I’m really excited for the future of driverless cars. I think the parking thing will make a huge impact in cities (making them more walkable, safe, and more enjoyable with less street parking, especially in NYC where cars can legally park way too close to the crosswalk). I think it’ll be huge for accessibility for groups that can’t drive their own personal vehicle due to disability, age, finances, or other things. Since I do hope the costs will continue to go down of getting a self driving uber (it should be cheaper than an uber with a driver, because we’re not paying the driver, over time)
Ski travel advice for next year - try Verbier! 4 Vallees is phenomenal, and having skied Verbier literally yesterday, they’ve done a good job at maintaining quality with snow machines. You can also connect to 3 other resorts (hence the “4” vallees) and each of them has great pistes!
I don't knwo when and where I subscribed to this, I almost deleted at after opening to see what this is but I myself glancing scrolling down the ski trip part and then the bottom part grabbed my attention, on "things you are thinking about" and found that part really interesting esp the Waymo experience as it is the first time learning about as I am in South Africa. You'v got a new subscriber, keep em coming!

In Austin, you don't get to choose a Waymo specifically. Your Uber has a chance of being a Waymo.
The moment while Uber searches for a car, and I'm desperately hoping it's a Waymo, is the most tense moment of my day.
