Not News: Singapore Becoming Smart and More Mobile

Singapore is quickly becoming a smart city/new urbanist's dream. Officials are talking smart lamp posts that provide light, cameras, and maybe data collection.

Some restaurants already feature robot wait staff. I'm guessing they refuse tips.

Driverless pods are being designed to solve the first mile/last mile challenges of transit. These should be on the roads within two years. 

There's a nice ethos here of coordination, transit, and a government embracing change. 

I actually would like to have human waiters and waitresses, even if the service is inconsistent.
