed for starting that whole birdcage thing?
More important would be a coating for the inside of the carb. The ice there kills more people than ice on the wings.
I can almost guarantee that your wrong.

There's two takes on that.
The first is the spin that the Times put on it in the first few paragraphs of their article. Competent investigators found evidence then started an investigation.
The second is the reality pointed out in about the ninth or so paragraph of their article.

You blame the GOP, because you're an idiot.
We have also seen the Dem plan. Give all the wealth to the politicians through confiscatory taxation levels, destroying the economy's base.
My home.
Says the guy that never drove a truck for a living in America.
A) You will be in the sleeper while the other driver takes over for the other 10.
B) They are called "lie" books for a reason. There are several ways to fake it out and get more than 10 hours driving in per day.
C) Recharging a battery that can pull 80tons through mountainous terrain for 10 hours is going to be one major feat of engineering.
6. Escalating taxes on fossil fools for transportation use. The aim should be to phase them out for ground transport within 20 years, worldwide.
Some guys wearing yellow vests will show up to your door in a few minutes.
Maybe the author was using the royal "We"?
Except, there wasn't a drop in rainfall...
