That is extremely overliteral.
- perl4ever 7y agoYeah, so how do you decide where it crosses the line? You can interpret it as a metaphor, or very literally. It seems unreasonable to me to interpret it exactly as literally as necessary to make your argument against Tesla the strongest.
- spookthesunset 7y agoGive me a break dude. Tesla’s marketing department knew exactly what they were doing when they called it “auto pilot”. And it wasn’t because somebody there looked up the “literal meaning” of “auto pilot” and rolled with that (though it certainly provides an easy out for their more... dedicated... fans to help defend the company)
- perl4ever 7y agoI'm not a fan, owner, or shareholder of Tesla. I've repeatedly stated on HN that I think PHEVs are the future and not full electric cars. What you think of Tesla has nothing to do with whether 2+2=4. If you don't want to discuss the same thing as another person, then go do something else.
