gorango··on Why Writing by Hand Is Better for Memory and Learning
Just have to use the pen(cil) more. Make it fun: drawing, lettering, doodling - it all translates to handwriting itself.

You're probably right that fatalities per collision is off but plug in your own numbers and then divide by ten... the point still stands. Autopilot has saved countless lives. And it was architected by a very small team, led by this one man. But I'll admit, the comparison with doctors is a little hyperbolic. Although in a few years of growth and global scale, who knows...?

You are absolutely correct - Tesla's own report acknowledges this, but it also highlights how this safety stat is dwarfed when autopilot is active: https://tesla-cdn.thron.com/delivery/public/image/tesla/5f93...

What's ridiculous about stats? A Tesla with autopilot or FSD is more than 10x less likely to be in a collision, based on various US agencies stats. Average chance of collision is 1 in 366 for every 1000 miles driven. Something like 1 in 20000 of those result in fatalities. Now, take millions of Teslas equipped with any assisted-driving tech, multiply by miles driven, include the above averages, and divide by ten. Doctors would be jelly.

Perhaps you can elaborate on what strikes you as ridiculous about fairly straightforward stats? Surprised to see you on a ML thread...

What do you mean by "however"? He built the entire FSD architecture - in less time and with fewer people than Google, Apple, and god knows who else. He's likely saved more lives than most doctors at this point...

Integration with infrastructure-as-code tools would be really interesting. Interpolation of standards.

I believe this is a matter of individual preference and I think providing users with options to change these mechanics would be great! I 100% agree that center mouse + move should pan. But I also prefer the current scroll and I would like Shift+Scroll to scroll horizontally (as it does on any other web page).
