That is the test of if it was a good vacation or not.

Anyone else watch this series on channel 4? The final part was aired last night. What an absolutely brilliant series. An intelligent script, well acted and directed. Can't wait for the next series

I believe it going to start showing here soon. Could be worth I look.
TV3 here if that helps

I can't see how such unrealistic series can be so good?!
I see humans all around all day long, but no sign of intelligent script, good act, better not to mention the direction...

Sorry to say I found it unspeakably boring. Despite being in the same room last night as a TV showing the final episode, I have no idea what happened in the end.
Regards,

Yes, it was very good; well acted, especially both mums - human and robot! I found myself rooting for the robots over the humans!

I'm watching it on AMC in the USA. Very good so far.

Given the quality of the drivers in my part of the world, I would say that self-driving cars, once perfected, would probably drive more safely than most of the humans.
At the current state of the art, I would be careful about allowing them onto roads with human drivers or pedestrians.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Given some of the drivers round here, perfection isn't required before self driving cars would be an improvement.

When a decision drive by making customer centric morale focused a specific example of your contribution which faced significant resistance from an internal stakeholder.

Could you repeat in plain English please?

Happens all the time.
The sad reality of life is that your appraisal is written by the internal stakeholder and not by the external customer

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, there was a marketing dweeb with no discernible talent or ability; he did however hold a very well paid job.
He felt he needed to justify his existence to the world, and prove his worth to the Company or (in those days of corporate and worldwide downturn) he might be let go, and have to return to living under a bridge with the other hobos.
But (as we have said) he had no discernible talent or ability, so he determined to make it as difficult as possible for anyone to notice. Corporate Jargon was born!
It spread like wildfire - after all, if people had any discernible talent or ability they wouldn't be marketeers - and became the mainstream language of the Business World.
Since then, all decision driven customer centric morale focus has held a specific example of executive contributions will face significant resistance from internal stakeholder when it is run up the flagpole to see if anyone saluted.

Yes, when someone posted this on a forum:
