So what? There is no justification for comparing the Tesla highway 'autopilot' accident rate to the human general driving rate. Except statistical lies to make Tesla look better.
You can't, in fact, mathematically model the most basic system in full detail.
A computer is incapable of modeling a simple pendulum. It must model a greatly simplified version. No string mass, stretch, or break, point mass, no change in G force etc.
Accurately modeling a single nerve cell junction is still far beyond our capabilities. Statistical methods must be used to model synapse chemistry.
You can of course write down difference equations for all those factors, but you'll never get a closed form solution. Difference equations are by definition approximations. Those approximations rapidly become computationally impossible to solve in the life of the universe even with quantum computers.
Then there's Heisenberg uncertainty to make things really interesting. Model me a synapse, just one...
Not that again: Once again, the only stats that show Tesla safer than human drivers compares Tesla divided highway driving (the safest kind of driving) with human driving in general.
It's an obvious statistical lie. Stop repeating it. If you're going to repeat it, go for the gusto...include driving in Mumbai, compare it to the world accident rate.
Because IKEA gaming EU tax laws is somehow better than Apple gaming global tax laws?
It's obvious to all that the EU is just extorting..."That's a mighty fine company you've got there, sure would be a shame if it was cut off from the EU market." Until the USA turns it around on EU companies the eurotrash will continue their extortion.
Just as predators make herds of animals more healthy by killing the slow and weak, beer makes your brain more healthy by killing the slow and weak brain cells.
Dealers make fuckall on warranty work. They have to keep the suckers around after the warranty to make bucks.
That's starting to fail, nobody stays that stupid forever. As new car buyers keep their cars longer, they wake up, one by one. Used car buyers, as a group, never took their cars to dealerships for work.
In the 80s much of the economic growth moved to the underdeveloped parts of the world. China, India, eastern Europe, Brazil etc.
They have a mixed record of putting the growth to good use. Don't ignore the successes. Eastern Europe is full of them. They still have cheap costs, but have growing 'consumer classes'. China is the obvious 300 pound gorilla in the room, they will find their own way, eventually. India? The same, but different.
But in the long run what were we (the developed world) going to do? Developed world middle class takes a beating, developing world middle class gets it's start (where corruption doesn't doom the effort). Economics is working, but putting it too bluntly gets you ignored, as the short term losers have votes.
It all turns on China. They have a banking mess, real estate and stock bubble to clear in the short run. Capital flight from China is creating a real estate bubble on the west coast of North America. That could turn real ugly...when the Chinese middle class realize they've been boned by the exchange rate peg (lose half the value of their hard snuck-out overseas investments at about the same time their domestic holdings take a beating).
You'd have to believe that they were more likely to not investigate white murder victims vs blacks to believe white crime is undercounted.
In fact clearance (% solved) rates are higher for white victims. The police will tell you it's because the black community doesn't cooperate, BLM will tell you it's because black victims don't matter. They are both right (black victims apparently don't matter to the black community).
I'm also going to guess that the whole 'under-investigating rapes' is agenda driven statistical lies anyhow.
AOL died because, eventually, even their customers got smarter. The inertia that kept them going for a few last years was that AOLers had their social life on AOL chat rooms.
AOL was a ripoff for the entire time it existed. It's not like the dialup version was a good value.
You could, perhaps, get close enough on a boat. Making such a shot from a moving boat would be a huge challenge and I'm willing to bet the Coast Guard would be on your ass for being there. On land, you're going to have to get the rifle past security and still have an almost impossible shot. Short of ninjaing your way into the launch complex itself.
It's a great cleaning liquid, amazing. The reaction when they mix is inhibited by light. So mix it up indoors, in a room without windows. You're going to want a lot, so get the two biggest bottles you can find.
I suspect it's a conspiracy by the cleaning industrial complex to keep this formula secret.
Not sure I can recognize a surface mount cap at a glance. I bet they are still there. Sure the busses are better tuned, but at the end of the day, caps fix many things.

How do you tell the difference between a blowing plastic bag and a bouncing kid's ball on a side street?
Highways are the easy part of the automated driving problem.

In practice, if you are caught, they make you put the power robbing equipment back on. That is all.
At a very low rate.
Found 'sexual harassment panda'.
Bullshit, GP is right.

An inflatable doll still costs about $30 and gets you carpool lane access.

Which is why unenforced laws are such dangerous things.
When we are all criminals, we can all be arrested at the discretion of the authorities.
How many pages are added to the US federal/EU law books every year?
That's just sad.

If you don't feel the impulse to spread your genes when travelling, there is something wrong with you. It's a Darwin thing.
Directly applies to males only, females have a similar impulse to collect 'Sancho' genes though.

Follow the instruction to the letter and try to make ricin. You will die.
At best the book was written by an addled hippie, at worst it was deliberate.
The Anarchist's Cookbook is dangerously WRONG on many things.
Disinformation is exactly the right word.

Try mixing ammonia and bleach.

Priceless: Having the whole network vulnerable to a single exploit.
All the vendors want you to go 'one stop shopping'. That should make you a little uncomfortable.

Beats was just a perfect fit for apple.
Crap product at premium price...what's not to love?
'The Anarchist's Cookbook' was written before floppy disks.
Perhaps you're thinking of records.
More important: 'The Anarchist's Cookbook' is full of disinformation that can get you killed.
AOL lasted about 10 years before the chumps at Time/Warner (overpaid for it/accepted AOL stock). Millions of users etc.
It took about another year or two before even morons (e.g. Ted Turner) could see how bad a move TW had made.
