I think what people are missing here is an understanding of how these systems are tested and deployed at scale. While I have no involvement with Tesla I do have first-hand knowledge of similar programs at tier 1 automotive suppliers.

The suppliers provide (or are looking to provide) an electronics suite to car manufacturers. The car manufacturers want the system to be safe lest they be sued out of existence. One part of that will include contractual requirements for the system to have clocked n-kilometers on the highway in full (or partial) operation. For example, one project had a requirement for car(s) with full sensor data recording and partial automation enabled for 1 million kms.

The automotive suppliers will outfit a handful of, say 2019 model year test cars with the proposed sensors in the correct place and drive them around roads and highways in the specified conditions. Outfitting the cars can be expensive with prototype hardware, collecting the resulting data is a pain, and as a result the suppliers I'm familiar with run a (relatively) small number of cars for a lot of miles to record all that data.

The point of all this is to collect sensor data for resimulation as models are developed and trained. If an exceptional event occurs, they can modify the driving model, then "replay" the new model against all prior collected data to make sure the change doesn't do something unexpected elsewhere.

This process takes a lot of time (years) to pursue in this manner. What Tesla is doing is deploying the hardware in the field, then using the deployed systems to collect data to be used for the development of the automation platform. Instead of a couple of test mules they can use every single car they sell and let you drive it around for them while they record the results. Data collection that would take years can happen in weeks. This is a brilliant shortcut to the process and it puts them a couple years in front of the competition.
To be fair planes aren't sold to relatively untrained individuals. Furthermore many accidents have happened when trained pilots stopped paying attention on the job and autopilot failed. I'm totally expecting a "Florida Man in Fatal Tesla Crash Was Masturbating to Internet Pornography" headline.

Real-time sentiment analysis of the debate
Because your industry has coined a term to mean something different from the literal meaning doesn't assert its the proper use the term. Auto implies automatically, it doesn't give any average consumer the indication that there needs to be manual involvement. I get it that pilots monitor stuff when planes are on auto pilot. That doesn't mean its correct for other industries.

> Mansplaining is when there is an assumption of ignorance on the part of a woman that can only be rectified (and must be rectified) by a man educating her on a topic, where that assumption of ignorance stems from gendered biases

So 'mansplaining' goes beyond simply noting a man's condescending behavior, but suggests that the only motivation is sexism. Is the evidence sufficient to prove the charge?

Maybe the man is simply rude towards everyone; maybe the woman is ignorant on the topic; maybe the guy was having a bad day.

The problem with the word is the logic that it implies. Soon we'll be finding that if a man is ever rude to a woman in public for any reason, he is automatically labeled a sexist. I'm not sure that's a very useful, or fair heuristic.

Actually, as with everything else in life, experience doesn't count at all. More accurately, not all experience counts equally. We know for a fact that the ten thousand hours of practice myth is just a myth. It takes targeted training to get better at something. I'd wager that most parents are just going through the motions because let's be honest — we have no clue what we're doing.

Your explanation seems to have two or more unrelated topics mixed in towards the end.
Curious, what is "take control at a moments notice" in seconds? From what I've read about aviation, situations where really fast, let's say <2 seconds, reaction to an unusual situation is necessary don't seem very common compared to car traffic? (Excluding starts and landings, even if a plane can do those on autopilot the pilots certainly are going to be fully attentive)

It seems like an airliner flying at altitude has quite large safety margins compared to a car on a highway.

Autopilot 1.0 was the precedent.

They announced that at the 'D' event that all cars shipping from then on would have AP hardware in.

The capabilities were progressively rolled out depending on the tech package you purchased over the next 12 months.
From the car purchase page, it seems that they are charging an additional $13,200 (combining the addons Enhanced Autopilot and Full Self Driving capability at $7,900 and $5,300 respectively) for the full experience:

Significantly different data sets, though. Google has full surround camera and LIDAR. Tesla has very limited external world sensor data in comparison.
There's a difference between defining the integral,then taking about how it's estimated numerically and to use some software to get numbers.

If you're interested in modern game development in 3D, you might want to look at Unreal Engine 4.

https://www.unrealengine.com/what-is-unreal-engine-4

It is free to download, you can play with it all you want. You must agree to pay royalties (5%) if you start making money with a game you develop.
Also, prop traders use the firms money to trade, they don't use client money. So the firm is responsible for the loss and gets the benefit of the profit.
More cameras. Better sonars (very short range). Better radar processing, but apparently the same old single radar at bumper height. Still no windshield-height radar. No radar scanning in elevation. No LIDAR.

That's a better, but still weak sensor suite. It's probably enough for freeway driving under good conditions. It's far below Google's sensor suite. Or Volvo's.

Now they just have to write software smart enough to not plow into stationary vehicles on the shoulder. There are videos of three separate Tesla crashes where the Tesla plowed into a vehicle partially blocking a lane.

