"data suggests Tesla Robotaxis are crashing once every 40,000 miles, whereas the average human driver in the US crashes about once every 500,000 miles" that's just really really bad sherwood.news/tech/teslas-...

the most recent data shows Waymo's self-driving cars perform significantly *better* than human drivers. the most recent data shows Tesla Robotaxis perform significantly *worse* than human drivers, even with a safety monitor in the front seat. sherwood.news/tech/teslas-...

I'm imagining an instructor somewhere making a syllabus with chat gpt, assigning reading from books that don't exist But the students don't notice, because they are asking chat gpt to summarize the book or write the essay

My favorite of these is a video where Richter runs up, rock music playing, the blood-red speech bubble renders, and Dracula just throws the glass and goes "FUCK"

will every NFL game have a moment of silence or is that only for white supremacists who were presenting a racist rationale for our unfettered gun massacre culture when shot

I think it's kind of beautiful that this was Rob Reiner's final line on television

the right attitude

"He took every Advanced Placement class he could, earned a scholarship to Brown and worked at Wawa over the summer to make enough money to buy a laptop, according to his two sisters."

Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

not the kind of behavior I expect from the winner of the fifa peace prize

Just a reminder that at least 600 Americans were fired for failing to show sufficient respect after Charlie Kirk's murder.

The media is entirely responsible for Donald Trump in our lives and Elon Musk as well. Real engineers and scientists knew he was a moron long ago. I was told repeatedly by my brother and his nerds at JPL that Elon was a dolt. But tech press don't know shit either and access is the name of the game.

This is what he says when doesn’t care about the people who died

Clear cut case of two people who are famous for getting yelled at on twitter thinking literally anyone normal knows who they are

Grok is... grokking again

ryan murphy wishes he could touch the hem of "waxwork. he is not even allowed to be in the same room

The entire second half of my thirties is powered by this soundtrack (and the sequel)

Michael C. Rockefeller got shipwrecked in 1963, washed up on an island, and was promptly eaten by cannibals.

I wonder if there's a market here for viewers wanting every show to be a puzzle box and @innuendostudios.bsky.social's expertise with Adventure Games maybe there are games that would be especially well-adapted to an 8-episode arc? an adult Blue's Clues that's a manicured Let's Play?

lmao

It was genuinely an honor to meet Mr. Chavarria at Tuesday's hearing. His story is incredible; grew up in a refugee camp in Honduras, graduated as a valedictorian at 15, got scholarships in the US, met his husband here, became a US citizen, and is now a school superintendent in Vermont.

Also this though. Never misses

Honestly from the first 15 seconds I thought I would hate this way more. If you can trick parents into taking their kids to see a movie where corruption and greed ruin a utopia, I'm for it IMO the most important part is that the bad guys win and everyone leaves horrified

Agree and like the articulation, but want to remind folks this is similar to the audition problem Many actors and singers are better at auditioning then being part of a production Ditto skilled grant writers vs the projects. Interviewing vs. the job

I'm pretty anti-AI but I've had family members come to be asking me why it never finds what they're after, then I write a much more clear prompt, and get a correct answer

"He now leads a team reviewing the role of women in the armed forces."

god, boy boy don’t miss.

When Hunter S. Thompson ran for sheriff of Aspen — this will always be one of my favorite political anecdotes

the small language model arrived

I'm missing NYC so hard with the guys coming out and shaking things up. Brad was such a king during the mayoral race, a friend to NY for a very long time

I love it as a performance but tbh I don't know if I relate to it, or view what it's speaking to as the cause of the very problems I'm mad at

“If the person is a U. S. citizen or otherwise lawfully in the United States, that individual will be free to go after the brief encounter.” -Brett Kavanaugh

These “woke” regulations were over 50 years old!

its so crazy that young people became less interested in movies & tv at the same time weird tech guys mostly started deciding what gets made

The real question is not "Why is Bluesky so left-coded," the real question is "Why can't the right exist in a social media environment without algorithmic assistance, where people can ignore them"

I love the fact that Jordan Peterson wrote multiple books telling people how they need to live their lives while simultaneously having his own life constantly spiraling out of control.

techbros learning how a thermos works by blowing up a trillion dollars worth of shit in space

I think they learned from the Greenland/Canada/Mexico annexation talk that they just shouldn't shop their plans to the public and just try to do them and see who stops them

I blamed my move to CA for observing this more, but I fear this rejection of caffeine has implanted into most high-education sectors and it has to fucking stop growing up, having coffee with dessert at dinner was normal. quit being afraid to live, you ninnies

“They know me here”

Unions with sharp teeth coming shortly after, hopefully

Wow, Fette Sau, the Williamsburg barbecue place that was the subject of one of the worst headline/photo combinations in the history of online media, is closing www.instagram.com/p/DR7xa9zkdG...

Will Arnett was on Conan and told a story about how Conan dealt with the death of his parents by accusing Jason Bateman of killing them. It’s so funny.
