Typical classist move is to try to take private ownership of public property, we've seen this time and time again, it's business as usual, steal from and cheat those who create good things so entitled people can continue their free ride at our expense. None of these massive transnational corporations are ethical, there desperately needs to be legal reforms so the people in charge are held accountable for their decisions and an end to limited liability for shareholders. Otherwise this systemic corruption will soon collapse our economies once again. Of course, I'd bet they rich can't change for the better so I prepare for the worst.

I wonder how those in power are going to implement ethical blinders.

Well, I'll grant that the marketing for that will certainly have something to do with a cat box...

Given the rate of "progress" with QC doing prime factorization of arbitrary compound numbers, not only will I be dead by then, everyone who will have known me in my life will be dead. And if you add the criterion that QC must be cheap enough to make it worthwhile to crack my secret messages, there's a fair chance that everyone who would have known anyone who knew me in life in life will also be dead by then.

And no, I do not believe in doomsday prophesies.

Meanwiile, without any form of cheating, a 6th grader will be a lot faster than a quantum computer, and they'll do it for rewards that cost way less than the operating cost of the QC.

Practical quantum prime factorization is all the way up to (some) 2 digit numbers and it only took 20 years. Lately, scaling of quantum computers seems to have hit a wall. MS's meetoo quantum chip turned out to be a mock-up, Google's imminant announcement of the largest QC yet is now a year overdue and silence from the hype machine is ominous.

So I guess this is Aptiv trying to cash in (or perhaps cash out) before the bust.

lol your attitude speaks volumes about you

I pity you

What about LONG term income and price changes?

Wages haven't kept up with inflation for decades. Various social norms pressuring people to have kids have been eroding the whole time due to the simple impracticality of it.

OK, open the hanger, here comes the airplaaaaaane!>/p>

His name is Paul Yura. I'm pretty sure Nick Bannon is not rsilvergun IRL.

Now finish those nummy strained peas.

Could this be due to stress and cortisol reduction caused by the drugs effects? Not unlikely, right?

It's right here in the comments.

The person who would have coordinated the alert with local authorities is gone. His position has not been filled because a lateral move would make the new guy "probationary" (and we know what happens to those under Trump).

But in this particular case, with the chain of cause to effect well established, the names of each of those kids should be tattooed on his face in blood red ink, mirror imaged so he can be reminded every morning when he gets up.

The alerts are supposed to be localized to the area where they can do some good. When I get an alert about something on the other side of the state at 3 A.M. It has missed the mark, unless that ever so rare silver or possibly white Honda drives through my bedroom window (which can't happen for at least 3 hours given how far away it is), there's zero chance I will see it.

Now, if they displayed the alert on the signs over the interstate, they would better target people who might actually see it.

ethical people are not easily swayed by lies, nor do ethical people act unethically in any regard

me, what I see are corrupt classist and unethical people trying desperately to justify their greed, irresponsibility and selfishness

if you were rational, you'd realize that unethical actions lead to harm and injustice

it's irrational to be an unethical person but hey, if people want to be an evil assholes who are wrecking everything for everybody, they shouldn't be surprised when people call them out for being evil assholes

just saying

Let me get this straight: A little desktop sized cutesy robot that looks like a crippled Wall-E, doesn't have arms and can't even move besided nodding it's head in 4 directions is going to "disrupt the AI robot industry"? Nonsense.

LOL! I know Fisher-Technik robot arms from the freakin' 1980ies that were driven by a C64 homecomputer that are more useful than this thing.
