According to Wikipedia, he should have a criminal trial in Germany starting this year, so it’s possible he will still get sentenced there as well.

Most frustrating thing is, as far as I can tell, Tesla doesn’t even have binocular vision, which makes all the claims about humans being able to drive with vision only even more blatantly stupid. At least humans have depth perception. And supposedly their goal is to outperform humans?
Given it’s samsung, I doubt they have the time to have a crisis. Work hours for Korean tech companies can be quite insane, e.g. https://koreajoongangdaily.joins.com/news/2024-06-08/business/industry/Samsung-implements-64hour-workweek-as-falling-sales-usher-crisis-mode/2063906
Has to be Outer Wilds for me. I can’t think of any other game that would have left such an impact on me, in such a short amount of time.
I’ve been wondering the same about a lot of right wing economic policy. Why push for policy that is a net negative for everyone in the long run? I have since realized that it does make sense if you don’t look at it in terms of wealth, but rather in terms of power. The control you have over other people doesn’t depend on your absolute wealth, but rather the relative wealth you have compared to others, and so for someone looking for that kind of power (i.e. most billionaires as far as I can tell) it wouldn’t matter if something they do hurts everybody, as long as it hurts you more than it hurts them.
One issue I’ve heard is if a restaurant chooses not to use the service someone else can set up a page in their name without permission, and the platforms often won’t do anything to prevent it. Then confused delivery drivers start to show up, and customers complain to the restaurant about the markups/high pricing even when the restaurant is not actually involved at all.
On top of all that, many people just use delivery apps to find local restaurants, so you lose a lot of visibility if you aren’t listed, but for that one you can argue it’s in fact paying for the service you get (i.e. marketing).
Seems to me just specifying that it’s a software recall would be a good balance.
If nothing else though, Argo Tuulik’s blog post for Summer Eternal is worth a read. I love his writing style, and that post is unreasonably funny to me, but you can still tell there is a lot of meaning behind what he says. I suppose things hit hardest when presented in ridiculous over the top metaphor.
A corporation running a nuclear reactor to train AIs might just be the most cyberpunk news headline I’ve ever seen.
Thanks for the BookWyrm recommendation, looks interesting. I have tried LibraryThing before, but it wasn’t quite what I was looking for. I started building my own Goodreads alternative years ago since I couldn’t find anything existing that suited my needs, but unfortunately didn’t ever have the time to properly work on it.
That makes me think having something like “federated communities” could be neat, where a community on one instance could opt in to have content mirrored/visible from a community in another instance. In practice it would be something like subscribing to a community on one instance essentially being equivalent to subscribing to multiple communities on different instances, but if there is disagreement on e.g. moderation practices moderators might decide to “defederate” the communities.
He still claims that’s a 50/50, which makes me think Elon’s 50/50 is about 50% of “Tesla FSD next year”.
