dicks assassin posted:Truck driving is a low skill position, but it's not a no skill position. No skill positions are painting lines on the roads, which will increase dramatically once self driving cars become available. Just send a truck with good sensors to paint lines for the ones without.

That's weird, Reuters/Ipsos changes its models to assuming that minority turnout is massively reduced and white turnout reaches record levels, and suddenly Trump is picking up traditionally whiter states he didn't have before!

Voice recognition is like talking to a deaf grandma whose first language is Gaelic. Touchscreens are as sensitive as a leper's kneecaps. Both of them suck.

DOOP posted:With how many humans there are that suck at driving, I intend to disagree I suspect we're going to have more than a few years of truck drivers doing what airline pilots do now: not much on the open highway, but a whole hell of a lot in cities, parking lots, and inclement weather. What's weird is people acting like self-driving cars are an all/nothing dichotomy. There's a lot of "driver assistance" technology in between, you guys.

DICKS FOR DINNER posted:Their methodology in their state polls seems wildly hosed. Even beyond their small sample sizes (isn't MoE on groups that size like 7-10%?), it just feels like their 'state polls' just being a cut-out of their national poll is likely to be even more inaccurate. It's sort of like the post hoc analysis issue in clinical trials. A really good trial to investigate an intervention on a studied population starts to break down when you cut the population into increasingly small subgroups after the fact. I imagine a similar issue is occurring here. A good national poll can't just be cut into 50 subgroups and expect the analysis to still hold.

No, in fact all the automated trucks will take great care to drive perfectly parallel to each other across all traffic lanes at their matched speeds. Enjoy the grimdark future.

Samurai Sanders posted:The issue is that laws right now are indeed "all or nothing", right? Either you're completely in control and have responsibility over the vehicle or you don't. How is that going to be squared with auto drive features creeping in? It's already squared away, and it basically works like airline pilots. You can turn on the driver assistance programs, you can even rely on them, but you have to be paying enough attention to the road to correct your course and speed if they fail. This means you can offer more attention to the sound system or the other people in the car, but sadly the days of reading a good book while behind the wheel is a decade or more ahead of us. Also, IANAL but I'm pretty sure civil law courts can assign percentages of blame when there's more than one defendant.

Raenir Salazar posted:The emphasis on Self-Driving cars (Autos seems to be the going term) is that it will have the single largest visible effect on the labour force as there's something like 30 million jobs world wide that could vanish* in an extremely short amount of time as soon as insurance companies give the green light. I don't think it will be in a short period of time. For one, trucks are expensive. The average fleet age is like 10-15 years. Even if it doubled the rate of sales you're still talking about 10-15 years. Two, drivers often do more than just drive. Often times they will help load or unload. My father has a retirement job "driving" for a farm equipment dealership. A large part of what he does is picking up equipment for repair or sometimes even repairing some of the stuff on the spot. The most likely scenario is that we will see a gradual phase out of driving/trucking jobs over decades, not a cataclysmic mass lay off of tens of millions of people.

Glad the feds took him in. If it was the locals they'd probably release him and then you end up with a situation like the dude who got released after running an immigrant's mom over then getting back from jail and shooting him.

It's probably the first unless they're anticipating enormous amounts of Democratic votes being driven out to the boonies and burned by desperate state GOP parties, which if that's the case they need to be honest I lean toward the former tho because they changed it without telling anybody and it took weeks to get the new info out of them. Of course they're the media so obviously they can't do anything wrong

Also lmao talking about automation on labor day weekend? Disrespectful. Here I'll join you: If poo poo gets bad enough my plan is to smash up robots and wreck up any factory that uses them overwhelmingly because automation is wrecking the playing field in America more than anything else and it's abundantly clear that poo poo all is going to get done unless automation is given some extra costs to factor in before everybody gets laid off. edit - the extra costs are the costs of replacing the machine a few times if it's located near enough angry unemployed people
