Well, unless you are going to rebut the statement, I don't see the point. If you are just basing your point of view on the widely reported Tesla crashes, you might want to look up some actual safety stats. Crashes of human-driven cars

When I read stuff like this I feel a huge disconnect from the modern world. I have never enjoyed social media other than HN. It all seems like a vapid waste of time. Sometimes I start to scroll Instagram to see what I'm missing out on,

I said marketable features. Outside of HN's demographic, the number of people who even know what an SAE level is would round off to zero.

"Stop-and-go traffic on highways" is quite a narrow usage scenario, isn't it? At least in a lot of highway driving in UK, FR, DE, CH, I find this mostly only happens with major events or roadworks, and even then it's for

The vehicle is not capable of more than 60 km/h when used in self driving mode, so the reasoning seems quite logical. I wouldn't want to use this on the Autobahn though; everyone would be overtaking constantly which introduces add

Maybe they don't design their roadmap around arbitrary level numbers but instead around marketable features.

Europe is quite diverse in this respect. Italy for example has many highways that I would be terrified to let autopilot try to navigate merges on.

Your comment is predicated on the assumption that FSD (the actual system installed in the car, not a future theoretical perfect system) is safer than the average driver in the situations where Mercedes currently disables it. I'm not su

The user is zooming because what they see is not legible to them. If Figma can't work out how to handle that, that's Figma's failing.

To be fair, if those attributes had never been standardised it wouldn't need to be a user agent concern. But I agree, all browsers should follow Safari's lead and ignore them.

IMO, all browsers should ignore these attributes. The browser is a tool of the user, not the website designer.

Perhaps, but it also seems intuitive to me that people who choose to (/ have the opportunity to) leave a country (i.e. immigrants) may not be representative of that country as a whole.

I'm guessing you're in the US? Haven't had any problems with IPv6 on ISP-supplied routers in UK, NL, DE, CN, HK, VN, TH, SG over the last 10y or so, seems like a solved problem for most of the world.

if you look how that works it usually rejoins the main drain above the trap. so if the clog was lower than that it wouldn't help. a well-designed hotel bathroom should have a separate floor drain though.

Yes, exactly, although I personally don't see how a substantive post, responding to a well-discussed issue from the previous day, could possibly qualify as "spam". I guess others agree, since the post did not remain flagged.
