Understood, but it's also the case that people frequently cite Stoller as if he's a legitimate analyst like a New York Times or Wall Street Journal reporter with skills and editors, and he doesn't actually understand any of t

I didn’t say nobody should try to solve the problem using lidar, I just said humans are an existence proof that it can be done. Lidar gives you more data, but maybe that data will turn out to be overkill. We’ll find out.

This mostly just demonstrates that the reporter doesn’t know what they’re talking about. ADAS is a term of art that encompasses everything above dumb cruise control, including things like adaptive cruise control or collision detection.

I haven’t seen one on each floor, either, but that’s still not as convenient as one in the room that’s yours so you can run it while you’re out to dinner or overnight while you sleep. It’s shared so you have to plan around it.

It's been a nice kind of fig leaf, but constitutionally the president is the AG's boss, so it doesn't make any sense for the AG to investigate the president. There's an entire branch of government given this power in the

Even this example is terrible, I don't "remote unlock" my Tesla, it's just unlocked when I get close to it. It used to be 95% reliable (not great), but now that they added an Apple Watch app, it's 100% reliable (eit
