A decent camera only vision system should still be able to detect the wall. I was actually shocked at the fact that Tesla failed this test so egregiously.

If you use two side by side cameras you can determine distance to a feature by calculating the offset in position of the feature between the two camera images. I had always assumed this was how Tesla planned to achieve camera only FSD, but that would make too much sense.

Even if they wanted to avoid any redundant hardware and only go with one camera for each direction, there is still a chance they could’ve avoided this kind of issue if they used structure through motion, but that’s much harder to do if the objects could be moving.

Less shock value -> less publicity -> less people thinking about your message

Should everyone go destroy art galleries? Housing crisis = art destruction?

Do you not agree? Over half a million homeless are without homes. People are dying, and the homeless are largely being dehumanized or ignored. There is a very real human cost far beyond a piece of art or the barrier protecting it.

If you’re looking for objective quantifiable criteria on right vs wrong, you’ll never find it. Morality often falls into a grey area involving tradeoffs, but bringing attention to a societal issue with huge human costs just for splashing soup on a plastic barrier seems pretty effective to me.

I see this more as a tool for people who notice reduced battery life and want to do something about it. Currently they essentially need to guess if the battery is the issue and get it replaced to find out.

If you notice your battery life shortening, the health check can either confirm that you will see improvement with a new battery, or it will tell you your battery is okay, and reduced life is due to software changes or increased usage.

Yes, the stock market did so much better under Trump. There are many many reasons underlying the performance of the market under each of them.

For example most of the time trump was president was pre pandemic, but Biden was president through most of the pandemic. Trump was also president during the pandemic stimulus and enhanced unemployment payments, then Biden was president when all of that spending materialized into inflation which spooked the markets, and then caused interest rates to rise, prompting the tech layoffs

Wilson said in the statement that when the plane landed in Hong Kong, he “immediately went to customs officials and called their attention to the issue.”

If his statement is to be trusted, he did not try to get away with it

It sounds like you want an echo chamber?
