  • Note: it’s not the HTSB or any other agency’s responsibility to figure out a solution for Tesla. They just need to figure out what the bar for safety is, and tell tesla “make it as safe as full low light eye tracking, with whatever solution you want. But if you can’t make it at least that safe your cars shouldn’t be allowed back on the roads”.

    I was the biggest cheerleader for self driving cars because i hate driving - but “our best self driving car still can’t self drive at all” isn’t good enough, and letting them keep doing half assed shit like this does more harm to bringing people around to the technology than good.



  • It just feels like users being restricted to not having any incoming or outgoing communication across operating systems is discriminating.

    That’s not remotely what’s happening though? I have only ever had android devices, but message people on apple devices all the time. I don’t know or care what colour my sms messages show up on their devices, but they do show up. And maybe they have a bunch of iOS-only secret chat orgies they don’t tell me about, but who cares? I can still talk to them across discord, line, WhatsApp, Instagram, fb messenger, slack, Skype, signal, telegram, irc and God knows how many other different chat apps my friends and I have used at various times. The fact that iMessage is Apple exclusive doesn’t make a difference to anything, they all have a different subset of apps anyway even just the android users so i have to have all those apps installed too, and my iPhone friends have the same.


  • Mate you can’t just take random Internet comments like this as medical advice. You pet needs medical attention from an actual vet who can examine the patient.

    If you can’t afford that, ask for donations to help you pay the vet or ask local animal shelters or vets if they have any options to help you. But stuff like giving the cat random ointments or changing their foods without any actual diagnosis is not a way to help a suffering animal.

    We are taking the jacket off a couple times a week to let the skin air out and so that she can clean herself naturally, but this one spot is horrendous

    The fact that you have your cat in a jacket most of the week preventing her from cleaning herself several times a day as is normal for cats is a whole 'nother red flag. That is extreme and not something you should be subjecting a cat to without a vet telling you to do it anyway.



  • I don’t get people who say things like this. The board in question isn’t part of the “for profit” part of OpenAI - they don’t have any obligations at all to make the company profitable or to protect the investors money. They’re the board of a non-profit who spun of a part of the company explicitly for the purpose of raising money without being accountable to investors.

    Microsoft and all the other investors knew that before they gave them their money.

    The board is very very stubborn because they apparently would rather see OpenAI shutdown rather than let Altman run it, but they’re not ill meaning. They’re following their corporate charter.
