Remember the studies concluding that caffeine is bad for your health? Well, it turns out that those effects don't show up when you study coffee consumption. There are a lot more components in normal coffee, and apparently the combination of all of them, including caffeine, is very benneficial for humans.

"After the ball there will always come at least one kid" my father told me when I was learning to drive. Sometimes though, there isn't a visible ball. It could be a small butterfly, a cat in the other sidewalk, a shape in the sky... etc. That's why, when driving in areas I expect there will be kids around, I am extremely cautious when my view of the sidewalk is blocked.

It seems to me that in this case the Waymo car was not as careful as it should have been.

Thanks.

I usually learn a lot from the comments here, specially from technical disagreements, where the deepest insights come to light. Having said that, I did not anticipate this amount of depth... keep up the good work!!

Sure, if you really care about something other than making shitloads of money. It is a shame that there is a shitload of money to be made out of blurring the difference between facts and lies, which is precisely the opposite of what Wikipedia stands for.

No AI-induced job market annihilation, at least until the AI bubble collapse...

+1 Insightful (out of mod points for now).

It may be possible to measure the real impact to some people/companies if we consider the cost of delayed transactions and some opportunity costs. But then, to be fair, you would have to include the gains of those who beneffited from this situation. More likely than not, those billions are bullshit...
