yeah that's true, Program Think also served as the chief engineer for the information security system of the 2008 Beijing Olympics. It's disheartening that I can't do much to help him, but I'll do what I can to raise awareness about his situation and ensure more people know about him."

When filing a lawsuit, it’s smart to file it against every party even slightly involved and let the judge or jury determine fault. That’s just how it’s done.

Making bets on someone's mental health is reprehensible.

The made-in-China cars were already lauded for superior fit and finish compared to Fremont-built cars.
It's not that surprising as Chinese workers have proven that if you give them the right blueprint and pay them enough, they are more than capable of building high quality products. Made-in-China is no longer the guarantee of low quality it used to be, especially as Chinese factories become increasingly automated.

Apple likely isn’t in control of what the front of the store looks like if it isn’t part of their actual store wall. That would be the mall property owner.

I own a 2019 Model 3. Love EVs, will never go back to ICE, but holy fuck Tesla is absolute garbage in build quality.
I don't expect Rolls Royce fit and finish but when spending $50k+ I think it's perfectly reasonable to at least have something comparable to a Toyota Corolla.
Kia EV6 is on order with a long-ass wait. In the meantime I'm still driving this overpriced POS which rattles loudly from the back seat even on freshly repaved roads.

Worse. I own a 2019 Model 3 and hope to replace it this year with a non-Tesla EV.
Their software updates often have infuriating UX changes that Elon tries to justify by saying shit like "all input is error" only to backpedal amid growing dissatisfaction. And they trumpet the most worthless shit with so much fanfare like it's the greatest thing since sliced bread.
E.g. in Dec 2021 the V11 update came with the asinine decision to remove quick-toggles for the defroster and heated seats, requiring one extra menu layer to be brought up first. Took a few more months before the toggles were added back but who the fuck signed off on their removal in the first place?
Meanwhile the LTE modem can take 5-10 minutes to reconnect after leaving a dead zone like an underground garage (which cripples the GPS functionality), while all my phones reconnect in milliseconds. Still no fix for that. I literally have to turn on my phone hotspot every time I get in the car to ensure the nav will work properly.
The auto wipers are also the worst in the entire industry - still no fix to at least let me toggle a default minimum speed.
But hey, I now have Disney Plus and stupid touchscreen games in the infotainment system and the car can perform light shows on demand! OMG! Greatest car ever made!

Calculus of Negligence/ Learned Hand rule. If the burden/cost of taking precautions is less than the severity of the harm times the probability of the harm occurring and you don't take those precautions (PL>B), you've breached your duty and may be held liable for negligence.
Edit: confused as to the downvotes. It’s a real thing that US courts use. It’s taught in law school torts 1 classes as basically one of the 1st things law students learn.

Being local to where the crash happened, Hingham, MA is a very affluent and litigious community. You bet your ass those people are going to sue. They have laws about what color Christmas lights you can use on the Main Street.

I can see that. Seems like it doesn't matter what group you belong to, they just want to feel like they are better than whichever group its time to gang up on.
Thanks for the conversation. Pretty rare to have one like this without it devolving into something toxic.

Man that's messed up. But what else can I expect from China. Fall in line or go to prison.

I'm from the South and I an attest that even rural areas have some melting pot that happens. The majority don't care about immigrates. A few do violence to them (getting to be less and less every year). The problem that continues to plague these Southern states is they still want a caste system with themselves above someone else. So all that happens is anyone with means leaves the state as soon as they can while the worst people get to continue trying to directly/indirectly enforce the caste system they have imagined.
