Why should they replace buses? What about self driving buses? What about an automated subway? It's just a box on a track, with the state of all the trains in the track known, self driving would almost be overkill for subways/trams

It's context switching, I face this daily due to my OCD. The damn doorways are always a problem. I'm not very well versed on this subject, but have there been any experiments conducted with a doorway in the middle of a basketball

Thanks for replying, I didn't expect anyone to reply tbh. I encompassed 'roids' to mean more than just steroids in my mind, including EPO's and blood doping, when I was typing it out furiously. I'll correct myself.

Thanks for taking the time to reply, I did read the article. I just typed my statement out in haste. I'll reel in that habit.

I just had a look at your NCAA visualisation. It was great, and just like your description, not something everyone would search for. So what? It's super interesting, BECAUSE it's the first time I'm seeing those stats in the f

Why on earth are blaring horns the first thing on your video? It's an immediate 'close tab' motion for a lot of people. Cut that part out and you'll have a lot more eyeballs on your product.

I'm quite disturbed by efforts like this. Perhaps because I cannot fathom how a chatbot can help replace human compassion and emotion from just simple human characteristics like facial expressions. A major part of the solution will
