I've only done it once, but I got saved by being on a hill while parking. I had wanted the hill to let me roll back a little bit and I was going to stop it with the brake, but instead I lurched forward because I hit the accelerator. Given I was on a hill though my mistake had to work against the uphill and I didn't jump up to far before I took my foot off, rolled back a little, and properly braked. It was very strange and confusing in the moment.

I'd be curious how often this happens with basic cruise control on the highways, but (edit: I suspect) highways are more forgiving to the mistake than with something like FSD on windy neighbourhood streets.

Tesla says they overrode the self driving system.

https://x.com/...

"Pedal fully pressed in the FSD crash. It was fairly obvious to anyone that uses FSD it does not drive like that."

Ashok from Tesla: "Yup. In this case, the driver manually overrode self-driving by pressing the accelerator all the way to 100% of the accel pedal in this residential area. They reached a speed of 73 mph during the crash, and had the accelerator pressed even after the crash."

edit: My guess, he wanted disengage the system so he went to press the brake, but pressed the accelerator by mistake instead. When it didn't stop / disengage as expected, as is always the case in these types of situations, he pressed it harder because he was sure he pressed the right pedal. At that point he probably starts yanking on the steering wheel, or the turns were too tight for that speed. I'm sure we'll get more details later when the full report is done.

Pretty much yep. Elon has a controlling interest in SpaceX so I think that was just his outright decision, unless he had to abstain and let the investors decide? I'm not sure if he had a controlling stake in xAI.

Edit: You also left off 'overvalued' when referring to xAI/Twitter. I think SpaceX honestly could have grown into it's individual valuation pre-merger.

We're back to this again eh?

stayed private, and never merged with xAI/Twitter

Could Ukraine please schedule a drone hit for the moment she gets off the train, or you know those view spots where you're approaching the city in a train/car, and you get that first amazing view, often from higher up. Yes please!

I was just reading a story about some sky divers who died in a plane crash shortly after launch.

It said the non commercial airliner stuff isn't held to the same regulatory standards, and these smaller outfits often fudge or push safety things off and whatever state / agency it was said it couldn't say these types of services offering flights are safe because of it.

Queue another video of someone who moved to Crimea after the war started going how could this ever happen to me, I cant even drive to work now!

We have a couple of services where I'm at now, where as food approaches its best before date, it goes into the app where you can order it at a discount and then go pick it up in store. If it can be frozen, they'll also freeze it to prolong its shelf life, like if it's fresh sausages that aren't selling.

I once got a large box of like 50 frozen burgers (frozen by default, not fresh to frozen) for like 80% off because they'd reached the best before on the box. They weren't freezer burned or anything like that, they were perfect.

A lot of places would have just thrown that out.

I thought it was 10 as well, but its 5.

If FSD (Supervised) was active at any point within five seconds leading up to a collision event, Tesla considers the collision to have occurred with FSD (Supervised) engaged for purposes of calculating collision rates for the Vehicle Safety Report.

And Israel said they won't abide it. They didnt hide their intention either

There was a recent case Tesla was found partly to blame because the system allegedly didnt work as advertised, but because it also worked in an area it shouldn't have been enabled in.

The didnt work as advertised part, was the saftey features to avoid the collision with pedestrians on the side of the road didnt work. The car didn't brake.

Why didnt they work?

The driver had his foot on the accelerator and was looking down because he fumbled his phone. The car actively warns you if you override it with the accelerator that it will not brake.

The driver claims he thought it would still brake even though the car says it wont... he accepted responsibility for the crash.

You cant fix stupid.

I think people might see that sometimes, but not understand why, because they just see a starship blows up headlines and don't understand what is happening as it's a test program (for now), and the headlines / stories don't convey that.

So when things explode, sometimes it's fine, and the stock might go up because a lot of really important things still were tested, some for the first time, and they went well.

Other times, things will explode and it can cause huge delays, and while they learn something, it's still 'bad' compared to the above blow ups, and the stock will very likely go down when these ones happen.

And then sometimes, something goes wrong on the test pad and you blow it up, and that is very bad. It's a test pad, its meant for that, but it causes huuuuuge delays.

But OP is right, they brought this new chaos upon themselves by going public. They really shouldn't have done it yet.

There's a lockup period ya. I heard they reduced the duration though, but it's typically 6 months.

Anyone who bought at $135 the money went into SpaceX's balance sheet.

For now, anyone buying after the $135 is buying from people who bought those $135 shares.

Mark Cuban is famous for having zero cost collared his shares that he couldn't sell and getting out of the dotcom bubble with his money since it protected him from the downside that happened, so maybe it's possible they've done that here as well?

My comment isn't saying it's a trap, it's a affirmation of yours with more proof that it wasn't a trap because Israel wasn't hiding or lying about anything either.

Iran: We want this

Israel: No.

Nothing out of the ordinary here.

OEMs need to report anything within 30 seconds to the NHSTA, and Tesla self reports within 5 seconds in their stats as if it was on.

Wouldn't they rather it not surge too much though, since in this case, thats billions that was left on the table.

I thought he didnt believe in germs?

As long as they're all just LLMs with the same design im not sure they'll get a moat.

Someone will likely need to depart from the current thought process and come up with something new that is the next leap, but also not have how it works leak.

Like the next big thing after transformers, before anyone else catches on. Im sure they all have people researching new ideas.

But the new GPUs absolutely can run the GPTs from back then better. We just dont want that anymore, we want the better bigger models that continue to be as or more expensive as what it was back then.

When you replace the cards in 5 years it'll run it even better. We just wont want that then.

Edit: and gains dont have to be huge, even 5-10% between generations, but take that to 10 years like I said and it can be substantial.
