I too love Good Will Hunting

I’m thinking as well that there’d have to be a significant number of crashes where it’s just the driver in the car (also a chunk of those where there isn’t another car involved). I’d be interested in knowing the # of occupants, and single vehicle stats given Waymo is removing the driver from that equation.

I’m not sure it would change anything and I don’t think the data is being misrepresented - just curious if it would inform my perspective at all.

Comparing Waymo to taxi/uber services would be a direct comparison I’d like to see.

I had to do a double take. I thought your comment might have had an issue with keming…

His reasoning was that a country after a disaster needs its economy to stabilise as rapidly as possible. Yes, he gets a good deal, but he’s also going at a time when local businesses need to trade, people need life to return to normal (as much as possible). Recovering from a tragedy can be helped by the show of faith and confidence of visitors who still want to experience your homeland and all it has to offer. That solidarity is the same concept Princess Diana displayed in her physical embracing of the AIDS community in a time of fear, ignorance, misinformation, and sadness.

My take is that reaching out at a time when people feel alone and unwanted is always a kind gesture.

I can’t comprehend how this can in any way be construed as confusing… or unexpected, surprising, or unanticipated. The discourse vacuum is being filled by right wing misogynists.

Literally just be a vocal presence and the left will increase their ability to be recognised by 1,000%. If 10% of that results in a leftward political shift in the demographic - that will change lives.

Which is why the puppet master is having his marionette lift US sanctions on Russia.
