Not very convincingly IMO. There’s also the approach taken by [s3path](https://github.com/liormizr/s3path)

Waymo is already selling rides. How did this area become synonymous with Tesla, who were always likely lying?

Aren’t Waymo already selling rides?

Is there anywhere that has tried this and what happened?

Highway is simpler but it's worse if it goes wrong.

Plus, highway driving is safer and cheaper than average so the bar is higher for self-driving cars/trucks.

I don't think there's any middle ground for driving semi-trucks on the freeway. It's either safe enough to drive without someone watching it or it's not. There's no point in having a person in there sometimes sleeping and sometimes safety-driving.

On the other hand, this kind of bank regulation issue seems right in Warren's wheelhouse and the president might have the power to make this happen through their existing bank regulation powers, or maybe through the CFPB...

Right! Banks are already regulated by the government and this seems like an opportunity for them to improve the retail banking market by requiring interoperation. Maybe it wouldn't work but it would be interesting to hear from him on this topic - can the government make this market work better?

This is the government's job - to make a working market. They should be forcing banks, through their existing bank regulation powers, to allow interoperation.

"Hard time hiring" sometimes means that the candidates cost too much, which would make sense here since we're talking about senior C++ people.

Almost(?) every other developed country has price controls (all payer rate setting) - that's a more general reason why prices are lower.

I find it fascinating that price controls are pretty much the only difference between the US and Japanese models (well, that and price controls eliminate the concept of networks), and the Japanese model costs half what ours does for better and universal care.
