    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    I plan on driving mine in a straight line back to the Bay Area.

    I've seen too many Datelines of this scenario.

    Autonomous Car Progress

    If that is the reason people think you need backup sensors, then fine. But someone is going to come up with a much cheaper backup plan, like mounting an cell phone with camera to the back and allow remote operator to see and control car to get it off the road. This obsession with redundancy...

    OFFICIAL BUTTON WATCH

    Exactly. I'm focused on looking for where the perception system is failing (vs. planning / mapping etc...) because that is the part that is perceived as "limited" by only having cameras. If the perception system is working great, there's no reason Tesla doesn't have the potential to improve the...

    Autonomous Car Progress

    Let's be real. If the cameras begin failing on any of these autonomous cars, they are going to try to pull over to the side of the road and stop. None of these cars are going to keep driving.

    Autonomous Car Progress

    There is a difference between "suboptimal" and "insufficient". Are cameras + deep learning insufficient for handling night / fog / rain / sunlight, or are they just suboptimal?

    Not to belabor this stuff too much, but apparently Elon made a joke response to Ford's CEO (Jim Farley) with a Chris Farley... Who was Jim's cousin...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    At this point, Elon should just stop making estimates for when anything FSD related is actually going to happen.

    Autonomous Car Progress

    The need for sensor fusion comes at some cost when considering the non-linear relationships. This isn't any Kalman filter type sensor fusion. There are many devices which utilize a limited set of sensors because they achieve the needed accuracy. Obviously, Tesla's claims on not needing lidar...

    Yes this describes sensor fusion. I'm just trying to understand Shashua's attempt to make Mobileye's approach distinct vs Waymo / Cruise's approach to sensor fusion.

    Bitcoin, Cryptocurrency and Blockchain Discussion Thread

    Will it be able to generate yield when BTC and others are in a multiyear lull?

    Bitcoin, Cryptocurrency and Blockchain Discussion Thread

    I like Coinbase. It's okay to use. But I am going to follow how correlated it's movements are with bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. If it's highly correlated and Bitcoin reaches what I think will be it's mulityear peak, I might buy some puts.

    Autonomous Car Progress

    Well first off as context I work in areas of both machine learning and signal processing / sensor fusion so I fully understand the general ideas. So maybe he is just trying to dumb it down for explanation purposes, but saying there is an independent LIDAR / RADAR model when it cannot (ever?)...

    Autonomous Car Progress

    Right. So how can there be any claim for an independent LIDAR/RADAR system? Isn't that what Shashua is proposing?

    Autonomous Car Progress

    How do lidar/radar only systems read stoplights?

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    I'm sure true on average, but historical TSLA earnings dates already deviate from this "average" trend. Edit: what they said above

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Is that the show where TSLA goes up and down and up and down, but eventually 10x's values from the previous year? I could live with that.

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    All the propositions basically do this. Claim there is no money to fund XYZ, need new tax base. In actuality XYZ is being funded through the "general fund", and they want to transfer XYZ funding to new proposition to free money in the general fund for new spending on something else. California...

    Almost ready with FSD Beta V9

    Actually I picked it for him (in my previous life). ;)

    I decided I'm going to make my daughters macroni and cheese for lunch. That's probably the reason.

    What other tech stock to consider?

    I believe RIOT essentially trades at a > 2x multiple of BTC price changes.

    Almost ready with FSD Beta V9

    Guess what happens if your vision system becomes really good: You will be able to track the trajectory of the 2nd vehicle ahead through the windshield of the 1st vehicle (when possible). But even when you can't: You will have great precision in tracking velocity and acceleration of the 1st...
