Why have police? Why have firefighters? Why have EMS?

> pot calling the kettle black with that snarky little comment of yours

Well I saw what you wrote before it was flagged and the irony of this statement will be beyond anyone else reading this now.

that’s life for you. do something, look stupid, get laughed at, shrug.

i usually don’t care about the opinion of people on a computer nerd forum, but i felt the need to yell at them.

I do realize it’s hypocritical of me to call them out for calling me out for making snarky comments, but the best part about being human is hypocrisy.

Seems more like that thing where an asshole somehow thinks its everyone else in the world that's an asshole, but it has just really been them the entire time.

So why pretend like you wouldn't have taken the job in the first place?

Because when I got hired at Google, they gave me a choice of several different teams to join. I was naive and didn't ask the right questions.

And?

Doesn't sound different than most of the neighborhoods in Brooklyn

>Advertising is just companies saying "This is what you can purchase from me - it's awesome - please consider purchasing it". I have managed hundreds of millions in ad spend for major brands

Oh, okay. Well if you say so.

>The earlier ones hit a crane which one could argue was an edge case as a temporary structure.

I would expect them not to fly into any kind of structure. That they'd hit a crane is pretty insane considering what the results of something like that could be.

Zero? I think the expected number of collisions can be larger than zero. Jimmy Johns sandwich delivery by bicycle has resulted in more collisions than zero and that is arguably safe.

You are setting an impossible standard.

I would expect the result to be the same as running into anything else: drone and any payload crash into the ground.

Drones are lightweight, they're not going to do much to heavy machinery. Basically the same as a brick wall.

The real fear is propellers hitting a human. The result is not good at all.

They weigh 80-85lbs and travel at speeds of around 50mph.

The impact would be quite serious, if they crash at speed but even falling on a car or a human would be quite serious, possibly deadly, even if the propellers don't spin.

Also drone and payload falling to the ground from any kind of height could cause serious injury or death if it falls on someone.

Which is the argument against flying cars. Uncontrolled flying car crashes over populated areas could be catastrophic.

Easy, don't walk near buildings then! /s

I expect some kind of automatic drone parachute system to develop.

I think parachutes take more height to work properly, compared to building heights.

Maybe if they fly at much higher altitudes for most of the flight.

When a computer programmer finally discovers English.

>This sounds like YouTube taking actual steps to improve the situation.

Maybe if they actually did any of those things...