There have been several announcements of low-cost solid-state LIDAR units for automotive. Quantergy announced last year, but didn't ship.[1] Innoviz announced this year to ship in 2018.[2] Advanced Scientific Concepts can't get their costs down.[3] (They have a great unit that costs $100K; the Dragon spacecraft uses it during docking.) Those are all-solid-state devices. There are also some companies trying to use MEMS mirrors, like TV projectors.
Eventually somebody will get 3D LIDAR technology working at a low price point, but it hasn't happened yet.

Which will only last if they're the only ones that can make self-driving cars I would think.

Edit: Though you can have your car join that network sooo. Mostly just means they don't want to sell to Uber, heh.
Software switch fee. You get the same hardware, different feature flag. Crazy right?
They're talking AP hardware, which was different from the entertainment cluster hardware.
tesla might not be comfortable releasing new software for update hardware in production
Maybe they're more easy to exploit providing a low wage dead marches.
as others say, totally legit to criticize the writing of a dead or living writer, they take on that risk when they decide to publish.

mostly here to say: all of DFW's writing is basically a pain in the ass to read, and many folks (including myself) consider that to be very much on purpose - he wrote (posthumously so maybe wrote is the wrong thing to say..) a 550 page book (the Pale King) about the IRS, tax code and boredom (yes, that explicit ha) and honestly, it’s one of my favorite books of all time, though sometimes really boring ha (a choice quote, from an accounting professor to class: “To be, in a word, unborable.... It is the key to modern life. If you are immune to boredom, there is literally nothing you cannot accomplish”).

the fact that you were able to make it through Big Red Son at all (even though you didn’t specifically enjoy it) makes me want to recommend more DFW to you, because not everyone has the will/patience to get through a piece like that in the first place. To that end, I think for a HN audience there are definitely more interesting pieces like:

“Tense Present”
http://harpers.org/wp-content/uploads/HarpersMagazine-2001-0...
(an exhaustive and IMO awesome essay on the “seamy underbelly of U.S. lexicography” specifically with regard to the actual usage vs. institutional tradition in language)

“Television and US Fiction”
https://jsomers.net/DFW_TV.pdf
(interesting take on TV, advertising and its effect on society, consciousness and fiction - it was written pre social media and even pre ubiquitous internet, so can feel dated but towards the end feels prescient, esp. as it focuses a lot on one of DFW’s favorite themes: “what we pay attention to and why and how that affects our consciousness”, etc.)

plenty more, but i think those are both good places to start.

(PS: if you like David Lynch or Dostoevsky, DFW has AMAZING essays on each of them too, highly recommend)

Movies are not being disrupted because like recorded music they are being displaced by the game industry. Just take a gander at Sony's income breakdown and games are as big as music and film put together. You don't want to disrupt an industry that's being displaced you want to get into the new industry that's displacing it.

I am trying to draw as much analogies as possible hoping that he will get up to speed fast.
1. Men are more likely to end up in prison in the US. By a really large amount. That seems to be a very misleading way of reporting statistics that is sexist.

2. One sexist system being used to justify another.

3. Prisoners aren't given respect. Nothing special about either of those conditions that make it stand out any more than all the recent cases of prisoners with medical needs dying because of disrespect.

Saying women need more help is not just sexist, it is so incredibly and blatantly sexist that any educated person that agrees can have significant judgments made about their views in regards to sexism.

Here, let me give an example.

1. Whites in the US are X percent of the total white population but white US prisoners are >X percent of the total white prisoners.

2. Whites going to prison are more likely to be an active patent to a child, meaning the child will be instead raised in a single parent family or go to foster care.

3. Whites in prison aren't respected.

Thus, whites in prison need more special treatment to help them more than minorities.

Anyone seriously giving the above argument, who was also educated in the racial disparity in prison, would clearly be acting racist.
That birth rate depends on there not being too many kids too.

School districts benefit from childless residents who pay taxes to support schools but don't impose any costs.

Also, there are many ways to contribute to the development of young generations other than simply having biological children. Even aside from adopting, lots of childless people I've known have been great mentors and teachers.

(Not that you'd necessarily disagree, just your post could kind of be interpreted that way).
>> In the case of the NYC market, AT&T had the worst spectrum planning of any major carrier.

They've been having a hard time since the late 1990's when they introduced the "one rate" plans and basically oversold their coverage area in NYC.

I distinctly remembering long articles talking about how the networks were so saturated, dealers were still activating phones on their network knowing the customers wouldn't get a signal and would have zero reception in NYC, even after being told by several courts to stop signing up customers.

Here is the text of the class action lawsuit that made it all the way the NYC Supreme Court: http://www.whafh.com/modules/case/docs/2556_cid_3_AT&T%20Cel...

EDIT: some of the articles I alluded to are listed in the class action starting on page 9.
this really comes off as "look over there" move to distract from the recent negative press as various government bodies take Tesla to task for not only the lack of performance with the current system but also its ridiculous name.

Sorry, but I seriously doubt they will have sufficient hardware installed to take it to level 4 or 5. It might be a stretch to get to 3 with anything they can deploy today simply because no one has demonstrated a real world working solution for these tiers. Oh you might be able to track demo one or controlled loop it.

