Honestly it sounds like home assistant could be useful to you, if you have the time to tinker. Definitely can build rules based on sunset times.

Yup, blindly following. Clearly that is my way. No independent thought whatsoever.

Perhaps we should force cars out so wagon makers can have their jobs back?

Perhaps we should force out wagons and horses to bring in a new age of rickshaws?

My take is, your take is pretty simple-minded.

Holy shit, its logical fallacy over and over with you.

I didn’t make any assumptions. If they can avoid animals now (which they can, and do), they can improve that detection and/or logic for cats that have disappeared under the car and not reappeared. That’s not even an assumption, much less a “big” one.

And you’ve never hit a cat that was hiding under your car? Are you sure? How can you prove it? Have you gotten out each time you drove away to make sure there wasn’t a cat left behind?

And you’ve driven 93m miles, so you can compare your extensive history and record of driving with waymo’s?

I personally don’t like the idea of driverless cars.

And there is your bias.

No one argues self-driving cars are “needed.” The point is, they are a significant improvement over humans when developed correctly.

I have faith that if they keep making errors like this, people won’t give them business. I have faith that they will fix socially unacceptable issues in the name of money.

Kindly fuck off with your misplaced judgement.

While our vehicle was stopped to pick up passengers, a nearby cat darted under our vehicle as it was pulling away,

There are plenty of assholes who will aim for cats while driving. This, at least, can likely be remedied fleet-wide and permanently with a software fix. These people are just looking for an excuse to rail against automation— as if a human driver would have definitely seen the cat.

Also, keep cats inside.

Note it’s made with, not from. So other types of animals (wild, working, etc) are probably included too.

Hahaha

Does it matter where a good idea comes from?

This is gen z in a nutshell. Telling management how they will be managed.

I’m all for tearing down walls and rebuilding institutions, but wait your turn. Wait until you understand something of it. It’s unlikely a business can run only on the people you like.

And what a sad world that would be if we all divided up into our little cliques for the rest of our lives. No adversity. Nothing we don’t like to cause trouble for us. How boring.

Sure, take the best option for you. That’s the business world. But leave your demands in your head.

I dunno, I’m seeing some light.

And level! It must be at the center.

Some spiders also produce milk.

Problem is, this is the education people need before it happens. Critical thinking. Once it’s part of their identity everything you say is just a lie aimed at dismantling what they “know” to be true.

Unfortunately republicans have been destroying education for decades, and Fox news and AM radio have been preying on the weak minded for just as long.

It depends on whether you mean old money wealthy or other. I don’t think it’s so much about the wealth as the entitlement that sets these people apart. Trying to date/marry in as an outsider can be difficult at best, if not just from the culture shock.

That’s…

I think OP is referring to real hair, no wig necessary.

Well, it would be perfect for someone who wants to ink plans to break out of prison I guess.

Look up Shepherd’s-purse (Capsella bursa-pastoris)

Hey, could you watch some ads for me? Mines out.
