This would make total sense if the entire world were under one tax system. Taxing corporations is a way of of taxing the dividends of shareholders outside your country, whose income you can't tax individually.
Having just driven from Dallas to LA, I can speak for this concept. You simply can't avoid traffic waves, from an individual perspective.
Autonomous cars will solve this someday, but this simple idea seems like it could work. I'd like to see how it works when some drivers have the tool and others don't.
So what he can do in the video is not exactly revolutionary. But none of those techs can live up to their potential without this kind of experimentation and integration with each other.
It's not the next Tesla, but I'm glad to see someone taking these technologies seriously, even when they have some work ahead of them.
The difference is that people in relationships feel guilty shopping around. I know many people with jobs who keep one eye on LinkedIn in case they see a great opportunity.
Which is weird because the great opportunities are based on recommendations almost only. Someone pulls you somewhere, you pull someone to you. You match a friend with another friend in trouble.
I have yet to see (in IT) someone that get great job by the standard interview process.
Also not all persons in a relationship feel guilty of that.
True, and a non-class-minded non-critical mind might take just that away from it, but I think it's really apparent that they are skirting the entire perspective (of what happens to a probably larger swath of youths) -- they "broke the rules" and got away with it, which enabled them to go on to success.
To take it even farther (because this wouldn't be the internet if I weren't trying to one up everyone including myself):
Stoners have great ideas, some stoners go to jail for petty posession 3 times and do not get much of a chance at life after being incarcerated. I don't think I need to point out which stoners end up going to jail, and which get a slap on the wrist and get to smoke on a college campus later.
I'm really not trying to enrage anyone -- I just think this article was super unbalanced
I can't upvote this enough. I know about a lot of behavior that occurs inside and outside of private high schools that goes unchecked or loosely-punished, instead of resulting in police action at most public schools (poor or not). Nothing against the more privileged kids--I don't think a lot of the "troubling" behavior listed in the article is all that problematic (barring shoplifting and assault of course).
You also need 1) the resources to survive some bad outcomes early and 2) the profile of an otherwise low-risk person, which helps mitigate a lot of close calls and a few additional bad outcomes.
I don 't believe it's 'lack of moral compass' for this equation. It's such a tricky pot. What would this missing moral compass entail? drugs, privacy, sexual morals?
I would argue that a stronger internal sense of morality helps one find these cracks in the system to become entrepreneur.
A lack of moral compass would mean one would do whatever it takes without bounds to achieve the desired outcome. NSA, Crack Dealers,
A strong internal moral compass would let someone think it's not a bad thing to grow pot and sell it(George Washington), protect their wealth during hyperinflation with bit-coin (Argentina, Greece), Bring cheep education to the masses (OCW, Schwartz).
I think the idea you are looking for is: socially suggested morals. But the 'troubled' kids are smart enough to question what they see, open enough to imagine a better way, stubborn enough to not listen to nay-sayers without good arguments.
This is also using a fairly new engine, the Merlin 1-D http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merlin_1D#Merlin_1D. It is designed for mass production, using nearly 50% fewer components than the 1-C, and it seems to be flying great! Can't wait for the next launch!
