It’s wildly unrealistic to expect maintenance to fix 100.0% of issues, and to fix them immediately at that. There’s a balance to be struck with on-time performance that will naturally prioritize safety critical maintenance while postponing

I mean, I think OpenAI really opened themselves up to being singled out when they framed this as being about, like, promoting democracy when it’s clearly just a cash grab.

Yes, exactly - my (admittedly very limited!) experience has consistently generated well-written, working code that just doesn’t quite do what I asked. Often the results will be close to what I expect, and the coding errors do not necessar

That'd actually only be about 1-10 gallons, or about 6-60 pounds. Regardless, I'd guess it's probably only <500g CO2.

Well at a high level, ADAS and normal law both basically function as a way to remove the steady state effort of steering, allowing the driver/pilot to focus solely on fine corrections. You can still avoid potholes, overtake cars, etc.,

Think of normal mode more like adaptive cruise control with lane keeping. When everything works, it’s much easier to control the car, but if the data necessary to feed the control laws go bad, the car has to drop back to the regular old gas

Well, 2.3% of the Faculty of Arts & Sciences. I would bet that, say, the business school has a slightly different makeup…

Okay that is very fair. But civil penalties do still likely mean you can claw a good amount of your money back if you catch the fraud quickly enough.

In every deal, there’s a lot of trust involved leading up to closing that neither side is full of shit. Post-close, though, there is just no world in which a scam like this is not going to be (eventually) found out, and obviously there are

To pick one little item, it’s pretty basic knowledge that the left doesn’t just broadly want taxes, we want progressive taxation. Tariffs are regressive.

Yes, and similarly to increase the efficiency of our healthcare system, I suppose doctors should have to get good at also doing their own billing, janitorial, etc.

A car with similar range but a physically smaller battery would be cheaper and lighter; also, faster charging is always nice.

Ha, wow I’ve seen plenty of SAR images from MUCH more expensive systems that don’t look nearly as good. Incredible stuff here.

But the point of an endowment is to have a relatively stable funding stream in perpetuity - if you start dipping into the principal, the funding stream starts shrinking and is no longer perpetual. Harvard’s endowment, for example, already f
