Not saying that what's happening with ICE is okay. But it's a very sheltered view to think that is at all equivalent to what happens in those countries if you actively protest against the govt.
Same goes the other way of course. Republicans would be much more against it.
You really think if the US wasn't supporting Israel, no one would have cared about Gaza?
Of course then the right would be protesting foreign interventions.
But Central Africa, Venezuela, Iran, Cuba, etc? Extreme suffering. But the activists don't activate.
I think it's just an instinct to oppose anything the current administration supports. Same with Cuba and Venezuela.
But it consistently aligns them with some of the most suppressive regimes.
Venezuelans are glad Maduro is gone. Iranians want the US to do something. Lots of Cubans as well.
Show me the Fascism, please.
Just because you can develop and/or run something locally on the cheap, doesn’t mean it’ll have the same value.
Waymos get stuck in weird situations every day. They need intervention, even on their guardrails. FSD is of course not perfect, but yes they have obviously cracked the code (it’s obvious if you use it or get beyond the groupthink here), and are being cautious with turning off supervision requirements. As they should.
They will turn of the supervision requirements soon, and suddenly there will be hundreds of thousands of teslas that can drive themselves.
The skepticism is hard to get.
Waymos are geofenced, restricted to certain roads, and have remote humans in the loop at lot more than most people assume.
Waymo is too deep in their complex hardware stack to do a hard about face at the moment.
