In 2022, Elon Musk made a gamble that rattled his top engineers. The
Tesla CEO scrapped the ultrasonic sensors that helped power the
company's self-driving technology, and its vehicles began relying
entirely on cameras.No other self-driving car company had attempted
anything like it. Complicating matters was the recent departure of
Andrej Karpathy, Tesla's director of AI at the time. That left Ashok
Elluswamy, then Tesla's head of Autopilot software, to carry out one
of Musk's biggest bets.

explained to the baby's mother that I planned to order
acetaminophen--commonly sold over the counter as Tylenol--every six
hours, because the baby had an obvious source of pain. If pain still
kept the baby from eating, sleeping, or calming down, the mother could
ask for an opioid. I was just leaving the room when the mother stopped
me to ask about the acetaminophen."Doesn't it cause autism?" she said.

The Trump plan for Gaza deserves praise - The Economist

[[link removed]}&lead=419599&emailid=239800&nl=daily]
September 29TH President Donald Trump stood with Binyamin Netanyahu,
Israel's prime minister, and set out a 20-point plan for "eternal
peace" in Gaza. It is tempting to be dismissive. Although the
hyperbole was exceptional, it is hardly the first peace plan since the
war began in 2023. And while the talk continues, the horror in Gaza
persists. Yet dismissal would be a mistake (see Middle East & Africa
section). This proposal is a milestone because it sets parameters for
a way out of the nightmare and marks a change in the positions of
America and Israel, and, just possibly, Hamas.
