Toyota's Unintended Acceleration

Fascinating, thanks.

Whether these bugs are real or not and no matter who "wins" this eventually, Toyota and others should already have learned a lesson the hard way: every time human life is at stake legal costs alone far outweigh any development cost saved by sloppy programming. While a rather low bar it's still a somewhat "good" bit of news.

People cope with getting screwed over again and again by $BIGCORP and the 0.1% but funny enough there's always this line that you really can't cross: they don't like to... die.

Now rebooting my smartphone to work around some memory leak and other random issues...
