Comment In other words-AI (Score 1) 46

His own words contradict themselves. "But his comments Thursday framed the layoffs as a cultural reset aimed at keeping the company fast-moving amid what he called 'the technology transformation happening right now.'" AI by any other name would still be AI, if I may paraphrase Shakespeare.

Comment Another data and money grab (Score 3, Informative) 32

From the story "Prescriptions can be filled at any pharmacy, including Amazon’s own online pharmacy, which handles fulfillment and delivery." Nothing was said about privacy and security of info. Given Amazon's record of scooping up as much of your data and money as possible, I'd bet that HIPPA is loosely adhered to. No, thanks, I'll stick with real and local providers.

Comment Amazon is running scared (Score 2) 182

Between this and their really, really stupid tweets, they are behaving like this is the end of the world for the company. And maybe it is, maybe change is in the air and corporate inertia and greed (mostly greed) is frightened at what the new world will look like. Imagine a world where corporate profits go down so workers can live a better life. That scares the bejesus out of Bezos and his crowd.

Comment I am-but have been blocked (Score 1) 98

For nearly 2 months now, I have appealed Twitter's blocking my account for suggesting someone harm themselves or commit suicide by rhetorically asking Rudy Whatshisface and Candace Whatshername if they cared to lead by example and kill themselves so the US economy could get going again, as others in their party were suggesting US senior citizens do. I have no intention of deleting the tweet and Twitter, apparently, has no intention of getting back to me on my appeal.

Comment Have driven all 3 (Score 1) 170

And have driven the iPace, as well. I liked the iPace for the ride and ride height. The Model X felt too big and heavy. I'm going to continue to save for about a year, then make a choice: by then I think I will have 3 choices-the Model Y, the iPace and the Rivian R1S. Right now I give Tesla the edge, mostly for tech and charging stations. But in a year, who knows? The Rivian design appeals to me and over that time the iPace may improve as well. One can only hope that the non-Tesla charging network does the same.
