I don't know, it's a hard call, but if you culture and the culture of the company you work for conflict on a very basic level as this, I can understand him being fired. Every employee of a company carries out the company's culture.

I like not doing something and pointing my fingers angrily, but I have no causes, mmmm maybe i will get mad at trees or something, they are always standing around, watching, they are evil, it's their fault our culture is doomed, have you noticed that whenever a civilization was destroyed there were trees in the…
yeah but dmv has only authority in america(what if you want your self driving car to go to canada or mexico etc.) let's not do the whole metric vs imperial thing again, let's all agree (worldwide) on a standard, thus the iso looks like a good place to start... or any other international standard will do but carmakers…
Still not really bothered by it. I can see the potential for such a database to catch criminals. What bothers me more is that we have no problem signing away our privacy to TSA(what i put in my briefcase when I go on a plane is protected by privacy in my opinion, now if it where a transparant briefcase, that's another…
hey competition is great but i do hope that they sit together and make some iso guidelines in inter-car-communications so that mercedes' will be able to speak to google's cars and vice versa. Because I am furious about the multitude of charging types for electric cars, just use the goddamn iso standard fucking twats
I find this funny, it is in no way an invasion of privacy since it's only filming on the public roads, which are public and thus there is no expectation of privacy and if it catches criminals and non-law-abiding citizens this is a great system. I was more shocked about the monitoring of telecommunications with the…
My brain actually hurts from watching this. V6 in a bmw(i know there are rumors but as far as I know there was never a bmw sold with a v6)? Antenna for aerodynamics? The amount spent on badge "spotting", the retardedness of all comments about the electronics... I just felt my IQ drop by about 5 points
the last one is just de 3door of the second picture...
Taxes are indeed quite high but we do have a lot of benefits(almost free and good healthcare, almost free and great education and research, unemployment benefits that are great, disabilities benefits are also quite good, cultural subsidies for operas etc.(we do not really know fund-drives or charitable events to gain…
Don't get me wrong, I think we can all learn from each other (mistakes and good things) We have an astonishing bureaucracy (about 30 percent of our working force) but we are working on getting this down and more efficient. You guys can make kit-cars, here this is not allowed, we have incredibly high roadtaxes based…
Aaah, I see, you mean the "normal" headlights, not the highbeams. But I can imagine bmw being able to to the same trick with the normal beams. Or make them automatically go to a lower power setting if oncoming traffic is detected. The possibilities are endless and I think BMW will not allow oncoming traffic be…
Why would this system no work on hills? If a vehicle is coming the opposite way, the camera will still detect it and the tunnel will be created. In the film at around 1:50 the car is traveling up a hill in a corner and it still detects the other vehicle...
ps BMW says 3 series can get them too
Yeah that's why the author of the piece is correct.I don't understand US DOT regulations(i presume they are DOT?) Here in Belgium, we still haven't begun the debate of driverless cars, but new headlight technology is no problem, a small study in belgium or somewhere else in europe(i think you can even use american…
I know, I am a youtube bmw channel subscriber and usually those films are super active, this one was very calming and "scientific" but sorry , I did a shazam and soundhound search, no matches as to who the composer is :(
I know, but watch the video, the computer automatically adjusts the headlights so that you get almost nothing directed at you, thus this becomes a better technology than hdh or xenons, because other drivers get no light directed at them at all, and the driver of the car has better vision
I stand corrected, you are right, but my basic premise, the laser not hitting the road and other drivers, but just "becoming" a very powerfull lightbulb is still correct, wouldn't you agree? But I imagine that being a wasteful procedure. I mean, first energy is converted to light energy, that light makes the atoms in…
You do know that these do in fact just have the same effect as very powerful xenons. De laser is the source of the light, but is very smeared out, thus creating an very powerful lightbulb, and if the car were outfitted with high beam assist, oncoming traffic will barely notice them
I imagine there will be a "turner doomsday video updated version " somewhere in repository with those exact images on them... Can somebody please hack cnn to find out?
I never understood the big danger of shutting the car down unintentionally . I mean, sure you loose assisted brakes and steering, but guess what, you were able to steer and brake a car before all those inventions. Why is it soo dangerous that a recall is warranted?
