Do you have a source for this? Everything I can find is not apples-to-apples - they compare the reliability of a self-driving car under extremely careful and limited conditions, specifically by people who are developing, testing or evaluati

Why would anyone believe a company's claims? I'm not trying to be a jerk, but why would we trust a source who has a vested interest in misleading us? Maybe phrased less combatively: Do you have a source that's not Google (o

You'd have to be out of your mind or staggeringly naive to think this isn't happening. Or is it just a coincidence that the people who are big movers and shakers in areas that shake up government apparently are all rapists and evi

If that were true I'd expect to see something of a continuous spectrum of suck extending from the 1970's to today. But instead it's not like that at all - the bay area is hugely prosperous and happy until the late 2000s when
