A lot of videos get posted later without context. FSD keeps getting better and better but that context is lost when you just see a few close calls. Twitter, this site and Facebook then amplify a false narrative.

Vision seems to be working pretty well for them. I don’t see them changing course. FSD keeps improving.

Tesla can produce depth data from vision. A few years ago they couldn’t but they have been since early 2021 I think.

Vision only is probably better than mixing different sensors. Radar brings a whole other set of issues. BMW and other driver assist systems with radar all have a class of failures related to the detection of stopped objects when traveling a

Bias in training an AI like they are talking about are the least of the problems we will have to deal with. Facebook creating news bubbles and same with YouTube and all the other apps we use is far more dangerous use of AI. The amount and r

This is an ad blog post by a VPN company against their competition. But the points it makes are all very true. You shouldn’t trust VPN companies. They all seem super sketchy.

This is soooo obvious. Don’t use these free or discount VPN products. You don’t know who is running these operations.

You cant exercise away a bad diet and too many carbs. You can eat 500 calories incredibly fast compared to how much exercise you need. Just don’t eat. One meal a day or OMAD. It isn’t that hard. Anytime I find myself getting a little chunky

VCs are now demanding real revenue these days. Same for public companies. You can still be losing money but as long as there is real revenue growth then it works. Eyeballs or app installs isn’t enough anymore. That’s why I don’t see a crash

Tesla is moving into heavy battery manufacturing. If there isn’t car demand they can put those batteries into power walls and utility power packs or Semis. GM is just focused on cars. Tesla is targeting 200GWh+ of batteries in 2022 just fro

The way the metric is designed is dumb so they do their testing elsewhere. It is a California rule. Basically if you wanted to game the metric you could just drive an autonomous car around a circular track and have no disengagements. But an

Stop raising money. Each time you do that you increase the pressure on the site to make more money to earn the valuation. If the company is valued at $6B today then it probably needs to get to at least $18B valuation in two years. How? By t

Keep in mind that “inflation” as defined by the fed doesn’t count food, energy and asset prices. Who can live a day without eating food, using energy for driving or powering appliances and finally paying for a place to live. Basically I pai
