    It's not that there's a single money shot message, it's that the conversation throughout is just stuff that no normal prosecutor would ever say anything but "no comment" about in r…

    Yes, having this many crashes over a period in which they only drove 7000 miles is noticeably worse than human driving.

    People didn't used to expose themselves to as much direct sun and covered themselves with a lot more clothes. Traditional clothing in arid sunny areas typically covers everything, …

    They reported 3 accidents up to July 25 on a fleet of, at the time, 12 cars, doing barely any miles. No data is yet reported for August. The requirement is to report within 5 days,…

    Change it to "Tesla is trying to hide the details of 3 Robotaxi accidents" then. They have reported that accidents happened, and redacted all of what actually happened. It's very c…

    Read the table of examples in the article. Other companies report crashes with significant detail visible to the public that Tesla is redacting. Compare Waymo report: "On [XXX] at …

    It's already clear that there is no possible timeline in which they actually remove safety drivers by the end of the year, it's such a joke. The weird thing is that between the ext…

    It's not just the past empirical observed rate, it's the type of virus it is/other things that we know about it. On top of being structurally a dsDNA virus which doesn't change muc…

    The study is linked early in the article and is fairly dense, the article summarized it well and is a lot more readable. 16/18 are the most carcinogenic strains, they have been clo…

    Also after some research about rate of change: It's extremely slow. HPV is a double-stranded DNA virus with very high replication fidelity. The emergence of types like 16 and 18 ha…

    The total prevalence of all high-risk cases went down in the study, from 46% in the pre-vaccine era to 32% post vaccine. 16/18 were chosen because they are highly carcinogenic and …

    That's because other strains weren't covered by the original vaccines: Strains 16 and 18 were the high risk strains covered in the 2008 roll-out, the roll-out to young girls of the…

    That's the proposer of visual map-based theory, a different explanation for the same things axial twist theory tries to explain. Axial twist is much more recent.