My understanding is because Tesla has to send their data over the cell network it is first heavily processed/reduced by the cars onboard computer before being sent back (in order to conserve bandwidth). So I am not sure if it's fair to compare the 2 company's datasets based on miles driven alone.
Apple's Big MacBook Event Is Coming October 27
Pilot here as well, unfortunately, it's a fight that won't be easy to win. If in the mind of people, Autopilot means self driving. It's going to be hard to change the global perception.

When I'm using the Autopilot, I feel like I'm in my airplane, always on guard, and in a practice of recovery from unusual attitude in flight.

There are a few times also where being an engineer has helped a lot. You can pretty much predict the situations where the car will run into issues and conflicts ahead of time, just by looking at the scenario in front of you.

It's something that the majority of population is not trained to do.

Now having said that, I used to own a BMW X5 with Adaptive Cruise Control, and that car was also doing some pretty stupid things at times, especially when cars in front were moving out of the way. The car would suddenly think the way was clear and floor the accelerator...
It's probably using NVidia's self-driving hardware compute platform under the hood with Tesla's own software on it.
This is the biggest part of the announcement.

Absolutely monstrous.
As does Hillary. Well maybe not all of those, but she clearly incites sexism.
>I have no idea where to look on that page

Everywhere? It's a page full of selected news headlines. You're not supposed to look at some particular place (except the big letter, highlighted few headlines that are presented as the most important), just to check which ones you want to open.

So, not totally unlike the first page of HN.

>For example the main headline right now is "TONIGHT: HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP!" What does that even mean?

By your logic prosecuting international computer crime wouldn't be possible. How do you expect that to work out in practice?

Also, he was arrested in the Czech Republic, not Russia. The Czech Republic has an extradition treaty with the US that existed long before the Internet did. This isn't rocket appliances, it's how our world's nation state system works. Sure, he probably shouldn't get 20 years and should receive competent legal representation. But to allow anyone to hack computer systems in the US because that person is not a US citizen and not in the US is borderline laughable.

Tell that to a pilot who's had an autopilot failure where a servo went crazy all of a sudden. You better act quick, especially in low visibility situations, to turn it off, or pull the circuit breaker.
It might happen a bit slower than in a car, but the consequences can be much more dramatic.
Yeah, I might have been guilty of some hyperbole. I remember a nasty integral on the Linear Systems midterm. It probably would have taken an hour or so if I didn't make any mistakes; but you could transform it and solve it as a linear equation in 10 seconds.

That was the point of the class, that there area two kinds of problems, linear problems and problems you can't solve.

I'm not in the least suggesting that an engineer shouldn't go through three semesters of Calculus, Linear Algebra+DiffEq and a Discrete Math course.
The little loop near Columbia Road in the very upper-right of this pic is a bit odd: http://www.math.uwaterloo.ca/tsp/pubs/img/london_zoom.jpg

It's taking two separate paths to get from the pub in the bottom-left of the loop to the intersection that creates the loop. One of these paths must be shorter, so why isn't that path taken both to and from that pub?
You know that; I know that; the average Joe on the street does not, and instead has a Hollywood interpretation of the term. Tesla knowingly and cynically exploits that.
And the "Full Self Driving capability" comes with quite strong limitations as well:

>It is not possible to know exactly when each element of the functionality described above will be available, as this is highly dependent on local regulatory approval.

>Please note also that using a self-driving Tesla for car sharing and ride hailing for friends and family is fine, but doing so for revenue purposes will only be permissible on the Tesla Network, details of which will be released next year.

Not sure why someone would risk this money if they can activate it later on (even though for slightly more) to see how the functionality will be?
May reason trump the Trump in all of us
It definitely was bound to that behavior in some version of OS X -- may have been even older, I think it changed around 2008 or 2009.

I used the binding all the time in mail and safari until the default binding changed. And it drove me so crazy to lose the capability that I had to figure out the (incomplete) workaround. The left and right arrow keystrokes also always worked however require moving hands from keyboard and are less efficient to intersperse with other key strokes.
Agree, awesome work. Probably one of the nicest visual elements I've seen on a tech site for a while.
It seems that they expect to bring back the 1.0 features by December - it looks largely an approval for the system thing, and the enhanced features later over time.
Their LIDAR provider pulled out and now they're switching to camera-based CV and ending development of the LIDAR branch. I think they're hoping that this approach matures enough to match the capability of LIDAR in time for them to meet their market goals.
Evernote is another one of those apps that used to just work and now their search box is almost frustratingly invisible and hard to find.

Complete speculation, but I was told that ATT is getting out of DSL and is working to lay fiber everywhere as a replacement (they are putting it in my neighborhood now).

The 'final designs' of other companies' EVs still look ridiculous.

I don't know what Assange is thinking. He wants to convince everybody that he, and, by extension, Ed Snowden really are in league with the Russians? I think he just wants to keep WikiLeaks in the news, and doesn't care about the consequences.

Fortunately, it doesn't look like the recent email leak will have much impact [0]. (I suppose Assange could argue that he didn't expect it to.)
