Steam-powered Robots
Everything old is new again!
Okay, so after two days of depressing news, it’s time for something fun. We’ve been trying to replace human workers with robots for just about as long as we’ve had robots, but progress is slow. “Slow?” you ask. Yes, slow. Robots have been around since the late 1800’s and we’re only now getting close to something that can do everything a human can do.
No, really, robots have been around since about 1865. Don’t believe me? It’s true! I read it on Slashdot!
