Did you even read the report? The “implied threat” mentioned in the article was a tweet that was made publicly that had nothing to do with firing:

Any such threats are easily reported to the media. What the employees there instead said they wished to remain anonymous not because of retaliation from Tesla, but rather retaliation from the union!

Such threats are illegal even in the US and can be easily reported to the NLRB and certainly the media, I highly doubt it would even play a factor in Europe where the labor protections are even higher.

The other side of the story not told is that the actual workers working at Tesla have refused to strike, so the Union’s actions have been ineffective.

That map and page you link describes the initial project of 3 stations. The other tunnel is described under Resorts World-LVCC Connector if you simply navigate the site. It’s not fully finished (there should be a return tunnel also), but the Vegas site I linked by the actual operator shows the in-progress sections.

I’m saying the opposite, that this concept can scale, while light rail generally can’t scale downward when demand is low.

It varies enough people to handle the peak demand of the convention center and that is all that matters. That's why Las Vegas chose this system instead of a light rail system. The extra money and time would have just been wasted on running mostly empty trains.

The advantages are irrelevant in this application given even with only 5 seat vehicles it was able to handle peak demand just fine for the convention center. There isn’t enough demand to require a light rail system.

This is a convention center transport system, it’s not an airport commuter train. Having 6x the volume of freeways is irrelevant when there isn’t the demand. Even for commuter trains, the US hardly utilizes it to capacity (we don’t have attendants literally packing people in to get the doors to shut like they do in…

Except it’s not, it matches exactly what the convention demand is. There is a reason why even in cities with light rail, they still have busses and taxies. One size does not fit all, but it seems people can’t see beyond Elon Musk hating to see that. If Las Vegas built a light rail system they would have been spending…

I vote wrong pedal as per 99.99% percent of such cases.

The Las Vegas loop has nothing to do with Hyperloop even though people keep mixing up the two.

But for this project that doesn’t matter. This line is only in higher demand during conventions and it’s relatively easy to scale with a system like this for higher demand (just hire a few more drivers and drive more cars down; there is room to expand also with higher capacity vehicles like vans). Even during peak…

It costs drastically less. The equivalent light rail system cost multiple times more according to earlier estimates, most likely over $100 million (and almost guaranteed to cost overrun as well as being late). This was built very quickly and for relatively cheap.

The seat heater button is right on the screen if you look at the article picture. Tesla fixed it with an update after people complained (even before then was only one screen away on the climate screen). A later update also allows you to customize the scroll wheel on the steering wheel and use that to adjust it.

Due to a recent update, you can now adjust the temperature or fan speed using the scroll wheel on the steering wheel, making this less necessary for those that prefer physical controls.

Total weight the truck is capable of we know because it was tested close to legal limits by Tesla getting 500 miles of range at 81k lbs, carrying jersey barriers. The max allowable total weight in the US for battery trucks are 82k lbs, normal truck are allowed up to 80k lbs (federal law allows extra 2000 lbs for…

The only implementations where it would be hard to determine from a log are the end-to-end implementations like Wayve and Tesla’s V12 experiment. Those are the only implementations that are like how you characterize.

“The intent doesn’t matter. The outcome does. Because we can’t actually determine what its intent was (neither can we for humans, btw; a rationalization and a reason are two different things).”

I think it does matter, because the car didn’t drive forward to get off the pedestrian. According to the statement Cruise released, it drove forward to pull to the curb to reach a “minimal risk condition” that it was programmed for, it wasn’t to get off the pedestrian.
