That doesn't make it competitive. I'm from rural Illinois which is basically the same animal as rural Indiana and the same service at the same price is not competitive. In a place where the quality of internet service is third world and $30,000-$50,000 makes you one of the distinguished high earning professionals in the surrounding 100 mile radius paying what you'd pay in LA is highway robbery.
You mean like when Alexa learns how to understand a new speaker? Oh right, she does that on the fly. AI is not clever programming to appear smart anymore, AI are shifting and self-programming networks that learn abstract patterns more or less the same way the brain works.
Yes and no. We have a baby so reviewed milk prices not too far back (3-4 months). Anywhere from $2-3 gallon for the non-organic was the norm. If anything the drop is more extreme.
I hope the meta-moderators correct this. I'd support off-topic of the parent and GP but the parent replied rationally while the GP was doing the trolling.
The issue is cities tapping those lines. Unlike sewer lines, the internet carries speech and corruption within community level law enforcement is quite common. In my home town the police and their friends would literally drag race around the town square at 3am.
Last I checked it is essentially impossible to run lines through public and private properties, through towns, across rivers, etc without being granted permission by state/county/city government and doing is disruptive so the party they allow to do it has what amounts to a government granted monopoly.
Education is knowing that tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is knowing not to put on in a fruit salad again. Intelligence is having the ability to anticipate putting one in a fruit salad wouldn't be a good plan then trying it anyway.
Shows as $5.68/gal here in Dallas. The non-organic is $1.49 but it expires in a week or less whereas this has an expiration date over a month out. Milk you'd want to give a human like Fairlife is more.
"Cars need to have their safety and guidance systems onboard and not rely on a possibly broken or misconfigured signal from outside the vehicle."
Why not have both? AI learns after all, so long as there are people driving through that space when the signal is working your car will have gained what their car learned from that experience, even if you are approaching it for the first time with a down signal. It isn't as if Aircraft don't rely on external signals.
"You don't get off the hook for causing an accident just because the traffic lights were not working."
No, you don't get off the hook when using your cell phone or drinking either but people do. What I have noticed with self driving vehicles is people seem to expect them to perform flawlessly or be deemed unsafe even though thousands of human lives are lost due to how flawed human drivers are each year. If the self driving cars result in the same or fewer casualties (without any need to fail in the same places the humans do) they are a success.
"With unlimited possibilities and having to contend with flawed human drivers, the AI will need to be adaptable."
The AI does need to get better, I'm not disputing that at all. I'm just suggesting there are ways to improve some of these situations and in the case of traffic light signaling it's been shown that automating the humans speed through the lights to avoid full stops would be much more efficient anyway.
My previous comment aside, I actually see the concept working for personal flying vehicles before cars. You can just build the infrastructure and interconnection much more easily. Most of what makes piloting difficult for humans is trivial for traditional algorithms and the road conditions and human signaling infrastructure along with complex maze of state and city codes don't exist and or are less of an obstacle because the FAA can preempt them. The exceptions already transmit signals on RF.
"I guess there is some good to the limited design.
Will AI be able to be more adaptive than humans? Probably, some day."
Humans fail to adapt to situations like that on a daily basis. Hell humans fail to adapt to curbs on a daily basis. But the real answer might involve using smarter solutions to many of these problems. Self driving cars add loads of benefits and potential for safety. Why require massive processing power when the lights could simply send a simple RF signal alongside the visual indicator they send now? Same thing with safety cones and a small adjustment to the construction worker situation. It isn't that hard to set up a few virtual walls for a roomba, it isn't any harder to update ad-hoc road signaling conditions. Besides, someone did simulations not too far back showing that pretty much any traffic light would be much more efficient and handled more traffic if cars were guided in at slow speeds which avoided complete stops.
Yes, but every Waymo van will also stop having trouble when the issue is resolved as well. The humans aren't getting any better. For myself, I've never even heard of metered lights to control pacing other than a yellow to indicate hazard or slow.
