It wasn't the coverup of the crash. It's the fact that they massively exaggerated their capabilities.

For example, the reason they started with night trips was that their car could not differentiate between kids and adults so they preferred to start operation when kids are less likely to be presetn.

Not that they've told anyone about it.

These are all Waymo's narratives, carefully written. Not the objective truth.

There will eventually be a serious or fatal crash and the investigation will shed light on what's happening inside. That will be the real test.

Cruise collapsed the moment they were involved in a single serious crash. It collapsed because we suddenly found out how the company was actually run.

Isn't that a non-denial denial?

> Punishing people a decade after the fact isn't very effective for anything.

It sends a very clear message: even if it takes a decade, we will find you and punish you.

That's pathetic.

How did he agree to be a co-author when "he never had access to the data for any of the studies"?

If true, that means the groups are different in many other aspects other than the vaccine.

The study does not control for the differences. No causality can be inferred.

So what you're saying is that they are comparing two distinct self-selected populations that differ in many other aspects than just taking the vaccine.

Why would you ascribe any difference to the vaccine rather to any other difference between the groups?

You're basically saying that the study compares two distinct populations that differ in many other aspects rather than just by vaccine.

Why then do you ascribe the difference in mortality to the vaccine?

In your flying car, no less.

I was working in customer support for one of the first ISPs in my country when the switch from Windows 3.1 to Windows 95 happened.

Windows 95 was a massive jump in usability.

Regular people simply do no understand the overlapping windows metaphor. When a windows disappears behind another they are often completely helpless. The taskbar was a life saver.

Nothing in the study actually supports the claim in the headline and much of the text, though.
