It’s easy to add a few hundred thousand dollars of sensors to a $100 million plane. But $20k on a $40k car is too much and makes it cost prohibitive for most people. If vision alone can get you to say 1 crash in 10 million miles, that’s mor

Tesla does use LiDAR for calibration and testing of their vision systems. But they also have a million cars on the road with radar which also gives fairly accurate depth information. They use the depth information provided by the radar to a

LiDAR is not better in worse weather conditions. LiDAR performance degrades in rain and snow. That’s where something like radar is better. The Tesla get is that humans drive with vision so they should be able to as well. Also every other se

It’s already about 10x. But it is a bit tricky since they don’t break the numbers out by highway and local driving. Also their active safety features outside of AP also improve safety. So does it need to be 4-5x better than an already impro

The Model 3 is priced comparable to a BMW 3 series. The only maintenance you have on them is tires, air filter, wipers, windshield washer fluid, and eventually brake pads. There’s no engine maintenance, no oil changes, no premium gas, no tr

Do you actually hate those things? Or do you just hate the idea of it and think you won’t like it? Unless you’ve opened a Tesla, or rented one for an extended period like a week or two, I’m not sure how you could decide you “hate” something

The build quality is fine. Tesla gets crazy press and gets extra scrutiny whereas others get a pass at this stuff. Also I don’t why you’re comparing it to a Porsche when this article is about Model 3. There’s no Porsche you can buy for $40k

I don't understand this logic. You go into buying an iPhone knowing all of the restrictions they place on it. Why would you buy it and then complain about the restrictions? Just don't buy it in the first place. You can buy one of

Apple does not take a cut of this. It's charged to your existing payment method on file. It's closer to a physical good, since it's an enhancement for an actual physical good.

That's not a reasonable example at all. Netflix doesn't sell Roku another product like in your example with Microsoft, there's only one product at play here. Netflix and Roku both benefit from this relationship. Roku benefits

How so? It is the same thing as advertising. Roku is benefiting greatly from Netflix being on their platform as well. Netflix could ditch Roku and say they only support X other devices. But they both need each other and so they agree to som

It's possible it's not powerful enough for a 4K tv if that's what you have. The Switch does 720p, or 1080p when docked. 4X the resolution is a big difference.

The T2 chip is based on the A10 design but it's not the same thing. The M1 and A14X may also end up being based on similar core designs as well, but the rest of the SoC will have many differences.

Is it really price gouging for bandwidth? Or is bandwidth just really expensive in general? I honestly don't know. I would assume if it was actually much cheaper one of the cloud's would undercut the other to get customers.

You can get a modem with 32 down and 8 up channels. 8 up channels can support over 200 Mbps. But Comcast will still limit you to 5-10 Mbps. Then there's DOCSIS 3.1, which actually supports up to 1 Gbit/s up, but Comcast still only
