You should borrow Obama's magic weather machine. He keeps it right next to his magic time machine.

Again he already admitted to Congress that when they need the vehicles to do anything more complicated than basic Lane assist driving it's a call center in the Philippines doing the actual driving. I think there is also a center in United States but they weren't clear on when or if it's gets used.

You can look it up on google. It's amazing how different their tune gets when they are under oath to Congress...

This isn't the future this is just more outsourcing and you're going to be on the road with remote control cars pilot it from another country so that they can pay taxi cab drivers even less than they pay them now. And over time it will become increasingly unsafe because they will start using layers of contractors and they won't follow driving laws the way the current batch does because they won't be sitting on limitless amounts of investor cash hoping to reduce wages even more than what Uber pays which is already sub minimum wage

In the dystopian cyberpunk books they never really get this deep into all the nasty little pieces of dystopia that affect daily life it's usually the big cool stuff of course. I'm not enjoying learning about the banal aspects of a techno-feudal corporatocracy

It doesn't get tired. It might get into an altered state. It can definitely get distracted, and get confused about what something even is so long that it's a problem. It doesn't have infinite resources.

Using other types of sensors takes guesswork out of certain decisions. If you can measure density and depth like you can with a mix of sensors which don't even include cameras then you can reliably do AEB which overrides your beloved optical-only system and keeps it from screwing the pooch.

This is true, indeed as you allude there is much that a brain does that you don't want your software to do. But you may not be able to separate all of those things away from the things you do want without going badly awry, either. Also, some of those things may be artifacts of the attached peripherals.

Well assuming you're not just trolling which is assuming a lot then EA is going to take features out of the games you enjoy and then sell them back to you at a premium. The entire design of the games you enjoy will be radically altered to try and push your buttons so that you will part with more money. So even if you have limitless cash because you're Elon Musk (and I could see him wasting his time trolling slashdot after all he's never invented anything so he's got nothing but time) the basic design of the games you enjoy is going to be radically altered to turn them into nasty little Skinner boxes designed to get money out of you...

All of those words have meanings and make sense as he used them. Your lack of comprehension isn't his fault.

What's crazy is imagining that a computer can definitely do what a brain does when we don't even know how the brain does it. MAYBE it can, but we have no proof of that.

You and the other cowards? Who the fuck are you? Nobody.

It isn't something everyone agrees on since so many want to protect Trump from being prosecuted for it. Literally every single Republican voter has signaled that they think it is acceptable to rape children.

Antitrust doesn't just ask is this a monopoly it also asks will this substantially reduce competition or negatively impact consumers.

You don't have to be a monopoly to run afoul of antitrust law properly enforced. Just like how you don't have to murder somebody before you can be brought up on charges for conspiracy.

He can do all the bullshit outrage posts for clicks he wants he has never once spoken out in detail or frankly at all about county level voter suppression or what to do about it. He is yet another useless progressive. Somebody who just wants to go back to the '60s and how much fun they had in protests back then instead of thinking about and dealing with the incredibly boring work of stopping voter suppression where it's happening.

He's especially bad because he has the background in statistics that he can actually see the effects of county level voter suppression and fully understand them. I've seen some academics do studies but I have to admit some of it escapes me. I do know a broken voting machine and a 7 hour wait time when I see one though and they always seem to be in blue districts...

Fetterment is 20 points below water in polls. As soon as the next election comes around he's out. Exact same thing happened to that Sinema. The real issue is that these are senators so it's 6 years before we can kick them out which is by design

It's not a VPN, are you still happy?

My policy argument is that adults who rape children should be punished for it.

Possible but it's easy enough to clean up in a pinch as long as you catch it and it's easy enough to catch early on unless you have underfunded your regulatory agencies because somebody called them bureaucrats...

And when we hit the general election and there is literally billions of dollars of money blasting the eyeballs of your neighbors that's going to be tough. Remember it's not just about convincing you it's about getting voter turnout from people who are otherwise super low information and haven't got a clue what dropping a data center in there county means and even if they did they wouldn't have the mental capacity to put two and two together...

This is why education especially the humanities is so important. It's very difficult to teach people how to think with mathematics no matter what nerds say. That's because with math you're either right or you're wrong there is no in between at least not until you are doing graduate level work.

There is a lot of value in teaching the humanities because somebody can be half right and still learn something from it. With mathematics somebody who is struggling with learning how to think and how to think critically is either going to fail the class or they're going to brute force it with rote memorization. Neither of which is going to teach them how to think.
