Fundamentally, if a product can exist without an expensive component, it will beat solution's that contain that expensive component.

Are you a skinny person? I've read people under a certain body% fat can have lower sex drive as the body is signaling to them that they do not have enough nutrients to spare/procreate. Could be made up but sounds like a plausible

Rational according to you I guess. The market has it's own rationality.

You can still call the dealership and have them discount your car and get a software limited version of that vehicle for less.

I mean, for example, you take 5 expert radiologists, and average their assessments when scoring an image, and your train a NN to predict those averaged scores, and with enough data the NN will beat any single selected doctor in accuracy.

It's been proven that using humans as ground truth you can ultimately build a NN off that data which outperforms the humans.

For what? What are you trying to accomplish? Sounds like you have a pretty productive hobby already? Tinkering is very worth while even if you don't 100% complete what you set out to do.

Yeah, my current choices are music in headphones or office noise, neither of which is silence, which is a shame.

We absolutely can make some bets if you are serious.

This book, and "The Case Against Sugar" have been, by far, the two most impactful books in my life in recent years. They've genuinely changed my life for the better.

I suppose I was loosely defining creativity as "ability to generate novelty or novel insight". People call AlphaGo created because he demonstrated a new and novel way to play that has since influenced others. AI Music will eventua

One could say music is also a game with a strict ruleset. Indeed having played the piano for 20+ years now, I often think of how no matter how good I am, I won't invent a new form of music or even style of music, I am limited to the &#

Counterpoint: People will hire you because you have a degree. You definitely don't need all A && B && C. Sometimes being like-able and knowing someone is enough.

Yeah thanks for explaining it to me, I own one. I personally couldn't care less about the interior but I understand some people do. The driving/overall experience to me is night and day when compared to ICE vehicles or even other

Except remember when he slept in the factor for a month straight and worked harder and longer than everybody? No one has put more blood sweat and tears into Tesla than Musk.

by leesec 7y ago
This is a joke right? They make some of the most highly regarded cars of all time. Recently buying one and showing it off almost every single person (30~) was blown away at how much better it was then their car and wanted one in the future.

I talked to the Rivian Engineer this year and he said it would have Level 3 autonomy.

Yeah so I'm not sure what Musk did to you, but the guy has been a very successful CEO in the fact that he's made MULTIPLE BILLION dollar companies.

Would be pretty easy to make a vid showing the acceleration or long range mileage while still overlooking the prototype-esque flaws. I just want more than an overhead shot of it driving through a forest with cuts every half second.

by leesec 7y ago
They have a shell and some technology right now. Has a real person driven one and can confirm it does 410 miles? Or the claimed 0-60? I haven't seen that anywhere and I've been looking, would be happy to be wrong. I get uneasy whe

Nor do they seem to even have a real product at this point. Not that they wont in 2 years, but still.

I just mean that I haven't seen any footage of a Rivian actually being used or doing what they say. There are marketing videos but for all I know that's an F-150 with a new skin. You would assume if they really had something with

They're supposed to go into production end of next year. Given that they haven't even built a working one, I'd say that's optimistic, but I do hope they succeed! We will see how much the extra investment they have is goi
