AI isn't on the list, because it's not that big of a threat to what drivers actually have to do. Just driving is the easy/boring part. Without huge changes AI isn't going to manage paperwork, load shifting, securing load

Colleges are roughly 40/60 M/F so this sample isn't too far out of whack. Further reducing to white only could easily make up the 5 point difference.

I'd still want my car, and I wouldn't want it just driving in circles for hours. Less spots could be necessary in downtown areas, since a car can drop you off and park a few miles away. car ownership isn't going to disappear

Lets not pretend that humans are great at snow. Lanes become imaginary in snow and best case the two track is roughly similar to the actual lane. The power of humans in snow is understanding that rules are more like guidelines and bending o

Getting questions on a test is actually really expensive for a standardized test. It's been a while, but I believe it cost was in the $3-4k range per question for my state's tests. These test questions go through significant amoun

Just being insurance doesn't mean much. What the above comment said is true, many doctors don't take Medicaid or severely limit how many patients they have with it. Doctors aren't required to take any/all insurances. Med

You can easily reproduce that an atmosphere higher in CO2 gets warmer without having a second Earth, you don't need a full planet to test a single atmospheric effect. What you can't do is quantify that to a meaningful measure in t

2016 is when the majority of US news stopped trying to have any pretense of objectivity. I'd put the start of the slide closer to 2005 as a response to Bush winning re-election and calming of the post 9/11 fervor.

It's more than just throwing money at it. EA tried and failed to separate from Steam. Epic might succeed, but it's not going to be because of money, but because Fortnite let them capture young gamers before they got into Steam. Wh

It depends, but generally yes. Collapsing to 1 may or may not be a good thing, but you probably want less than 3-5 different DBMS, CMS, Cloud providers, printing services, source control systems, office supply/equipment, etc.
