Consider the following: the year is 2020, and you are traveling in a self-driving taxi. Suddenly, five pedestrians step out in f

ront of the car and the only way for it to swerve is into a nearby tree. There is no time to stop so if the car hits the tree you’ll be fatally injured. Alternatively, if the car continues on its current path it will injure all five pedestrians. Should the car prioritize minimizing the loss of life, even if that means sacrificing the passenger, or should it protect the passenger at all costs? Explain and defend your answer. Would you ride in such a car?

Answer:

There are two different solutions.

Explanation:

If you are a selfabsorbed person who cares little for others you will hit the 5 people and blame it on the car and say it was not your fault it is a self driving car and there was nothing you could do. If you are a compationite person you will go and hit the tree and say you rather hit the tree then 5 people hoping the crash would not kill you.

Hi guys what is a railway cottage and how would you analyse railway cottage<br> Thank you
prisoha [69]

Answer:

railway cottages" are small workers' houses, originally built by railway companies for their employees (most likely in Victorian times). They tend to be near railway stations (but not in them) and railway lines, not surprisingly, and may even have a street address such as "3 Railway Cottages". They will all have been sold off on the private market, in most cases a long time ago, or bought up as social housing by local governments, so anyone may now live in them.
