Well written imo, and many valuable lessons!


(author here) Thanks! Almost all of those lessons are much easier with 30+ years of hindsight and counter-examples, of course.


Explained at the end of the article:

After a full month of coordinated, decentralised action, the number of articles about Mr. Woodard was reduced from 335 articles to 20. A full decade of dedicated self-promotion by an individual network has been undone in only a few weeks by our community.


Perfect is a strong statement, I do not see that description on the github page?


yeah i'm flagging this trash down. completely editorializing and sensationalising.


I think this is a valid point, the tesla is not necessarily worse than humans. This whole test setup is built around the advantages of lidar which of course will detect the obstacle.

Also, bruno has a custom declarative API request DSL that is suitable for text-based editing, complementing the usage in the GUI application.

With autonomy you do not need a one-fit-all vehicle that support many different use cases.

Instead you have access to a fleet of specialized vehicles that are optimized for different tasks. Eg many trips might still be with only one or two passangers, and then a small two seater makes a lot of sense. If you need larger capacity you simple order a ride from a suitable vehicle class.


People interested in this should also make sure to checkout Hylo, https://www.hylo-lang.org

There are several presentations on the design and mechanisms. Eg

This is very cool!

A bit disappointing that this does not get more attention on HN. Using WASM as a sandboxed embedded compute environment has so many use cases outside the browser.

For example extensions/plugins in code editors is another very interesting use case.


This is definitely some creepy behaviour by the tech lead, but how is it sexual assault? This just deflates the meaning of sexual assault to mean any kind of "uncomfortable assault"?


Also because xitter provides a broader discussion platform and reach compared to only HN (even though I highly appreciate the HN content). But yeah, the xitter post should preferably also contain that url to the source.
