Yeah because it's directed within a specific area. This is a range of emitters over a large area with a large amount of wave diffractions and interactions. I'm not saying it's unsafe. I don't know the energy levels involved or anything like that. Just that it's not necessarily safe, compared to say non-ionizing radiation or magnetic fields.

0.5 resolution is what a standard MRI provides. If it can do that and differentiate hard and soft tissue I will be impressed. The demo images they showed looked nowhere near the required accuracy. They still have a year to get it working I guess. Ultrasonic is very difficult given blood flow and all the associated movement with heart beating and all that. Also, they claim it is safe due to lack of radiation. But ultrasonic can fuck shit up too. I mean ultrasonic is currently used to break up kidney stones, shear and fragment DNA (for NGS prep).

Comment Tesla already perfected FSD (Score 1) 11

FSD has driven me hundreds of times consecutively so far, garage to congested city parking spots, with zero critical intervention on my Tesla. Not just me but look on YouTube etc. you'll see that with version 14 of FSD it's pretty much flawless -- it even handles drive-throughs .. cones/construction zones etc. I'm telling you it's at the point where I'm not sure what more they need to add -- other than accessory features like favorite parking spot memory, parking structure navigation. Someone said it can't see a chain across the road .. never encountered that I guess .. not sure a human could see that either? Note .. FSD is perfected, but Tesla's navigation .. which Google and even Apple solved 10 years ago.. sucks .. but that's because they are refusing to license Google for nav.

Who wants to be booed? Me. I don't give an F about boos or if the world hates me. I care about doing the right thing. I'd give an F only if it were blocking me from doing things. If it's just morons booing me, let them do so until the cows come home (in which case they may want to try mooing instead).

Too many idiots are driven by wanting to be liked. It's an obsolete evolutionary trait.

I have to commend him on powering through his speech during the whistling without giving a fuck .. but it took way too long for Stanford to kick the protesters out. Most too those protesters will go on to work in tech, and all they accomplished by it was screwing up people's graduation experience. I was waiting for parents near them to gather and beat the shit out of them. Probably would have happened if security didn't kick them out.
