Bro, I don't care what this article is trying to sell you. Science is never cheap. It is awesome that these scientist figure out some creative way to cut cost. If everyone is starting to do this on the large scale, the human civilization will stop developing.

Just by reading the headline, I thought robots are starting to rule to world.

I think most professional tech worker they are trying to hire would be able to afford a round trip ticket and travel expenses to New Zealand.

If they come up with this 5 years ago, it will be EPIC...

Is it running fortran? Which version?

So it is not made in AMERICA? I think they underestimate the patriotism of blind people.

Their team doesn't look too diverse to me. Not a good culture fit for silicon valley.

I personally feel sorry for people who need to buy their clothes at these places. But I guess they don't have other options? I am not sure how they live their lives.

I know some folks here probably lead you to YC. But I am currently building something with my saving as a developer. If I got my prototype right, I will call my richest auntie.

40% of US students in the US have no close American friends on campus too. We all went to college. Come one. That is how it is. I wouldn't call the dude saying hi to me everyday the room next door ma friend. They are all just living around me. We all have to pretend to be nice to each other because none of us wants trouble. Sure we do hang out or get drunk at the party. But we are not friends. The only true friend I got is my college sweet heart.

No matter what we do it will never wipe away your prejudice, my friend.

"Delhi of India has banned disposable plastic"

What is interesting here is that Jewish are the selected race to be protected on youtube. Some other ones don't qualify. Youtube is so old testament.

man i can smell the 200 west from you 1000 feet away. F9 all the way to the ferry.

You may look at the percentages of each ethnic groups studying cs or even STEM before pointing fingers to enterprises. There is no discrimination on choosing majors. And college kids don't go to classes anyway, no matter how racist your professors can be.

Yeah, americans are so exceptional. We can teach the high school drop outs and English majors to run the tech giants. And all the inferior foreign competitors will still be bowing over and witnessing the mighty angels dancing glamorously for their final judgement. USA! USA! USA!

If you don't know how to speak Korean, go back to your own country.

Yeah, now he just needs to squeeze his future wife and possible children into a 500 sqft studio. I am glad he sorted out everything.

Poverty is poor people's own problem to fix. I am not against better social benefits. But I don't live in dreams either.

I've known some 1% commuting 3hrs round way. Just because the "aren't shitholes" area could be really far away. Plus after tax 600k will turn into 350k.

I am talking on a GDP basis.

This is a capitalism country. We reward individuals who are rich. What is wrong with rich kids getting into college? This is the bonus they got from creating more economy growth for the society. And to be honest, the 1% income limit is misleading. The real rich people will laugh at the 1% income threshold. With 1% income in nyc, you can't even raise a family in decent life style.

I was gonna put up something full of sarcasm. Then I realize engineers are the least responsible for enterprise business failure. This could happen to any of us. Company goes under water and job security fades away. Thanks for contributing to the open source world. And best of luck to all of those brother and sister engineers.

overlord is a strong word. As a physics major, I would prefer to be called a tech minion.

This is very exciting. But somehow sad to me at the same time. I don't wanna explain my feeling.

Yeah, I literally laughed when I saw this. I worked at Goldman Ball Sachs for a little while. Tell you what, you will get discriminated by management if you don't have ivy on your resume. I have had a md talking straight to my face that he thinks I am lucky to get this job because the people around me all graduated with a phd from Havard, Princeton and Yale. I don't even give a shit.

Yeah, this almost got me. Until I start to see a bunch of 3-7 years olds making 6 digits. I have no idea toddler modeling could make this much.

Me: Mom, y didn't you sign me up for this?

Mom: Cuz you never asked for it...

Me: Uhhhh, I was little. I barely knew anything.

This is something I simply cannot agree with. People are using ROBOTS.TXT for all kinds of reasons, such as blocking unwanted careless webcrawler or indexing single page application. I mean come on. How can you say something like that just because eliminating ROBOTS.TXT would potentially benefit your business.

Yet another JVM language. YAJVML

Same here. Sometimes i think this might have been a click bait for marketing purpose.
