And that was the test, to see if a computer could mimic a women as often as a man can mimic a women.
The computer has to do as well as a typical man, not as well as a typical women at being a women.

This has Little to do with the cabs themselves. This is about the Airports.
Airports are legally "private" property (even though they are run by the city). All airports in the US at least have a long standing history of charging cabs and limo services for picking up, dropping off customers. Its a simple fact that if you run a private car company you have to pay the airport, period, full stop. The airports in turn will and have charged people with "illegal trespassing" for not paying.
Many private car companies nowadays accept Uber Black and they do pay the airports their share. UberX drivers being "regular people" don't know to pay the airport, and don't have the appropriate tags/markings for the airport to know what they are. Uber has been trying to work out a solution, but it requires privately negociation between Uber and each and every airport in the country. A LONG and costly operation. California, one of the prime places where the airports have been treating UberX drivers as trespassers is making this as "safety regulation". Ultimately I guess it is a safety issue, as its creating a physical confrontation between drivers and the security officers attempting to ticket them.
Why? He will make licensing fees from each car sold. AND he can charge per KW for other cars to plug into their quick charging ports.
Little known fact, for the baseline Tesla S (the one that cost 69k), it doesn't come with free supercharging capability, but its available as an option as purchase for $2000 (its also available as a after purchase option, but probably cost more). The higher models come with supercharging standard.
Weither they sell access to their stations are $2,000 up-front of if they meter it, I don't know. I'd guess they would meter it.
Yeah, we aren't talking about strapping an infant into the car and having it go somewhere (yeah that would be kinda cool, but we are far, far away from that, maybe once we trust robots as nannies). But no reason a 12 year old shouldn't be able to, with adult permission, ride an autonomous vehicle.
A lot of Oculus tech is actually in its software. It uses predictive head tracking to make the output much more seamless to the user.

I decided to look into it a little bit more.

Apparently the creative cloud is offline applications that while they use online functions they do work offline for 30 days of non conductivity.
Still stupid.
So what happens when they no longer sell their products and you have no choice but to have the Creative Cloud. Should the entire design industry shut down when Adobe has an issue?
We can't necessarily make an artificial version cheaper than we could simply pay people to donate. We can't clone blood cells in a vat yet, and probably not any time soon.
And in reality this is a lot to do with modern paint itself. 20 years ago your car would have rusted out very fast because you never cleaned it.
Donate the hardware or sell it, sure. But wasting thousands of man hours in order to "save the environment" is wasteful ecologically in the long run because is leads to greater energy, paper, and food waste in the long run.
Agreed, they should keep whatever MSWord licenses they are currently running. There is almost no need to upgrade Office unless you need more than the maximum Excel row count.
Honestly, this is the solution. Unless you and your coworkers are working for free, the man hours you will waste on transitioning and people having issues with the new machines, be it not knowing the file system or the differences between MS Word and LibreOffice. You should run the numbers and find out.
The machines you need, over their projected lives of 4 years cost $X per employee per day. That $X is likely less than 30 minutes. Is it likely that the new systems will cost you more than the same amount of man-hours in conversion and support?
Yeah, but they will work perfectly fine for board game pieces, art pieces, simple kid toys, cups, plates.. Yeah, that's about it
But the technology is advancing, give it a few years and you'll be able to create most home tools, Legos, and other everyday objects.
Another big issue is that these were 12 top of the line violins. Its pretty impressive honestly to say that violins that hundreds of years old can sound identical to 12 top of the line modern violins. No other 300 year old instrument is likely to sound as good as a modern top of the line version.
It allows you to build and upgrade your phone a piece at a time.
I think the biggest draw for me would be "replace your screen after you drop it". Feature
Always look over your shoulder because everyone is watching and plotting against you.
