Very interesting. Why should the liability be any different if its a robot's fault or a human's fault? These are hard externalities that turn into political and legal fights. The technological reality will never go away.

No, not in Joe Rogan's case. The code is more something like: if (iLetSpotifyGiveMeMoney) {gain50millionDollars()}

The people in this thread that think Joe cares about what the viewers think. He publicly said he doesn't care about deleted episodes and censorship, just there to collect Spotify money. Good for him, he has a goal and he is executing i

Joe has publicly said that he did the deal for the money and nothing else. More power to him. Y'all have it twisted.

Were phone books voluntary back in the day? I can't remember, I was 10 years old. Real estate records is a big problem. Back in the day they intended the use case to be "who lives at {address}" not "where does {person} l

Yes, since anyone can call in a SWAT team to anyone's house at this point.

The State of Oregon already tried to sue someone who was a software engineer for not being a "certified 'Engineer'" and the state's own supreme court ruled in favor of the defendant.

This is the reason why our country will die a soon approaching death: the people who built all of our engines for WW2 were not certified engineers.

Your friend was working for a bureaucratic company. Source: I know plenty of engineers without any formal degrees working for big money at real companies.

More time to work on important projects instead of me mindlessly scrolling and clicking in circles.

Your problem is not that you are North African, but rather that you are living in an area controlled by a group of people who feel that this is a smart policy to have, which of course it is not. Come to the USA-- for all of our problems, yo

Literally this. Just more vindictive management at Amazon.

Speak with an accountant. People cut 1099-Miscs very frequently.

Can I join as 1099/equity? I have 9 years of xp building distributed spring boot services

You are replying to me with your own tangential situation. Perhaps you shouldn't compensate all candidates, or compensate them less. I didn't say anything about why someone should be compensated, just how, if someone wanted to. As

Agreed, just saying that it wouldn't be tax free income.

Scrap the whole thing and start over. Deliveries should be done by autonomous air drops. Transportation by autonomous aircraft.

However the IRS states all income above $10 "must" be reported by the recipient.

Are you implying that the costs of my plan would make you go bankrupt? If you already have a job and a house, then my plan would be to simply have the cost of groceries == the cost of operating the grocery making machine

I also have a brand new M1 Macbook. But when the supply of laptops dry up, I'll sell you my thinkpad for a fair price if you need one...

In a post-apocalyptic world yes, but fortunately raspis are still in stock now. To the victor the spoils!

That is why you need to get your hands on them now while supplies last. I'm still using my 13 year old think pad for things. Whether or not a global reduction in available services is coming, it might be wise to stock up some things no

I'm pretty sure that Valve made quite the pretty penny off of just user made maps alone for CS Source? "Dude check out this crazy game, you can SURF around, kill people, and level up your character for crazy new powers" was t

We need more robots and simplified production methods for households. It is clear that we cannot always trust entities, private or public, to deliver the things we would like to pay for. Therefore, it is time for humans to once again grow

It's all fun and games till people start talking about money and exploitation. Back in my day, we made mods for fun, and then we used the skills we learned to get jobs doing something corporate.
