Every generation has its psychopaths and psychopaths tend to pursue power. I wouldn't put my hopes in millennials any more than in boomers. I'm happy to be wrong on this though.
I feel this is just painting a target on self driving cars for luddites.
If the autopilot without turquoise lights does something dumb, the driver is just another idiot, oh well. If the autopilot with turquoise lights does something dumb, all self driving cars are the devil.
It's a fair argument, but at this point, I suspect China would push back given their relationship with India isn't the best. The major powers also probably don't want to destabilize South Asia seeing as India's rival has nukes and would feel extremely threatened. Idk I may be wrong.
I didn't know India was offered! After some reading (skimming) the US offer in 1950 was to replace China, but Nehru didn't want to stir up controversy. The Soviet offer in 1955 might not have made any headway, but I'm not sure why that's the case.
If the arm in the picture could bend, the magnet would just stick to the front bumper
What if the magnet was of similar mass to the truck? Assuming it could be made to balance, maybe this actually might work to move the truck such that it meets the magnet in the middle. Then the arm could slide the magnet upwards to detach, reposition it, and repeat. Of course, there are much better ways to make a truck move, but maybe it could work?
You know, this might actually taste good...
