OK,so who told you too!Lets dismiss miss Daryl Hannah.Somehow u knew the Keystone XL pipeline (north segment) was the greatest thing on earth!Can u elaborate on this info?why would u or i support it?Sometimes us citizens are ill informed.(im gonna guess a pipeline in canada with suspect investment)Seriously,inform me about Keystone XL pipeline (north segment)
To some this is our livelyhood,and as much as i respect many on 'slashdot' I would hope u wouldnt disrespect others not like u,ive driven trucks and worked at a number of mining sites,and theres still a # of friends who call me a geek
Why even comment.Guys with big trucks is like decades old joke.We were talking about computer controlled "autonomous" trucks in mining and perhaps other operations.I could care less if a guy drives a hummer,a prius,or a yugo!quit being a tard!
"railway or conveyor system" i agree 100%! The the entire idea of having a autonomous vehicle is the fact that it didn't change direction or mode pretty much in an instant. There is no way they can program fast enough for a large mining site, logging operation, construction anything! it's just geeks trying to prove they can do something but it really work in a fast-paced operation
I really don't think it makes much sense. The entire idea of an autonomous haul truck is that it can change immediately to a different location, different material, loaded a different way. And if you've ever worked on a large mining site or construction that can happen multiple times in a single shift. Now I would think some sort of rail or ore car system would work in certain situations, but I can't imagine even with a team of genius computer programmers, the they could program these trucks as if they had a driver. Point a to point B okay, but there is no way they could program fast enough to the ever changing situations that a haul truck encounters every day.

I apologize for my voice recognition prog.fill in the blanks I think you can still get my drift.
