Cargo Cult

Thousands of unionized workers at Samsung, the world’s largest memory chipmaker, are striking against the company’s refusal to dialogue. Demands include a 3.5% base rate increase, paid leave for the date of union establishment, compensation for loss of wages during the strike, and transparency into the incentive-based bonus system. The union has about 30k members and represents 24% of all workers within the company. We also discuss driverless taxis, cashier-less bullet purchases, and armless eldercare robots.
