The specs are not publicly available, but the comparison to their 4th gen lidar is. As you can see in [1], the resolution improvement is massive, which is what the GP was claiming lidars lack. I don't see a "ton of signal to noise

There’s no evidence for Tesla FSD having a better safety record. When they used to report to the DMV, they were still nowhere near Waymo and Cruise. Since then, we all know how “capable” FSD really is. There are tons of videos showing FSD s

It’s not a sidewalk. It’s a railroad track for the VTA train in San Jose. FSD has no idea it’s not a drivable area. Guess what other technology Tesla has shunned that would’ve completely eliminated this issue? HD maps.

Yeah, it seems like Waymo did end up following Levandowski's ideas and didn't try to build their own vehicles. They have the Waymo Driver now, which is supposed to be modular and can be upfitted to different types of cars/tru

FSD is level 2 self driving by Tesla’s own admission to CA DMV. So no, they are not even close to being “full self driving” capable.

Definitely. But just wanted to know if this restriction is self-imposed by Cruise to start cautious or if it’s imposed by the DMV.

by ra7 5y ago
Congrats! Curious why Cruise got a permit to operate only between 10 PM and 6 AM? Is it a DMV decision because you applied for driverless operations or did Cruise specify operating conditions?

Yep, that's a great review. Overall I'm very impressed by the R1T! I'm not a truck buyer, but this bodes well for the R1S which I am interested in.

What data and analysis do you need to say “regenerative braking is useful for off roading”? It’s an opinion by someone who finds that feature useful. What is so hard to believe for you? Off roading requires plenty of start and stop, hence m

It’s right there in the article. The “test drive” the author is talking about is an off-roading event organized by Rivian. There are several videos on YouTube about this event. > Rivian invited me out to Colorado earlier in September to
