If you're gonna leave the big two, why would you go for a closed source system where they can (and do) commit the same crime against user freedom?

My god, from this video I learned two things: - Tesla's vision only approach seems a lot more competent than the Lidar suites from smaller Chinese makers. Perhaps I misjudged how necessary Lidar was to achieve safe driving. - Virtually

20 years is not enough. If you just look at the past 20 years, the US has had exceptional returns compared to the rest of the world. The thing is, historically, high PE ratios like what we're seeing in the US do not correlate with shor

You could just buy deep out of money SP500 puts expiring in 1+ year. That way you would be "insured" against the bubble popping. The thing is, every dollar you spend on insurance is a dollar (and its interest) you lose. Furthermor

People like you are why we are living in an increasingly lower trust society, with for example having items behind locked door in shops. Reminds me a bit of the shopping cart theory.

Right up with the crypto scam that followed it. Great. In case you didn't know, the creators of Birds aren't real rug pulled and stole millions with their crypto coin.

This feels like a thought exercise rather than an argument. By your logic, it's impossible to prove that a car is driving at 60mph. There could be an error in the speedometer which makes it impossible to verify that said car is going a

Maybe I'm autistic, but I loooove the sharp edges near the opening. They've become almost a nervous tick of playing with them with my fingers. I've got no idea why, but the sharp feeling is amazing.

The comments on El Reg's article are... not the types of comment that will further the discussion of onshoring manufacturing.

For me it's the opposite. I am a bit surprised that inflation halved buying power since 2000. In my mind those level of interest usually come from the stock market or house appreciation, but I guess those are much faster (I seem to rec

And yet we are a lot more globalized than in the 1970s. Ressources can be diverted at a much quicker rate with a lot more agility.

How is that different than a human writing the code? Whether an AI or a human wrote it, I would expect the same bar of validity/maintainability.

I think a good portion of their sales have been ideological in nature. Back when it came out, Apple was starting to add firmware locks to more and more components like the battery and the rest of the industry were getting worse and worse if

What a rancid comment. The first thing you can think of when seeing someone earnestly sharing their learning process, is to insult them of being vain.

Wouldn't source that this is happening in 1 of the member states be enough to raise alarms? Why do all of them need to for you to consider this an issue?

Those are some serious qualifications and the linked article shows quite a few examples, but I would still like to be shown data instead of a appeal to authority. Maybe I'm just used to high quality reporting on the subjects I read lik

That used to be the case, but modern Toyotas have a lot of problems with their engines. This doesn't inspire confidence in the brand's overall quality. Add the fact that EVs are a lot simpler, and I don't really see the reaso

From what I've seen, it's simply an aversion to mass scale surveillance, even in public setting. The worry being how easy it could slide into a tool used by the state for nefarious purposes (punish political dissidents, etc).

For me the longer software support would play a role in my decisions. The M1 MBA will probably lose support in 4-5 years whereas the Neo has a longer road ahead. Combine that with the enormously improved single core performance (which matte

I think the downvotes come from the friction of the language used and the lack of sources to back the claim. If you linked some stories, it would add some weight to the statement.

While that's a funny thought, recently I stumbled across a sobering website [1]. This website lets you zoom in on the Ukraine-Russia battlefront and place Polymarket bets on land being taken by Russia. We may be closer to big private c
