Waymo driver? The vehicles are autonomous. I otherwise applaud Waymo's response, and I hope they are as cooperative as they say they will be. However, referring to the autonomous vehicle as having a driver is a dangerous way to phrase

I don't understand. What's the troll here? Are you offended? Why?

In another world, I guess bugs would be called mice. But then what would we call mice?

growing number of Americans who extend their working days well past the typical retirement age as the cost of living in the US has soared, wages have stagnated and many therefore have been unable to save. Calling this a blessing in the la

My point was, in response to the OP, to explain to the commenter what had subsequently happened in the context of that motto, pointing out that democrats deliver even what republican strategists think voters want. I can't imagine a rea

Well, they didn't win, but the economy boomed under Clinton (from the Bush recession through the dotcom bubble) and violent crime plummeted in the same time frame as well.

That something could have been lawmakers going on major media saying, unequivocally, that flying is safe, warning not to give away freedoms lightly and even making a show of flying commercial themselves. That something didn't have

As a teacher, do you have any techniques to make sure students learn to write the code?

by dfxm12 9mo ago
Yeah, it's important to elect councillors and MP's that represent the people and not monied interests.

As my comment implied, there is in some places, but the regulations aren't uniform. Also, the person I responded to mentioned supermarket products . I was asking legitimate questions & was hoping to get an informed response.

The words aren't important. The regulated meaning is. Does it have a legal meaning? If so, what is it? Who enforces it? Consider made in Italy vs made in Germany are different in meaningful aspects.

On top of this, Tech Bros want to capitalize on your talent like white bands covering Black artists during segregation.

A very frustrating part is how much bad faith the admin is engaging in. We see a question asked in good faith and an answer that completely ignores the question at hand and instead against a strawman. This is also the regular MO of Vance an

The situation we're in today has obvious roots in the aftermath of 9/11 and the PATRIOT act, and the relative lack of voter outcry after the Snowden leaks. Voters seem all too glad to trade in freedom for fear of boogiemen & h

This is naive. You have to hold your elected officials accountable, lest they walk all over you. This requires thinking about them, what they're doing and thinking about politics.

Yeah, I think when making a game, in general, fun is the first thing to consider. All these games are lumped into the article as "city builders", but Age of Empires and Sim City are completely different genres, just as one example

You're giving Biden no agency in this situation when he was the freaking president of the USA . He could have done more if he wanted.

I don't think it's bad that our elected officials tell us what they're doing. Yeah, it sucks when they're doing heinous shit like Trump, but it's awesome that Zohran Mamdani is doing what he can to tell New Yorkers

For the latter question, ask your insurance company. I'd be surprised if they care specifically that waymo was involved. If you don't have insurance, ask a lawyer what your options would be in that situation.

by dfxm12 9mo ago
Can you elaborate? Are you saying you think people are going to give up their cars because Waymo is available?

I don't understand how this is a new or unique problem. Regardless of when or where (or if!) my coworkers got their degrees, before or after access to AI tools, some of them are intellectually curious. Some do their job well. Some are

It's hard distill entire countries like this (especially based on one guy's comments, told second hand). I understand Adams' quote in the context of Hollywood, but there's more to American culture than Hollywood. These a

In a sense, "everything" is "political", and always has been. It's practically a given, since politics is literally about governing our lives, technical standards, industry regulations, etc. A ton of news, especi

What's the difference a private like and a bookmark? What's the difference between a public like and an RT? They can be tracked separately, but is that necessary?

I try to talk to Trump voters to understand. I suggest you try as well if you're curious about this stuff. N = a dozen or so, but ones I've talked to care more about his actual political stances, like his white nationalist policie

I don't understand every comment as an invitation to debate. You can just not respond to people if you don't want to.
