I have a buddy who picked up some HP ML150 G6's. He's offering me 1st crack. They come with dual Xeon quad core's, 48 GB RAM, 6 2TB SATA drives.
They all startup and run. Currently they have desktop OS's. I checked all the logs and nothing stands out. He wants $500 apiece. I'm really thinking of grabbing them just because. I want to put XCP-ng on them.
At $500 apiece, I'm thinking that i could do worse.

And even if Uber is not legally at fault, critics may ask whether the vehicle could have done more to anticipate the possibility that the woman might step in front of the Uber vehicle and take appropriate defensive measures—perhaps slowing down or changing lanes to give her a wider berth.
Would a human driver been able to do this? She abruptly stepped into the path of traffic and got hit. Granted the "speeding" may be an issue but that could also be attributed to the flow of traffic.
There was a human driver. He didn't manage to make a difference.
Human
drivermore like backup?The human was there in the same "accident avoidance" role that they are as a full driver. Just like the computer can be an extra breaking and avoidance system too, when the human is the "primary" driver.
Primary driver -- hands off?

We probably shouldn't mention the sub, sub-sub, sub-sub-sub-contractor issues that have existed in South Florida for several decades.

They are company just south of Racine. It is a good event run at Miller Park. Last year's conference was good, lot's of time to talk with vendors and much like World they have techs on hand to discuss some issues if you want.
One day event, right?
