would be nice not to carry paper work, but it's just a card in my wallet, not a big deal. seems like you'd really just hate to live in the USA and everything else follows from that...rather than vice versa.
You don't have to have any paperwork on you in the USA. You can go anywhere without paperwork. But if you are driving, you need proof of the right to drive. Reg number of the car has nothing to do with a license. What if it's not your car? What if it's a rental. Both common situations here in the USA.
Agreed. However, the tech is rapidly maturing. There are several companies that offer 3rd party solutions for autonomous cars (i.e. MobileEye). They don't have to reinvent the wheel. They just need to get in on the ramp up so that when these stuff hits big time in the next 5 yrs they are well positioned to take care of it.
Alternatively, here are some interesting use cases...
1) Mixed fleet of autonomous and driven cars. Autonomy mode is only used to "bring" the car to you, but you must drive it to your destination. Then autonomy mode is used to "bring" the car to the next customer. It's like an instant, on demand, just for as long as you need it, rental car.
2) Limit autonomous rides to major routes along major roadways. These roadways will be well mapped out. Will be under constant surveillance for changes that could affect the autonomy. Possibly will have beacons installed along the way for hyper accurate position triangulation without the phase errors that GPS has.
They burned a man alive who was sent there to burn them alive. Or explode them. And to do the same to their women and children that were nearby. Almost certainly he had the blood of their people on his hands already. What does this have to do with diplomacy?
It's war. We declared war on them and sent people to kill them. And we're not just killing their fighters. We're also killing their women and children and supporters. Is it surprising that they would publicly kill a pilot who crashes while on a mission to explode and burn to death more of them from the air? Of course not. Should we be outraged? Sure.
There are many capable countries in the ME that could deal with ISIS if they needed to. But they don't need to because the USA will go and do it for them. A better strategy in all this would have been to help the locals organize against ISIS. Really ISiS was a local movement not threatening the West directly until the West started bombing them.
I would imagine there's just an asshole meter associated with a client. Drivers can still pick them up, but some won't. It's supply and demand with a new analytic on the demand side. I would imagine that anyone violent or abusive would get banned altogether so we're not talking about people that pose an actual danger to drivers...just assholes.
Pretty much. All across the nation, kids are discouraged from thinking for themselves, questioning the status quo, questioning authority, exploring certain topics, etc. Then you take a place like backwoods Texas with knuckle dragging Christians who dispute evolution and value magical beings over actual observations and things only get worse.
it's not imaginary witchcraft that is the problem. I hear belief in Jesus, his witchcraft, and that of his people is encouraged. Just not Lord of the Rings witchcraft.
It's part of the "teaching incompetence and government absurdity" in the classroom program. Best the kids learn early that rational thought and reason does not exist if the words threat, school, sex, gay, religion, race, and more are used in a sentence.
I hate it when people say the iPhone costs $200. I obviously does not. It costs between $650 and $1,050 depending on model. The phone company will let you put $200 down if you agree to finance the rest through them for 2 yrs.
When I leased my car for $0 down, my car was not free. I have 2 yrs of payments to make on it.
It's important news that matters for nerds...because real nerds don't like seeing delusional whack jobs (i.e. Christians) in positions of power fighting science and progress. Having an Atheist is historic like having a historically persecuted minority in a position of power.
Exactly my point. They are only trying to make money for themselves, and if exploiting a disaster make them more money, they will do that. Yet here we have people (like the OP) trying to claim that they are 'ensuring there are enough drivers'. Bullshit
No, he's claiming that capitalism...i.e. supply and demand...will ensure enough drivers as long as the sky is the limit on the rates that can be offered or charged. Putting a cap on rates will prevent that. His point has nothing to do with helping people...beyond the extent to which allowing supply and demand to take its natural course will help people meet their needs.

a worse case scenario of x4 times worse performance...and/or battery life if working on a mobile.

Well, looks like you might get charged for not having your license.
I thought you were holding it out for me to take...whoops...I'll bring it back to you in a few minutes.

I'm wondering if this article is a joke. a troll. a nudge towards crazy.
Is open source email management really the next big challenge? If Mozilla targeted that they'd lose their funding in 3, 2, 1...
Thought they'd say something like data privacy, data portability, online anonymity, etc.

Huh? Hope your comment is sarcasm. If not, you might want to do a little common sense 101 research.

Only a legitimate Apple TV should be considered here.
how about...Craters Explode As NASA's Dawn Probe Approaches Ceres
hmmm....so profound...your argument is well constructed.
just put a bunch of porn on your back seats.
No such thing as "too Jewish"...it just keeps getting better!

Neither is Jesus!

why not put a 1.4 inch disk a mile up? so much cheaper!
