    Here's one of the fun problems that Ford is dealing with, snow: The Clever Way Ford’s Self-Driving Cars Navigate in Snow What they're doing is cool and textbook.

    Nothing you said even addressed what I said. For SAE4, maybe, under certain constraints. 2021 is the kind of date that is ambitious and near enough to be impressive, but not near enough that people will hold you to it. But SAE5? Not a chance. http://www.sae.org/misc/pdfs/automated_driving.pdf...

    Oh, and I'm super pumped for the next olympics. Instead of slums, sewage and Zika we have awesome autonomy stuff. Tokyo is setting up an entire robotic village for the 2020 Olympics

    They have rent-a-bike stations that cost $8 for a half hour of use: BCycle - Home Maybe when we get to Star Trek levels of tech we'll have free autonomous taxi-service, but don't expect it to be cheap for a long time. Here's the truth: taxi drivers aren't expensive, uber drivers less so...

    This is completely false. Lawn care is a pretty complex problem and few people will pay big bucks to take care of a subset of that problem with a robot. It's like saying the existence of the roomba has removed the market for vacuum cleaners.

    A few key points from someone in the industry: 1. We're very far from 100% autonomous vehicles being mass marketed to the consumer. As in decades away.

    Pokemans and how to catch them with your phone - friend codes in OP

    It's probably anectdotal but I really hope they add in that kind of spawning information. Anything that gives players clues as to where or when to go hunting for pokemon adds a lot of depth to the game.

    Everquest - Bristlebane Server

    Sterling, BB is my home and I don't really want to relive my time in EQ. Zyke, I'm not totally integrated into the community but basically there are two top guilds: Ring of Valor and Reckless Ascension. I don't know RA's history much if they're a server transfer, split or what. RoV has casual...
