If nobody wants to force anyone then what's the complaint? If the municipalities are maintaining their desired zoning, it's for a reason and they perfectly well have that right.

Clearly the communities as a whole are trying to maintain an environment they like, and which they already have, not trying to create in anyone else's place to suit themselves, and the zoning is doing exactly the job it exists to do.

I see no reason that more people have to cram in to a place that is already full to capacity according to it's desired density level, until such time as the country runs out of space anywhere else.

> investigators already suspect the crash took place when the driver of the Tesla was employing an automated driving system

Contradicts the headline, which implies that NHTSA told AP that they had specific reason to believe Autopilot was engaged.

Tesla Autopilot is 10x safer than driving without it [0]. We keep seeing speculative clickbait headlines because "Tesla" gets clicks. We also keep seeing confirmation a few months later that, oh yeah... turns out the driver was drunk and pressing the accelerator, and Autopilot wasn't engaged. Telemetry clears these up easily.

Also the "recall" (OTA software update) they mention at the end was for FSD, not Autopilot, and it was unrelated: they asked Tesla to eliminate human-like rolling stop behavior and to stop at yellow lights.

Stripe charges 2.9% + 30c per transaction.

From that, about 1.3% + 5c per tx go to interchange + assessment fees.

This leaves about 1.6% + 25c for the payment processor.

14.3 on 816b is about 1.7% which is consistent.

On 1T, that means about 17b in revenue.

Lets assume they have 7000 employees (i've seen 6000-8000 in searches). As rough estimates, these SFO-based SWEs + knowledge workers cost 1m/yr on average (which includes their total comp, insurance, federal + state taxes, and operating overheads amortized over all employees). So their cost of labor may be around 7-8b/year.

They may have other acquisition and marketing costs, but it means the co can feasibly be earning >8b before taxes, depreciation, amortization, etc.

That number could justify a 80b valuation.

If their current round cap is 55b, then my #s on costs are off, or the multiple has dropped to 6-7. Please debug.

> Absolutely no one ever billed it as an autonomous vehicle

The CEO of Mobileye thought very differently, and walked away from a Tesla partnership after Musk's rhetoric killed someone in 2016[1].

Mobileye CEO Amnon Shashua claiming that Tesla "was pushing the envelope in terms of safety" and that Autopilot is a "driver assistance system" and not a "driverless system"

Musk has been calling it Autopilot since day one, and promising features and safety levels that are completely unobtainable even today.

I sure wish people understood that the driver is in control for all driver assistance systems in vehicles on the road today!

It’s like if you use cruise control, it’s your responsibility as the driver not so let the car crash when that feature is enabled. It’s not an inherent design flaw in cruise control if you screw that up.

If you’re not cool with that, don’t enable this beta system and accept all the warnings.

That's very primitive state of facts. While it is certainly true in many cases, industry changes imposed by "climate change" lobby are resulting in huge redistribution of wealth.

The internet and the options it gives, I believes leads people to think they have far more relationship options then they actually have, and the options they think they have are not as good as they believe. A lot of people put a lot of work in selling a perfect image online, but those rarely hold up in reality for any amount of time.

Of course this doesn't mean we should stay in bad relationships either. Our society doesn't really teach us how to have good relationships, especially in a capitalistic fashion (hey, just spend more money and everything will be ok), and quite a lot of us had really poor examples from our parents generation on how to treat other people.

Rent is expensive, but this subject is a bad example for “needing” a rent decrease. Her issue isn’t rent so much as it’s income and expense based. Disabled husband should have SSI income of $1k/month.

* On the way in. not on the way out.

To me the primary concern is the lack of structural integrity in the railroad system to this situation: the track maintenance and truck maintenance should not make this a recurrance. If its not the first time, it suggests there is a systematic weakness in this model.

Not that "Trains are bad" or "Nuclear is bad" but "if you want to use trains for nuclear waste handling, do basic track maintenance and pre-check it"

I suspect this only made news because of more recent train derailment and accidents. Not that it stands alone as a news story, but because context is everything. Thats how the news cycle works.

