Isn't the TX1 almost identical to the nvidia shield tv? So why is it so expensive then? ($599 vs $199)

No i think automation is good. But the distribution of the profits from automation is completely a mess. The population needs money that they can spend for the companies to make profit. So either a taxation like this or a universal income,

It would be like a VAT. Every company would have to pay it. So it levels the field.

It would tax robots AND have other effects. But what is the reason for the taxation of robots? More (human) people should get jobs and money to spend.

Tax them e.g. 50% of their revenue. And give them a tax rebate that is the sum of the salary for the human employees. That would be a big incentive to employ humans and still they can make good profit.

> a[1-3] [1] 1 3 > a[[1-3]] Error in a[[1 - 3]] : attempt to select more than one element The first line evaluates to a[-2]. I think what the author meant was a[1:3]. a[[-2]] gives an error, a[[2]] is valid R.

when the question is: "where are they?" and the answer is: "there is nobody here." then all long living civilisations must have left. so we should answer the question "why did they leave?"

you can write macros that handle that. in lisp everything can be code (or data). that is its greatest strength and its greatest weakness at the same time.
