The difference between FAA/FDA and DMV is that they have subject experts whose jobs is to test and evaluate the technology. DMV consists of bureaucrats that seemingly just rubber stamp the permits hoping for the best. In that context,

Every car maker that makes car in US without union labor is fighting the union provision: Toyota, Honda, BMW. Why are you singling out Musk? And for the record: the last version of the bill is $7.5k + additional $4.5 if made by union. Car m

I would like that too but probably wont happen. There are 3 big reasons for large Go binaries. 1. Unicode data is ~1 MB. It's needed to implement all the unicode-aware string functions like strings.EqualFold() 2. reflection. For reflec
