Also in Europe most countries require you to attend some driving school, pass a test that's not a joke and abide to the traffic regulations. Neither of this applies to the scooter riders and it shows.

There are people who respect F (M) for engineering chops? Interesting. To me they more look like "that's how not to do things" than the opposite.

There is no AI. ChatGPT is a glorified and hyped Markov chain generator with zero understanding what's it is doing.

Stop sign has a unique shape for the reason. Humans would recognise it by shape only – and that's the reason for it being unique. Even if it is covered in snow, you know that's it is the STOP sign. Similarly, the bottom-up triangl
