IIRC the EU is trying to mandate breathalyzers in all vehicles. I think they're working towards GPS based speed limitation being a standard thing too. OTOH the US hasn't tried to do that yet... Fun to think about why. On one hand

If I had to guess, they were moreso referring to the java examples... The article states "The biggest issue is the same one Java had before version 5, there’s no type safety"... But that's a weird way to put it... Java 5 was

I'll give a fun example from the past. I used to work at a company that did auto inspections. (e.x. if you turned a lease in, did a trade in on a used car, private party, etc.) Because of that, we had a server that contained 'cond
