> A non-bank does not have the ability to create bank loans.

A decentralized derivatives protocol can lend its credit balance (and fractions of its stablecoin balance, if it exists at all at the point when a position is opened) to a decentralized liquidity pool when there is demand by end users to open a position (ex. a user can deposit frax to buy options/forwards/interest rate swaps/etc against a liquidity pool while the exchange allows the pool to borrow collateral into existence [and destroyed when the users position is closed, modulo the type of derivative the user bought]) without the liquidity pool providing all or any the collateral to back the position if it ends up moving against the liquidity pools exposure.

Such a protocol can also issue debt against their stablecoin flows in accordance the protocol code, that can also float on a dex at a premium or a discount and also be used as collateral in other decentralized stable coins that allow for differing collateral underlying (like some decentralized credit/debt backed stablecoins out there now, or allow themselves to be collateralized by any combination of ERC20 underlying).

Yes definitely, I wash all my foods before eating. But I don't associate any kind of serious risk to most of the foods that I eat.
Well she says she did. Further confusing the matter is there is the FSD Beta, which very few people have access to for now. Then there is adaptive cruise (works really well!), then there is adaptive cruise with autosteer (not so good!). So who even knows which she was talking about.

I fault Tesla for having a mess of badly named options, and for putting beta stuff out on the roads for sure.
> Does anyone have any idea about how to get this actually investigated to see if it was another Autopilot failure?

If you want to get autopilot in general invesitgated and you think that's not happening enough based on your experience, because the thresholds used by agencies skip investigation when it is warranted, you should direct your complaints to Congress, especially your members and those on the relevant committees.

This will probably not, even in the case where it is part of triggering action, get your accident invesitgated differently, but if your concern is general safety that's probably not important.

If you really want your accident investigated more thoroughly, you’ll probably have to do it yourself by gathering enough initial evidence to find an attorney willing to pursue it as a defective product liability case against Tesla. This may be complicated somewhat by dealing with the existing insurance companies involved in handling claims out of the accident, but that's probably a small part of the involved challenge. On the other hand, your personal potential financial upside is higher in this case, though the likelihood of recovery may not be good.
With an electric turkey fryer (essentially an electric oven with the door on the top) frying a holiday turkey is easy and safe. It results in a very nicely cooked turkey without taking up any space in the kitchen (we plug it into an outlet outside the house).
Practice trying to find the positive in something. If you have been doing negative comments for a long time, the brain has sort of hard wired to respond that way.

Deliberate practice at saying something positive will help to rewire the connections.
This is why I'm excited about Djed (https://djed.xyz). Input Output Global (creator of Cardano) has been researching stable coins and drafted a pretty extensive white paper on their solution (https://eprint.iacr.org/2021/1069.pdf). The white paper also include a mentions for how they will prevent bank runs.
Then don't drive with other drivers - NON-autopilot drivers eating, texting (constantly!), seeming to look up directions and much more (falling asleep).

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cs0iwz3NEC0&t=2s

The fact that you promote this absolute recklessness and demand users turn off safety features that may, net net save lives is depressing.

Finally, folks get very confused between things like autopilot and other features (autosteer beta with FSD visualization) etc. I think some teslas now even show a message warning that cruise control will not brake in some cases? Anyone have that.

I've been following the unintended acceleration claims around tesla's as well. Most seem pretty bogus.

For what its worth here is data we currently have from Tesla:

"In the 2nd quarter, we recorded one crash for every 4.41 million miles driven in which drivers were using Autopilot technology (Autosteer and active safety features). For drivers who were not using Autopilot technology (no Autosteer and active safety features), we recorded one crash for every 1.2 million miles driven. By comparison, NHTSA’s most recent data shows that in the United States there is an automobile crash every 484,000 miles."

So you want to go to a 10x increase in crashes. (1 per 484 vs 1 per 4M). I realize this is nt one to one, but even outside of this we are seeing maybe a 2x improvement (if your normalize for road conditions etc).

Nission Maxima had something like 68 deaths per million registered vehicle years. Will be interesting to see how this comes out for Teslas.
I'm going to make the assumption that you haven't yet identified people you would like to mentor you, in which case I'd start there.

How I've personally done it is by first determining what kind of advice/skills I am trying to get better at. For instance, if my company is in B2B and sales is not my strong suit, finding a mentor in a similar space that I'm in but has at least 5-10 more years of experience than I do has been incredibly helpful.

