If Oracle pops, does this affect the WBD/Paramount/Skydance deal?
Tim didn’t really resign/retire. They promoted him to Chairman.

Robots can work well in warehouses. Amazon’s have been a success, for example. This just sounds like whomever WalMart hired to design this didn’t know what they were doing and Walmart got screwed. Maybe they tried to automate the wrong tasks, or leaned too heavily on the sales pitch of “AI magic” rather than understanding what they were buying.
The article also mentions Kroger’s failed dive into automation. From what I can find online, the automation worked, but it was a flop because it was expensive and underutilized — it wasn’t worth the money spent because it was focused on filling online orders that dried up.

Sounds like a class action. Some corporate buyer or school will probably sue. I predict the judgement will end up being a coupon for $100 off one of the new googlebooks.
So I looked into this and you are right and I am wrong. Deleting my previous posts since there’s more to this case than just haptics.
How is this good news? Haptic feedback has existed since the 1970s. This patent should be invalid.

This is a good point. You lose existing users through attrition. How do you attract new subscribers to a site they cannot see?
They could leave the front top 50 posts of the day available as an attractor. With a “sign up to see more” banner at the end of the scroll. Is current leadership smart enough to do that?
