  • I suppose for a large house, $500/mo. is what one would pay for maid service.

    I don’t believe one robot can effectively clean piss from the corner behind the toilet, AND do laundry, AND clean windows, AND dust, AND clean a shower head, AND clean a refrigerator, etc., etc.

    Imagine a robot collecting everything out of a fridge onto a counter, removing the glass shelves, cleaning them, cleaning the inside of the fridge, and then putting everything back without breaking anything, and doing it in 30 minutes. Not happening. Even if it were done completely by remote control, I don’t think it could do it.

    These things are not anywhere close to a replacement for a human, but they’ll keep pushing it.












  • We’re pretty good at predicting simple physical things, like when you let go of an apple, it falls to the ground.

    When we look at more complex systems, like weather, we’re less good at it.

    Predicting general trends among many people works pretty well.

    Predicting what one person will choose to do in any given situation, is far less accurate. It’s just a guess, really.

    To your question, I would never have predicted that Flat Earthers would exist in any number--people who genuinely believe the Earth is flat. I was flabbergasted when I finally realized they weren’t trolling.
