As someone who’s constantly disappointed by motorsport dreams, a confluence of “wants” like this is not a good sign. I’d better not watch this time

Moores law only applies to transistors, not to any of the other parts of the system, so we can’t expect things like rotating radar assemblies to decrease in size with any sort of exponential speed.

Self-driving is what it would take to get me to trade in my 10 year old car. I’m looking forward to the tech being available.

Maybe so, but there have been plenty of “pay” drivers, those with very strong financial connections that allowed them quite literally buy their way into a F1 race seat, and I don’t recall one of them who went on to be a champion. Money doesn’t make you a great driver. It may open doors, but if you aren’t fast on pure

I worked on those room filling computers back in the day. Now my phone has 10,000 times the power of those mainframes. This will be just as much of a revolution.

Think about just how bad the average driver is.

pssst. dont tell her that theres a computer in their car that controls all sorts of functions already and which, if they fail, could potentially kill her.

Thank you for that!

Alternately, they’re very aware that they’re working on something that would incinerate them immediately if anything went seriously wrong, so it really doesn’t matter what they wore to work that day.

Thanks for your thoughts. I wonder, though, if the sculptor, particularly of the Black Madonna, had any idea that it would turn black over the centuries. It’s impossible to know his intent, but I doubt he intended it to turn black.
