> According to that article, Waymo crashes 2.3x more often than human drivers (every 98k miles vs 229k miles), which is clearly false.

Why is it clearly false? It might be false, but clearly? I would definitely like to see evidence either way.

> I think it's far more likely that humans don't report most minor collisions to insurance, and that both Robotaxis and Waymo are safer than human drivers on average.

That sounds like you are trying to find reasons to get the conclusion you want.

I can just give you my view. I've been a TWM user for >10 years than switched to niri via some of the sway/hype land scrolling plugins.

My problem with TWMs was always that depending on monitor size you can open 3-4 windows in a set layout (be it the tradional spirals, or H splits...) before you have to do "manual" window management (i.e. move windows into tabbed layouts, move them to new workspaces,...). So for me that generated a friction, where sometimes I just wanted e.g. to quickly open a terminal do some things but keep the rest the same, but not knowing if the terminal becomes permanent. I other words in TWMs I found myself having to know what exactly I want the window for all the time.

SWMs get rid of that friction, I just open a new window and it gets pushed to the right, while keeping windows at the perfect size and if not I can easily switch between the 3 sizes I want (never found I needed more than fullscreen half screen, third of the screen). So I simply don't have to think what I want the e.g. terminal for (something long term or just quick try) before I use it. While it sometimes makes finding the right window a little more messy (the overview really helps though), I find I end up more organised, because I keep related windows in the same workspace, while on TWMs I ended up with 3 or 4 workspaces just for temporary terminals (which made finding the right one often very messy as well).

That's not really true. There's lots of research out there showing that waxed chains result in less power loss over longer time compared to no lubrication and most other lubricants (both bicycle specific ones and more general ones). Now waxing your chain is admittedly annoying, but it does work.

Your link actually proves the OP right and you wrong. Look at the graph of the running average of GDP and you see that after a huge spike in the 40s (due to the WW2 effort) GDP growth settles on a new higher average (with significantly less fluctuation).
