I was wondering how far away are they from fully automating the process? I always see their new robots.

Too bad there's not a chance to respond, "I assume all responsibility for my unusual browser." I remember having to change the user agent string in Konqueror

When driverless cars hit the road, my family will become a 1 car family (instead of 3). This is going to impact a lot of parking garages and other businesses.

You're correct, some of the time you will need cops. I'm just not sure why it'd be more in Florida than in Seattle or San Francisco. There could be a reason why, I just don't know without the data.

Why? I don't get how we dump everything on cops. Someone with mental illness, call the cops. Someone is homeless, call the cops. We should have more tools than just the cops.

Personally I'd take a weak currency any day. It helped exports. Going back to Russia's economy, the future investment is dying. Its airplanes are not getting new parts. Siemens isn't repairing any equipment. The full effects

What would be highly beneficial is for the AI to understand changes so when it spots an old pattern in my code, it could suggest the new pattern. I'd pay for a Copilot that did that.
