Your Dad cannot fully self drive (I am a huge fan of Tesla FSD given that no other equivalent option exists in the market at that price point, but I have had to take over and drive it, at least as of the most recent free demo last Christmas season).

A more objective definition is any entity that is not willing to take on the financial liabilities of driving is not capable of full self driving. The minute Tesla says they agree to take on full liability is the minute I buy and use FSD for all of my trips.

It’s much free-r than it used to be, when the paper on a pole and paying for a newspaper ad was the only option.

Even if they didn’t deliver FSD, the data says they delivered something people are choosing to pay $100 per month for.

>Myth: Smelling an allergen can trigger anaphylaxis.

>Fact: While people often don’t like the smell of a food they’re allergic to, smell does not provoke an allergic reaction...While smells can linger in the air, the allergen proteins do not, which is why smelling a food will not trigger anaphylaxis.

>Allergic reactions to airborne peanut proteins are rare and cannot be predicted by high levels of IgE-antibodies to peanut or Ara h 2. Only small amounts of biologically active peanut proteins were detected in the air and seem unlikely to trigger moderate/severe allergic reactions.

It is only by giving people too much and too little chemotherapy that humans figured out the dosages and regimens that optimize survival and minimize relapse rates.

I think about it a lot when I see kids in the pediatric cancer ward, and what decision I would make for myself, versus the decision to subject a child to very painful treatments to kill the cancer. And how mine only has a good prognosis because so many others went through hell, and didn’t survive.

Nurse staffing ratios are 1 nurse to 2 kids or less, we get private rooms with a bed for parents, broadband wifi, and extensive food menu to order room service from all day. We also have the email addresses of our oncologists, 24/7 phone number to oncology department, and we got opinions from 4 other cancer centers in the country to confirm treatment was appropriate (luckily there is a lot of data).

It wasn’t until iphone 3G in 2008 that you had a full fledged browser with unlimited broadband capable of streaming audio, maps, and visiting websites with graphics. And, of course, new apps coming out everyday.

The battery was also not good enough to use long for a long time.

I don’t care so much for specific delivery dates (although they are a plus). Most important are free returns. Hence, I prioritize shopping at Costco/Target/Walmart/Home Depot/Lowes/Old Navy/Amazon/etc.

There still seems to be a wide gulf in automation capabilities and things that require human dexterity, such as doing things for the infirm. Even just cooking and laundry seem quite a bit away. I guess the original tweet does mention this:

>Capability peaks in domains that are digital, verifiable and economically valuable.

Driving is the most impressive one so far, in my opinion.

In the US, all patents have 20 year terms (from initial patent filing). Of course, patents don’t tell you how to make something, so it’s not sufficient for something like smartphones or medicine.
