This is not what the title makes it to seem, most of India believes science and education leads to success in life and for the country. If anything businesses will now make more money by teaching periodic tables and evolution in "coaching classes"

IDLs and schema/contract definitions in common places should help with this. Stuff like protobufs are good at generating code to use/translate to object models as well.

The primary motivation for choosing the language should not be sharing object models, atleast IMO.

I can see someone else complete by having a competitive prime product equivalent for half the cost and remove unnecessary services. When I think about pricing its not very obvious to tack the $99 fee onto individual orders but you should since you're paying for it(I used to order 50+ times year from amazon and now its down to about 10-15 so it's harder to justify). Also, I rarely use other prime free products.

I'd be willing to move to Walmart or Google Express if they have a good selection and lower minimums + decent shipping times in return for a small yearly membership. I can still use amazon for larger purchases or pay a small premium for shipping as needed.

> So are big corporations going to do kind of a careless job testing live vehicles in a rush to market? Yes. Will people get hurt? Yes. Is it worth it? Yes.

There is a big difference between humans killing others as one off incidents vs one bug, defect or security flaw making a crash possible with the whole fleet. It can be far more catastrophic.

I wonder how software updates and are validated and tested before going to production in autonomous cars. This is scary - imagine being a developer responsible for a similar malfunction. I'm not suggesting that was the case here - just think this might need as much validation as medical equipment (hoping that it won't stifle innovation).

How can they say I did that check and not the person with my data? Seems counter intuitive.
