What Tesla is (falsely IMO) advertising as "full self driving" is available in all new Mercedes vehicles as well and works anywhere in the US.

Mercedes is in the news for expanding that functionality to a level where they are willing to take liability if the vehicle causes a crash during this new mode. Tesla does not do that.

I'd wager most people, when talking about a plane's autopilot mean the follow waypoints or Autoland capability.

Also, it's hard to argue "full self driving" means anything but the car is able to drive fully autonomously. If they were to market it as "advanced driver assist" I'd have no issue with it.

Only if the goal is reproduction. You need to survive to reproduce.

If the goal is maximum damage for the least amount of economic cost then a suicide (anthropomorphizing the drone here) can very much make sense.

No one would argue that a sword is better than guns or bombs, because you still have the sword after attacking.

For what it's worth, smoking was probably banned because of the fire risk and how easily it annoys people nearby. Alcohol is much more contained and mostly affects the person who directly consumes it.

Though I agree, considering how high the safety standards are in aviation, having people on board that are under the influence of drugs seems like something that should be banned.

The reason this gets attention is because it's the first level 3 sold to consumers.

The tech is hard, of course it's gonna start out with laughingly limited capabilities. But it's the first step towards more automation.

Yes, but it's actually level 3.

Not the Tesla "full self driving - no wait we actually lied to you, you need to be alert at all times" bullshit.

The video has a short section on productivity (i.e. rendering or compiling). That part is probably the most relevant for most people. Check the chapter view in YouTube to jump directly to it.

I think a 2x performance improvement is plausible when comparing non-soldered ram to the Apple silicon, which goes even further and has the memory on the die itself. If, of course, ram is the limiting factor.

The advantages of upgradable, expandable ram are obvious. But let's face it: most people don't need and even less use that capability.

I understand the scepticism, but without links of what you've found or which parts in particular you consider dubious claims (ram speed can be increased when soldered, higher speeds lead to better performance, etc) it comes across as "i don't believe you, because i choose to not believe you"

LTT has made a comparison video on ram speeds: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b-WFetQjifc

Do you need proof that soldered ram can be made to run faster?

I'm pretty sure when searching with AI the model gets told "here are five articles about , summarize them and answer the following question: <top 5 search results from a traditional search engine>"

Why was that downvoted, it's true.

Backing out of a parking spot is comparatively dangerous, because you can't see if anyone is approaching from the side.

A basic image is really easy. It's basically just

Dockerfile

FROM debian  # start with a minimal Linux system. There are probably better options than debian. Some images are made especially for docker (i.e. very minimal and light weight). 
RUN apt install dependencies  # do what ever you need to get your app running. 
RUN echo "options and stuff" >> /etc/a/config/file  # you can also edit system files
COPY . /app  # copy your project into the docker container.
EXPOSE 8080  # doesn't actually do anything, but documents where the app will be listening
CMD server-binary run /app/main.php  # I have actually no idea how php server stuff works

(Docs https://docs.docker.com/reference/dockerfile/)

Then people can run your project with docker.

Edit: checking the readme some small changes would be required. Config.php should read in environment variables and the DB init SQL should be run automatically somehow.

Thanks, It actually does, because the conversation factor is easy.

2e27 Å2 = 2e7 m2 = 20 km2

So an area 5km by 4km. You can now easily compare it to the size of your neighborhood, town or city.
