Is demand for my product expanding at the same time as the amount of product I can supply? If not, then keeping my existing workforce is going to result in a whole bunch of excess inventory that will need to be warehoused.
So, I would fire half of them at first, and then hire them back again when I have a need to be able to produce more.
Or, you know, just upgrade the robots to version 2.0
Although it's been a bit of a quiet decade... The last release was version 5.666, in 2013, but the bits I use it for still work just as good as ever.
According to DJ Egg, who appears to be the only developer left, the latest public beta appears to be stuck in the dread Swamp of Legaldepts
MilkDrop is still the best visualiser, bar none, and the LineIn source still works perfectly.
It runs on a laptop plugged into a projector that paints the ceiling at our band's gigs with a 1920x1080 screen at 60fps. It is frequently admired and commented on.
In case it helps you understand what is going on here, the first time the ThrustSSC moved under its own, it hit a whole 70 miles an hour! And that was using technologies that have been around for over 40 years.
Now you want to do it with an entirely brand new technology. You want them go straight to 310 KM/h, do you?

You've almost got it right. you just need to add something along the lines of;
And, just because I consider you one of my really special friends, I've got this really cool little tool tcpdump running on it and hey! Is that your IP address? Huh. I wonder what other those kooky nuts over at/b/ will make of that?...Oh, he hung up.

I think someone might have something to say about that.
That's the hard drive he was using two years ago?
How long has it been since you could even buy a hard drive with an IDE interface?
And if your reflexes aren't up to World of Warships, try Naval Action for really slow turning mechanics.

I'm guessing some sort of parchment-based cosplay figures highly in your fantasies.

Would that be the Gibson Guitars with the 13 thousand square metre factory in downtown Memphis, Tennesee?
The very same Gibson guitar foundation that was raided found to have used illegally logged Madagascan Ebony?

You're not one of the next billion.
The reason why you're not one of the next billion was delininated in the article, but it appears you failed to grok that bit.
Maybe you are one of the next billion, after all.
Not to mention that a lot of them wouldn't even fit down some of those little country lanes
You know, with some perfectly harmless Bacillus globigii, or Serratia marcescens.
Or whatever the current iterations of those two completely harmless bioweapons are.

EXACTLY: I don't think that word means what you appear to think it means.
Yeah, right up until the moment they find out that they've signed up to get paid to find the next surprise "Two Kids One Hammer" video instead.
Oh, great. Yeah, thanks. Now I have to go and try to get Crimson Skies working in wine again...
