New comment by jaesonaras in "Waymo Safety Impact"

I just watched a short that said some (all) Waymo drivers are not autonomous, but remote controlled by humans in the Phillipines.

I'm sure it's a combination of both since the latency would mean immediate reactions are impossible, but the presenter raised an interesting point, and that was that the remote drivers are not licensed to drive in the states that Waymo operated in, which would make it illegal.

Just ban lobby groups. Politicians are public servants, not corporate servants.

Civilization does not collapse from the edges, but rot from the center — in our case when middle management silences vision, and shareholders trade legacy for dividends.

I still can't justify using Tailwind. It's not that I don't like it, but I find CSS does everything I need and more, and I do some pretty complex styling and animations in CSS.

I just find that at some point, Tailwind gets in the way and I revert back to plain CSS. TW invariably then just becomes another style src in the HTML.

I know a few people are ruining democracy for us.
