- eru 2y agoAlas, that doesn't really work, if catastrophic failure also harms innocent bystanders.

- nradov 2y agoHumans have always needed to be aware of their surroundings. Plenty of pedestrians were hit by horse-drawn vehicles before cars were even invented.

- vel0city 2y agoHaving my children die because someone's poorly maintained octocopter broke down and flew into the side of my home isn't "natural selection against stupidity". It's like you think the only victims of drunk drivers are the drunks themselves.
- samatman 2y agoI, too, imagine a person in my head, and then immediately wish that they die in a terrible accident, possibly taking innocent lives in the process, because I decided I don't like the imaginary person I just created. In my head.
