Why?  San Francisco could see a swarm of driverless cabs.  Granted it's risky to be a cab driver in SF, but driving in a sea of driverless cars is really risky.  This is a bad solution to a real problem.  Maybe this is why some people are crazy about this idea.  A vast surveillance network!

Bad news for Asians.  I've been wondering about this. Although UNC is forbidden to discriminate against Asians for admission, because it is a state university, Harvard is private, so it's not really bound by the SCOTUS decision.  Asians care more about getting into Harvard, so there's clearly more work to be done.
