Tesla Robotaxi Day 1: Significant Screw-up

Oops.

To be fair, I don’t think this tells us much about the future of autonomous vehicles, because pretty much everyone with a brain agrees that Tesla is doing it wrong.

Not that I’ll ever ride in one myself.

Almost halfway through the year, I have taken 8,283 photos. 474 (5.7%) of them were good enough (in my not very humble opinion) to work up as wallpaper. I guess if practice makes perfect I should at least be making progress.

“Minaret”

“Hot Day for a Small Bug”

Olympus TG6 @ 16.8mm, f/6.3, 1/400s, ISO 100. I think this is an Obscure Darkling Beetle, which seems like a horrible name to inflict on such a cute little guy.

“Eugene”
