Not as funny as he thinks he is.

Probably won't follow-back unless he knows you. Sorry.
Thank you, Richard. You've cursed us all.

Beyond his misogyny and other awfulness, Watson also fed into the hyped-up fears around in vitro fertilization, or as it was called in 1978, TEST TUBE BABIES!

I think that's broadly true -- a test can signal or demonstrate capacity, rather than being a specific reply to a specific situation. For ex., we're unlikely to see a NK test in the middle of a new crisis with SK or the US. Not because it wouldn't be useful, but because of the reasons listed above.

The link wasn't meant to be comprehensive, only illustrative. And you're right -- a woman passenger is much more likely to be harassed by a human driver.

My point was that dismissing this as just bold pedestrians taking advantage of self-driving car safety features misses a more serious risk.

In other words, it's not so much a problem of "bullying" of self-driving cars as it is the resulting "bullying" of self-driving car occupants.
