And isn't it interesting that even though we've had driverless trains for decades many of them still require a driver? In London the DLR (Docklands Light Railway) is fully automatic. In Tokyo the trains are computer controlled but

What is stopping American cities from changing their infrastructure investment from automobiles to micromobility? Is there one, big, standout reason that could be addressed? It's a change that takes decades and it's fighting again

I think many will still have cars, although they'll have to be electric [0]. Will the driverless car be as cheap as the second hand Nissan Leaf? Also, perhaps the car isn't used to commute every day when the weather is good and yo

If we expect driverless cars to be further delayed and we continue building our cities to encourage micromobility (bikes, electric scooters, segregated lanes, car free streets, etc.) then at which point does the value of the driverless car

Tim Harford in "The Undercover Economist" has a neat description of how the market isn't rational and really can't be predictable. So I'm not worried about machines in the market as they can't really do any bet

Why would you do that? I take it this isn't an Agile team but are they working on software?

I would like to see an improvement in the culture, too, and I've seen organisations experiment with "Do Not Disturb" desks, with very limited success. Every office I've been in has been open-plan. If it's full of de

This is my experience of British management over the last quarter of a century. I am an expensive contract resource but I still get paid for turning up and not so much for providing working software. When I am working remotely, due to the
