Very interesting. I wonder if the robots will be coin collectors after they replace all humans.
Rest in Peace

Silly me. I would not have thought that the volumes involved would justify the cost of automation.

I suppose robots do kind of exhibit OCD when you think about it.

I'm not surprised at all given the lack of available manual labor in the market coupled with San Francisco's already high cost of labor/living. The improved quality is a bonus.

I'd like to see what they do to reduce dust.
