People who have had chauffers drive them their entire lives have no concept of road conditions.

Yeah, but I trust Waymo will get their shit together long before that psycho will, if ever.
Tesla is already broke, the magic bubble has popped, and they are on a steady slide to bankruptcy. They will NEVER recover their mojo. The institutional investors will keep them alive for a while, but they are already Wile E. Coyote, hanging in mid-air, and hasn't realized there's nothing under their feet yet.
He fired them because he knew his system sucked, and would never be roadworthy, and that was the department that would stop him. So he fired them, and here we are.
I'm actually looking forward to a lot of good crashes, that they'll explain away as Sleepy Joe's fault, or it's not that bad that a school bus full of children blew up on a fire crash with a Tesla, it happens all the time, or perhaps they'll just deny it, and MAGA will cover it up. Let them kill a whole bunch of American citizens, and then be all dismissive of any criticism.
This is the year to let MAGA fully flower, and do their worst. The Dems should just stay out of the way, and do nothing to stop them from themselves, and work the media to point out every disaster. I can't wait for the Midterms.
Those Texas MAGAs are just pissed they didn't think of it first. Give them a bribe, they'll go away.
War is a great driver of technological innovation.
The airplane was first flown in 1903. When WWI broke out, airplanes were nothing more than fruit crates with wings, with a canvas covering and the equivalent of a lawnmower engine. They could literally tear themselves apart doing acrobatic flying. The first time they tried to mount a machine gun in front of the pilot, he shot up the propeller.
By the end of the war, only a few years later, they had aluminum frames, turbocharged engines, and machine guns that were synced to the crankshaft, and fired between the propellers. They could handle the twists and turns of the most acrobatic dogfight. Without the war, it's doubtful that the aviation industry would have been as motivated to advance so quickly.
It's Russia, you might not be far off.
If you want to see how fast even the Dems will bend over the wealthy, look at the government shutdown. When it was all about taking away food and health care from the poor, then nobody can figure out a solution, but as soon as the airports started falling apart, and the corporations couldn't move around the country, the whole thing is over in a couple of days.
Fuck this! The student answered according to the teacher's instructions. If she didn't like his interpretation, she should have been clearer in her instructions, and used the word ornaments, or an adjective to describe the balls.
I'd give him an A for using Critical Thinking Skills. If I was that kid's parent, I'd be having a talk with the teacher. Give my kid an F for properly following your poor instructions? I don't think so.
No! This lesson has been learned in Germany.
This lesson was learned by the entire world! The problem is that the good people won, and we're all so polite that we have even let the biggest enemy of the last century gain strength and rise again.
We need to learn the lessons of history and our mistakes and our experience, and stop being so polite to people who have made it very clear that they intend to enslave and murder us.
Embroider this on a pillow for the ages.
AI makes EVERYTHING worse.
