  • People aren't using Robinhood to invest in index funds via their 401k, they're using it to "day trade" which is just gambling. Nobody is saying that investing = gambling, they're saying that buying and selling shares or options in a single company in order to time the market = gambling.

  • "Possibility" but not an "actuality" since share prices are typically based on the feelings of major investors and not necessarily what's actually happening within a company.

  • Definitely not as well but you can still use them. Cars didn't even have vacuum assisted brakes up into the 1960s and 1970s

  • A vehicle shutting down in the middle of the freeway can easily cause multiple accidents.

  • but the observed pattern does 100% apply to other things.

    Sure, if you retroactively go back and look for patterns where it matches something but that isn't a very useful exercise.

  • There aren't. Mercedes system only works in two states on freeways during the daytime on sunny days at speeds below 40MPH with clearly marked lines and no construction. There are so many qualifiers that it's basically useless outside of the attention grabbing headlines.

  • Which can be a failure in itself when you spend 10 years and tens of billions building something "perfectly" only for it to break on its maiden voyage. That makes you wonder what was the point of doing everything so methodically when they could have taken a more efficient and iterative approach.

  • Do you pronounce "Data" as "Day-ta" or "Dah-ta"?

  • Third-party ECUs are already wildly popular items (Holley Sniper and Terminator along with less popular third-party products).

    Also, your car being an automatic isn't the difficult part of the conversion, having to fabricate the parts to adapt the drivetrain and battery are.

  • They have a $25B yearly budget.

    What is SpaceX spending on R&D? From what I've read, Starship is estimated to cost $10B for development and their R&D budget for 2023 was $1.5B. If NASA was going to build something similar themselves, they've had nearly 70 years and hundreds of billions to accomplish it.

    In reality their budget goes toward companies like Boeing, Northrop Grummon, and Lockheed Martin, who then pocket it and build substandard equipment. This is all public information so I can't imagine why people are downvoting other than being extremely emotional for some inexplicable reason.

  • NASA farms these out to outside companies to build anyway, as seen with the latest Boeing space fiasco, so I don't necessarily believe this to be true. These defense contractors seem to be interested in little more than milking the US government for all they're worth.
