how long till DOGE decides the agency investigating is government waste?
Is doge still around?
it’s still around for sure. dunno what they’re doing now, I think they’re laying low and hoping donny forgets he’s paying them a paycheck
That was Donnys way to scratch Elon’s back for helping with the campaign. After the back stabbing and subsequent fall out, I’m sure Elon took all his people out.
WHY THE FUCK ARE PEOPLE STILL EXPECTING THIS GARBAGE TO WORK? Tesla’s “full self driving” crashes have been widely covered. Is it simple ignorance? Are they not aware of the news? Is it stubbornness? Laziness? Thinking that “it won’t happen to me”? Do they sincerely believe Musk’s lies?
I know that victim blaming isn’t the answer, and that’s not what I’m doing. I just want to know what’s going on in their heads.
People don’t know about the unreliability of such systems. They also don’t know how simple Tesla’s autopilot is compared to other systems.
As a person who has used OpenCV before, I would never trust a computer vision system. I maybe could trust LiDAR based systems as those can see 3 dimensionally but that’s a big “maybe”.
The weirdest part to me is that one apple engineer who died in a tesla crash. I have no idea how an engineer working in a software company could trust that thing

Because many of us are fucking morons. I had one colleague who was writing the control software for a baseball-throwing machine. Despite being way past the deadline and way over budget, the client asked him to create a special version of the software so the machine could be used with Little League teams. He decided to do his first test of this version on a field with actual Little Leaguers on it, which resulted in a 125 mph knuckleball (no spin at all so incredibly erratic in flight) a foot above a 10-year-old kid’s head. Which resulted in the only time in my programming career that I had to physically intervene to prevent a fistfight between two people (my boss and the client).
propaganda/advertising works
I still personally know multiple people who still think those are awesome cars.
They’re otherwise educated, intelligent people!
I really don’t comprehend.
Engage N64 Kalimari Desert mode.
That explains them trying to drive through solid fences over and over again
Is that this Hyperloop thing Musk was talking about?
That’s a tunnel in Las Vegas, and last I heard it was seeping toxic waste that causes severe chemical burns into said tunnel.
Pretty sure he got public funding for that stunt, too.
Vegas people love getting conned.
a tunnel in Las Vegas
No that’s the Loop. No one has built a hyperloop yet, beyond a few short test tracks.
“Full self driving”
