Amazon Go: stores with no lines or checkouts, shop and leave
It's not clear yet how many items are using RFID. They say they are using "computer vision, sensor fusion, and deep learning" akin to what is used in self-driving cars.
So there are some concerns if you pickup an item then put it back in the wrong place, will it detect it was still left in the store, or will it charge you? Putting it back in the right spot, refunds you, but it's not obvious otherwise.
We really need to know more from the Amazon employees that are using it.
It sounds a lot like Minority Report style stuff going on, and I think it is more a tech demo than a full concept they'll carry out in mass. The information on the path the customer takes, what they get and all that is probably worth a ton, and helps offset other costs with the system... though most of those costs are offset by having fewer employees... We are quickly reaching what CGP Grey noted in his video *relate=http://videosift.com/video/Humans-Need-Not-Apply where we need less and less people to do the lower end jobs... and those shelves look like they can be filled from the back, which is easier on robots.
The packaging for every item must have an embedded RFID. An idea from about a decade back. One of the worries back then was that people could scan your garbage and learn a lot about you. People probably don't care about that nowadays.
President Trump: How & Why...
Looking back on Pie's take on the Brexit vote may be helpful in light of Trump's. There's good discussion there on how the working class has been getting fucked over by years of trickle-down Reaganomics, corporatism, and austerity have played into the UK's vote on Brexit.
The same groups in the US have chosen Trump over Clinton's faux-left elitism.

By contrast, Keith Oberman lists reasons to be outraged by Trump,

Liberal Redneck - An Appeal to Sanity
OK. I intensely dislike Trump. I think he is a horrible choice for President and completely unfit for the position. But I also don't think his college football example holds up for shit. Football Coach is a profession, "Politician" should not be one. I don't want a professional politician. I want a person that has real world experience so they can understand the real world affects their legislation actually has. But having watched the CGP video, it seems unlikely it will ever happen.
