Are you proposing that we should filter this article?

The primary threat to salmons (and many other species) everywhere are obstructions (like dams and sluices) in rivers.

It is a pretty good test to find out which people are simply egoistic bastards, who really don't care about others.

Many of them are somewhat stupid, in that they think that it will not affect them personally, and have not really thought about the effects on other people.

But a lot of them are simply anti-social persons, that don't really give a shit about others.

Not all Dinosaurs are dead. I see a lot of them flying around everyday.

The other question of course is how much time will it take to develop the correct hardware and software?

A lot of things that are easy for humans, like object and speech recognition, are still very difficult for machines. It took a long time to develop this. There is no real reason to believe that computers will match this soon.

There is one thing missing from this list that works in some other languages as well: use plurals (groups of people). In general, the words that are used to describe groups are gender-neutral, even when the words to describe the members of the group are not.

Just a simple example. With "nurses" we use "they", "their", "them". With "nurse" you might use "she", "her" and "her", or for a male gender: "he", "his", "him".

This is just a very bad idea.

Trucks are heavy. This means that they have a lot of kinetic energy. This means that they can do a lot of destruction to anything that comes in their way.

Trucks are big. It is very easy for them to block many lanes at once.

We currently don't have any fully automated driving normal cars (And IMNSHO we will not have them in the next decades). The risks with automated trucks are a lot higher than the risk with automated cars, so it makes no sense to start with the trucks until we are certain that we have solved the problem with the cars.

Another important scientific contribution from Alan Turing.

This is an interesting topic, but we can't have a discussion about it when some people cannot read the article.

Many people believe that a fungus is either some kind of mushroom (they are possibly good-looking, sometimes good to eat, and sometimes poisonous) or some kind of mold (which most people regard as something bad).

Fungi (yes that is the plural of fungus) play a very important role in our world. Most higher plants depend on some fungus to get important nutrients from their environment. The first real antibiotic (penicillin) was derived from a fungus. Many products that we drink or eat, like wine, bear and a lot of cheeses, also depend on fungi.
