it's very easy to enter wrong numbers on a calculator, but you need some basic reasoning and familiarity to know when an answer is off, and you need to start over

Somebody gained a job programming and servicing that mow-bot; maybe even a whole team. Maybe the original driver wrote the path and manages it now.

I get the sentiment, and agree that there's value in keeping labor jobs reserved for people who need them, but using automation isn't inherently evil.

When my company moved our production operations to automatic lines and robots, they promoted everyone to machine operators, taught new skills, and paid out more. It may not be the way every company handles the change, but it can be done, and it's a better path forward than forcing people to accept a life of hard labor.

Although it is not a snake, it has been called various common names in the media such as "penis snake", "man-aconda", and "floppy snake", owing to its visual similarity to the human penis.[9][10]

first off, thank you, Wikipedia, for including "man-aconda" in its cited terms. really going the extra mile.

but also, it's wild that thing isn't even a snake. just another limbless amphibian with unknown breathing mechanisms, hiding in the rainforest. way cooler than I thought.

true, and this situation is a PR mess now, no matter how they try to spin it. I'd be amazed if their profits don't take a hit this fall.

incoming students are now forced to face the knowledge of what these schools contribute to the war machine, and it's up to them to decide if they can have that on their conscience.

it's just a banana, Michael. what could it cost, like $10?

there's a word for that... terrorism.

also follows with their sense of extreme conservatism, religious fundamentalism, and anti-globalism/hyper nationalism
