Great points, and additionally pleasure yachts stay relatively near coasts most of the time and don't navigate the deep water.

Unions are compensated proportional to N*S where N is number of workers and S is average salary. Workers care about increasing S, but unions sometimes focus on increasing N because it is easier. But then the individual worker doesn't see their life improve.

Did you manage to realize any insurance savings? Or do the BigCo's just not care if you monitor it right?

I want a heist-like (or maybe Hitman-like) game that has significant social interactions. Specifically where NPCs can decide whether or not to trust you, based on freeform speech input. Could be text NLP, or speech recognition.

I love the idea of bouncing around people at a cocktail party, trying to deduce some important secret that no individual will reveal, at least not unless you act that you already know. Maybe you've gatecrashed some kind of Hannibal Lecter party, and everyone but you knows who the next victim is, so you have to discover who/where/when and prevent it.

This is a great idea. I'm shocked no one (to my knowledge) has tried this before. And I mean that in the best possible way, which is to say that great ideas seem obvious in retrospect.

I just hope it's largely installed in electric vehicles if they're going to drive around most of the time.

One thing that the author misses is that a dollar spent on congestion charges doesn't matter the same to everyone. A fancy lawyer probably doesn't even think about a $10 toll but a grocery cashier probably would drive an extremely inefficient route to avoid that toll.

I think we need to find a way to "charge" people in a way that matters equally to everyone. I usually advocate for things in terms of time (community service hours) because that perfectly hedges against the person's wage level. Although I suppose given their tax receipts we could just adjust the monetary charge for their observed hourly wage.

Any other ideas for adjusting "charges" to have equal importance for different people?

> After creating 69 pull requests the reaction ranged from:

> Annoyance that a bot with no context on their codebase was raising pull requests. A few accepted the bugs were simple enough for a bot to fix and merged the pull request, but a few closed the pull requests and issues without fixing. Fair enough. Open source developers are busy people and are not being paid to interact with what they think it just a bot. We’re not entitled to their limited time.

> Neutral silence. They just merged the PR.

> Gratitude. “thanks” or “good bot”.

I appreciate their self awareness about responses from maintainers.

Has anyone done this kind of program for a Master's in Education? Wondering how fast an M.Ed. can be gotten.
