My point isn't his car is obsolete, its that the technology he's complaining about is not the same that will be installed 5 or 6 years from now.

It's odd that you are so aggressively defending Japan. How is you having an opinion that they have "the best restaurants in the world" an achievement of Japan? Secondly, if you read the original comment I made, I am agreeing

I'm sorry but none of what you are suggesting is mentioned in the article, and this system is not out yet for anyone to have evaluated it and come to your conclusion. Did you have a source for your statement?

This romanticized view doesn't look at the problems of Japan: - high suicide and depression rates - excessive work culture - irrational fear of foreigners - widespread addictions: gambling, alcohol, anime, games - "best restaurant

Majority of comments here are on the headline and clearly did not read the article: - It doesnt use breathalyzers, it uses safety systems similar as those for cruise control. - It would be installed at the factory by manufacturers. - It wou

I agree with your points. I dont know why some people are creepily obsessed with Japan. Many people seem to develop their idealized version of a society in their head and then project that image onto Japan and Japanese people whereas it is

I've seen smaller trucks at work. The bed size doesnt matter as much as towing capacity.

>The existing ones were un-changable aspects about you that you can't control, and are born into. That's not how westerners feel about gender any more.

Surely the primary reason for the name is much fewer people would click and share otherwise. It's clickbait with software.

Right, I don't see the "anime" part. This just looks like one of the thousands of nameless photo editing software filters.

They do imitate it, they do enough to take pictures of themselves and they buy into the sports clothing brands and entertainment. Few actually do regular and consistent exercise. I think there would be an increase in biking if the celebs di

I think the issue goes further than that into being a societal problem. Majority of America is overweight, staring down at their phones day and night, and dread physical activity. They also like to flex their position and wealth to others,

That's right. After grace period it goes into a period called redemption where they can still get it back but it cost like $120. Source: Used to work at registrar.

A lot of it is also the American public being selfish and inconsiderate of others. Even at a low wage, I'm sure the job would be more bearable and perhaps even enjoyable if the employees were not treated so poorly by the public and the

If someone is intent on committing crime. Say a serial killer who has killed many people, then while incarcerated continues attempting to attack and kill guards and other inmates, you would say this person should not be killed? I feel that

Your comment is not in the spirit of HN and I hope it is deleted. You are asserting someone has mental illness just because they are claiming something which is well known. Gamers nexus, which is a top reviewer, have mentioned they dont get

I know people who live where there is no zoning and went from having nothing but empty land next to their house, to a car mechanic, loud gym, fireworks stand, and many other undesirable businesses (to be living beside) in their backyard. Yo

I don't know where it's being blocked in your view but to use my earlier example of silicon valley, maybe there is a limitation of geographic space, resources in relation to population, and zoning considerations. Maybe silicon val

If you can accept technology changes over time (goodbye horse and carriage), and that society changes over time (hello LGBTQI rights), why is it unreasonable to accept the price you pay for goods will change? Naturally, its a given that

I think this is a fallacy perpetuated by unrealistic ideals. I bought a house for 175K at 24. I only make 50K a year. I don't have a college degree. Lot of people saying buying houses is hard, unrealistic, or impractical want to buy ma
