Stödet är svagt för ett fortsatt regeringssamarbete mellan Socialdemokraterna och Miljöpartiet, visar en färsk undersöknings som Sifo har tagit fram åt SvD. Mest kritiska är Alliansens och SD:s väljare, men även Socialdemokrater är kluvna till dagens samarbete.

Nerval's Lobster writes So you've worked on an open-source project, and you want to leverage that experience to move your career forward. In theory, there's no reason an employer should shun your experience, just because you did the project from home on your own time.

When Google introduced its prototype back in May, the company claimed its self-driving cars "won't have a steering wheel, accelerator pad, or brake pedalbecause they don't need them." Apparently, it still has yet to reach that point. The development is an important step forward for Google's driverless car efforts, which have been deemed impractical by many of late. Last year, the Financial Times reported that Google had difficulty finding manufacturing partners that would build vehicles featuring the self-driving capabilities used in its Prius. In that light, maybe Google's willingness to build its own hardware just to get the technology on the road means that its self-driving car team knows something the rest of the industry doesn't."
