Recommended Posts

So a nephew (I have several different nephews from different sisters), just landed a paid work co-op /internship placement …..in San Francisco. He will be part of team working on software for driverless car.  Man, what a lucky Canadian young man from Toronto...he probably has to work lots.  Cheap labour for the firm.

He'll be there for 4 months.  He is majoring mechantronics….it is an engineering discipline at 1 of the universities:  blend of mechanical engineering and robotics.

If you write code, sooner or later you will make a mistake.

It really always ends up being "more or less often than the alternative".  The dude in the Tesla crashing into the side of a semi is a good case.  All the details not fully sussed out and developed around yet, BUT we ought to have some pretty good stats by now on whether a car like a Tesla has more or less various issues than a comparable non-semi-autonomous vehicle.  Stats will bear stuff out over time.