For you, as someone who's a solopreneur, I reckon that it would probably be very useful for you to find other successful solopreneurs, starting to find someone maybe 2-5 years out from where you are now, and then working your way up to someone with more success and experience.

Once you've identified such people, there are different ways of trying to approach these people, depending on how difficult they are to reach. Some ways that have worked for me are to get connected with someone via an intro from a trusted friend, family member, professor or mentor. Other times, I've reached out to them directly telling them why I was interested in connecting with them and seeing if there are ways I can provide value to them. This approach may take more time, but this many people are likely busy and not able to help until they trust you. Hope that's helpful!

This is an exciting product - but it is challenging to convince decision makers to try out your solution in the first place.

How do you overcome the customer's mindset of build vs buy, and having an internal competition/enemies from your customers?

It might be a more straight-forward decision when the customer is starting from scratch. However, when the customer is invested in their in-house solution, what does it take to convince them to try your solution?
Tesla seems to want it both ways... Sell their cars by marketing how magical the autopilot is, then blaming drivers when the believe the marketing hype.

Hi! I'm Celeste. I'm 16 and self-taught - so have no professional history - but have graduated and am looking for internships or other ways to gain initial work experience in lieu of a degree. I'm not looking for any particular field or role but am able to learn quickly.
Every quarter or so, I tell FB head hunters to go away. I do think about the money I'm turning down, but I also like to sleep at night.

Having morals does cost money.

And yes, I do think less of the 'typical' FB employee. Everyone's story is different and I'll listen, but the presumption is that working there means being OK with enabling genocide for a nice paycheck.
The whole premise rests on the idea that FB products are inherently harmful to children.
The "is meant" part is unprovable. Trolling is often about sarcasm that obfuscates the intent. We can use the recently famous "let's go brandon" as an example - the intent is clear, but unprovable even with inquisition methods.

Possible scenario A: Teslas have a fundamental flaw that causes a single driver to have several accidents. Multiplied by the number of Tesla drivers who use Autopilot, there must be hundreds of thousands of unreported and uninvestigated auto-pilot accidents. Most certainly a conspiratorial cover-up by Tesla, the NTSB, and the NHTSA.

Possible scenario B: The driver of the Tesla has misrepresented or misunderstood the facts of the situation.

Possible scenario C: The driver of the Tesla doesn't know that she should take her foot off the accelerator pedal when using Autopilot.

I suppose any of these (or several other) scenarios are at least possible. I'd probably apply Hanlon's razor here before anything else.
The plan to fix it would be proportional representation (independent redistricting is also a good plan for most states but California already has that). It seems to be getting a bit more attention recently but nowhere near a major push for it that I've seen, even here in Oregon where unaffiliated voters outnumber Republicans and are getting closer to outnumbering Democrats as well. I think we have a decent chance of getting independent redistricting in the next few years and hopefully the state supreme court will improve the districting passed by the legislature.

Edit: We also don't have the top two system that California and Washington have and that high number of unaffiliated voters is even under a closed primary system.

Edit2: Unaffiliated voters in Oregon do include most non-voters, unlike some states.
This is a silly story. I've done hiring in the software industry before and there were always candidates who would stop responding, or fail to show up for interviews, or accept an offer and not report to work. So what, nothing has changed. That's why competent managers keep a pipeline of multiple candidates moving through the process until the position is actually filled.

And when the position was filled I at least sent a 1 line email to the remaining candidates just to let them know that we weren't moving forward.
It was also technical limitations that led to it being Mario Kart and not F-Zero. To do two players simultaneously they had to greatly reduce the track size and cut the framerate in half. This led to something that really didn't feel like F-zero so they eventually shifted it to go-karts and then from there they got the idea to use Mario characters and add items.

I’ve worn gloves when cooking it at home. But I also treat all meat this way (except the gloves, that stays with chicken). I also don’t put washed veggies on the same thing unwashed ones have been on. Basically anything you buy at the store seems like it’s had some sort of outbreak of something at one point, so I just treat everything as contaminated at first.

This is absolutely true. If anyone remembers Tengen back in the day putting stuff out without the Nintendo seal of approval; Nintendo completely freaked out about it despite the fact that Tengen’s stuff was much higher quality than many “approved” Nintendo games.

There's a canonical toxic response to this = HFSP. I don't like that because we're all still learning.

