Non-clickbait title: Teslas running Autopilot have been in 0.0000273 crashes/km in less than a year!

I've been alive long enough to see a considerable sample set of human drivers and I've got to say the bar Autopilot needs to exceed in order to save limb and life is incredibly low. Couple that with the fact that just here in SoCal Tesla has become a common sight, 273 crashes sounds like a hell of a lot of human suffering was avoided.

As I've used slack over the last 5 years I've come to the conclusion that they have a quality problem of some sort. The software just behaves weird, especially in the voice and screen sharing areas.

It seems like their management runs the "quality via escalation" anti-pattern.

Digg was still relatively niche. Reddit is on a whole other scale. Did anyone over 40 even know of digg? Plus they committed suicide.

Reddit's new UI is a decent first step down that road.

My grandfather, who I respected very much, was an accomplished career bureaucrat and considered any sort of promotion beneath him, and for sure crafting clickbait would earn his scorn. Thus marketing, promotion and crafting clickbait goes against everything I come from.

But, making something that I think will actually help people, and then watching it go unseen because I wouldn't do the thing required to spread the message via the network effect is a far worse fate.

So, I do the thing.
