Security is more unsolvable than rocket science, because it's adversarial.

Not interested in using but I'm curious how this will turn out. At present, vaping nicotine is judged almost as bad/evil as smoking - but is it? Also people are much less critical of smoking marijuana than tobacco, which I assume there is some rationale for but seems odd. However, both of these things do make sense if the the biggest problem of smoking really is the drug nicotine.

Assuming the bus' main problem is the lane, and not the intersections (which I think may well be the case).

It was a complete and utter failure. It could not do the job not even a little

Are you going to back that up, or in any way adress my comment? Or will you just insist on posting a stupid comment?

Let me repeat: Assuming data is only send when the function is engaged, and the user is clearly informed before they said data is transmitted. It is legal withing EU data regulations.

We have something we are assuming is pushing stuff away or in some other way continously expanding the universe. And it is slowing down, as if it is now further away, sounds like we now know it is 3D space and weakens over the distance it itself is creating.

Spectacularly?

Footage posted by TikTok user @brahmsstan and obtained by Storyful shows several Waymo vehicles stalled at an intersection in the Mission District neighborhood.

While the Waymo Driver is designed to treat non-functional signals as four-way stops, the sheer scale of the outage led to instances where vehicles remained stationary longer than usual to confirm the state of the affected intersections. This contributed to traffic friction during the height of the congestion.

I dunno man. Even a single traffic signal going out will cause a backup in that intersection even with no self-driving cars, because a 4-way stopsign follows round-robin rules, and the throughput of that is simply much less than a timed traffic signal (which is why they were invented).

I'm not saying Waymo did as well as human drivers would have, but it's kind of hard to tell. Nothing obviously bad happened like the cars losing communications with HQ and going crazy or bricking in the roadway.

OK, but the gas tax was also a tax, and you can raise exactly the same complaints with how it was sometimes spent

I also don't think renting out privately-owned cars will take off anytime soon. For now, the self-driving cars that actually work require expensive commercial-grade sensor packages (unlike camera-only Tesla FSD) and secondly they still need a human overseer for every N cars out on the road, which implies you have a pool of trained and available people on staff.

This is it, precisely. If I could buy a new EV for $12K I would absolutely do that. If buying a new EV means that I have to spend $60K then I am not remotely interested. EV vehicles have some problems that make them impractical as the only vehicle for most families. Those problems disappear completely if the vehicle is inexpensive enough so that it doesn't have to be your only vehicle.

China is currently giving EVs away, we are stupid for not taking them up on the offer. Eventually the U.S. auto market would adapt. I am quite sure that they could also make low margin EVs if they had the right incentive. Let's be honest, the American public would probably be willing to subsidize them as they made the change. However, instead we have rigged the entire system so that U.S. manufacturers are incentivized to only compete in the largest, most expensive, and least environmentally friendly auto markets available. It's no wonder that the rest of the world isn't interested in our cars.

Yeah the UK is almost as unfree as the US.

The US never understood to be liberal, educated, or free. Instead just repeating nonsense propaganda

And you are an anonymous coward but that's a fact not just an accusation

Installing these must be seriously complicated, touching or controlling all the main operations of the plane.

Well it's not like the predictive power of a physical exam is all that great. So you might be looking at a big impact on your lifestyle or career based on a false or small increase in risk (you tell yourself).

I know in military aviation there are games people play to avoid getting kicked off the flight line.
