It's a great replacement for the "15 items or less" aisle, more than that and I'll find a line with a human cashier. There's one store that doesn't use humans in the evening, they've lost my business for

Usually other people have handled the downvoting. I will check out the downvoted replies, and if there's no good reason for it to be downvoted I'll vote it up. And if something is really very informative and low on the list I

I wish the lesson were "If something might be criminal, check first and then don't do it". Makes you wonder if anyone has started an "AI-powered legal database miner as-a-service" for rent to zealous prosecutors.

This is a good analogy. Maybe once every few years I'll set up Windows Servers. Being able to use the GUI and not keep a bunch of PowerShell on-hand means I can do it without help, and get on with my day. Meanwhile I'm happier d

That's a reason to have a bank with traditional branches. Also a reason for land-lines that don't require a separate power source. I think South Africa has had power problems in recent years, might be good to look at how they

Under what conditions should a business be allowed to change their prices? I'm OK with a computer making the pricing decision, but like HFT it's the frequency that leads to problems. It's a bit sad that the "free market

I checked the comments because I wanted some good sources on the what-abouts. Preferably from the countries affected. The link to Graeber supports the idea that debt, like power, is destined to be abused. It's not really telling me

I'd think the local governments know what they're getting into, and if not they figure it out after a few years. Nobody is requiring providers to enter those local markets and be unprofitable. Telecoms could raise local prices un
