tesla's stubborn insistence that vision alone is sufficient for FSD under current technology is not a paradigm that is proving its merits. no other manufacturer asserts vision alone is sufficient for SAE L3+.
Tesla's robotaxis crash at 10x the rate of human drivers.
Last month, Tesla confirmed the fleet had traveled roughly 250K miles. With 7 reported crashes at the time, Tesla’s Robotaxi was crashing roughly once every 40K miles.
The average human driver in the US crashes about once every 500K miles.

that would require fascists to be rational actors, which they almost never are
The thing that gets me about the whole situation with Israel in Gaza is that if they had just gone in there with military police and started grabbing guys they could provably connect to Hamas and trying them in their court systems, there would not be any major protests at all.

remember when they felt like they could only do this off shore at guantanamo because it might break the law?
They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

taylor swift implicitly endorses her music being used in trump propaganda
Pop star Sabrina Carpenter slams the White House for using “Juno” in an ICE arrest video:
“This video is evil and disgusting. Do not ever involve me or my music to benefit your inhumane agenda.”

it's absolutely insane to me that good professors are being fired for demanding their students uphold empirical, higher standards than "it's in the bible". we've truly been thrown back to the dark ages. it's only a matter of time until MAHA does it to medicine and doctors with their woo and nonsense
my main takeaway from the oklahoma university thing is that discrimination against evangelical christians is good actually

"microgrids" is an interesting way of saying "ways around our crumbling central institutions." you really can't trust institutions like the utility to work properly anymore, not when bean counters consider the stock the product and not your electricity supply.
When power went out across all of Puerto Rico on 16 April, a lot of the lights in the town of Adjuntas stayed on. A combination of experimental microgrids, solar panels, and storage kept power on for many businesses and residents.

Could Microgrids Be Puerto Rico's Answer to Endless Blackouts?

every neoliberal policy analyst wants to "trim the fat" of society until the lean times come. community level resilience, redundancies, etc are good actually

republicans are more into perverse racist self-indulgence than effective policy. i'm certain elon musk grinned ear to ear when he pointed a shotgun at the collective global south and pulled the trigger. it doesn't change the fact that to prevent pandemics at home, you must stop them abroad first.

The DC shooting story is really getting to me because we literally trained this man as a child soldier for a death squad in a forever war and Stephen Miller et al want to blame it on other cultures? It's our culture, American culture, that killed that woman.

No child should go hungry simply because their parents are immigrants. As mayor, I’ll join @newyorkstateag.bsky.social in using every lever of government for the families who fear if they can afford tomorrow’s meals.

maga can't stop this because it's rooted in fundamental economics. the EROI of solar has tremendously increased since the 2010s in a way that's easy to miss if you're not adjusting your priors regularly
Official data is in this week, and US solar continues to grow rapidly, with generation up 30% compared to last year!

Some in the Democratic Party want to you think we must choose between social justice and economic populism.
Rubbish.

Remember, the big argument for AI in the arts is that these “artists” have ideas, hundreds of ideas, thousands, all that was stopping them was the hoards of gatekeeping musicians, writers, illustrators… and not that they were lazy and didn’t want to put in the work.
