Parents showing responsibility? How can we expect this if their kids don't... er... hmm.
I was going to deride this thing as a pointless combination like a refrigerator/toaster kind of combo. When I saw the phone on the stand I looked at my own monitor. Realized my phone is sitting there with a cable plugged in...
Depends on the range, if I have to stick it right up under the monitor I'd rather just have a wire keeping the phone out of my way.
That is the problem. Licensing should just be compliance, not barrier of entry.
And updated to eliminate unsafe methods to keep the licensed operating safely.
If you take away the cars, Uber no longer has anything to sell. If you take away the online app, they could switch to some other channel and continue.
Sounds like it is not a taxi company if you can take away their taxis (cars) away and they can do something else. At least that's the way I read it.
So we need a programmer for laws. I shall call this profession
We killed them all in the revolution...

That would require the level of intelligence to... I don't know... find a job in an environment where robots are common?
While I generally agree, what happens when the only jobs left are those that require creativity or critical thinking. There's a lot of people out there who can't do anything more complicated than repeating a few simple tasks over and over again. These jobs are going to be replace by robots. When the only jobs left are jobs that require high levels of thought, there's going to be a lot of people who simply can't hold down a job. I don't think that changing the way we educate people or making education free or anything else is going to be able to change the fact that some people don't have the cognitive ability to do the high level jobs that robots won't be able to do.
I bet people once asked what would happen when all the remaining jobs required the workers to be literate.

I like this solution. I would quickly become one of the new unemployed.
Ah, but then you would find that you don't have enough money to do much. So perhaps you'd work part-time, so that you had enough money to do more than sit around reading old funny papers. But maybe you'd only work a few hours a week, because you'd find that having pocket money is enough to find happiness if you're freed from having to go through a crushing and repetitive cycle of senselessness to earn money for The Man(tm).
So how much money is enough to survive but not do much?
Life is a healthy respect for mother nature laced with greed.
