You do understand that software and hardware are two entirely different paradigms, right? With your approach, we’d never have self-driving cars, because software is never perfect. In software, you don’t have the luxury of waiting forever to perfect it, there’s always a trade-off. This is already much safer than a…

There is a serious public safety issue with letting humans drive their own cars, which is why liability insurance is mandatory for all drivers. As long as Tesla’s technology can be demonstrated to provide a reasonable level of safety then I’d rather be on the road next to a beta Autopilot Tesla than a tired semi…

Note how it’s put: “safe but unpleasant”. He’s not implying that it was not tested to be safe. Tesla has plenty of internal testing and they have an actual true beta program (called “EAP”) which has hundreds of testers that does beta testing for them.

Tesla could have just as easily called it the first iteration of a finished product. Would you judge it’s safety and reliability using the same metrics as the so-called “beta” product? People talk about Autopilot like Musk just released a bunch of cars onto the road with a machine learning algorithm and hopes that the…

No, the USA is being trolled by a POTUS as old as a turboprop relic.

Not a Boston fan, but allow me to give the contrarian take. It’s not unreasonable for a group of coworkers who’ve bonded to expect a close member of that group to tell them he’s leaving rather than them having to hear it through the press. One of my coworkers just left and I would have been upset if I’d had to hear he…

Garnett? Sure. Big Baby? Yup. Rondo? DEFINITELY.

Ummmm not even the cops are claiming they were shot at...

If ever God were a sending you a sign to stay away.

Bring the New Jersey back to fighting status but change out her guns to be Railgun hybrids.... So much range.

I can’t help but think that it would be far cheaper to lob shells rather than launch cruise missiles if all you want to accomplish is indiscriminant bombardment.

Part of me knows that battleships are both impractical and just as vulnerable to air attack, and the current doctrine has done away with such gunships, but part of me also wants to see these big floating fortresses get backup from big, bad, 9-barrel motherfuckers similar to Missouri and Iowa.

All of those teams, with the exception of the Broncos, had strong QB play during that particular playoff run and/or Super Bowl. (And even the Broncos still had Manning, who was a shell of himself physically but still savvy enough to not fuck up enough to give the D a shot to win.)

Under Schrödinger’s Browns’ Cat Corollary, the cat in the box can be considered both alive and dead until the box is opened, unless the Browns draft the box, in which case you don’t need to open the box because the cat is definitely dead.

A dead cat would be better than Trent Richardson because a dead cat wouldn’t lose yards.

... and that, if it were to happen, would be among their top 5 best first round draft choices.

“Just what are you implying? Go fuck yourself, man!”

The other 50% is that they draft an actual dead cat.

I fully anticipate they will accidentally draft Jason Garrett.
