Two dead and few dozen ill doesn't quite sound like the worst thing. Random street cops do that to more people for no good reason in any given year.

At triple the speed and double the approach angle, for ~6 times the sink rate. Hardly an approximation.

The final approach was at about 12 degrees glide. This is about double of no-power Cessna, but still kinda shallow.

While some are indeed highly skilled and earn well, many are skilled only on paper and end up driving Ubers. Also in the recent past many of the skilled migrants were for low-paid occupations like chefs.

Yeah, Iran blowing up half the Middle East? Totally Bezos' fault.

Per capita GDP is falling with every new migrant. I don't think it's the kind of GDP growth anyone wants to have.

Nobody in Australia should like it.

Like ordering the submarines from France... again?

There's plenty of traditional architecture that's not baroque, and is therefore not very rich in ornamentation. An austere brick home with a tiled roof still wins over a modernist cube house in both form and function, if not cost.

Paint the stopper vantablack then.

"Leg to stand on"

... to run any company into the ground autonomously

The life-bearing debris would have to arrive quite some time after formation of Earth, as it was molten. Surviving atmospheric entry is hard, surviving after landing in lava is impossible.

You might know them as street racers and/or "these assholes with loud pipes at 3AM".

Teslas also require a couple of OoMs more interventions driving the same distance than Waymos.

This is not supported by crash data. In Australia alcohol is involved in some 30% of fatal crashes. A lot of crashes are caused by a very small number of hoon drivers, distracted drivers etc.

Autonomous cars beating the average that includes the above are still worse than a diligent driver, which anyone can resolve to be.

The question is why post ads to Hacker News.

Wrong number, I have no idea.

GBM/DRM Kodi supports HDR video on the Orange Pi 5 family. You can grab whatever audio from HDMI or plug whatever in the usb port, the only advantage of this Vero is the optical out.

Any SBC like Radxa Rock (cheap) to Orange Pi (powerful). 4k output, a linux you control, play retro games or stream torrent movies.

The argument against "they can do something else with their lives" is not a strawman though.

In a hypothetical end state where the people who own fully-automated production of everything, and need maybe few millions employed to support and guard that production, the "freed" people are not going to do something better with their lives.

As a kid I'd often start reading books from about the middle, if I liked it, I'd restart from the beginning before I finished, if I didn't, I got another book.

Stay mad.

None needed.

I don't know. The website does what it needs to and doesn't do anything to annoy me.

Creativity and originality? Like when you try to scroll a page and it rotates an image gallery instead?

IBM is more than 100 years old, has defined a huge part of how we think about computers, made plenty of its employees and workers of the wider field rich, has sold many businesses it considered distracting, and is still worth $200B+. Anyone saying "IBM" in the sense of "stagnant failure" is delusional.

At least Victoria and NSW treat ubers exactly like private cars in terms of child restraints.

"Cannot carry safely" is valid defence for whatever discrimination suit I believe.

Then again, plenty of Uber drivers carry a booster seat, I wonder why Uber doesn't just have a checkbox for that.

Nope, see above - 144 vs 80-90 right this moment, taxi is way more expensive.

13cabs, a licensed cab operator, just gave me an estimate of AUD144, UberX 79, Uber Comfort 90.
