    There's always some new technological panacea around the corner that's supposed to keep us from getting old or make our lives better. A big one lately is driver-less cars. I suppose that people imagine themselves to be shitposting or even sleeping during their commutes but if driver-less cars become common, I figure this is a pretty unlikely outcome. What would actually happen is you'd be expected to use the internet, your free hands and your free attention to turn your car into a tiny mobile cubicle and to get work done while on your way to the office. Those who do this would certainly outperform those who don't, that's the way these things work.

    So how excited are you about driver-less cars?

    no idea why you think that would happen. Companies are free now to define the time for work and quantity of work, they don't need the driverless car to do it.
