But would you even know it?

I wish I was born 100 years from now so I could have been a cyborg. Imagine having a WiFi-like capability built directly into your brain and being able to at any time reference any information in the collection of humanity. /drool

You only need a human in the front end taking orders and dealing with people. Everything from the register on back can be automated. I agree that maintenance would need to be factored in but thats chump change compared to "managing" a human. No rest, no errors. Humans are almost always the weak link in a system, unless you need decision making capabilities. And I think in our lifetime we will see machine even overcome that limitation.

I found it interesting that in a little over one year of paying someone $15/hour, you completely pay off the robot in full (2080 x 15 = 31200).

McDonald’s ex-CEO: $15/hr minimum wage will unleash the robot rebellion.

Caught up on the last episode of The Flash and I thought it was pretty good.

I forgot to watch The Flash last night but I already spoiled myself on the ending and man in the mask. Meh. Ill still watch it for the Zoom fight I guess.

Guy driving Tesla uses auto-pilot to take nap on commute. I wish this was me.

IMO, money or power facilitates the deviancy but does not create it. It must already be there lurking below the surface.

Yeah, that's the part that makes my radar flicker. Its very convenient in todays day and age to squeal like a pig with cries of discrimination every time you don't get what you want. It cant just be that she sucks, it MUST be because shes transgender.

I'm here to chit-chat, not research someone else's topics. Generally speaking, when having informal conversations, I will take what the person offers as a summary of the talking points. That's just how I roll. Others prefer to drive it into the ground. I wonder what the laws are regarding unpaid minors. Maybe nothing since they aren't technically an employee?

"Could". In this case it did not. Admittedly Ive only read the quote summaries that HH provided but to me it stinks of people being upset, likely due to a feeling of irreplaceability, because they weren't hired on permanently. Queue throwing random turds against the wall (discrimination!, meaness! ism! ISM! ISM!) to see what sticks. I could be wrong.

So they are a group on interns that got let go?

We should totally hook up.

On the net, people are who they tell you they are. You don't really know. I'm 18/f/Chitown

Its me.

I'm already offended.

Grievance #3, room temperature beer. What the hell is wrong with you, UK?

If it doesn't somehow involve The Antichrist Under the Vatican, I'm going to be disappoint. Next up on my grievance list? Toilet paper. It should unroll from the top, people, not underneath!

Avengers: Age of Ultron Fun smash em up movie. I had to break it up over two days to watch though.

Maybe we can make this thread into a Festivus Airing of Grievances. You know what grinds my gears? Chicagoland morning and afternoon commute times. Seriously. Everyone get off the road but me!

Couldn't have said it better myself.

Aw man, now our Parisian criminal adolescent genius is leaving! Tis a rough start to a Tuesday.

Nah, probably just a case of me being overly cynical.
