   It was nice homage to what they were ripping off, I mean modernizing.

   - Lidar and visible light both use EM radiation, just different wavelengths, coherence and active v. passive - Passive sensors have huge range, power and deconfliction advantages - The better system is passive sensors in superhuman waveleng

   Once went to a Chinatown repair shop for drive mounting rails and screws. Guy shrugged and gave 'em to me free.

    I see what you're saying, but the P3D's speed was top left on the screen, felt like a non-issue. Maybe driving it longer I'd feel differently, was a test drive.

    I’ve driven a P3D and it was fine. Currently driving a Toyota which also has speed in center. So do Minis.

    No, the large touchscreen should be single point of vehicle config for most functions. Driving a car right now with totally different screens, controls and designs for audio vs. car settings and it’s nuts.

    Yep. Broad world model, physics, common sense, human communication, prediction, reasoning. Waymo’s low-level stack on hi-res map rails can’t replace human drivers.

    Most radars aren't coherent like laser, beams spread out. Also radar measures speed more accurately than location. Lidar only used by R&D + taxi services, price not reasonable for car buyers yet.

    False positives from road signs, overhead signs, radar-reflective trash. Commonly used radars have limited vertical discrimination.