You're right in that stablecoins might actually be worthless in the long run since they're backed by USD which might be worthless in due course of time.

Yes, it's a bit distressing having myself and the people I care about be treated as NPCs to some Tesla owners as they beta test their new toys on public roadways.

The fraudster probably picked a property with both an absentee owner and no mortgage for that reason.
If Tesla, NTSB and NHTSA refuse to investigate, you could hire a lawyer who's willing to go after Tesla specifically. I've similarly been stonewalled by Lyft. Long story short, the driver was fiddling with the official Lyft app that sends notifications during revenue service when the driver caused a 3-car pile up.

Be careful, a lot car crash lawyers just want an easy pay day by hounding the insurance companies. Make sure your lawyer is on the same page as you.

That data is not comparable, the autopilot in question there can only be activated in simple situations like a straight highway when you aren't changing lanes. While the human data is for all scenarios.

Tesla is not being transparent enough with their data for us to know anything.
i have questions.

1) how high of a speed, exactly?

2) it rear ended you twice? as in it smacked into you, decided that wasn't enough and either waited for you to pull forward or for the cars to separate and then accelerated into you again? if it actually did this, this is downright comical. i'd wager the driver was involved in the second collision though. (which should be considered a failure of the system nonetheless, as driver+autopilot operate as a single system, where if the state of the system leaves the bewildered driver manually accelerating the car into a collision, that is still a degenerate state!)
I have adaptive cruise control, and it behaves the exact same today as it did on the day I test drove the car. It doesn't change behavior unpredictably with OTA updates!

How was the driver supposed to know that the previous issue was not some rare fluke?

Tesla is recklessly rolling out software, and amazingly has pushed off the liability to the drivers willing to try it. Sadly we are all part of the beta, like it or not, if there are are Teslas driving around on public streets.

I'm mostly shocked that insurance rates have not skyrocketed for FSD beta testers.

So is managing VMs and devs don't do that either. Every dev I've ever known (and most ops people tbh) have just unthinkingly turned off SELinux the moment it gets in their way. If you're painting an arbitrary distinction between "containers are fully owned by devs who by assumption don't care about security" and "vm's are fully owned by ops who care about security" then you're doing it wrong. It's like ... the whole point of devops mannn.
I used to use whereis, and... somewhat ironically... switched to using 'which' because it was more likely to be available on whatever given Linux environment I was using :-)
Come on, that’s blatant whataboutism. Surely we’re good enough here to realize that we can hold both Tesla and other drivers to a higher standard?

Yes, people are often bad drivers. But it doesn’t follow that we must ignore the faults of any self driving technology just because regular drivers crash too. If Tesla is pushing out updates that make their own super fans comment on the cars doing unsafe and erratic things, that’s something we should look into.

What we need is Matt Levine's "Certificate of Dumb Investment".

> I have written before about my own fantasy for consumer securities regulation, which would solve all of these problems but which would probably face some political hurdles in getting enacted. It goes roughly like this:

>> Anyone can invest all they want in a diversified portfolio of approved investments (non-penny-stock public companies, mutual funds and exchange-traded funds with modest fees, insured bank accounts, etc.).

>> Anyone can also invest in any other dumb investment; you just have to go to the local office of the SEC and get a Certificate of Dumb Investment. (Anyone who sells dumb non-approved investments without requiring this certificate from buyers goes to prison.)

>> To get that certificate, you sign a form. The form is one page with a lot of white space. It says in very large letters: “I want to buy a dumb investment. I understand that the person selling it will almost certainly steal all my money, and that I would almost certainly be better off just buying index funds, but I want to do this dumb thing anyway. I agree that I will never, under any circumstances, complain to anyone when this investment inevitably goes wrong. I understand that violating this agreement is a felony.”

>> Then you take the form to an SEC employee, who slaps you hard across the face and says “really???” And if you reply “yes really” then she gives you the certificate.

>> Then you bring the certificate to the seller and you can buy whatever dumb thing he is selling.

>> If an article ever appears in the Wall Street Journal in which you (or your lawyer) are quoted saying that you were just a simple dentist, didn’t understand what you were buying and were swindled by the seller’s flashy sales pitch, then you go to prison.

> I am open to compromise on the details. The point is that the right general approach to the problem of people buying dumb investments is to give them much, much, much clearer and starker and scarier warnings before they invest, and then much, much, much less sympathy if they do it anyway.
