Lease or build a stingray and connect to it. It should have deep packet inspection capabilities and catch things before being stripped on Verizon's network.

We are not in a golden age, but a dilithuim age. It is not sluggish and gilded, but moving a warp speed! Where is it moving.. well, sensors are down right now.

On occasion. Typically what it accomplishes as a switch in position of the upper and middle classes, on the backs of the lowest classes, many of whom may get a slight nudge upward in power/money/class to blind them to the truth.

It is because space is BIG. Look at our galaxy, our closest neighbor is what 4.6 lightyears away. Even if you double the amount of stars in the same space, they will interact gravitationally sure, but colliding is like dumping 1000 toothpicks in random places in the oceans and having them collide.

I am simply stating that AZ already makes requirements of sellers. It is cheaper for them to require standard prep and packaging than to create a robot that can handle all situations. Given the amount of product they move, it is not a far stretch to imagine them starting to require it and sellers capitulating.

I have a side business as an Amazon FBA seller. One thing that is often required is item preparation before sending it to an AZ warehouse. This can be bagging, bubble wrapping, etc depending on the item. Amazon also already has frustration free packaging for many items. instead of the impossible clam shell its a simple cardboard sleeve for many items.

Looking at this, I see it as possible in the future for amazon to require manufacturers and sellers to package items in standard size and shape boxes to make it easy for the bots.

What utter nonsense. Yes there is tons of shit in the play store. But I know that Word from microsoft is likely to be malware free if not usable. JoBobs Office clone, not so much. This is the same as if I searched on my PC or walked into brick and mortar.

I will use my experience to tell me what is good or bad. JoBob's office may be malware. However, it may be the best thing since sliced bread, but by increasing barriers to entry, I may never know. Give me the choice please.

If you want someone to spoonfeed you what they think is good for you, that is certainly something you can do. But it is not for me.

NASA has done great things on a limited budget. When you speak of cancelling pie in the sky projects, that is not NASAs doing, that is some administration, or congresscriters pushing for a project, funding it to pass pork around to their corporate constituents or bring 'jobs' to their state, then them or another group cancelling it later because OMG costs so much! When it is a fraction of the defense budget,

Red or blue or green, there is no monopoly on stupidity. Just that the various stupidities differ.

I am as anti-spying as the next guy,but monitoring public postings to prevent cheating is not spying. If you re going to lie, cheat or steal, pass your notes in a private location.

Where was it discredited? There has been much revision of our knowledge of the early atmosphere, but his principles were sound. If you hate science that trys to find the origin of life, go back to church and pray to your diety of choice to prove otherwise. But pleas quit spewing outright lies. Most likely that is a sin in your belief system anyway.

As with any new technology, society and by proxy the government will struggle with its place and rules in said society. There will be oversteps, misses, and oversights.

There will be detractors, luddites, and evangelists, sociopaths and attention whores all vying for a moment in the sun.
