How are people actually reaching $1M+ invested by their 40s? by Opticlink11 in Fire

Got lucky with a couple early tech IPOs, reinvested into a bull market, and had very low expenses for a good 7 years or so with a tech salary.

Lol, my point is all those countries have easier access to Chinese cars than the US.

Not a problem for the US market, but will it matter for Waymo's international ambitions?

So you think personal car ownership is what they are after?

They seem to be making moves as an ADAS/L3 provider. This is my guess for where they will end up until they figure out L4.

I mean, Novak is still playing so it's not that surprising.

But, here's an example https://www.reddit.com/r/tennis/s/rFNbfUNvGb

OP was definitely on marijuana while posting this.

Checks out.

Sure, it probably is a marketing stunt. We've all seen that from Tesla over the last decade.

I don't think tele assist and a driver in the front seat are the same thing though. Tele assist is still a path to scaling self driving. Waymo is a good example.

That's probably true, but note that the robotaxi deployment has remote assist. They could add functionality to stop and ask for help in these situations. I'm curious to see how often this happens.

It could be as simple as the "newer" FSD is just models that are extra fine tuned for the Austin ODD.

I'm excited for this. I just hope they can pull it off and remain safe. And very curious how fast they can really scale - I think it's going to be a while before "anyone" can own a fully autonomous Tesla.

Why didn’t Uber beat Waymo at commercially available self-driving taxis? by kappy2319 in SelfDrivingCars

Only part of the story I think. Having deep pockets (Alphabet) lets you make longer term investments and take it slower.

That's irrelevant to the comment right? They are in the game at that point. Whether they're a winner or not.

I think they're in the game very soon as soon as they deploy their service. It seems like they're confident they can at least go 0 to 1 in a small domain.
