How are they going to get there?

The human is probably just there like a safety driver while everything gets running smoothly. Another year and they're no longer needed: the truck drives itself, the delivery bot is loaded by a tender bot, and the delivery bot delivers the package. No need to make a video of what is coming, which would make the silly humans emotional.

The fake obituary was the best way to deploy him to Iran secretly so the Ayatollahs and Epstein don't have a chance to escape.

Definitely seems like a waste of resources to take out a guy past his natural life expectancy. I guess they thought it would be a catalyst for the system to collapse after the recent protests. Low odds of success, but the consequences of failure are also low. So what if there are some posters made of the guy with "martyr" written on them? If war is becoming an exchange of tons of drones and missiles it's better to attack before the enemy builds up its capacity

Bigger question will be why go to school when companies aren't hiring? Probably 3/4 colleges and 1/2 high schools can close tomorrow and productivity stay the same or increase

Sounds more like the US gave them more opportunities to travel the world, buy multiple properties, and retire early. Meanwhile in the socialist utopias the middle class will be priced out by the Americans and rot in drab apartments (while paying for the Americans "right" to healthcare and other services). Kind of the other side of the globalist coin of poor migrants undercutting wages (while leaching off public services)

Boston Dynamics probably intentionally avoided showing the public anything that hinted at job replacements, but it's probably not be worth the investment anyway. When most of the middle class is unemployed who is going to pay someone to crawl around in their attack, human or robot?

But they don't switch off the robots in the morning. Ask the doctor about the life expectancy of homeless people.

You're assuming "THE BIGGEST ONE OF THEM ALL" isn't coming. History is full of economists being 100% wrong.

Modern frauds are too complex, you mean. Everyone knows the dollar is on borrowed time, the future is gold.

Sure he's doing fine (at least until the next rent increase), but $25/h is more like a fair wage than a generous one that will attract a lot more applicants, like it was when rent was $1000 or lower (not long ago!).

There are lots of men doing worse jobs for half as much. Roofers, sewage treatment, cops, firefighters, soldiers, etc. Just like any market the price isn't higher because it doesn't have to be.

$25 isn't so great when rent is $1500.

School competitions are based heavily on memorization. Though I wouldn't underestimate that, people who spend 1000s of hours training for STEM are going to be better at it than people spending 1000s of hours training playing video games and football. China's problem is probably that top-down control can never let the talent run, seeing Jack Ma be disappeared was probably not very inspirational to those Olympiad winners

Prostitution is illegal on Epstein island.
