Sure it’s laggier but with dedicated silicon that’s a non-issue. Fact is vision is more than adequate. And lidar is literally blind.

Sure, but if you’ve got the processing it’s pretty easy.

Does lidar have anything to do with the redundancy?

Correct, business and finance.

This comment shows no understanding of business or finance. For example, Uber prints money on non-pool rides in mature markets.

To each his/her own. I know very few people who could get anything useful done at a coffee shop. "I get to meet neighbors, plug myself into my local community, and sometimes even make small talk with cute girls." can all be d

It has a specific meaning if you are anti-Tesla. Otherwise, not. And definitely not on Twitter.

I was not suggesting “twitter ha ha”. I meant “twitter where a 2 word phrase could mean something like: i think I can get the deal done based on conversations with my board and interested financiers”.

While Slack's IPO is very unique, it is indeed raising money. Uber & Lyft book driver incentives as marginal costs but that's about it. Of course they are all software companies.

With pretty much anyone, you get the whole package. Do you want PayPal, Tesla and spacex or do you want more discrete tweeting from Elon?

He said “considering”. And funding secured just meant he had discussed it favorably with financiers.

Also insanely effective and insanely cheap.

Uber revenues minus cost to operate Uber car service = $940 million in 2018.

Your question exhibits a lack of understanding of 1) IPOs (they are fundraising events) and 2) software (zero marginal costs = massive leverage). Slack, Uber and Lyft can ==EASILY== turn a profit by slowing growth.

Uber had $940 million in Contribution Profit in 2018. It prints money on non-pool rides in mature markets.

https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1543151/000119312519... $940 million in Contribution Profit in 2018 and that does not net out new markets and non-pool rides. So, to re-affirm more emphatically, U

Uber prints money on non-pool rides in mature markets. The losses are all going to fund expansion and single-rider pools.

That's not how boards work. Force what kind of sell (sale?) on him? Everyone knows Apple is workin on a car. The other car companies have so far looked like blind idiots. How does being early lead to "too expensive and less conven

I could go down your list and write false as well. To take the first one as an example of how you are wrong. https://www.regulations.gov/document?D=NHTSA-2017-0037-0037 Model 3 not only the very best results, but by a wider

I read it. Did you? "it is plausible that image-based 3D object detection for autonomous vehicle will become a reality in the near future."

It does seem there is decent demand for Kona EV. Perhaps you were not aware of Tesla's Model 3 which is the same price as a Kona EV and much, much nicer. And not battery constrained.

Continuing to deny something that exists is actually beyond calling it impossible! If you've got some spare time, go read some third party research on how cameras might actually be better. Lidar superiority is a myth. https:/&#x2
