However. In the USA, there may be reasons for wearing a gun - for example if you have the right carry permit and are simply confused as to what state/... you are in, or if you can wear it in the airport.

It really doesn't. If you're (for example) Tesla - there is no way in hell you're paying someone to insure for liabilities up to a few million per incident. You carry that risk yourself - with perhaps a small policy for exceptional circumstances (say you're found culpably negligent for a hacker attack that kills 10000)
There is no reason that could not also be provided by the company. The remainder would be a conventional policy for the times you're driving manually. Perhaps rather different due to all the data available.

It's an inherent part of their case that they are intimately related. There is no bright-line seperating out APIs and code. And indeed, they won a partial victory on this, in that the decision states that there can be _unfair_ use of APIs. Their argument is simply that this judgement means that another judge (because there is no bright line) could determine that using (say) half or 90% of the linux kernel against GPL restrictions could be 'fair use'. Should this be bullshit - yes. Is it - well - it relies on courts acting rationally.
Not quite. The judge could (amongst other things) as I understand it have ruled it was fair use, have ruled it was infringing - or dismissed the case because it was not a copyrightable matter. The best case would be the latter. The first is still extremely problematic for devs, though for a very different reason the shill above claims. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/...

The study design is worse than that. Firstly - it adjusts the power so that the wattage per gram is over the whole body. As a comparison - to do the same with a human with a phone and 6W/kg, would need a 600W or so transmitter (average). (mobile phones typically peak at 2). It would be so much power it would make you about as warm as sunlight falling on your skin.
In humans, there are several major differences in real life, and in the standard used. Firstly, it is the peak absorbtion of the gram or ten (US or EU) that is absorbing most signal. This means that even neglecting hours a day of usage, small movements around the head, or using it in a different ear will dramatically reduce the time at peak SAR. Secondly 'develop heart tumors' - if you look at page 12 of the study, a real problem emerges. They say 'therefore organs other than the heart were examined for tumors'... 'were observed in the head and neck and other sites throughout the body'.
But. Then they present a table, specifically breaking out 'heart' - which shows an apparent effect, from 'others' which really don't. They do not - for example - show line entries in the tables for 'head' 'neck'.
This is a problem because if you take 20 sites throughout the body, and then analyse them against the control, even with no effect, you will often get an apparently statistically significant result. This would be less concerning if the numbers were larger - however one more or less rat in the control group getting cancer of the heart (or other parts) would skew this to significant or insignificance.
Secondly, their control rats did not live as long as they historically should have, compared to other studies.

“There is a pertinent story about a man who was working on an oil platform in the North Sea. He woke up one night from a loud explosion, which suddenly set his entire oil platform on fire. In mere moments, he was surrounded by flames. Through the smoke and heat, he barely made his way out of the chaos to the platform’s edge. When he looked down over the edge, all he could see were the dark, cold, foreboding Atlantic waters.
As the fire approached him, the man had mere seconds to react. He could stand on the platform, and inevitably be consumed by the burning flames. Or, he could plunge 30 meters in to the freezing waters. The man was standing upon a “burning platform,” and he needed to make a choice.

Your USB plug and socket have both gotten wet. Drying the phone is of course needed, but you also need to unplug from the charger, and leave the cord to dry, or it will be damaged and corrode.
Due to unfortunate design problems - we do not know about the population of earth-like planets in earth-like orbits around sun-like stars.
Kepler was designed on the assumption that stars that look spectrally similar to the sun were similar to it. Unfortunately, they're not, and they flicker considerably more. This means that detecting small planets by the dips in light intensity is hard. For planets orbiting close in, or orbiting smaller stars, this is mitigated. But due to this Kepler cannot pick up earth-like planets in earth-like orbits around sun-like stars, meaning we have a dearth in the statistics.

From the point of view of Tesla - they are not required to be insured by a company you do not wholly own.
It really doesn't.

There are many commercial entities that would be overjoyed to finance Tesla some billions based on the outstanding pre-order book.
Because no other governments in the world will decide this is a good idea.
Wait 4 years till the import restriction legislation gets passed and kicks in.
