In Toronto there is a Rogers Center, and then they recently opened a Rogers Arena half way across town, and there are also roger's X in Vancover and Ottawa. It's just as annoying as it sounds, made more annoying because rogers is one of the most hated companies in the country.
The most credible source I find credits it to an article by German satirist and journalist, Kurt tucholsky who was supposedly quoting a French diplomat in 1925
Of course it'll be awhile before anything like that, this is just one engineering problem solved. But self driving within a confined space like a parking lot (especially a parking lot that doesn't normally allow humans) is a lot easier to solve than the general case. I think you'd see adoption happen first with fleets of cars or buses, before it would become common place for just regular stuff.
Physical connections are really rough, they require millimeter precision, Tesla has been trying to do this for ages
Not having a cable unlocks some interesting potential. Right now an inconvenience of driving an EV is that the chargers may be full and inconsiderate people may leave their car plugged in for longer than needed. Take away the need to plug in and add some self driving and you could have your car automatically charge then move itself to a regular spot once it's done. Could make a setup like this a lot more simple.
Yeah that's a deal breaker for me too. But the flexible and non-full time hours could make it an attractive side hustle or student job. Good luck getting anyone senior though.
Remember that there's big polluters of the world want you to believe its all already over and that you can't win. This is a strategy they explicitly employ, and you are not immune to their propaganda.
Nah someone could potentially pick up the book and read steal it. The proper way to respectfully buy a book is to burn the book itself and stick the empty sleeve on display to give the publisher the ad they deserve.
It doesn't change the amount of jizz but the original count of grandparents is making the almost certainly false assumption that the family tree is incest free.
If Linux gets popular the mega corps will just follow them there and then you'll be asking them to uninstall Dell os or at least remove the Linux recall (powered by bing) that it comes bundled with. Just look at the modern state of android.
That might make immigrants (and people) in general leave less, but I don't see how that would make high skilled immmigrants leave less than low skill immigrants, which is what the report is measuring.
Highly educated and skilled immigrants are the most likely to leave Canada within five years of landing, according to a new report commissioned by the Institute for Canadian Citizenship (ICC).
Isn't it sort of obvious that the immigrants who are most desirable are most likely to move around? I don't see that as a solvable problem and while I can't find numbers I'm pretty skeptical that other developed countries look any different but I wasn't able to find comparable stats.
In Ontario we have the poor man's eurotrip
