This isn’t a bug. It’s a feature.

New technology has never started out quirky and gotten better over time.

ETA: OP edited his original post. Such a pussy to not take responsibility for what he originally said.

Hey dum dum, I didn’t say it. The source I used said it, you took it literally.

I found a better source.

Why did you change it then?

Just own it pussy. Or quit posting shitty sources and quoting them.

Found a better source with more information.

Didn’t proof read my original source. Was honestly confused by what you were referencing with the millions of Waymo’s talk. Didn’t realize that was in the original source

So to put your original post of "millions without power" into context. San Franscisco doesn't even have a million residents.

Im sure there is some "well technically" rebuttal

A well deserved

In NOLA, we’d have this outage for the middle of a Super Bowl in the Superdome.

In Nola dindus would carjack those Waymos and clear traffic in no time.

Why wouldn’t they program them to park or move to the side of the road. Weird that they would just sit in traffic and block the roads.

I'm sure it's being fixed are already fixed. Truth is most people driving screw up how to handle power outages at traffic lights. I've seen people blow through them at full speed

Reminds me of the total clusterfrick in Norway whenever the city of Oslo spent over $4 million to electrify their buses, and they had a cold snap none of them worked.

They didn’t run any tests the previous winter, they just took the private company’s word for it that everything would be just fine

Yea this isn't really that big of a deal. A unique edge case just occurred and now the waymo team will use this to improve their algos.

Autonomous vehicles are going to completely change the world for the better:

Less deaths
Less traffic
Easier travel
Better infrastructure

It will probably be humanities best leap forward in the last thirty years