Who would buy and develop rental units if landlords didn’t exist?

Landlords seem to fulfill a very valuable part of the supply and demand driven marketplace.

Are you suggesting we eliminate renting altogether and force people to buy?
Depending on the product, sure. However, metals aren’t (as far as I know, there are probably exceptions) metabolized by the GI system, apart from being absorbed in to the bloodstream which would be equivalent to this. I have no idea how it could interact with surrounding tissue, that might be an issue but probably pretty unlikely.

Ah but zones have always existed. Even in don't-tread-on-me Texas you aren't free to just do anything just anywhere.

If you don't like that we all have to share the space and that some places get earmarked for particular uses, and no you aren't free to build a pig farm or even a human farm just anywhere, even if you buy the land, sucks to suck.

Buy all the land in the entire municipality and populate it with people who all vote to change the zoning. Or don't. But complaining that the current residents won't let you in is just not very defensible.
Yes completely agree. But, this car never even pretended to advertise driving itself. Most likely, it advertised plain, vanilla "cruise control." At best, it also advertised lane keeping and radar cruise control.

> Tesla Autopilot is 10x safer than driving without it [0].

No, Autopilot only works in relatively safe conditions where accident rates are already lowest (highway driving). A fair comparison would be accidents per mile for Autopilot vs. Accidents per mile with human drivers in similar conditions, where Autopilot is almost certainly not significantly better, and that's why Tesla doesn't share that data.

> Contradicts the headline, which implies that NHTSA told AP that they had specific reason to believe Autopilot was engaged

Funny story: I have worked at one of the largest non profits in my state.

What I learned was sad. In short: There's motivation to go after grants that you don't even have the resources to facilitate correctly to keep the plane flying.

But the sad truth was the corners they had and were willing to cut I think puts real people at real risk of harm. I had to step away I even gave 3 months advanced notice. Their response. Fire me on the spot.

I really wanted to help, but I had no way of doing so that did not also put me and my family at risk. I just was not willing to keep playing the fool.

That said I would rather work towards something tangible in this world. Too much of what we do is too ephemeral.

At one point in my life (a few years before this non prof work) I had to override the code of a coworker who committed suicide. That moment really put it in to perspective for me.

While the boss was too worried about his exist strategy after this successful sale of this lovely start up. I even ran in to that boss a few times later in life and he would always be so impressed and also so bewildered that I knew people in his circle or that they even knew me.

But it doesn't matter, because putting "Tesla" in the headlines drives people absolutely bananas.

> They should order a property tax reduction. It’s getting clear in cities like Ithaca that landlords pass high property taxes onto tenants quite directly.

I don't believe a property tax reduction gets passed on to tenants. The goal of landlords is to make money, so the incentive is to keep rents as high as possible without having long vacancies; the only reason to reduce rents is if your property is empty.

The hope of a market system is that with lowered expenses, some landlords would reduce their rent, which then allows renters to potentially move to those properties forcing other landlords to reduce rents in turn. This could theoretically happen in a cycle to a new equilibrium where rents have gone down by ~ the reduction in expenses.

But there's a lot of forces in play that interrupt this and allow high rents to continue even with a drop in expenses:

* The vacancy rate is very low, so there are very few landlords that would take advantage of the opportunity to lower their rent to get tenant.

* Landlords know renters can be long term, so often prefer a longer period of vacancy over reducing rent.

* Current renters are captive as moving costs are high, so their landlords are insulated from market pressure.

* The rental market is very coordinated by a) companies that own many properties, b) property management agents that manage many properties and c) rent information companies like RealPage. The result is similar to a cartel, where property owners will allow vacancies directly in order to keep the market rate from falling.

* Many current owners see the property value as a source of growth, and so care less about actual rental income.

All of these mean that a property tax reduction is more of a windfall to landlords than a way to bring down rents.
