If you design a system thinking people will use it wrong, and then have a warning label, but an excessive amount of people use it wrong. Likely you'll be punished.
Basically though, "speech was slurred, smelled alcohol" will pass muster in general. Police eyewitness is good enough evidence, as is a traffic violation in general.
In PA the field breathalyzer is about establishing probable cause to take one to the station, but there is a calibrated one at the police station that you cannot refuse and works as evidence in court.
My number is the cost of financing that 10k over 30 years (high interest rate mortgage+escrow).
The 10k comes from the critics estimated cost increase, I think it's fair to use that number.
The question is how much does it reduce the electric bill, and how much will maintenance be. It's entirely in the realm of possibility the electric savings will out weigh the maintenance plus mortgage cost.
My 60-70 month was a high end estimate of the mortgage increase (plus escrow). I have no concept of what the savings would be, but it seems possible it would pay for itself.
My electric+gas varies 150-250/month (summer/winter). If this saves half of that it's a no brainer (should easily cover the maintenance).
I suspect much of CA has lower bills though, our summers are hot and our winter's cold (relative to their), but also electricity is expensive there.
Retrofitting solar is often a savings in the long run when financed at higher rates even, so it seems incredibly possible that designed in it will be even more so.
The downside is that the mortgage increase will make it harder to qualify, as they won't take into account the savings when calculating. You shouldn't buy a house you were tens of dollars a month away from maxing out approval anyway though.
For example ag went from 80% of the jobs to under 10%
Sure, that's better in the long run, but a lot of people suffered as it happened. If 70% (or 20-40%, the summary states both) of bank jobs go away, it's going to suck for a lot of people.
The Octopus is not raised by parents, and is not social, and yet as far as animals go seems quite smart.
It is (I believe) unique in this way. Other "smart" animals are social and learn from each other, and/or their parents, the Octopus is just born smart, it's all instinct.
Is that really enough of a risk to really worry about (if we buy the premise that reaold tickets suck, I don't).
It'd only be relevant in the situation that the computer doesn't work AND the enough of the venue's systems work for the show to go on. That seems like it'd be a rather rare occurrence.
If that did come to pass, they could probably pretend they're checking and just let everyone in. If a problem arises, then check against a printed copy of the list and check thouroughly.

The Toureg was sold as a real SUV.
The advertises had it driving over rocks and stuff.
the Model X as far as I can tell is being sold as a large luxury hatchback.
Considering it's a crossover and not a truck, I'm impressed.

Is Corning no longer the obvious best glass?
That's news to me. Janky phones still seem to advertise it (albiet old).
I figured it may be a troll/sarcastic.
I am a fan of Tesla, and want them to succeed, but I think they really oversold autopilot, and now it appears their engineers thought they did too.
They absolutely are.
In this specific business decision they chose to ignore the engineers and do something that appears to be dangerous.
At least vs other systems that do lane keeping and follow distance.
If they're related to this project, is that necessarily true?
I keep reading about a shortage in AI people that will take a few years to be met.
Seems like a terrible idea to make a phone a mesh node (is that what an individual piece is called?).
Aside from the battery usage, I assume their is a space requirement for extra antennas.
I think the problem was that they weren't connected enough to the greater grid.
That's why the battery was needed, it was the cheaper solution.
That holds, to carrying degrees around here.

Refusal to submit is a worse crime with equivalent insurance consequences. It does not keep your record clean.
They have judges at sobriety check points for just that reason.
That's not true on the east coast.
In states around here, refusal to test is as bad as the worst alcohol score AND there is no first offender/pbj program.
Depends on where.

If the $10,000 is an accurate number, it will likely make houses more affordable.
That's about $60-$70 month (on a mortgage), seems likely that's covered by electicity savings.
I'm sure installing solar when building is cheaper than retrofitting it, so it seems to make sense to me.
Why did every software developer (well Linux, Apple, and MS) get this wrong, yet AMD got it right?
That's interesting to me, it seems like Intel and AMD share more than just docs (which makes sense, but still interesting).
Many of the jobs were taken.
For example ag went from 80% of the jobs to under 10%

I've purchased the legend of Zelda a few times for sure.
At the very least, NES, GameCube, WII.
It was $6 on the WII, a fair price to not need to out in a disk IMO. Though also, kinda annoying.
I'm pretty excited because it seems like it will make it quite easy to use regex to filter.
Currently, I have to either use google sheets, or contort something that abuses functions to get some filters done.
They give me "survey call" as caller ID sometimes now too, not just "scam likely"

Either:
1) AI is impossible
2) it will happen from learning
3) it will happen from programming.
Option two seems most likely of the three, even if not in my lifetime.
Aside from the octopus, pretty much every intelligent animal gets it from learning.
