mavhc··on Tesla seeks to guard crash data from public disclosure
They do make a lot of hybrids, but not mentioned in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_emissions_scandal

So as long as you think China's production methods are morally fine, and don't mind them being in control of your car's software, pick BYD

We need to increase the cost of everything to account for all externalities. This will also encourage people to invent things to reduce the cost of the externalities, win win

I assume they'd be confused that if their test project produced good results, why wasn't it widely replicated?

They're mostly too expensive because they're rare

Because people don't read reviews and do like dumb action flicks. Netflix will put it on the home screen and people will click on it

Should we ban people from taking the train? They get a different experience, but they still get an experience

Oh, you mean copyright infringement, not theft
mavhc··on Waymos crash less than human drivers
Same as humans, drive slow enough that you can stop when you see something ahead. As demonstrated Lidar doesn't work in rain either.

Buy a cheap EV. Remove the antenna, privacy problem solved. Use your phone for satnav and streaming audio via bluetooth. Same as with a TV, you get it cheaper because they're expecting you to subscribe, so you don't and profit.

mavhc··on Tesla Cybertruck deliveries on hold as trims are flying off 'bulletproof' truck
Unless they've already done the changes.

I'm not sure the 20% cost reduction is for a new thing, as they were talking about the difficulty of making a 20% cost reduction to all their cars just as standard practice recently

mavhc··on Tesla Cybertruck deliveries on hold as trims are flying off 'bulletproof' truck
Same with Cybertruck, Font size is wrong, tpms light doesn't stay on if you power cycle the truck, a mirror camera opens slowly all minor software fixes, which leaves "used the wrong glue" twice, inverter problem, and windscreen motor overheating.

Point is ever car has loads of recalls, some don't get clicks so aren't reported much

FSD is getting better each year. SpaceX has the lowest cost rockets and working on even lower cost rockets. They have the most efficient Semi and are building a factory to mass produce them. Neuralink has multiple successful human trials. And they've built robots and have the AI training for them to navigate the world

> There has been some mention of a low cost EV, but I don't think we've seen sign of that yet. Last I heard was that it was cancelled.

From that same earnings call "We are still on track to launch a more affordable model in the first half of 2025 and will continue to expand our lineup from there."

Hyundai change their OS every other year, no chance of long term software updates.

Rivian's spin off to licence their OS may end up being the Android of cars to Tesla's iOS
