I'm also interested in this. I've been looking to understand the mechanics of financial markets and I don't know where to start. In particular, I'm really curious about ETFs/mutual funds and what exactly happens &qu

I’ve heard Google considers (considered?) their infrastructure prowess as a secret sauce. Could it be that they didn’t want anyone else to benefit from it? They had years of headstart on most infrastructure technology that’s ubiquitous now,

Uber hit the person because they had disabled automatic emergency braking, not because the sensors failed to detect objects.

There are a lot of people out there who think Tesla FSD is close to completion, even on HN. What’s wrong in showing the reality of where Tesla stands in terms of a safety critical technology using real world footage? There are anti-{FB, Goo

How are you claiming this? There are tons of research publications from the likes of Google, Facebook etc. Does Tesla ever publish AI/ML research?

And Tesla will just ingest large amounts of data from their fleet and magically dump an L5 solution one day? That's believable? Elon Musk has been promising imminent L5 self driving every year for the past 7 years; that requires more t
