Finding money, buying veggies, eating tacos, and walking around.

I would feel much better about self driving cars, if they were "unhackable."

like, little carts attached to the ground or to the side walls or something that slide along down the streets seems like essentially the same thing, and a lot cheaper and you could probably make it super green. (you can even power it by peddling, and people can work as peddlers and they collect the fees.)

This puts some great visions in my mind... I like the idea of peddlers earning the fare. It's like, ohh man I'm hungry, guess I could go peddle around town for a while and have a nice big meal afterwards. Super interesting thought.

ya!! thanks. glad you liked it. I was happy with that thought too when it came to me lol.

it makes a lot of sense to me, like transportation naturally does use man power. not everyone is physically able (or willing) to do it, so you outsource it to the people most willing, and have communal transportation that way. but it's still in harmony with the idea that someone is peddling commensurate to how much transportation there is.

some people worry about jerbs as automation becomes better (which is a misguided concern, but regardless..) and simultaneously worry about the environment. seems like there's a lot of overlap where one actually fixes the other, as long as you're willing to consider big changes.

Interesting. I hadn't thought about that.

The motivation to hack them would just be to cause destruction? Or is there something else to gain too?

I guess kidnapping would be the bigger thing besides just randomly causing crashes. kidnap/ransom. Interesting.

I guess maybe cars just have to go :p
