But if you're correct, then won't it be a massive harm to the valuation once they are at fault in many accidents over the coming weeks? They have the Q2 earnings call coming up next month.
It seems like it would be a really bad idea to put this out there if they know from the data that it will cause lots of accidents.
It depends on how much autonomous driving they actually do. My guess is that they will only drive a miniscule amount in favorable conditions for the foreseeable future. That would maximize the hype:risk ratio.
It's also possible they quietly rely on remote operators to a large extent. The fake robot PR stunt wasn't even that long ago, the company might try the same thing here.
Yeah, well, companies like Enron show that covering up mistakes with other mistakes ends badly. Fake it til you make it works if you make it, blows up otherwise.
That store is dangerous. The last few times I went "just to browse" but I came home with an ultra wide monitor and a new PC build.
I've started buying parts retail instead of online just because of how much I enjoy Microcenter. The interior does need a bit of a renovation though, it looks almost identical to how it did in the 90s.
90s anachronism is a perfectly valid aesthetic. I dislike the tendency to think that things must constantly be changed for purely aesthetic reasons. This tendency was intentionally created in order to sell more things -- look up the history of Ford and Alfred Sloan for details.
While maintaining the 90s vibe is commendable, the keyword is maintain. Cambridge and Cincinnati complement their 90s aesthetic with grime and stains also from the 90s.
If it is not broken, do not fix it. Renovations would cost money, which would mean higher prices. It is better to stick with what works than see prices rise to cover pointless renovations that would harm their competitiveness. The money is better spent on expansion that would pay for itself.
Dude don’t update it. Do you really want it to look like Best Buy? Because that’s the ad company they will hire to remake their brand. But it will be even more of that.
My family has a history of malignant hyperthermia, so I was recently put under without inhaled anesthetics and they put an EEG on me. It was wild, zero delerium, nausea, or grogginess. I just snapped back into full consciousness.
Propofol is great isn’t it! I worked with some old guys who did some of the original studies demonstrating safety of propofol anaesthesia in MH. The world is much better for people with MH than it was 30 years ago, as long as they have a way to inform their doctors of the condition.
Was put under for minor surgery using propofol some 20 years ago. Doc started injecting the milky white goo into my IV, without so mucy as a hello, there was a clock in the room which seemed to slow down, I couldn't breathe or move or cry out and was sure I was dying.
Then I woke up in a recovery room, with zero awareness of anything that happened in between.
Same but I am literally math dyslexic (formal diagnosis of dyscalculia).
It prevented me from having a CS degree, I was unable to complete the math courses, but as far as actual programming and "software engineering" goes (design, etc) it's never hindered me. I can work out the logic and I let the computer do the math.
Edit: I'm downvoted below zero for this comment. I don't know what people are so offended by?
Yeah, to be clear, I'm not diagnosed with anything like that, and am only likening the experience to what I imagine it's like for dyslexics of humans language as a ready metaphor—meanwhile, the concepts aren't hard for me, like, a lot of people with no diagnosis of anything fall off the math-wagon right around the time operations on fractions are introduced, but the concepts have always posed no trouble to me and I breezed through early potential trip-ups like that. The style of presentation, specifically, is what gives me such a hard time and is what makes trying to approach even fairly easy "real" mathematics so hard for me.

This is what's wild to me: I have a long, successful career in a "STEM" field that's allegedly math-heavy, while being practically incapable of working with math. Like, it's never even been slightly a problem. I can't relate at all to characterizations of programming as heavy on math. It's never been my experience of it, and at this rate, probably never will be. If it were, I'd for-sure be in a different job.
They probably suspect you to be a slow coder who writes code with bad abstractions because they percieve the maths skills as how one does things in software engineering.
Nah she's just going where the money is. Look at how that page is all about telling her core market what they want to hear, and that she's happy to accept their money for a speaking engagement.
Play Services, and the Play Store. The network effect is so strong that competition becomes impossible. Nobody would buy a phone with a different AI provider because you couldn't use apps like Uber, and Uber wouldn't develop and publish to a different store and re-write their app to avoid Play Services to target a platform without any users.
