    Waymo CEO on Fatal Uber Crash: Our Car Would Have Been Able to Handle It

    They actually -do- test these types of situations. I've seen Waymo testing first hand. It's funny/slightly scary to see Waymo employees on bikes riding in front of the cars on purpose, at different types of intersections and times of day, just to make sure the cars respond appropriately. And...

    Tesla Employee Writes of Low Wages, Poor Morale

    Believable. I have interviewed multiple people that have worked on the Tesla production line in Fremont (I work in the bay area) and they've pretty much all said it sucks. From hours, production expectations, to firing you if you make one mistake, or show up a couple minutes late. The pay is...

    FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler’s Departure Is Death Knell For Net Neutrality

    Not to get off topic, but there is a fair amount of misunderstanding about the ACA Insurance rates have been rising year after year since long before the ACA. Hillary actually tried to push "Hilarycare" or something in the 90s to try and combat this (she's been a strong advocate for improvement...

    Leaked AMD Ryzen Benchmarks?

    I think you need to know what you're talking about better. If you've paid attention to the market for the past 10 years you'd realize that more cores in one package = lower frequency to keep TDP reasonable. Example: 4c/8t: 4GHz 6c/12t: 3.6GHz 8c/16t: 3.2GHz Of course for applications that...

    FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler’s Departure Is Death Knell For Net Neutrality

    You mostly ignored the entire argument. Are we talking LAN or WAN traffic? As long as the ISP can send you close to their stated speed (less TCP/IP overhead) for WAN, they have met their agreement. That is obvious. For LAN traffic: depends on the router/switch. Find something that meets your...

    “Rogue One” Reviewed: Is It Time To Abandon The “Star Wars” Franchise?

    Praising George Lucas' prequels, top el oh el Attack of the Clones was hands down the worst Star Wars movie, right after TPM. The dialogue and acting (due to piss poor direction) were so appallingly bad that I literally started cringing during some of the scenes. I've read before that Harrison...

    FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler’s Departure Is Death Knell For Net Neutrality

    Westrock, you're so off base it's almost frightening. The ISPs themselves have setup the internet on a bandwidth, not usage, based pricing model. You pay for your connection, whatever speed it may be- which is actually pretty reasonable given the tiny fraction of a penny that transmitting 1...

    Man Streams 115 MPH Ride On Facebook, Crashes Into Garbage Truck

    Modified Civic.. I'd normally opt not to stereotype. But I've seen much dumb from modded Civic owners. Which shouldn't be surprising, they buy FWD N/A family cars, strap on a fart cannon, and think it's a sports car...
