These days, very few items are individually tagged, unless they're sold by weight and vary in weight, like cheese.Anthonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12389602137217799305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2807403883562053852.post-55945377787570623682016-09-15T15:32:27.630-06:002016-09-15T15:32:27.630-06:00Here we are in 2016 and you can't just search ...Here we are in 2016 and you can't just search that easily.

Several companies are experimenting with driverless cars that could take the place of cab or even Uber drivers. Robots will perform more and more complex tasks. If a robot can design a robot, what jobs will be left? Economists have always said not to fear technology because it really means more new jobs will be available swamping the jobs that will be lost. I think we could be near an inflection point where that will no longer be true.Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02423924859310327055noreply@blogger.com
