Self driving or driverless? I don't see any significant savings for self-driving cars, you still need to pay the person and you have the significant added expense of fleet maintenance. Not to mention liability concerns, unless they p

I'm curious, so what do you do if the fine is never paid? ETA: IS a non-bankruptable fne proportional if the fraud actually bankrupted many others? What if the consequence of the fraud on said victims then led them to further crimes

USB type-C/Thunderbolt 3 is a fantastic technology, but I guarantee you that USB type-A devices will still be around by the time these new USBC-only MBP's are replaced. Embracing the future at the expense of the present is not in
