Now if only they’d start selling minivans like this:

Because most people don’t give a shit. And I understand why. Cars are expensive, their reliability is always overrated, and for the most part they should just be treated as tools that you throw away when they’re used up. Now, this goes against the Jalop mindset, but I believe these cars have a place. Like the minivan,…

With a proper set of tires, I think this car would go 99.999% of places you need....same with the 4Runner.

But are you Stacy’s mom?

I’m not a regular mom, I’m a cool mom.

It’s a lower income area in a very expensive state. So, that kinda makes sense.

I see Maximilian from the movie “The Black Hole.” If you’ve seen this, you also have weird tastes in movies.

All I can think of is:

The guy showed that he is willing to put his own money towards his ideas. Give him that $50b and he will probably drain it on the next project.

The point is that self-driving technology has to be better than a human.

Yeah, sorry, no. That system is calculating vectors for everything around it, and was no doubt aware of the victim’s position, direction and velocity. The same as it would be if you were there standing on the curb at the time. If you had been on that curb and decided to start moving into the path of the car, there’s…

Self driving cars likely are better than humans already...are we requiring that they be perfect? Because that’s impossible.

I will take an autonomous vehicle that is as good as a fully focused human driver all day long. Since most people on the road can’t drive for 15mins without making 4 Instagram posts and responding to 36 texts while eating two big macs...

Better yes, but there are some things that can’t be programmed away. If this person suddenly changed direction to end up in front of the moving car the only solution is to separate people from cars with fences like they use on interstates to stop animals from crossing.

I respectfully disagree. I think the tech should be proven to kill 10x fewer humans per mile driven than human drivers.

That’s the issue. Was it possible to avoid the pedestrian without defying the laws of physics? Ask anyone who has hit a deer if they saw it coming or could have in any way avoided it.

If there was ever a track built to show why electric is better than ICE, Pike’s Peak is the one.

I’d say the odds aren’t good.

“Incredibly dismissive” is clickbait. “Cautiously noncommittal” is a more honest characterization.

Who cares, it’s amazing, squeeze me into the fucking thing
