In the context of an autonomous driving system, if a human has to make an input that the car didn’t anticipate, then it makes sense for those designers to consider that input as a result of an error on the part of the car.

“All input is error” is the philosophy of the railway passenger. Get on, arrive at destination, get off. You don’t give commands, you only opt when to begin and when to cease using the service.

If I'd seen them doing that, I'd have bolted full speed into their open car door and driven away with their car 🤣

That’s a non-violent crime. Bob’s a doofus.

“That three hours and 57 minutes i stood there and vandalized the statue and then fully explained why I was doing it IS NOT WHO I AM!”

I don’t think you know what that word means.

I’d bet that the dealer knew exactly what they were doing when they reset the battery indicator. And even a short test drive probably wouldn’t be enough to drop the bars appropriately, so you’d never know until you drove it longer.

Why can’t this work the other way around? Someone drop off a real car as a gift for a hot wheel I own. And in that case I will have the new Alpine A110 please.

WAY after that time period, too. I mean, no one really batted an eye at Elvis and Priscilla, did they? And she was FOURTEEN.

Please be aware:

According to the Indiana Jones Cannon, “Junior” was born in 1899 and Marion Ravenswood was born in 1909.

He started “dating” her when he was 26 and she was 16.

She was literally a child

Those trucks won’t be hauling Color TVs, let alone Refrigerators.

The actual release of the truck is still So Far Away.

Can they at least get their chicks for free?

Of course they’re in Dire Straights, they seem to want money for nothing.

I’m OK with this. Actual driving behaviour is a great predictor of the risk that the driver will cause a collision. Without that data, insurers have to resort to demographic generalisations - how old are you, what gender, what career, which district you live in &c to calculate premiums and that can be uncomfortably…

Maybe you’re not reading the stats exactly right. I’m not a statistician so maybe I’m not either, but here we go.
