I can get that far; the site isn’t responding beyond the point in that capture.

Self-driving cars without a safety driver haven't been approved to operate in LA yet, nor on Bay Area freeways, nor anywhere that the speed limit is above 30mph; I think it's clear they won't get their approval to drive in su

I feel unsafe any time cars are involved, whether I'm outside, a passenger, or driving. Cars are much more dangerous than a lot of things people worry about. I'm very happy to see computers making them much safer. > machine dr

Where can I follow along with the latest data on disconnect rates?

Ah, then a fair question to ask might be how confident Kyle is that there won’t be an at-fault crash in the first million km driven. (Or even better, what he predicts will be the distance driven per serious at-fault crash.)

On a scale of 1 to 10, how confident are you that you'll never kill someone while you're driving?

In a typical year, NYC's human-driver taxis had a fatal-or critical-injury crash rate 3x the overall US average: https://www.ingberprovost.com/how-often-do-taxis-crash/ The US average is about 36,000 auto-caused f

Let's say, for the type of journey you need to do (e.g., traveling within a city at <= 30 mph in clear daytime weather), the AVs in question have provided over 100 passenger-years of service, and across that dataset, at-fault crashe

If, after a year of testing, autonomous taxis prove to be exactly half as dangerous as human-driven taxis, would you ride in one?

This is what people once said about elevators, airplanes, bicycles… How mad would you have to be to keep riding in human-driven taxis after the data shows AVs to be safer?

What would be your plan if a taxi driver went berserk and did that? What makes you believe the autonomous car is more likely than a human driver to do that?

What data is Google selling access to that doesn’t involve the clicking of ads?

It's a big backpedal from "Google sells your data to advertisers" to "Google allows advertisers to target groups with particular interests, and in the extremely unlikely event that they guess what group you're in

The Economist is a British publication, and in British English, "for ever" means without end, whereas "forever" means without pause.

Please don't end your comments that way. I had already upvoted your comment halfway through but then on personal principle had to flip it to a downvote.

Right: if you're the target of this piece, the Internet probably isn't the cause of your emptiness; it's how you're filling/numbing it. In previous generations, you'd just be a crazy cat person or alcoholic or

Mods, might I suggest striking everything after "Apple unveils new iPad mini"?

All this sarcasm is getting confusing. Can you just clearly state what you're insinuating?

Wait, even the YouTube playthrough video died?

True; we use a measuring spoon anyway to scoop 1 tsp into the box and 1/2 tsp to spill. (Turns out you don't need anywhere near what the box size suggests, and that can actually cause the drain to get gunked up with foam.)

I've got a cheap chef's knife from the restaurant-supply store — I think it was $30 — and have been dishwashing it exclusively since 2009, and it's totally fine. https://i.imgur.com/tL699FA.jpg

They didn't mention the most important tip: Most dishwashers draw from the hot water tap and then use the first ~gallon that comes out for the crucial first scrub, regardless of what temperature comes out the pipe. Thus, you'll ge