I wouldn't. Plastic guns blow up after a shot or two. This entire issue is preposterous except for the Constitutional violations being committed. These plans are basically useless at present unless you can stir up a bunch of fear and hysteria and use it to further erode the Constitution.
There have been many welfare queens who've invented new cleaning technology, baby tending ideas, and if nothing else contributed just by voting with the money they spent. Cleetus' kind have invented a great deal of technology, the wright brothers would fall into this category, and I'm not even sure how you begin to claim plumbers have contributed nothing... unless you don't want to count plumbing.
There are certainly individuals among the lower classes who are drags on society and but then there are no shortage among the upper classes who are drags on society as well. Wealth does follow merit... in the first generation. But passing that wealth to their children has no more merit than it did when the roman emperors began passing their authority to their offspring.
Cancel welfare, drop all plans for UBI, simply take their wealth (since everyone who protects it, holds it, and builds the mechnisms which secure it is among the lower and middle classes) then since everyone of consequence to the operation of our corporations is among the lower and middle classes, exile the weathy to prove their merit in isolation and poverty on Antarctica. Let us see how they fare.
No, I made a proposal above for splitting the stock of publicly traded companies with the newly generated shares going into a trust to fund UBI. The alternative isn't 0, the alternative is the 99.9% take all the wealth and divide it as they see fit.
It's up to the BATFE to prove intent in court and before that it is up to you to convince the agent not to charge you in the first place because it is at their discretion. Just like cops busting people for drugs the usual rule of thumb they go by is quantity.
"If you start off intending to make a bunch to sell/give away, you are going to have problems"
This is it exactly. I am not a lawyer but I have read these laws in some detail and no regulation I found actually barred selling or gifting the firearm subsequently the regulation is on manufacturing with that intent. According to anything I ever came across there is nothing wrong with selling the gun later if you decide you don't want it anymore as long as that wasn't the plan from the start. The feds have discretion on whether or not they believe you must as the IRS does with regard to many tax violations and any ATF agent I ever spoke to said they mostly look at quantity. This is similar to the police using the quantity of a drug in your possession as the basis for intent to sell.
If you make an AR-15 that is probably fine, if you make 10 AR-15's you might be in trouble and if you did make 10 you better have a huge family living with you (in the same household could be reasonably sold as personal) or be able to explain how they are different and what lead to making 10. Either they buy it or don't, it's at their discretion. If you've made six and sold five because well, you just keep deciding you want to build a newer and cooler one and need the funds back from the last they are probably less likely to believe you, especially if you sold at a profit.
Yes there is the FFL issue but under Hillary Clinton's revision to the list someone manufacturing (and that includes putting a scope on already existing gun to sell it thanks to rule revisions she pushed) doesn't just need the FFL, they also have to pay $5000 as if their guns were military grade arms for export for a license from an agency that stopped issuing them.
So the idea is to take the people who are working now, earning 60-150k/yr as middle class citizens and when all their jobs disappear we replace it with taxes on those who have ended up with all the wealth, knowledge, invention, and processes the middle and lower classes have almost exclusively generated over the past couple hundred years set at a rate that fixes them at the federal poverty line?
"As for your funding proposal, I agree with the concept of having what amounts to a sovereign wealth fund, but I'd prefer to fund it with a 1% or so income tax."
Not a chance, it should be funded with consideration of ALL the wealth both in money, assets, information, and invention that the lower and middle classes have created and along with previous generations thereof. Most importantly, that means a future that follows and grows along with the corporate machines they've built. There can be no escape route where the wealthy pull a buffet and dodge liquidating their wealth and continue to grow it in the vast underdeveloped regions of the world, escaping to the few extraordinarily well developed cities they've built there and leave the giants whose backs they've walked on behind.

There wouldn't be any ISPs in these areas in a market free of regulation.

I fail to see how this is even remotely possible. In the past decade milk has gone from $2/gal to $6+/gal.

This actually violates both the first and second amendment.
