jesus what is the pitch and roll on that drone boat, that sea looks pretty busy. i'm kinda like, 'is that real?'

but let's compare with the video of soviet russia doing it 60 years ago.

oops

🚨🚨🚨
Tesla Model 3 plows info overturned truck on highway. I’m sure the driver was paying complete attention to the road and wasn’t relying on autopilot because he was told the car could drive itself....$TSLAQ pic.twitter.com/cHjueqH0j4

did he died

every human being in that video seems like a bad driver

not even injured xp https://insideevs.com/news/426312/video-tesla-crash-stopped-truck

good cars confirmed

it seems the Autopilot system has some issues in detecting stationary objects

details, details

All cars are bad

On the plus side, there was no gas tank to burst into flames.

the autopilot knew he'd survive and learn something important about trusting autopilot -- a lesson that could save his life someday.

or perhaps the autopilot ai takes twitter input and made a different optimization that failed

i’m so thoroughly pissed at this reality and the “i’m sure x” OP, and also aware of the difference, that i wanna throw up my hands and answer “i hope it happens to you.” to be sure i really don’t, but ftw.

and by OP i mean the twunt, not lagoon tbc.

it wld never happen to me the autopilot looks out for me

a visionary:

This will probably get me into trouble, but I feel I have to say it

Talk about ahead of the curve...

at least richard epstein has stopped running his mouth on twitter

I remember thinking to myself the first time one of youse posted the article about people stocking up on supplies that "come on, we're just prepping for the worst, it won't be anywhere near as bad as we fear".

this is one of those rare times where it exceeded our imaginations.

at least richard epstein doesn't have fanboys harassing anyone who questions his idiocy

Well there’s still plenty of stuff to buy is the good news.

Good replies to this tweet from the “pedo guy” guy

Please take a moment to report accounts clearly engaged in harassment. It is the only way to maintain public discourse.

Fair play that’s a high stock price

what the fuck how did it quadruple since the start of the pandemic

he tells the stock market what he thinks their price should be and they comply and this is somehow ok

a major tesla accounting scandal seems very much in play

i honestly think it's just robinhood/reddit/andrew yang people who are bored because there's no sports to bet on

Almost 40,000 Robinhood users added Tesla to their accounts over a four-hour span on Monday https://t.co/cfGHBQjAzL

gonna need yerac to talk me down from opening a margin account to bet against these guys

gambling’s dumb

No doubt

it will happen, but you don't know when

gambling is especially dumb when the other side is powered by hubris not reality.

hard to bet into a guy who doesn't even know he's bluffing

silby i think u shd do it

(keeping in mind that u can losing infinite money shorting)

robinhood stores your money is stored in a signed 16 bit int so it actually goes positive after a while

Oh nice

I did try to short Tesla once, but you couldn't borrow the shares, so I bought a put instead. It took a little dip and I got nervous and sold it for a small profit. Then it dipped more and I felt dumb. Then it bounced higher again and I felt lucky. The nice thing about buying a put is your downside is limited, but unlike shorting, there's a time limit on the bet.

the stock market in general seems to have not absorbed the info that were in the early stages of the worst economic crisis ever

tbf neither has pretty much anyone else. even before the pandemic we'd reached a crisis of capital where too many goods were chasing too few dollars, searching the globe for investment opportunities and just inventing them from whole cloth if necessary, and now demand has dropped off a cliff. millions of jobs aren't coming back. we're still running on a short-term stimulus package and furlough supports that will all go away really soon, and the same is true for most of the world. it's a zombie economy and i'm not sure it's too dramatic to say it's a zombie society

it is absolutely a zombie society

the zombie apocalypse is us

lol

Population collapse is 2nd biggest danger to civilization after AI imo
