No kidding here at all, I want this for my car or motorcycle. I want 100 foot bubble of no people talking or texting when I am on the highway ! ( +/- 10 Ft )
If cab drivers are going to riot in the street and inflict personal harm and property damage, who the hell thinks an autonomous car has a snowballs chance in hell ?
Considering the great number of regular variables in our ocean it's not acceptable to state the water was higher or not. To claim it is because of 'global warming' is a fine collection of bovine excrement.
Average water levels higher? Try the millions of tonnage of displacement on our oceans by shipping, cruise ships and the like. Maybe. localized Gravitational anomalies perhaps ( Hint: our '1G' is an average that varies, it's not absolute. )
There is so much about our earth we don't know. Trying to say an ocean is a few inches higher is laughable at best. You can measure the ocean anytime you want and only measure during your high tides or whatever. It's 'Confirmation Bias' at it's worst. We don't know how the Earth works well enough, and all this green crap could actually be making it worse.
The whole concept of carbon credits is tantamount to profiteering, scaremongering and a form of terrorism all it's own.
I only hope some day all the chicken littles that bought into this shceme will come to their senses and formal charges are brought against the perpetrators for crimes against humanity.
In respect to this argument, the article posted by OP has it dead on, and you are dead wrong.
Sandy did more damage because people build their houses and boardwalks out of wood on sand bars and low lying coastal areas. The 'raised sea-level' was called 'storm surge', which depending on the tide, can be significantly higher or lower when it makes landfall. Factors like the slope of the seabed coming to the shore play a role also.
The chicken-littles of the 'scientific' community are butt-hurt because they had one of their doom-rattles taken from them.
Except the number of Hurricanes actually HITTING the U.S. has dwindled significantly in the last couple years. The one or two that do get through hit in more sensitive areas not prepared for it.
Every year the NOAA has pronounced a more severe storm season that's whimpered despite naming storms they wouldn't have even considered 10 years ago. I know, because I have been watching.

Nun-Soup. ;)
I am not ok with a fully autonomous death.
This argument is akin to the law of every post eventually including Hitler in some fo... Oh crap I just did it...
Uhg,
Fair enough. I drop my bid for a Cell-free bubble in favor of an EMP burst from 200 miles up. Lets just go back to castles and fiefdoms.

Yea same here.
If you're not on call though I would turn it off on weekends.
You never studied...
The math skills demonstrated in this post demonstrate why America is so far in debt...

This.
Awarding Obama the prize simply for being elected by other people exemplified this.

A 'Certain demographic' was stated without identifying any label.
Automatically identifying hipsters as the demographic mentioned and then going on to defend them voraciously is deliciously ironic.
If you're not tied to on call 24/7 what's wrong with just turning the damn thing off in the evening?
Just fire up any MAC running OSX and wait for it to crash.
One thousand years? No Problem!
Sad to see this moderated to flamebait. Welcome to 2015, the year the world began openly rejecting the truth.
So in addition to taking car parts they get some brand new cameras and a recording device too.
I see your logic there.
In case you missed it this was a hitchbot reference.
4) The untended vehicles that show up get vandalized, stripped, and left a hulk of it's former glory.
The added benefit for the thieves is the cars come when summoned.

Butt-hurt hipster garbage detected !!

Frosty Piss has been a thing for a very, very long time.
This.
So much this.
I have yet to see a legit security firm make any statement on this,.
Considering the person discovered this was 'italian' and called it a 'wopbot' I call Hoax.

You are correct that the use of the Internet, in and of itself will not create qualifications.
But having access to it and properly directed they will be be far better in the IT industry than their peers that didn't have the access.
You can't argue with results.
