On January 1st, 2014, I uploaded the first "Things You Might Not Know" video. Once the initial rush of videos settled down, I aimed for one video a week, and while there have sometimes been guest videos and occasional blatant filler: to my own satisfaction, I never missed a week. But now, it's time to stop.
I never got to space. I never got to the ocean depths. And I never got to fly off into the sunset, harnessed underneath a helicop...

    Similarly, the road itself needs to be a control-system 'actor' with some motor/sensory caps for a more easily achievable robust self-driving... network. Once on an interstate, vehicles would be maintained in separation, through merges, exits and minor accidents, vastly lowering the potential for collisions, thus self-driving development glitches are less risky. Less lawsuits. The tech in the vehicles would not need to be so advanced and expensive, either. As it is, the tech in the car must be so advanced because it is compensating for a difficult open-loop in the control system - a lazy partner.

    How is the energy GENERATED? If it is a dirty source then what is the point? How do you disconnect the fuel tax from the system which is needed to pay for road upkeep? Can these truck lanes be adapted to driverless technologies?

    Enjoy the journey, my friend. Hope to see you again, thank you for leaving the door open.

    Don't shed no tears. The truth is Tom has travelled back in time on 1984, he's now leading the human resistance to stop Cyberdyne Systems from activating the SkyNet. This is his final sacrifice to stop the rise of "Junk zero-effort generative AI channels". Join the resistance, together we can postpone the "Judgement Day".

    The requirement of a driver and maintaining the vehicle vs making the airport larger where planes just pull up to a ramp make the choice obvious. Rule of all business reduce required man power.

    I'd want a temporary "invisible mode", where I can see the people around me, but they can't see me. Would make me feel safer walking alone at night. Then again, that option would get abused - invisible bank robbers and such.

    The terrible risk to the ecocology and economy of the Great Lakes is not worth the measely few million $$$ generated by traffic this canal. Close it and have barges transfer cargo to rail between the rivers and canal. Close this vulnerability before these carp cause an ecological disaster. The Great Lakes are already strugglng due to idiotic Captains flushing bilges full of Zebra mussles and Lamprey into the fresh water of the Great Lakes. If these carp get into the Lakes they will become dead zones. Stop this before a few idiots allow their profit margins to destroy a natural wonder of the world.
