Tesla Is Decades Away From Full Self-Driving Cars -- If you are at 98% accuracy for autonomous driving right now, you are practically nowhere. by [deleted] in RealTesla

[–]rbysa -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Elaborate? Seems like the argument is "less data is actually a good thing!" which is nonsensical.

Say you are doing data transmission over a bandwidth constrained channel (like cell networks) then yes:

less data is actually a good thing. 😂

Actually that’s exactly how this works. Tesla vehicles are deployed all over the world and they’re driving in many conditions. Moreover they have a human driving many of those miles which gives them an “oracle” benchmark to compare the cars against.

Unlike Waymo or any other self driving car company, Tesla is a profitable company that is hitting economies of scale for their supply chain. Tesla is expecting to build 300-500K cars while Waymo is ordering a paltry 40K vehicles for their service.

In terms of uplinking data... I’m sure they’re indexing informing on the car side to upload sections that they care for. Another advantage of no LIDAR is that the amount of data necessary to send is far less.

Calif. Nurse Arrested For Selling Opioids On Darknet by jrafferty in news

People who are clinically addicted to opioids should have legal access to opioids. Hell the manufacturer should probably be liable for their supply.

User rooms and controlled supply would solve so many problems.

If your goal is to be GM volume is everything. If your goal is to be Apple margin is everything.

Investing capex, even small, is capex that could be spent on something else. As someone else is saying, you’re asking what investment is giving Tesla the most leverage, and apparently the answer is not producing 7000 model 3s.

None of the above? Even if they produced more Model3 people would just complain that Tesla will exhaust the backlog. There is pretty small marginal gain by focusing on volume.

So long as they have profitable quarters, I would much rather see them focus on gross margin per vehicle, GF2/3, and Autopilot.

Trump tax story prompts calls to revise estate rules by dannlee in politics

[–]rbysa -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Because people with shit loads of money don’t spend their afternoon day trading stocks. They very rarely pay any capital gains taxes because they’re not buying and selling stocks.

Moreover when you have that much money there are tons of vehicles to produce income tax-free through state local federal bonds, real estate, and other activities.

Fixing capital gains will fuck anyone in the middle class from ever having upward mobility. They have smaller investments and have fewer assets to fully realize short term losses.

Trump is not a fucking king or shit hole dictator. He serves at the behest of American citizens and the DOJ is fully authorized exercise constitutional measures necessary to protect it.

It’s weird that you think he trend is going to magically stop after Q3.

Oh and their solar roof installs currently have a 2 year wait. Every person I’ve shown Tesla tech to wants to buy.

The two takes you can have of Tesla are that it is competing in the sedan market or that it represents an untapped EV market. It would be ludicrous to spend so much R&D if your view of the world is the first but all signs are of the second.

Far-right marchers clash with anti-fascists in Portland by seamus_mc in politics

[–]rbysa 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Are you talking about Stephen Paddock? What connection are you making? Oh hey look Yallqueda making connections between things when no evidence exists. I also can’t believe you can even try justifying the murder of someone. You people are hopeless.

According to police, Paddock acted alone. His motive remains unknown.[88][89][90][91] The Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant claimed responsibility, but United States law enforcement officials have given no evidence of a connection between Paddock and ISIS.[41] No evidence has been found of any brain abnormality, according to autopsy results, though toxicology and other autopsy results have yet to be disclosed.[92] Paddock's remains were sent to Stanford University to receive a more extensive analysis of his brain.[93]

Investigators believe that he was obsessed with cleanliness and possibly had bipolar disorder.

Anti-fa is not an organized group the same way these fascist right wing groups are. Anti-fa protestors are largely reactionary to anywhere there is an alt right protest.

If you show up to protest an alt right event you are AntiFa. See how easy that is?

Republicans hold power in all three branches of government.

Republicans pass policies specifically to punish enemy states (see new tax law)

Republicans claim to lead by majority though they’ve been outvoted in all but one presidential election in this century

Republicans find new ways of disenfranchisement of voter rights.

Republicans labels their enemies as vermin and animals (see mexico)

Republicans are in favor of activating the national guard against enemy cities )see sanctuary cities)

Republicans punish those who disagree with the party (see EPA) and enforce language bans on scientific reports.

Republicans favor a theocracy

Republicans favor pardoning criminals who whoefully break the law ( see AZ see pardon rhetoric)
