It's pretty common in my circles to call it X now. Things change, most people adapt.

I'm curious why they can't pick up and drop off at exact locations, as long as the location is in their operating boundaries.

I'm not sure even Los Angeles keeps them up 24/7. Most cities either schedule them for evenings or do as-needed.

There's a lot of small towns where buying Main Street wouldn't be an outrageous cost. It's got some appeal. Go in and make it work again.

But when you get down to the "How?" it quickly becomes apparent that the inertia is strong and the odds of success are extremely low.

Still, it's a fun daydream.

I did the same. I know it won't matter to them, but I feel better not paying for a product they're actively and intentionally making worse.

It does also mean I'll be doing much less frequent business with their store.

It seems related to the car not being aware there was an injured person under it.

It's not hard to imagine that it's simply unequipped to know something like that, and it does seem fair to require that it become so equipped.

Huge supporter of autonomous cars, still feel like this is completely reasonable to require a solution for.

2011 here. Fully remote teams for more of that.

It does take time and active effort to become fully productive in a remote environment. It's not something you're just born knowing how to do, it's a set of skills just like working in an office is a set of skills. You have to learn them.

I have no idea if it's making them money, but a year ago I never heard anyone say the name "Bing" and now I'm hearing it several times a day.

I doubt most will. I will, but I don't buy that much from them anyway.
