This is Hawaii, which is like California, where the wealthy run roughshod over the poor...and nobody thinks twice about it.

There are millions...out of billions. That’s the problem. There are far more people making things worse (a little or a lot, by intention or indifference) than there are who are working to make things better. And that ratio is getting worse, not better. Society is set up, more and more, to select FOR sociopathic…

Your mistake is assuming that everyone wants the same thing. They don’t. Not everyone is happy to live a simple, comfortable life. Some people really do want the whole fucking world to themselves (at least they *think* they do). To them, eliminating the rest of humanity is an acceptable solution to achieving that…

Yeah, that’s part of ‘the process.’ Having the tools is only relevant, in this case, if the industry for which they’re made is ready to adopt them. Having to completely rebuild warehouses, packaging, shipping, etc to reap these benefits is a major obstacle to the more thorough robotics adoption.

The vast majority of humanity just can’t be bothered to give a shit about anything not in their immediate vicinity (biologically, physically, chronologically, etc). Then you have the proportion who are assholes and idiots. They’ll do whatever they want, whenever they want, and they enjoy watching the harm or distress…

Sadly, there are two mindsets for robotics.

Word on the vines is that Netflix’s Daredevil is being picked back up by Disney, or at least there’s talk about it (now that it can be, given the non-compete terms of the original license contracts). So there’s a chance that more of that could migrate to Disney’s Marvel plans in the semi-near future, which could includ…

If we’re being honest, robotics are about a generation or two away from being able to replace pretty much the entirety of human workers in warehouses. In ~10 years or so, the people still working in warehouses will be more akin to managers than grunt workers. And given the scale of Amazon’s operations and warehouses,…

Considering the brazen racism in some of the ‘projects’ teachers have given students in GOP states — for those of you who have been paying attention — I’m not sure ‘competence’ should be assumed. After all, many of them are STILL trying to teach (and often are teaching) Creationism in the classroom.

I’ll reserve judgment of the film for itself, but if she got to chase and catch one of her dreams (for better or worse), I’m glad for her. Here’s hoping it was worth it.

Exactly. This lawyer is dishonestly attempting to smear another person’s actions for the purposes of overturning the legitimate sentence of a killer cop. He should be disbarred....or have the legal statute of being an accomplice after the fact applied to *him* as well. Maybe that’d scare a few corrupt lawyers back…

The lawyer(s) responsible for prolonging this farce should also be disbarred. The jury ruled. There was no evidence of jury ‘prejudice’ on which to base this claim...other than the fact that they were shown video evidence of Chauvin torturing and murdering a man in cold blood while wearing a badge. And that’s not…

Probably because a reusable drone that can be directed multiple times at other incoming drones is a better tool for the job, and in this instance is both safer and cheaper, in the long run. Sometimes, the military does a half-way decent job developing good tools. Not always, but sometimes. If you can launch just one…

Doesn’t really mean much. Franklin D Roosevelt, one of our country’s greatest, had over 3000 orders over his 3 terms. It’s not about how many orders you give, it’s what you do with them and why.

This was exactly my fear when Democrats failed to amass a near super majority — they’d get stonewalled into ineffectualism (because centrists DINOs gotta ‘bipartisan’ in their pants), get blamed for it, and the Republicans easily retake congress or at least the Senate once more, ensuring that Biden gets *NOTHING* done…

Don’t get me wrong: not making things worse is clearly a step up from the previous president’s efforts. But if you were expecting Joe “Don’t Rock The Boat” Biden to, well, rock the boat, you clearly haven’t being paying attention.

A bitcoin conference and Florida — the perfect convergence of differing forms of stupidity.

And I’m sure they’ll all be removed from duty and ultimately fired for it. All those ‘good cops’ I keep hearing about will do the right thing, after all. Yup...any day now....

Shitty person, incapable of realizing he’s a shitty person, continues being a shitty person. So, how ‘bout a clean up on aisle You. The rest of us would like to be rid of your filth.

No one stole your exceptionalism, America, you traded it for whiteness. So fear not, your country isn’t broken. You designed it this way.
