Why would I eat something like that? Non-ripe bananas I can really do without.

Lots of mountains to move for that

Soon Americans won't have to work!

It does not. You just show how completely clueless you are about engineering.

The noise is a HUGE problem!

HFT deals with buying and selling things whose price changes by the millisecond. Retail doesn't operate like that. Their stock is already purchased, so cost doesn't fluctuate. They need to advertise prices, so those can't change very quickly. People check online for prices before going into the store. They check circulars and word-of-mouth. And they complain.

Now, I'm sure there are MBAs out there who think changing the prices throughout the day would be a brilliant idea, but I've worked retail. It would be a nightmare.

More positively than unregulated capitalism. More negatively than other parts of the world with far more heavy regulations.

Only if you want to take the discussion off topic. No you don't have socialism when it comes to your insurance system.

How many of your friends are in the news? The fact that there is a specific law about this with specific punishments should tell you that just because something isn't seen by you personally doesn't mean it doesn't happen. There's a Texas passed a law due to this, and the law was signed into power with the blood of children.

Also it's a false comparison. I bet you know out of your extended group of people at least one person who has been a cause of an accident, maybe even someone who has hit a person. The schoolbus overtaking rule is an "idiots rule", just like boomgates at a level crossing are "idiot gates". Both exist to resolve an issue created by imperfect driving in the first place (the first being fast passing combined with slow reaction time, the second being idiots who ignore the blinking lights). The risks applied to automated systems aren't the same. That's not a reason to say that Waymo shouldn't follow the laws, but it is a case to say that the laws may not need to be equal for both systems (up next: let's talk about stop signs and why cyclists are legally allowed to not stop at them in many jurisdictions, and why it's a good idea in general to not consider all vehicles as equal.).

Pay so much in property taxes that nobody else has to.

That is absolutely false. Firstly, prices are almost universally changed during business hours. You can probably walk down the isle of your local supermarket and find someone with a price / tag labelling machine adjusting one *right now* if you bothered to look.

The register issue is handled quite simply: you keep the lowest of the two prices at checkout and you have zero legal liability. There is no paperwork involved.

I can tell you've never worked retail before. I agree with the rest of your point: this is stuff that was already happening. But the idea that somehow this only happened at night without customers present or that someone is opening themselves to massive fines is just plain absurd.

Only in a general sense. Prices are constantly adjusted. Go to your local store you'll probably find someone *right now* with a price sticker machine. It would take an employee all of 10 minutes to do the entire drinks section, and you can predict a heatwave days in advance. The reality is price adjustments (e.g. during sales) are a constant event for a retail business and the whole digital price tag thing is just a general cost reduction scheme, not some nefarious idea to invent new capitalistic ways to fuck you over.

Leftist bias in media, is blatantly demonstrated when you find all of left-leaning media across a dozen channels suddenly using and abusing the word/phrase du jour in the endless Us. vs Them political game.

And I do mean that literally. There are countless examples of them doing this. When the talking heads literally cannot speak individually and freely, it's telling as to who the real puppets are. It's also quite telling as to who holds the capacity of individual thought.

Groupthink, is what brought the left to its knees.

Amazing milestone aside, the choice of wording here remains spot on. The capabilities of the system has nothing to do with the testing regime. The fact that they had an abundance of caution and focused on other things first has nothing to do with this achievement. They reached orbit. All the other things alone are only relevant if they were building a commercial air-liner.

Reaching orbit is a milestone for a space fairing vehicle, and one that they just reached. Kudos to the team, but they don't need you making excuses for them.

What in the hell are you rambling on about when I refer to a movie about Government censorship and manipulation based in the 1960s? The hell does "Fox News" arguments have to do with that? Fox News as a company didn't even exist until the 1990s.

And leftist media lost their grip on delusional manipulation and control within the last 5 years. As their ratings and show cancellations proudly confirm.

Watch the movie. Educate yourself before commenting. The point being made, is encapsulated within the weapon US Government abuses every day. ALL media, is nothing more than a Weapon of Mass Distraction.

Too hot, too humid, too hilly and junglely. I'd look at Minnesota or the Dakotas.
