My mom spent years driving a blind man to work. He was a gifted pianist, performing in bars, lounges, and restaurants. Despite his talent, getting around meant relying on public taxis or the generosity of friends like my mom. She wasn't paid to do it— she simply cared. That's why Robotaxi matters. For millions of people who cannot see, it represents something most of us take for granted: the freedom to travel independently, on their own schedule, without asking someone else for a ride. And this is only the beginning. With unsupervised FSD, many of those same people could one day own a vehicle of their own. There is an entire community of capable, talented people who would gladly trade the inconvenience of depending on others for the inconvenience of making a monthly car payment. That's not just a technological advance. It's a profound expansion of personal freedom.
Cybercab at the National Federation of the Blind's Annual Convention in Austin for a hands-on experience of its accessibility features for blind or visually impaired customers

For example:
– Braille lettering on physical controls – Space for service animals & assistive devices – Wheelchair-height seating for easier transfers

When I think of Boom, I think of innovation. I think of American ingenuity. I think of optimism ahead. I think of a nation of builders and makers. Happy birthday USA. The land of opportunity. 🇺🇸
It’s easy to be nostalgic for a past we imagine was better than today. But if I had a choice of where and when to live, I’d choose America—in her future. There is much left to build and much left to liberate. Let’s leave this great country better than we found it.

Happy 4th everyone! @CernBasher and I dressed up for the birthday celebration. 🇺🇸 We certainly had a wide-ranging discussion on Tesla and SpaceX. 1:17:00 ... is Elon building a phone? Why the WSJ story may have legs or at least a few appendages attached to the truth. 1:45:15 is a good discussion on the memory supply crunch and the need for Terafab.

OK someone's fucking with the market today on $TSLA. I have a feeling actual earnings will be off the charts. Bought some today while the market manipulation does its thing.

We don't yet know the driver's motive. But if, for a moment, we assume the driver is trying to blame this on Tesla Autopilot or FSD, I'd say good luck with that. Tesla has an enormous amount of data from before, during, and after the crash. That data is stored locally on the vehicle and, if the telemetry system remains operational, transmitted to Tesla's data centers. The NTSB also has access to the relevant vehicle data. The record includes footage from all eight exterior cameras, along with thousands of vehicle "signals" generated by the car's various ECUs. Those signals include accelerator pedal position, steering inputs, brake application, vehicle speed, system state, driver interactions, and much more. Many of these signals are recorded at high frequency— often dozens of times per second— allowing investigators to reconstruct, in remarkable detail, what both the vehicle and the driver were doing leading up to the crash. You couldn't pick a worse system on which to base a false claim. If the evidence contradicts the driver's account, the data will show it.
Tesla driver charged with manslaughter. Driver Michael Butler says his Tesla was on Autopilot. The manslaughter charge means prosecutors believe Butler was responsible for the death through his driving (or failure to properly supervise/override the system), consistent with Tesla’s data showing he was actively accelerating hard. No motive has been alleged or reported. The case is still developing with investigations ongoing. Tesla strongly disputes that the system was in control. Their VP of AI software (Ashok Elluswamy) stated publicly that telemetry data shows Butler manually overrode any self-driving features by pressing the accelerator pedal to 100% in a residential area, reaching speeds around 73 mph, and kept the pedal pressed even after the impact. Pressing the accelerator is a known driver override in both Autopilot and FSD. fox26houston.com/news/katy-t…
