This is my least favorite trend in new cars. If there aren't any new cars in 10 years that aren't just a giant screen in the center then I guess I'm going to be walking. You can make a modern electric vehicle with actual butt

I'm ok with doing a bit of defensive driving against Teslas or bad drivers in general.

All of that firmware that isn't a self driving autopilot blackbox is probably quite safe. Such as anti-lock breaks and fuel injection timing. I am never going to put my life in the hands of some software doing image analysis using mach

It's just too darn big for its own use case in my opinion. I don't want to bring such a behemoth around with me and when I'm not away from home I have my desktop which I don't have to hold up to use. For the occasional o

I find that part of the reason a book can feel so great is because of the time investment. If you could somehow read Count of Monte Cristo in 5 minutes and absorb all the information I don't think it would have the same impact. So basi

I imagine that all those companies are big enough to have segmented departments that can be determined to be unprofitable by themselves. Amazon made plenty of profit, but they doesn't mean they should keep employing everyone from the A

At least as far as our current understanding of physics it is probably not possible to accelerate an object to the actual speed of light, but who knows if there is some kind of universe hack that we don't know of.

I thoroughly enjoyed Cixin Liu's Three Body series. Even if wildly unlikely I find the idea kind of comforting to existential dread despite it being possibly the worst fate for humanity.

If you are talking about a dark forest then it is more opf the idea that any other sufficiently advanced civilization would simply destroy you as soon as you are known to them rather than attempting to consume any potential resources you ha

Subscriptions forces companies to keep re-inventing the wheel for the 100th time and inevitably break something they may have already perfected. A lot of software doesn't need to do more than it already does.

They aren't the same company so those have little to do with eachother. Amazon could start to go up while Tesla could drop another 50%. Time will tell.

Tesla isn't even the largest manufacturer of electric vehicles and their impact on climate change is not as great as it seems like it should be. Not to mention that launching rockets into space is like driving a million gasoline vehicl

Under no circumstance will I ever let a vehicle I am in drive itself. If you can't nearly mathematically prove the software will function as expected I am not putting my life in its hands. From the sounds of it a lot of it is controlle

Wouldn't it be that way already? The punishment even for the whole extended period of time is still often nothing to big tech. Punishments need to be tailored to those being punished to cause equal effect.

The only example I had previously ever heard of was "an hour" because the H isn't pronounced. As far as I've ever heard it spoken the H in both hypothesis and historical are well pronounced so "an hypothesis" s

I think it is more implying that friends that you have exclusively online are more of psuedo-friends than real friends. Especially if they make no effort to continue communication after you stop using whatever form of social media you were

It doesn't "cost" them that much if they never had that money to begin with. If I give you $10 every month and then I stop for a month that doesn't mean me not giving you $10 cost you $10. People are still living they ar

It's in Twitters best financial interest to moderate their service. If they let it be a free for all with zero moderation beyond illegal content then they will lose all their advertisers and the userbase would leave. It doesn't ev

The only really important aspect here is that he is a bad business man and Tesla and SpaceX had to manage Elon rather than then the other way around in order to be successful.

Nintendo doesn't produce any Pokemon games unfortunately. I'm sure they would be better if they did or at least had some way to oversee the quality of them.

They should really go back to 2D. They have been trying for way too long at 3D to have not figured it out by now with the amount of resources they have. Maybe something 2D-HD like Octopath and the like.

There will be soon if not already, but they won't be accessible without an Asian-specific variant of the device and outside of specific Asian countries.

I'm not even very old, but I refuse to talk to a computer. That is not a real world use-case to me. At best it is a neat gimmick. Cars need buttons, dials, switches or whatever else has some tactile response to being used.

Are the more mainstream car companies just waiting for other companies to make all the mistakes before heavily pushing EVs? Honestly I don't think I'd make the switch to an EV before a well established car company makes one that l

I don't think he actually does anything at Tesla though so they should manage just fine without him. Assuming the company was at all capable of competing which I doubt.

Not only should they get fined. They should also fix the problem.

Do segways have a similar problem or is the vehicle large enough that it can always counter balance your weight?

But without software as a service how will companies expand indefinitely until they bust?

I suspect it is more of the situation like at Twitter. You have a job already and you need to decide whether to quit if Elon acquires your company. You might care more about getting a paycheck then whatever nonsense ensues.
