Can it drive from LA to New York without a human driver?
Can it drive from LA to New York without a human driver?
Or... just fund it from the general tax fund like everyone else does.
How much could a banana cost, $10?
Only if you decide to work 75% more time than you are being paid for, for some reason. What the hell.
Is there a right way?
Yes, we do it in Europe, you can get biometric ID or passports and it's fine. Nobody's getting put into FEMA death camps because their iris scans or anything like that.
I suspect they made that statement to remind Europe that they are ONLY 7% of revenue and Apple would rather burn some bridges than relinquish control.
Your cynicism assumes Apple lies, but my cynicism assumes Apple will use its money to exert power.
Which seems fine by me. Just shut down the app store.
Parallelization is almost impossible in C++?
Interesting.

When conservatives realize that Carlin was actually a liberal...
Imagine how mad they'll be if they ever find out what the Rage Against The Machine lyrics are about
That's the first time they have to take the whole thing down for at least 4 months so I don't see how it's "business as usual".
Whether or not it's any kind of failure I think would depend on what they find out.
The idea that unless you live in a giant metropolis like New York City that you can't possibly have good public transportation is simply not true.
It's not that you can't possibly have good PT, it's that you don't. Because American cities are shit at it because they don't want to be good. I'm sure there are exceptions like your wonderful town but, like, it's pretty obvious.
A culture and reward system of climate/DEI does not provide that same pushback.
Boeing doesn't have a climate/DEI culture, they have a "shareholders need money" culture.
The same NYT that pushed the falsified Steele Dossier ("Russian collusion") for months after it had been invalidated and hid the Hunter Biden laptop story on the eve of the election - that NYT?
Laughable, sir. Laughable.
It hasn't been invalidated.
The piss tape is real.
If all you care about is the revenue, who to send the invoice to would certainly seem like a solution. Meanwhile, traffic laws are about public safety, how should that work?
If someone else was driving they can rat them out. If it's a driverless car, then the owner is obviously responsible and should pay the fine..
I will repeat: NYC and SF housing are both absurdly out of control directly attributable to government interference in the normal functioning of the market place. And the proposed solution in both cases is even more interference. Yay, that'll work.
Don't repeat it, show some research that actually supports your claim.
