Tesla Found Partly Liable in 2019 Autopilot Death

news.ycombinator.com Aarian Marshall 2025-12-29 20:16:15

A Miami jury found Tesla partially liable Friday in a 2019 crash that killed one person and injured another—all while the driver of the Model S used the automaker’s Autopilot driver assistance feature. The jury found Tesla liable for $200 million in punitive damages, plus an additional $43 million in compensatory damages. (Because of state laws, the company will likely end up paying less.) A jury found the automaker one-third responsible for the crash; it found the driver of the Tesla, who sett

11 Best Coolers WIRED Tested for Every Budget, Any Situation (2025)

wired.com Louryn Strampe 2025-12-29 20:04:00

All the coolers we've recommend above are capable of holding things at a safe temperature for a day, provided you keep them in the shade. Similarly, if you're navigating rugged terrain, you might want beefy wheels—and if you're just going to the beach, you might not need them. Hard-sided coolers: These range from the

Peak Energy just shipped the US's first grid-scale sodium-ion battery

Peak Energy shipped out its first sodium-ion battery energy storage system, and the New York-based company says it’s achieved a first in three ways: the US’s first grid-scale sodium-ion battery storage system; the largest sodium-ion phosphate pyrophosphate (NFPP) battery system in the world; and the first megawatt-hour scale battery to run entirely on passive cooling – no fans, pumps, or vents. That’s significant because removing moving parts and ditching active cooling systems eliminates fire
