Garland has been an unbelievable disappointment.

To be perfectly Frank, if it were me, I’d say, “Appointed for LIFE! What are ya gonna do, fire me? You can eat me, that’s what you can do!"

I admire your optimism, but nah. It ain’t gonna happen.

Right, like all those car owners on “Just Rolled In” who, having been told that the frames of their cars have rotted away and their brake pads are nonexistent, “decline repairs” and drive off.

Having used the full self driving (Beta, then “Supervised”) software for a couple of years, now, I can state confidently that the two of us working together, with the car largely driving and me making sure edge cases that are still an issue are avoided, are much safer than either of us individually. That some have…

Comparing to US average contains a lot of old & crap cars & drivers.

It’s almost inspirational-- if a guy with that haircut and that... thing on his chin can become a billionaire, maybe we can too!

I guess it comes down to which has less error rates, AI or humans. But every military obfuscates the mistakes it makes so we're unlikely to get accurate data on how AIs perform anytime soon.

Thank you for asking for more context and nuance in a science-and-technology article. There are a couple people around here who will jump down your throat for even the slightest appearance of support for Elon Musk, but that’s just noise — we should be able to have adult conversations about these things instead of just…

I keep seeing reference to this being a safety risk, but no where is it said what those risks are. At face level it appears to be a performance risk, but appears to pose little or limited health/safety risk to the patient.

Thanks for this.  I had never heard of the show, and was wondering if I should check it out even though it was cancelled.  If it had one good season, might still be worth it.   But it doesn’t appear it is.  Thanks!

He was also playing two different iterations of the same character, and managed to nail both of them. Going to show what a great actor he is.

I don’t watch any sci-fi or niche genre shows till they’re approved for a second season for one simple reason, they almost always end their first season on a cliffhanger. And to make it more annoying, it’s generally a “this changes everything!” type of cliffhanger. So fuck it, I’ve been burned enough and can wait for…

Constellation reminded me of Dark, a slow-burn, time-jumping effort that had to lean very, very hard on its cast to hold interest. The viewer has to spend a lot of energy figuring out “where” and “when” they were looking at. This can work when there is a big payoff. But the season finale felt more like a mid-season…

I feel like people wait until a show is established for a few years for fear of falling in love with a show that won’t make it.

He’s part of an engineering firm that’s centered on making vehicles as cheap to manufacture as possible. What too few people understand is that this is often at odds with ease of maintenance. This man hates bolts/screws with a passion.

You think that’s slow, you should’ve checked out the basic ‘82 Camaro. It came with an Iron Duke 2.5 liter four with your choice of either a 5-speed manual or (I believe) a 3-speed automatic.

Surely this will make cars more afforable.

This is not directed at you Brad - just a comment on the backwards thinking of lawmakers.

I know for some reason we ain’t wild about Teslas here but for being roughly 150K less expensive and at a 380lb ft deficit in power, losing by a third of a second seems.......pretty insignificant?
