Autonomous cars will destroy millions of jobs and reshape the US economy by 2025

Most people—experts included—seem to think that the transition to driverless vehicles will come slowly over the coming few decades, and that large hurdles exist for widespread adoption. I believe that this is significant underestimation.

Individual apps do not have to wait for a yearly release schedule to update them. The OS itself does not have to wait for its own self-mandated release schedule. Apple is its own company that can do what they want. There’s no good reason Apple didn’t address this months ago. There’s no good reason they can’t address this now.

Every developer will tell you that they file bugs, wait a year, and the bug doesn’t get fixed. And then they have to wait another year, just on hope. This doesn’t work.

Nothing happened on June 4, 1989. Never forget!

Really Amazon? You think I'd like that? 🤔 A movie that took $22,284 at the box office 😂

Or did you pay over $100,000,000 for it and it utterly bombed so you are desperately trying to scrape some pennies from it?

My dog has been on a hypoallergenic diet for five weeks. One week to go. And she is SICK of it! (Imagine if all you could eat for six weeks was boiled potatoes. Nothing else. Not even salt. So, yeah, sympathy.)

Today she was pawing at me. So I said "show me". She takes me to her food bowl. Sticks her nose in. Then walks to the fridge (where the tasty dog food lives). Taps it with her nose. Poor thing 😭

I can't wait to give her proper food again. This is breaking me. (And her)

More of this please. Creepy Uncle Eric and the rest of them should be hounded every time they leave their castles.
Apple Maps for the #AusGP shows the track and gates that are useful to people while the grand prix is on. Google maps just shows you a couple of places that have paid for ads.
Ten years ago today we landed in Australia 🎉🇦🇺
All those text messages - millions of dollars - to get half the votes of the Legalise Cannabis Party 😂 #AusPol

I'd have preferred a minority government with Greens having some influence, but this is still a good result for the country.

And combined with Canada earlier in the week, it's a strong signal that the sane world is not, in fact, falling in to fascism, but is standing strong against it.

(If the coalition lose many seats and if Dutton loses his, that's just gravy!)
